WALTER W. BONNER Department Head In an era which stresses practical, scientific, and materialistic concepts, the values import- ant in the teaching of English must also be given recognition. Directly or indirectly the department of English tried to develop in students skills and capacities aimed at achieving the following goals: (1) to perfect oral and written communication through grammatical and rhetorical training; (2) to develop a set of appreciations of things and values which are beautiful; (3) to form critical attitudes toward literary or everyday communication; (4) to encourage clear, logical thinking; and (5) to build a set of sane and sensible values. To achieve orderly progress there is close correlation of Junior and Senior High School English activity, through the Department Head. ‘The learning experiences are all aimed at successful preparation for further education or for life. Because reading ability is vital to success in many other fields, high school students who need help are provided with a reading laboratory, designed to increase speed and under- standing. A special Developmental Reading Program will be installed in the three junior high schools next year. JULIA E. BARRY MARION B. BENTLEY JUDITH M. BOLTON DOROTHY E. CASTALDO
