Zoology students enioy studying a variety of unique specimens. THE El IIHIEULUIV l'iNCll.lSl l :Xt Walnut llills a six year course in lfnglish is considered essential, for it is necessary for all other subiects. All stu! dents must be able to write clearly with correct grammar whether for a history research paper or for self-expression of ideas. A wide study of' literature is also basic for life, as it stimulates the students' interest in all types of reading while providing a certain pleasure that only a good book can bring. ln the three year .-Xdvanccd Standing Course, special attention is paid to analyzing literature and learning to write effectively. liy mastering lfnglish-grammar, com- position, and literature students can enrich their lives greatly. I..'X'lilN .-KNIT .XlUl7l .RN l..'XNCiL'.-Xfilf VN'almit llills is one of the few schools today which still offers six years of l.atin. A basis for all languages, it is compulsory for seventh through ninth graders, from then on students may either continue l.atin or take up a modern language: l7rench, Herman, or Spanish. 'l'hrough a study of language, much can be learned about other ways of life. and this is the first step toward international understanding, and eventually world peace. IIISTORY ln the world of today it is necessary that all citizens be aware of what is going on, as well as knowing the cold facts ol' past history. 'lille study of history, of which at least two vears is required, is more than memory work-it is a way ol'groupingfll1'clilll'l'1'lilt'X't'lt'solicivililailiotlsLllitlolill'L1l'Il- ing Irom flu- past lo mold a better world. As it is also a tram-- ing in current events, students are made aware of the issues of the day and of their responsibilities as .'XIllCl'lCilI1 Catl- lL'll5. SCIIQNCIC Going along with the trend of the last few years toward emphasis on all phases or science, requirements in this field have been increased for all students. liighth graders unist take a general science course, while Biology is compulsory in the ninth grade. ln addition to the regular physics and chemistry courses, one of which is required for graduation, Advanced Standing Chemistry is offered to students who have unusual interest and aptitude for this subiect. Zoology and Physiology may be elected by students. .Xl:X'l'll One very important road to elear and logical reasoning is through a good mathematics program. This is being pros vided for all XYalnut Hills students since they must take at least four years of math: preparatory work in the seventh and eighth grades, Algebra l in the ninth grade, and Plane Geometry in the tenth grade. As higher math is greatly stressed, many go on to take trigonometry and solid geometry. Capable students may take the Advanced Standing Math program, from their sophomore to their senior year, at the end of which they will have eompleted the work that is normally done by college freshmen, and for which they may receive advanced placement in col- lege. ARTS To broaden the horizons and interests of students, lYalnut Hills offers an extensive program in the arts: music, art, home economics, and industrial arts. ln the lower school these courses provide variety in the students' program, and enable them to develop interest and skill in these fields. Such courses as A Cappella Choir, Orchestra, and Special Art give them an opportunity to pursue these interests in the upper grades.
