WHERE THERE’S LIFE, there are ACADEM- ICS. In our rapidly advancing day and age, step- ped up educational requirements are a necessity; and Whiting High School meets this challenge through its ever-improving academic program. Students taking a vocational or commercial course have a wide selection of shop, business, or home economics courses to choose from. College bound students have the opportunity to take the advantageous college prep course, which consists of a variety of math, science, language, and social study classes. Though a small school, WHS has as diversified an academic course as some schools many times our size. A C A
