gr-ws , V , ., f , ' ENGLISH - LANGUAGE The English Department has a very basic respon- sibility to all pupils of the educational system. As one cannot live alone today, it is the awesome duty of the department to free pupils to capable com- munication through the study and process of read- ing, writing, speaking, and listening. Proficiency in English is an asset, in fact, it is the very foundation and building block for self-education. The department, through the study of the various literatures, helps the pupils to become acquainted with better reading material. Literature offers the opportunity of travel and the understanding of life. ln brief, this study enables pupils to live lives more fully than the adjacent boundaries of direct experi- ence make it possible. The department is making every effort possible to give the students of Steelton-Highspire Junior- Senior High School the necessary background for suc- cess in their chosen endeavors. The study of a foreign language helps promote self-expression. The students develop the ability to understand, speak, read, and write the language with reasonable accuracy and ease. lt develops good judgement in the use of a large number of foreign words in the English language so that the vocabu- lary may be enriched. It develops the ability to under- stand the increasing number of words and phrases found in our literature, movies, and television. It gives the students the opportunity to understand some foreign people and their ways of life. Jacqueline Brown Marlin Collier Lois Guistvvhite B.S. 219 B.S. M.E.D.
