Mrs. Fulvia Garruto French, Spainsh Foreign Languages In this past year our Language Department has taken a giant step forward. Red Bank High School now offers a four-year course of study in Latin and three-year courses in French, German and Spanish. The advent of the three year language course is of special value to the students who plan to go on to college. If a student takes advantage of this program, it is possible for him to take only one year of a language in college if a language is required. Formally, the student would have had to take two years of a language in college. These courses not only give the student a firm founda- tion in grammar but also acquaint him with the history and the customs of the countries in which that language is spoken.

lectures to an attentive English class. Miss Elizabeth Nicholson Mr. Robert Olshan Mrs. Valance Tunstall Librarian Miss Marie O’Connor Mr. Herbert Reed, Jr. Mr. Donald Slaven The ability to use the language arts effectively is the framework of our English curriculum. Our English Department has not only concerned itself with the basic skills of listening, speaking, read- ing and writing but has concentrated on develop- ing our knowledge of functional grammar, oral reports and debates. Further attention is given to American and English writers and their contributions to Litera- ture. Frequent testing indicates the power of the student to comprehend, summarize and evaluate their writings. English Literature, American Literature, Jour- nalism, Remedial Reading and Public Speaking are all included in the comprehensive itinerary of Red Bank's English Department. This year, a program of six pictures was shown throughout the year in the auditorium. These films illustrated the descriptive techniques and the analyses of many fine authors and stories. In this way, we added a new medium of visual aids to our excellent department. 15

Mr. Howard Brown Consumer Education Business Education Since experience far surpasses a verbal description, Red Bank's Distributive Edu- cation classes went on many trips to see for themselves the techniques and principles of the work-a-day world. For example, trips were made to New York University, various large department stores, advertising agen- cies and Broadway Plays. These exemplified theories that were taught in class. Seniors wrere given an opportunity to gain practical on-the-job experience in various commercial enterprises. In addition students were thoroughly grounded in such business essentials as typing, shorthand and bookkeep- ing so that they would easily take their places in the business world.
