Mock trial exonerotes Macbeth Advanced Placement English permitted a specially selected group of students to achieve the college freshman level. Units on poems, novels, and short stories headlined the course of study. Taught by Mrs. lris Hunsinger, the class allowed the students to pur- sue an in-depth study of many types of world literature. Each stu- dent was taught to seek a depth of understanding rather than just a surface meaning of the works studied. ln the spring, each mem- ber of the class took an exam up- on which college placement and credit were based. ff- Reenacting the songs of the mlnstrel of the Elizabethean period, Jimmy Chilton entertains his class with ballads.
