RULES AND REGULATIONS

OF THE

BOARD OF EDUCATION

PRINCIPAL

It shall be the duty of the Principal to call a
meeting of the faculty at least once each four weeks
for the purpose of considering matters pertaining
to the interest of the school. He may call a meet-
ing at any other time if in his judgment it is im-
portant.

He may appoint a committee of four teachers to
act with himself as a faculty advisory body, with
jurisdiction in matters pertaining to scholarship,
discipline and other school affairs.

He shall have jurisdiction in cases of discipline,
and shall report to the Board of Education matters
which he considers sufficiently serious.

In connection with the faculty he shall lend all
possible aid to the outside schools of the county
which may be doing high school work.

He shall have charge of the buildings and
grounds at all times during the sessions, and shall
be responsible for their keeping.

TEACHERS

Vacancies in the regular teaching force caused
bj' illness or unavoidable absence shall be fdled by
some one selected by the Principal who shall im-
mediately notify the High School Board of the va-

cancy and the name of the substitute. Substitutes
must be paid by the teacher whose position has
been filled.

Teachers are required to report one week before
the opening of the school year and be subject to
the call of the Principal. All teachers shall remain
during the week following the close of the school
year, and as much longer as the school board may
require, for completing the work of the year and
arranging for that of the new year.

The teachers shall make any reports requested by
the Principal or Board of Education.

Teachers desiring supplies must hand into the
Principal's office a written requisition for the same,
the last Friday of each month.

STUDENTS

Every student who has been absent or tardy,
must bring a written excuse from parent or guard-
ian. Parents wishing to have students excused be-
fore the regular time will please send a written re-
({uest. Dental and other engagements can and
sliould be made for times outside of school hours.

Students are expected to conduct themselves as
ladies and gentlemen with a due regard for pro-
priety. The Princii)al has power to suspend any
stuck'iil for wilful disobedience, open defiance of
the authority of any high school teacher, profanit3%
vulgarity, truancy, persistent neglect of work, or
irregularity of allendance, for use of tobacco on
the school grounds or on the way to and from
school or for any conduct considered detrimental
to the best interest of the school. The authority
of the school extends bevond school hours and the

school grounds and especially to all times and
places where pupils appear in the name of or as
members of the school.

No subscription of any kind shall be asked for or
taken, nor shall tickets for any purpose be sold in
class rooms or assembly. No canvassing or adver-
tising of any kind shall be permitted on the school
premises. Lists of students are not to be given
out except with the permission of the Board of
Education.

COURSE OF STUDY

It is the purpose of the High School to offer
courses of study which will do the greatest amount
of good to the greatest number of students. The
majority of high school students never go to col-
lege, but take up some work when they leave the
High School, therefore, unless they are sure that
they are going to college they should try to select
some course which will prepare them best to do
what they wish to do, when they leave the High
School.

Students, who later in their course decide to go
to college, can usually, without any difficulty, take
the subjects required for college entrance.

Those students who are reasonably certain of go-
ing to college should register in the college prep-
aratory course, and if they know what course they
will pursue in college, follow the suggestions found
on page 45.

MANUAL ARTS

A foiir-3'ear course is offered in Manual Arts, in-
cluding woodwork, forge, pattern making, machine
shop and photography. Any course offered is so
arranged that any boy may take as an elective a
part or all of the manual art subjects. It is highly
advisable that nearlj"^ every student take at least a
year of such work.

First Year — Wood-working — IB

The course in woodworking is designed to give
such training in the processes of elementary wood-
working as will insure mastery of the common
woodworking tools, acquaintance with drawings,
the ability to design simple pieces of furniture, and
practice in the sharpening and care of tools used.
Special attention is given to planing, joining, glu-
ing, sawing and chiseling. A start is made in
wood turning, care of lathes, and use of the differ-
ent tools, which work is completed in the second
year.

Forging — lA

Perhaps no form of manual training involves
greater dexterity of hand, accuracy of eye and
quickness of thought than smith work. From the
first sim])le exercises in "drawing out," the neces-
sity of striking while the iron is hot is impressed
firmly on the mind of the pupil, and instant judg-
ment is brought into continual play.

Drawing, bending, twisting, upsetting, welding,
shaping of wrought iron, the annealing, hardening,

li

tempering, and working ol" high carbon steels arc
given careful attention in the course.

Second Year — Pattern Making 2B

First is taken up a studj' of the proper materials
and tools used in the art, the principles involved in
the construction of patterns and especially those of
draft and shrinkage; secondly, the tempering and
mixing of sands used in general foundry practice;
thirdly, bench work with snap flasks and solid
small ilasks, and the molding of small patterns
made by the student.

Machine Shop — 2A

As a preparation for the work each machine is
carefully studied, its construction and various mo-
tions, the office of each nut, bolt, screw and part.
Actual work is begun with a series of exercises,
such as plain turning, facing, thread cutting, inside
boring and threading, turning of tapers, and chuck
work of all kinds. Later, the pupil is given work
on the drill presses, miller, shaper and grinder.

Third and Fourth Years

After the completion of one year of machine
shop practice the pupils are permitted to enter any
one of the shops in which they may wish to make
themselves proficient in advanced work. These
pupils are given individual attention and at the
beginning of the year their courses are planned by
the instructor. Their needs are carefully studied,
and each individual requirement is met. This plan
of shaping the course to the individual has proved
most satisfactory for advanced pupils.

Photography

Pupils who have completed one year of advanced
machine shop practice may elect photography. In

15

general, the course consists in instruction in the
care and mechanism of the camera, tray develop-
ment, negative making, intensifying and reducing,
printing, exterior and interior photography, flash
light photography, copying and enlarging.

COMMERCIAL

The Commercial Department offers a regular
four-year course and all students of the average
high school age who wish commercial work, are
advised to pursue this course. Students may, by
consent of the Head of the Department, register for
a two-year course, but unless they are of a mature
age, such registration will be discouraged. The
immature student needs the added years of training
and a chance to take not only more vocational
work, but also the cultural elective, than he can
crowd into two years. The following courses are
offered :

First Year — Bookkeeping

Thirty-six weeks, ten periods per week. This
will be carried on partly as class work. Regular
recitations will be held and the class will be kept
doing the same work as much as possible. Still
there will be plenty of room for the ambitious stu-
dent to progress rapidly.

First Year — Spelling

Thirty-six weeks, five periods per week. In ad-
dition to drill in spelling, pronunciation and mean-
ing of words this work includes the use of words
in business letter writing.

An average of 90 per cent in the work of the first
year will excuse the pupil from that of the second
year.

Second Year — Bookkeeping

Thirty-six weeks, ten periods per week. This is
a continuation of the work of the first year. Pu-
pils who complete the required work in time may
be given advanced practice.

In the four-year commercial course, pupils who
have taken the course in advanced arithmetic in
their second year will be able to acquire a sufficient
added knowledge of business arithmetic in conjunc-
tion with their work in bookkeeping.

BUSINESS PRACTICE— This work is carried on
in conjunction with the bookkeeping. Tlie pro-
gress and the ability of the student to master the
preliminary work in bookkeeping governs the time
when he commences business practice.

Second Year — Spelling

Thirty-six weeks, five periods per week. A con-
tinuation of the work of the first year, substituting
as far as possible typewriting for spelling:

In the four-year commercial course, this require-

DRAMATICS

This course is an alternative for English 3 or 4.
It is a cultural course with a two-fold purpose, i. e.,
(1) To acquaint the pupil with the Historj^ of the
Drama and the New Tendencies of the Drama. (2)
To give the pupil stage presence and help his
enunciation and voice development.

The first semester takes up the History of the
Drama from the Aristotelian Greek Drama througli
the Drama of (ioldsmith and Sheridan.

The second semester takes up the New Movement
in the Drama, and a study of the chief contem-
porary dramatists.

The work of both semesters is supplemented l)y
reading certain representative dramas; and the
work in expression is carried on through both
semesters.

The classes will l)e small, and certain restric-
tions will be placed on the freedom to enter the
course. Those wishing to enter the course must
consult the instructor some time between Sept. 1st
and the beginning of school,

SCIENCE

First Year

(iencral Science, thirty-six weeks, five periods a
week. The subject is treated from the point of
view of natural science in general rather than from
the points of view of the several subdivisions there-
of. Clark's General Science is used as a reference
for class use and aside from this students are as-
signed some collateral reading. A certain amount
of laboratory work is required.

Second Year

Physical Geographj-, thirty-six weeks, five periods
a week. The subject matter of any one of the
standard high school texts is taken as the basis for
the work. Arey, Bryant, Clendenin and Morey's
Physiography and Smith, Stahl and Sykes' labora-
tory manual in physical geography are in use.
Tarr's New Physical Geography is also used as a
supplementary text.

Biological Science

11, 1916. This course for the present year will be
open to 2nd, 3rd and 4th year students.

Third Year

Chemistry, thirty-six weeks, seven or eight per-
iods a week. This is strictly a laboratory course,
using as a basis Smith's High School Chemistry and
Manual. It comprises a thorough study of the
principal elements, valence, law of definite and mul-

31

tiple proportion and is preparatory and prerequi-
site to the first course in chemistry given in the
Junior College.

HOUSEHOLD CHEMISTRY— This covers a
year's work. It is especially for girls who take do-
mestic science and who do not expect to go to col-
lege. Snell's Household Chemistry is recom-
mended.

consists entirely in actual assays of ore samples and
some instruction on ore deposits and important
minerals associated with them. Beringer's text-
book of Assaying, Griffin & Co., London, is used as
a reference.

HISTORY

The student should be led to distinguish the es-
sential points in history. Special attention should
be attached to the development of movements of
far reaching importance to civilization. Mere
memorizing of facts and dates is to be avoided.
Abstracts should be used only to train the pupil to
get at the gist of the subject. Whatever note-book
work or map drawing is required must be done
neatly and accurately.

ANCIENT HISTORY— Thirty-six weeks, five per-
iods per week. This subject is a condensation of
the usual one year's work in the history of Greece
and Rome and that portion of European history
closing about 800 A. D. The development of civ-
ilization; the growth of institutions; the rise and
fall of nations, with the study of the reasons for
both their success and failure. Special attention
should be given to the successive westward move-
ments which have resulted in the present location
of European peoples.

MEDIAEVAL AND MODERN HISTORY— Thirty-
six weeks, five periods per week. From the year
800 to the present time. Special attention given
to racial movements and to the development of
civilization. The growth of the modern forms of
government. Details of English history are to be
omitted.

ENGLISH HISTORY— Thirty-six weeks, five per-
iods per week. This should be a development of

the history of the Enghsh race in its social, indus-
trial, political and constitutional aspects,

HISTORY AND GOVERNMENT OF THE UNIT-
ED STATES — Thirty-six weeks, five periods per
week. A consideration of the growth, development
and progress of the American nation and its insti-
tutions. Special attention should be given to pres-
ent social, industrial and political conditions of the
nation. In civics, the duties of citizenship should
be emphasized and attention given to the question
of municipal government.

HISTORY OF COMMERCE— This course will
take up the history of commerce from the earliest
times and trace the growth down to the present
time, taking especial account of geographic, eco-
nomic and political factors.

DRAWING

MECHANICAL DRAWING

The first year aims to give the student a knowl-
edge of the use of the instruments, an ability to
read drawings and an intelligent appreciation of the
varied use of drawings.

The work starts with geometrical constructions,
lettering, copy plate work, advancing as rapidly as
possible to orthographic projection and then to
very simple working drawings.

The second year the student starts with drawings
of simple machine parts from models such as check
valves, globe valves, gate valves, injectors, etc.,
which he takes apart for the purpose of making
both the detail and assembly drawing. More let-
tering work is given in the early part of the year.
Tracing and blueprinting are also given.

During tlic latter part of the year the student
who desires to specialize in architectural drawing
is given an opportunity to do so.

The third year the student should be able to
make drawings of complete machines and he is
started on drawings of machines in the different
shops, tlicn given some machine outside of the
school to make sketches of and obtain measure-
ments sufficient to enable him to make complete
details and assembly in the drawing room. The
arcliitectural student is given a list of requirements
including cost, size and direction of frontage of a
lot, number and arrangement of rooms, and other
data supposedly from a client and is obliged to

38

work up a set of plans, specifications and contrac-
tor's contract.

The fourtli year student is oblii^cd to do a great
deal of figuring of costs and other executive work
in addition to the drawing work. The drawing
work in this last year is planned to supplement as
much as possible the special line of work that tlic
student has selected and is entirely individual work.

FREEHAND DRAWING

The Art Department presents a varied course to
suit the abilities of the student. It ranges from
copy plate work, drawing geometrical figures, con-
ventional design, casts of the human face and form
in pen and cliarcoal, to illustrating, designing and
painting in water color, pastel, or oil.

The aim of the department is not merely to
train the hands to guide the pencil, l)ut to train the
perception, to broaden the power of observation,
strengthen the ability to express oneself and give a
keener appreciation of the beautiful.

The first work is in outhne and light and shade,
from geometrical figures and kindred subjects.
From these the work is carried up the scale as fast
as the student is capable, regardless of the pro-
gress of his neighbor who may be more or less
talented, speciahzing in perspective first, and then
chiroscuro.

During the second credit year the student is al-
lowed to take up color, if he shows the proper
amount of ability and energy, and should be able to
do some very creditable illustrating or color work.

39

MUSIC

Students, who have taken music during the year
1915-16, will find a course in second year music
open to them.

Beginning students will enter the regular first
year classes unless permission is granted by the
instructor, to enter the second year class.

There will be a band and an orchestra and credit
will be given according to the time expended.
