THE OAKFIELD HIGH SCHOOL. The Oakfield High School is pleasantly situated in the village of Oakfield, which enjoys the advantages of rural life and also, to a great extent those of city life, due to its nearness to the city of Fond du Lac. Its location makes it an ideal place for a student to spend his high school days in to the best advantage. With the year 1911 is added one more successful year’s work to the already good record the school has ever made for itself. So far have the efforts of the teaching force and student body been successful the past year, that in February the school was found in every way deserving of a place upon the accredited list of high schools of the State University at Madison. Hereafter, no graduate from this school shall have to pass a special examination for entrance to the University, as has been the case formerly, but may, upon simply presenting his Diploma, be admitted without further question. Oakfield is now truly on a par with the best high schools in the state and no student need hesitate to take his high school course here for fear that he may not receive due recognition and credit at its completion. The school does not belong to the so-called “Township High Schools,” but the courses it offers are being adjusted to meet all the needs of the farming community round about. The past year a course in Advanced Agriculture has been added which will be made more and more vitally practical as time goes on. And in keeping with the trend of the times it is hoped that the school may soon add a Manual Training and Domestic Science Department. With a school board efficient, enthusiastic, progressive and a corps of teachers professionally trained, of successful experience and carefully selected for their special fitness, the Oakfield High School possesses facilities for offering a splendid course to the student about to enter high school, and gives him all the advantages without the disadvantages of a large high school.
