In June, 1904, by the request of ^ the Board of Trustees, the Sisters of St. John Baptist undertook the charge of the school. #1m The work has been steadily carried on since that time, and has met, as all 'believe, a very real need in the Diocese, and been blessed with increased usefulness. I The aim of S't. Helen’s Hall is to provide for girls the best possible facilities for complete education. This means not only the cultivation of the intellect and the acquirement of graceful, womanly accomplishments, but also such moral and religious training; as shall help the pupils to become pure, true women, with a high, posi­ tive: standard of Christian living, to* bring out in every girl some qualities of leadership, and to develop a right sense of her personal responsibility, so that she may be­ come a power for good in her home, and in the com­ munity in which she lives. 3 �\ \ ; : : ! v Ift i m: aj I 1 . : mm ■! .. h |r • ; ' i ! i I1 ! ? < �If i/ ■ ■ Ji £: 1 r i <1 £ ’if: I S ii:b ■ ;l ‘ 1 jl St. Helen’s Hall is now situated on Thirteenth Street, between Montgomery and Hall Streets. It is a i handsome three-story brick building, adapted for the accommodation of about thirty-five resident pupils, and i a large number of day pupils. There are excellent class < rooms with all the necessary equipment to meet the : > » | demands of a modern standardized school, large sunny . !' halls of unusual attractiveness, spacious grounds, and an out-door gymnasium where tennis, basketball, and sports of all kinds are played throughout the year. J ! 5 I. I•t ; �! » r jtv £ i I I: The interior administration of the school has been entrusted to the Sisters of St. John Baptist, who have the. general superintendence of every department. In secular studies they are assisted by a staff of efficient instructors, college graduates, especially trained for their wotk. 3: ' I !• l i A daily record is kept of the attendance, scholarship, and deportment of every pupil, and a report of the same is mailed to parents at the close of each quarter. ; Pupils failing, after a fair trial, to attain the required standard of scholarship or deportment, will not be re­ tained in the school. The Sister Superior will always be glad to receive visits from the parents of pupils. Sejjarlmrnts The school consists of three department: a Musical Kindergarten, the Lower School and the Upper School. I 1 ; 1) i The Lower School includes the six classes covering rn English and Arithmetic the same ground as the Ele­ mentary public school to the Seventh Grade, but with a broader range of subjects. The Upper School covers six years and is divided into two courses—The College Preparatory Course and the General Course. Two extra years of either col6 fu !; I i = ■ �legiate or special work may be taken if desired. The First and Second Forms of the Upper School correspond with the Seventh and Eighth grades of the Public School, and the Third, Fourth, Fifth and Sixth Forms correspond with the four years of the High School work. Beginning with the Third Form, the Upper School is divided into College Preparatory Course and the General Course. St. Helen's ITall is a standard school of Oregon, and is accredited to all the Western College and Univer­ sities. This allows students to enter without examinations. And the work is accepted by the Eastern Cdlleges according to the new entrance requirements, The passing grade of the School is 75 per cent. The recom­ mending grade of the School to Western Universities is 85 per cent. For entrance to Stanford University on the preferred list, and for the Eastern Colleges an aver­ age of 90 per cent is required. The College Course is especially for pupils prepar­ ing for Eastern Colleges. All Eastern Colleges are not uniform in their requirements, but entrance examinations are necesjary for all.Therefore it is advisable for students preparing for them, to take their preliminary examina­ tions at the end of the second year, and in some instances one or two may be taken at the end of the first year. This allows a better distribution of the work and lessens the strain of the Senior year. 7 �I 1 1 :• i 1 n m: ■ ■ I m v ■ 8 ■ i •• �' : ii i , I We urge parents who intend to send their daughters to College, to register them in one or more Colleges or Universities very early in the'i'r school life. This step is necessary because of the crowded condition of these institutions, especially so of the major eastern colleges. It is also a wise one because the pupil s preparatory work may then be definitely planned to fit her for whatever college sJhe desires to enter, without undue pressure in her Junior and Senior year. In the General Course no credit will be given for less than two years’ work in any language. German or Spanish may be substituted for French throughout the course. Pupils may enter any class for which they are prepared, but the Diploma of St. Helen s Hall is not given for less than two years’ attendance. This course meets the requirements of all Western Universities and Colleges. The General Course is intended for pupils desiring to lay the foundation of a broad general education, and meets the requirements of those universities and col­ leges which do not require four years’ preparatory work in Latin. In it the time, which in the College Preparatory Course is necessarily spent in Latin, is devoted to Literature, History and Modern Languages, Much of the work is common to both courses, and the standard of thoroughness is the same. I H ' ; Ii \ ; < Ii !: ii ill s H Music, Art and Elocution count as regular elective studies in the* General Course. A four-years course in 9 !l I 1 ' f. ; �: w I: i; i .• ; b\ any one of these subjects, satisfactorily completed, will be taken into account for graduation. < \i Engltelj V i \ f ! The aim in thi’s course is to give pupils thorough instruction in English Grammar and Rhetoric, to enable them to write with ease and ac­ curacy, and to teach them to appreciate what is best in English Literature. Throughout the School the read­ ing matter is carefully selected and in the fourth and fifth years of the Upper School history of English Lit­ erature is studied. After this the work consists chiefly in the writing of compositions and the critical study of English masterpieces, especially those required for College Entrance Examinations. In these courses the aim is to enable the pupil to ' read the languages at sight and speak and write them easily. 3Fmtclj anil Slants!) j \):: li f I‘ i *1 In order to acquire a good pronunciation, the study of French should be begun in the Lower School, the lessons at first being in the form of conversation and easy reading. Afterward grammar and translation are begun. In the last year of the course, French composi­ tion, history and literature are studied. French or Spanish may be begun in the third year of the Upper School and carried to the point required for admission to college or beyond it as may be de­ sired. Attention is paid to pronunciation, conversation u ; ; )\ 10 �and sight reading, as well as to grammar and transla­ tion, and French and Spanish songs and plays form a part of the course. “Latin and Greek are not regarded as dead languages except in the sense that all language of books not in our era is dead. They are living in the sense that the English of Chaucer and the Italian of Dante are alive, dead only to those to whom for lack of knowledge they are sealed books.”— JLnt'm a«& 8rwk (Cambridge School Mannual.) A four years* course in Latin is provided, meeting the usual college requirements in Caesar, Cicero, Virgil, Ovid, sight reading, and prose composition, adapted to the new comprehensive examinations of the College En­ trance Board. The course in Greek covers thre.e years, the previous I I work in Latin having prepared the pupil for its intelli­ gent study. The first year is given to grammar and exercises, the second to Xenophon, the third to Homer. It is desirable, though not essential, that pupils prepar ing for college should elect Greek as their third language. i!' •! \ , ) The study of History is begun in the Lower School and continued to the end of the school course. In the Cbliegei Preparatory Course it 1 necessarily limited to the Eastern college requirements Siiatarg 1 6 11 . ii : �which, however, are constantly increasing both as to quantity and quality. In the General Course five courses of history are offered. The topical method is approved, collateral reading is encouraged. Maps are drawn, and historical geography is held to be an important part of the work. History and English are intimately associ­ ated, pupils being required to commit to memory his­ torical poems, and to write compositions on subjects drawn from historical lessons. The school is fortunate in possessing a fairly good, though small, library of history, and literature bearing upon it. “In teaching mathematics the aim is to develop the spirit of enquiry, the habit of accuracy in reasoning, and the love of truth." (Cam­ bridge School Manual) i®atl|mattr0 The prescribed course comprises Arithmetic, Alge­ bra and Plane Geometry; elective, Solid Geometry and Trigonometry. Throughout the course original work is encouraged and set rules are avoided. The pupils are encouraged to lely as little as possible upon text books. Phis department is conducted in accordance with the best scientific methods. NaturalPIistory is taught in connection with Geography in the Lower School. In the Upper School the subjects are taken up as indicated in the course of study, Laboratory work is required of all students of science. It is Btxtntt 12 �considered that one or two sciences, each thoroughly studied for not less than one year, will do more for the pupil’s intellectual development than a larger amount of superficial work. Cookery—Laboratory and lecture classes in the theory and practice of cookery, together with modification of its laws. Somealtr Satire Foods—Their history, care, composition, cost and nutritiv-e value. Plain Hand and Machine Sewing—Bringing into use the primary stitches with their modifications and combi­ nations, and developing the simpler rules of garment making. This course is both cultural and practical as no student is received solely for the business training. g^mtarial (ttmtnu? All pupils receive instruction Holy Scripture and the History of the Church, and attend the daily services in the Chapel of the School. Resident pupils attend service on Sunday morning in one of the city Churches. SWtgious iuBtrurtimt • Pupils may study music, piano, violin, voice, theory, harmony, etc., in the school. Two half-hour lessons a week are usually given and at least °ne hour a day must be spent in practice; this time fHuair 13 �v4 ’ i v,:: : ■ I M (!

The technical work is drawn from the best sources, and pieces are selected from the great mass of old and new musical literature, according to the needs of the students. When they are sufficiently advanced, ensemble playing, duos, trios and quartettes may be studied. Pupils arc encouraged to attend the concerts offered throughout the season in the city. For advanced students a course in History of Music is offered. . y t B HO M I i 1 * < C ! The school of the Portland Art Association of­ Art fers special advantages to those wishing to study Art, and a noted Portland artist is on the teach­ ing staff of the School. The course includes elementary drawing, painting, modeling, sketching, composition, portrait and life study. Advanced students may also join the Art History and the Composition Class. Work in applied design is permitted when the pupils are suf­ ficiently advanced to carry out the principles studied. Art students may also join a class in Arts and Crafts, or may take special training in metal work, wood carv­ ing, etc. ! 1 : .i 1 m ; ■■ B ■''[$ ■ Short plays or scenes from plays Sramattr tExpmunmt are studied during the year as part of the regular work of the School.

I ' Supervised Athletics are emphasiz­ ed and are under the direction of an instructor of wide experience. Careful attention is given to the physical health of the pupil. Regular outof-door work is expected of all students. A physical ex­ amination of new students is required, that they may be guarded against the danger of overfatigue or too stren­ uous exercise. This examination may be made by the family physician or by the school physician.

Ample grounds pro­ vide for tennis courts, basket-ball, volley-ball, baseball, and archery in season. And opportunity is offered at a moderate cost for riding and swimming under proper supervision. Intejrclass and interscholastic basket-ball and tennis-matches are held each year,—not in order to make records, but to encourage the spirit of true sport.

A Sister, assisted by the resident nurse, 'has the care of the pupils’ health. Especi'al atten­ tion is paid' to manners and bearing. A short list of correspondents and visitors, signed by the parents, is required. Letters addressed to others than those on the list will be forwarded unopened to parents or guardians. Luring the term no pupil will be allowed to pass a night in town out of the school building except with her relatives or friends approved by the parents with the consent of the Sister Superior. Pupils m'ay not visit any­ where without the consent of parents or guardians. They may receive their friends on Saturdays and on week days out of school hours. Parents and members of the im­ mediate family may visit the pupils on Sunday also. Strangers must bring a letter of introductionfromparents or guardian. i The pupils will be allowed to visit on Saturday those friends in the city whom the parents may designate, pro­ vided those friends accompany them to and from the school, as they may not go about the city unaccompanied at any time. Those desiring it, h'ave the privilege of doing a limited amount of shopping, or attending places of amusement Saturday afternoon accompanied by the School Chaperon. ill Resident pupils will be allowed once in each month to spend Saturday and Sunday away from the school. Pupils whose homes are not in Portland are required to !• : Pi ■ ’ i 26 = i ! �i -i Pi ! be resident pupils at the school, The intention is to have the school family consist of earnest girls who will cheerfully adapt themselves to such regulations as are found necessary. No pupil who shows herself impatient of control, or whose general tone and influence is harm ful, can be permitted to remain in the school. f ■I Pupils are expected at all times to keep their rooms in order. A supervised mending class is held Saturday morn­ ings for all pupils with the exception of the Seniors. The School activities of the girls have the purpose of training them not only in ease, poise, and grace of manner, but also of developing those qualities of initiative, responsibility, and tact, indispens­ able to every woman. Mortal fCtfr A splendid library containing the works of standard autliprs, is accessible, and a number of the best current magazines are provided for the use of the students. ' ■; The Glee Club, Athletic Association, dancing, birth­ day dinners, various charitable activities, and the school publication, give variety to the school routine. ? A* i Teas, recitals, two formal dances for the older girls; and, toward the end of the year, the Juniors’ formal luncheon for the Seniors, and the Alumnae Luncheon, give opportunity for more general social life. M 27 := cl :3s ■i - L I 'll I ill 1a �ARCHERY �The proximity of the School to the center of the city, enables pupils to attend the opera, symphony con­ certs, 'lectures, and plays of educational value. A limited number of scholarships are avail­ able for girls of ability. Several School honors are awarded each year at Commencement. grljnlarsfjtjts rntii ffimtnrfi The Bishop offers a competitive scholarship prize to the Junior who passes the Eastern College Enterance Board Examinations in six points with the highest aver­ age. The Pittock cups for French and English are won by the students receiving the highest grades in the same Board Examinations in these subjects; and the Alumnae Association cup and the Ball cup are given similarly for honors in Latin and Mathematics. The Alumnae Association pin is given to the Senior who obtains the highiest average in studies and deportmdnt in the Senior year; and the students compete yearly for the Medal of the National Society of Colonial Daugh­ ters, and for the Lincoln Medal. There are several cups to be won for Athletics. First Testimonials—the Plighest Honors of the! School —are awarded to pupils attaining 99 per cent in conduct for the year, 90 per ceint in attendance, 95 per cent in punctuality and order, and an average for the year of 90 per cent in each study. Second Testimonials are awarded to pupils attaining 98 per cent for the ye'ar in conduct, 90 per cent in attend­ ance, punctuality and order, and an average for the year of 85 per cent in each study. 29 �r iExpnt sts The terms for hoard and tuition are payable: $425, including advance deposit, on entrance, and the balance, $375, on January 30th.
