Northwood took steps in a number of other areas. A no- ticeable improvement in the facili- ties came with the completion of the football field and fieldhouse. With Mr. Burke accepting the role of new principal the school was fortunate to receive a man sympa- thetic with the needs of all students and faculty members. His willingness to assist in any manner possible opened the lines of communication between the administration and student body. In an unprecedented move the English department added a male member to its staff. Not only did this bring variety, it also in- creased the ability of the depart- ment to serve students on all levels. Northwood is now under con- sideration for accreditation by the Southern Association of Second- ary Schools and Colleges. The steps toward betterment which the school took this year should prove expedient in helping it achieve this distinction.

Northwood expands curriculum Striving to provide an atmo- sphere conducive to learning is a goal common to all schools. Since its establishment. Northwood has instituted many changes for bet- terment on its way to achieving this goal. The changes occuring in 1975-76 combined to take Northwood ANOTHER STEP FOR- WARD. The addition of semester courses widened and provided variety in the curriculum this year. Giving students the freedom to plan their schedules according to their individual interests in- creased incentive. A changeover in classes at midyear offered vari- ation in dull schedules. Northwood had the benefit of two specially funded programs this year. Project Entice provided full-time classes in Creative Dance and Drama and gave the school a unique distinction. Northwood was the only high school in North Carolina whose curriculum included full-time classes in both areas. The major objective of the program was to increase the student’s creativity and to provide the school with more high-interest elective courses. As a result of its efforts the dance class presented several programs to the student body during the year, one being “Dance Macabre'' at Halloween. In its first production of the year, the drama class held an evening of cabaret entertainment. In the spring the class presented the school's first musical, “Music Man. The purpose of the English En- richment Program, another spe- cially funded project, was to challenge exceptional and tal- ented students. The basis used to select participants in the class was their performance on a test of reading abilities administered pe- riodically throughout the year.
