In English I the freshmen studied Romeo and Juliet. They were also kept busy during the holiday season writing children’s stories. The English II classes were introduced into the widely read novel of The Diary of Anne Frank. English III read The Scarlet Letter and Huckleberry Finn, and were kept busy writing research papers and adventure stories. English IV studied English Literature, Uncle Tom's Cabin, and MacBeth.

Rachel Bralcher demonstrates how to sew on a button in speech class. Lori Mooningham expresses herself in English class. A Little About A Lot Mrs. Wilcoxen askes, “If you have alot of something, do you have abunch too?’’ She seems to have spent a lifetime lighting these two little words, a lot. When these two little words are put together they make a four letter word. We know how much trouble four letter words get us into, especially in Mrs. Wilcoxen’s classes. The correct spelling is a lot” for those of you who didn't know, or slept through Mrs. Wilcoxen’s English classes. Mr. Kehres seemed to have had alot” of kittens for sale at one time, and Mrs. Wil- coxen wanted to know if he had “abunch” for sale too. Kim Payne demonstrates how to construct a model in speech class. Shayne Morris contemplates his English.
