Excerpt from State Manual of the Courses of Study for the High Schools of Oregon

I. Organization Of Courses. There are eight terms of one-half year each. When necessary, small classes may be combined so that English 5 and 6 and English 7 and 8 may be given in the same grade.

II. Organization of Work. The English course is essentially one in composition. If the teacher can not do both composition and literature he must omit the latter. The classics for reading are to be utilized according to the interests of the teacher and the exigencies of the 'class work. The relative proportion of composition and classics varies with the term.

A. English 1 and 2. Composition, paragraph, grammar sentences, spelling, punctuation, four days a week; classics, one day. There should be a weekly theme, paragraph or narrative.

B. English 3 and 4. Composition, three days a week; classics, two. About half the writing should be Single paragraphs. The rest should be Compositions of several paragraphs. There should be two longer themes, averaging one thousand words.
