Pattern_s e( our way of life-woven on the loom of yesterday and today with a glance toward tomorrow. The warp of the loom is knowledge and the woof activities. These patterns are varied by the gray of serious thought; the red of joyous laughter; and by the pure white of hope and faith. Like sunshine motling the floor of the forest with gay dancing shadows or reflecting in the raindrops its irri descent gola, the patterns of the teenager touch all with challenge, mystery, and light. Come, follow us through the intricacies of youth, for they reveal our patterns, as we live, love, and laugh. i'edicatioll "We weave with colors all our own and in the field of destiny we reap as we have sown." The harvest of those that follow can be an abundant one. They, looking back upon our patterns, will discern both good and ill and then weave a better, a stronger, and more lasting design of their own. So to you, students of the future, we dedicate the 1956 John Quill. ~ The future beckons! \1~ .. Principal's Message . To design a pattern ""- t of I doing.

Since English is the basic learning of all subjects, this department aimed to teach the student to understand the lang uage; to speak it clearly; to write effectively; and to enjoy it. The love of literature was encouraged by the use of fine novels, plays and poetry, movies, and fine recordings. Social Studies The teaching of good citizenship and of the democratic way of life were two of the chief aims of the Social Studies De partment. The many other vital functions included the development of the impor tance of geography, and the study of his tory, government, and economics. These courses aided today's students, who are actually the backbone and future of our American democracy, to prepare for the future. Science In the Science Department, the faculty, under the direction of Mr. Houseman planned to promote a better understand ing of the forces of Nature and of their control and use by man. A science aptitude test was given to all eighth and ninth grade pupils to dis cover special aptitudes in the biological, physical, and earth sciences as well as to discover special observation and reason ing skills. The Science Department had an enroll ment of eight hundred ninety pupils. 14 and yesterdays Languages This year, the Language Department fostered two new courses, fourth year Latin and third year French. These courses were offered in addition to the accustomed three years of Spanish. Empha sis in all classes was, as usual. placed upon comprehension and culture backgrounds for intelligent study.

It pro vided them with enough knowledge to secure positions as typists, stenographers, secretaries; junior bookkeepers, clerks, and retail salesmen. The one subject offered that was not vocational, was Typewriting Special. This course was offered to give college preparatory students an oppor tunity to learn the fundamentals of the typewriter. 15 Practical Arts The Practica I Arts Depa rtment offered classes that instructed and helped students in solving problems found in later life.
