    3. A New High School The board of directors of Findlay township at a meeting held at the school house, August 13th, decided to establish a high school. The board had heretofore been sending pupils to the Coraopolis High School. But owing to the crowded condition of those schools the Coraopolis board has refused to admit any more pupils from Findlay township. Hence the Findlay board has been compelled to take care of and provide a high school for such of her pupils as are ready for the first and second years of high school. It has been decided to offer a two-year course. This course will correspond with the coursed recommended by the State Department of Education. Below is about what will be offered: First Year English Algebra Latin Physical Geography Civics or History Second Year English Latin (Caesar) Geometry Biology or History W. P. STEWART has been elected to teach the high school. Mr. STEWART is a college graduate, having the degree of A. B. from the University of Pittsburgh and the degree of B. E. from the School of Education of the same university. He has had experience in teaching high school The board is to be congratulated for being progressive in furnishing a good school building, in establishing a high school, and in securing an experienced teacher for the same.
