-wdtiom school was laid to provide for the increasing student body, and the first classes were held in 1929. This modern high school, today offering six courses taught by fifty teachers, has an auditor- ium, a gymnasium, a library now containing approximately 9,400 volumes, a well-furnished homemaking department, sci- ence laboratories, and class- rooms. Other features of the school are the Alumni Field, school farm, cafeteria, macadarnized play area, three playgrounds, and vocational wood, metal, and in- dustrial arts shops, each equip- ped with modern machinery. The building of a new and more modern high school is al- ready in progress. Quakertown High School of today and Quakertown Community High School of tomorrow form an im- pressive contrast to the four- room schoolhouse with the pot- bellied stove, the strict school- master, the hickory stick, and the slates of the first Quaker- town public school.
