The F.njllah curriculum l divided into two general sections grammar and literature. Grammar Is the tool with which every person works. It usually follows that an adequate command of written and oral English is not only essential to the mastery of other subjects but is also considered a requisite for success. In the four years of the high school English curriculum, formal grammar, vocabulary building, par agraph organization, and theme writing are emphasized in close re lation to life situations. Functional English In radio and public speaking groups crystallize classroom work in terms of practical experiences. Likewise, functional English in all levels encourages individual think ing and logical organization of ideas. The first two years of high school grammar Include vigorous reviewing of fundamentals. The junior year is divided Into three sections: Amer ican literature, public speaking and radio speech. Students in literature lasses the first semester enroll in speech the second half of the year. Radio speech is open to Juniors and -seniors who show ability in speech or who are interested in the voca tional possibilities of radio. Speech workshop activities extend to down town adult meetings and to radio studios.

Poetry is experi ence life experience of the com mon, everyday variety, dealing with ageless truths in the scale of human values and leading to the cultural development of the student laying his foundation for profitable read ing and thinking for a fruitful adult life. The high school English curri culum is coordinated with the city elementary school English program to achieve the highest type and the most effective schedule in the field of language and literary arts.
