I MUM The general curriculum is offered chiefly to students who, when entering high school, are undecided about their future job or posi- tion. Pupils may transfer to other curricu- lums provided their marks are satisfactory. A student, who remains in this curri- culum, selects subjects which should pre- pare him for some special job upon gradua- ation. The student has a long list of electives from which he may prepare his yearly schedules. Mathematics and science may be chosen by a student who is considering col- lege. INDUSTRIAL ARTS The industrial arts curriculum is strongly vocational. This course is for students who are interested in mechanical work. How- ever, certain academic subjects are required, namely: English, four years; United States History, two years; general science, one year; and physical education and health, four years. Wood shop, metal shop and drafting are the basic courses in this curriculum. Practical and applied mathematics have a part in the industrial arts program. The metal and wood shops are suffi- ciently equipped for instructional purposes. 28
