Ellyn Hnirr A Message to the Graduates Charles W. Clark, Director The close of another school year marks the completion of the vocational training program, in the several courses represented, of the class of June, 1932. Marked by a busi- ness depression of considerable severity and a great deal of unemployment, they have not been years of unemployment for the senior class. The school program, though somewhat curtailed, it is true, in a reduced budget, has continued with the same objec- tive in view, the vocational fitness of each individual. Each teacher has kept before him continually the thought that for our students the qualifications for relatively early en- trancerinto employment are of major import- ance, and the school courses have been con- stantly improved to make the preparatory training of greatest value to each student. The years have been marked by many in- stances which will be remembered by your friends, the faculty, very pleasantly and there is always the regret that We must sever the ties. We shall follow you as you Jnmmence your life program, your very suc- cess will give us joy and our resources are still yours to repair the damage of any fail- ure. One advantage of our school organiza- tion is its flexibilityg We are able to enroll for special courses and short courses any who need help within the offerings of the school. We realize that the outlook for placement R1 in employment is not very good at present and we are glad to be able to invite you back in a body for the 12th year. Next September for the first time, We shall include the full senior high school program With 12th year English, Economics, Salesmanship, Commer- cial Law and other courses not now part of our program. In the commercial department opportunity is thus providedgifor acquiring the same course offered in the other high schools though We shall continue our two- year short courses as well. In the industrial department in addition a chance for more extended shop Work is provided. In any course it will no longer be necessary to trans- fer to another high school and become ad- justed to a different program as our former graduates have had to do, in order to acquire a 12th year diploma. We still have the same quarters, divided, antiquated, ill-adapted to our Work. On the other hand We have made progress and to 2 large extent with your help. Your apprecia- tion of the benefit to you of the Vocational High School program will make it increas- ingly appealing to those students who come after you to benefit by the same instruction. We have enjoyed having you with us, we shall be glad to aid those who leave us, in every Way we can and We will welcome the return of any who can spend another year with us. 9 IM..
