Here at S.H.S. we, too, are aware of the many implications of these words. If we are to meet successfully the standards of the new frontier which awaits us beyond our high school doors, we must be thoroughly prepared. Swampscott High School aims for such preparedness through its varied and chal- lenging curriculum. Innovations begun last year as a result of intensive self-evaluation by the faculty and a study made by a visiting committee from the New England Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools have shown their true value this year. At S.H.S. each student has an opportunity to choose for himself, with the advice of counselors, the course of study best suited to him. Three years of English and one year of American History are com- pulsory for all. The College Preparatory Course seeks to stimulate a desire for intellectual attainment, and to prepare those taking the course for institutions of higher learning. Students taking the College Course may elect mathematics ranging from general math to calculus. Biology, physics, physical science, and chemistry are offered by the Science Department, while the Language Department offers French, Latin, and Spanish.
