ACADEMICS COME TAKE A LOOK at our academic life. Whiting High School extends to its students a wide range of commercial and college pre- paratory courses. Students have a choice of which course they prefer to follow. Whiting High School offers all courses necessary for a student to enter college plus several others for enrichment. WHS offers two elective languages—Spanish and Latin. These are not required and are offered for the benefit of the student body. Cooking, sewing, wood shop, print shop, band, and art are also among the electives. Among the subjects required for gradua- tion are gym, health, civics, English, and ei- ther biology or chemistry. Any student who obtains a scholastic aver- age of 88 or above for two consecutive semes- ters receives a scholarship “W.” This is one of the highest honors that a student can ob- tain. All of these courses are offered to prepare the students for better leadership in the fu- ture.
