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.
