Weekes, Vice-President Board of Education ENGLISH IS A MUST FOR COLLEGE ENTRANCE YVONNE JONES ELLEN ALBER English Languages Nebraska City extends to their students a variety of courses which include: business, general, college preparatory, and industrial. These courses and studies instruct and prepare students for a useful, prosperous, and happy life in the years to come. The English department strides to aid the student in perfecting English fundamentals necessary in gaining sufficient knowledge for all scholastic fields. The freshmen gain knowledge through composition and reading skills. Training in Speech and Journalism is available for the sophomores. Juniors explore the American and English classics. Seniors planning to attend college polish their English with a college preparatory course. Those not planning to go on to school may enroll in business English to prepare them for their careers in that field.

MUSIC AND GUIDANCE ROUND OUT OUR PERSONALITIES Our guidance department is one of the best. Standard preference and occupational tests help students pLanfor the future. This begins in ninth grade with orientation and continues throughout high school. Seniors have individual conferences with Doris McGaffey, director of this valued department. Music is chosenas an extra-curricular activity by almost half of our students. For freshman band and glee clubs are available. In the sophomore year choir, inner choir, madrigals, and small groups are added for those interested. Small groups in both band and choir complete these activities.

Plane geometry creates an appreciation of geometric forms in nature and industry. Algebra teaches the use and value of math in business and scientific fields. The science department offers a study course designed to acquaint students with the structure of our world--organic and inorganic. Weekly laboratory periods allow time for the application of classroom knowledge by performing experiments requiring adeptness in handling scientific equipment.
