This book, which our classmates will consider their annual scrapbook, shows the highlights of four of the brightest years in a students life. To a Freshman, it marks the beginning of this festive period. To a Senior, in future years, a yearbook is a remainder to look back and remember all the experiences, sad or laughable, of his last year. Therefore, a yearbook can be truly called a harvest—of all the plans, dreams and hopes of our students—A HARVEST OF GOLDEN MEMORIES. A Hanve t ofc Qolden YYlemonie ■ English and Language ane citizenship, musts Our Nebraska City High School offers several different courses to students with varied interests. The courses are business, general, college preparatory, and industrial . These courses and studies give our students knowledge, experience and a better idea of what they will be doing in society ten years from now. Experienced and qualified teachers are needed to give our youth of today a better education because as years go by it becomes more and more evident that one can not go very far in any vocation without a high school diploma. We believe our curriculum gives a student a well-rounded and full knowledge of the problems, ideas and experiences which he will need in his life in the future Our high school offers a complete course in Latin I and II and also in Spanish I and II. English is essential in everyone's life. To be able to speak, write and read correctly are the goals of the students through their three years of English and Grammar. Freshmen polish their reading and writing in composition and reading skills. Seniors review the fundamentals in college prep and those who are already planning a vocation right out of high school or are interested in speaking and writing better as business men and women take business English. Beginning speech isa requirement for sophomores and if they feel a need for more extensive practice or that they enjoy speaking and would like to continueand perhaps receive some play experience they may take advanced speech second semester. Debate is also offered throughout high school. The juniors are not omitted from this English cycle as they learn to read and to interpret some of the great works of English and American authors in junior literature. LOWER LEFT: Practical English is enjoyed by the students. Are these Romans? BELOW: High school voters voicing their choice in county government. Hirtonif and math a le important ton all Further practice of correct spelling and punctuation can be obtained in the highschool journalism course which you may enter second semester of your sophomore year. You may continue your newspaper ana English experience by taking journalism in your junior and senior years also. Any senior may work on the yearbook regardless of previous experience. Ninth graders become acquainted with our local, county, state and national governments by gaining a better and broader knowledge of these various governments. World history takes the sophomore from the beginning of civilization right to our present day international problems. Eleventh graders learn through American history how our government grew politically, economically and socially. Seniors study the problems of the American government and other nations working together in international relations and also the various departments of the Federal government. Through these studies we hope to develope better citizens and better thinking Americans. Algebra is the study of formulas and equations and is the basis for the advance study of mathematics. Geometry is offered to any high school student and any elementary algebra student with a three average or above can take advanced algebra. To right two seniors look over opportunities of scholarship and colleges. Below Louis Huff and Lynn Letellier try to solve the equality of angles. A general math class, math essentials, is provided for those students not caring for a specific mathematics course. Our guidance instructor will give help and guidance to any student who faces either a personal or sc ho I ast i c problem during the school year. She will also give advice concern! ng a vocation or a col I ege of your choice. During your senior year a vocational course is given for one quarter to help students select a vocation to which they are most adapted. Where in the world? We uae oun handa in H'm--smells good home ec and hop An increasing majority of American women are now going out of the home to work and it has become important forthemto combine both a pleasant domestic life and a career. The teaching of home economics in high school has become almost a must in every girl's life. The arts of homemaking, as cooking and sewing, are offered to freshmen girls and all other girls who are interested in gaining experience in homemaking either as a vocation or so that they may become better homemakers in the future. With the mechanical age already here industry needs new ideas and experienced workers to fulfill the demands of the gadget minded people. Boys interested in industrial arts or a vocation along the mechanical line can obtain an unlimited knowledge of crafts -manshi p and ski 11 by taki ng either woodworki ng or metal shop. Freshmen boys are required to take shop but the older boys find the experience and enjoyment of creating things with their hands of value. Mechanical drawing is useful in certain industrial purposes and to those interested in design and architecture. To left William Vacek is busy teaching the boys in metal shop. Below Larry Hasty and Glen Grafe are working busily on their projects in the general shop. Don't prick your finger Budding, acientiitA. olmebve would abound ud Count your grams As science becomes more important in our I ives there is a greater need for scientists and those who are interested in science. General science in the ninth grade begins any student'sscience course. Sophomores find the study of all living things quite interesting in biology. Physics, the scientific study of the physical happenings in the world, seems to be the haydayfor boys and girls interested in what makes things tick and those interested in engineering or similar vocation. Chemistry, the study of the composition of matter and the changes it undergoes, is offered to any twelfth grade student. These students study formulas and work like chemists on their weekly experiments. One of the many goals of vocational agriculture is to experience and train the present and prospective farmer to be more proficient in his farming. In our farming community in this agricultural section of America, farming is necessary for our livelihood and experience is essential, so our high school, offers this instruction for four years. LOWER RIGHT: Two ag boys working hard at welding. BELOW: Senior chemists try their hand at distilling water. Oh-they wiggle Practical skills leanned in these clause a Nothing like good exercise To minimize the accidents of teenagers, Nebraska City offers a driver's education program. This course, taken one semester, is open to any student who will be 16 during the semester or is already 16 and desires a better knowledge of driving. It has been proven that students having taken this course do have fewer accidents. Boy's and girl's gym is required for all freshmen. This course gives exercise, stimulates health and helps show students the need for good sportsmanship and fair play in every thing they do. A freshmen health class is also given to helpstudents gain a better knowledge of what to do in case of an emergency and the practices that they should use to enable themselves to become more physically fit. Business has always been the basis to American economy and free enterprize has helped our democratic form of government. Teaching young people the p r i n c i p I e s of business and showing them how to operate is most important. Today's youth will manage the industries of the coming generations and it will be their responsibility to make them sound and secure. High school training in any phase of business will help the student. To left students give helpful criticism and finishing touches to a speech. Below journalists work hard to publish the high school paper. machinea help, tnain studenta fion buiinenn Any student wanting a business education may take a variety of courses. Students wishing to become efficient as secretaries may gain practice in shorthand land II. Office practice, which gives the students practice of actual situations, is offered in the twelfth grade. Typing I and II also are available. Those students interested in just learning to type for their own personal advantage may take personal typing for one semester. Bookkeeping, which secretaries find important in office work, is given for one semester in our high school. No better training could be given any high school student than that of on the joD training. Seniors are eligible to work in the afternoons and on Saturdays after a half day of school. This trade ana industries program is proving to be most successful in helping stude nts find their vocational choice. Even though these students get up earlier than most and are in class by 8 o'clock they find that their experience is very valuable. The youth of today faces many problems and there will be much to face in the future. A good education will help the individual gain experience in expressing himself in differences of opinion and help him to make careful, logical decisions.
