BOOK II: THEIR STUDIES In Book II we shall describe our studies. We cannot, however, put into mere words the friendly and cooperative spirit of both teachers and students at Paxton Community High. Courses of study are offered in English, science, mathematics, Latin, French, history, agriculture, manual training, domestic science, and commerce. Requirements for graduation include 4 years of English, 2 years of science, 2 years of mathematics and 2 years of history. Also either 2 majors and 2 minors, or 3 majors are required in the 4 years of work. A major consists of at least 3 years of study in one field, and a minor at least 2 years. Study in a foreign language is also required unless an excuse is obtained from your parents. The school year is divided into 2 semesters; each semester is in turn divided into 3 six-weeks periods. Grade cards are issued at the end of each six-weeks, and grading is made by letters. School hours are from 8:30 a. m. to 11:57 in the morning and from 1:00 p. m. to 3:04 in the afternoon. The school day is divided into 8 forty-minute periods, 4 of which are devoted to recitation classes and the other 4 to study halls, laboratory work, or extra activities. In addition there is a ninth period after school in the afternoon, which is devoted to such activities as Drama Club, the High School Record, Art Club, and Girl’s Glee Club.

FRESHMEN The freshmen, entering school as “green freshies,” have now become accustomed to the school routine. With Miss Gracen’s and Mr. Bidner’s help, they organized and began to take an active part in school life. They elected Dwain Parker, President; Billy Smith, Vice-President; Barbara Thilmony, Treasurer; and Juanita Easterling, Secretary. Their representatives to Student Council were Buddy Turner and Mary Elizabeth Eagan. A freshman boy, Murrell Fancher, was a varsity cheerleader.
