Efvarhrra' Eraining Gllaaa The Wicomico High School enjoys the distinction of being the only High School in the State which maintains a Teachers' Training Department. This department was organized in 1915 through the influence of Supt. Hollo- way. The course includes two training subjects, pedagogy and sociology, in the senior year, and a post graduate year in which the entire year is spent in the study of the theory of teaching and observation and practice teaching in the elementary grades. The first class completing the post grad- uate year consisted of twenty girls who were graduated in 1917. V During the first two years a Demonstration School in charge of Miss Cora Gilliss was maintained' in which the classes observed well planned lessons and taught under supervision. The other work of this department has been in charge of Miss Ida Morris. Including this year's class there have been four classes graduating from this department making forty-four graduates in all. The largest per- centage of these are filling positions in rural and graded schools in Wicomi- co County. In the present shortage of teachers this department has per- formed a real service for the county in adding a number of trained teachers to the force. 16
