The ground A upon which the school was first ,\r h_0 built was secured through the lib­ erality of Mr. John D. Wolfe and his daughter, Miss Catherine Wolfe, of New York City, whose large-hearted gener­ osity should ever be remembered in recalling the early history of this institution. The school continued its work in the original building on Fourth Street, between Madison and Jefferson, until the year 1890, when the property was sold to the City of Portland, for the use of the City Hall. On the 9th of June of that year, the corner stone of the large and commodious building at Park and Sinclair Streets was laid, and on the 24th of February, 1891, the school was moved to its new home. §> Miss Mary Rodney died April 15th. 1896. and the work was carried on by her sisters, the Misses Rodney. until the close of the school year. At the ®Pe"in® D„ becanu the next year, Miss Eleanor Tebbetts, Ph. till the end that office the principal and remained in Board of of June, 1904, when, by the request of the Trustee;, the Sisters of St. John Baptist (founded a. �4 ST. HELEN’S HALL Clewer, England, in 185/, and affiliated in this country in 1881), undertook the charge of the school. . The work has been steadily carried on since that time, meeting, as all believe, a very real need in the Diocese, and blessed with increased usefulness. The school building was destroyed by fire on Sep­ tember 3, 1914. The Gymnasium, near the Iiall, was immediately fitted up for temporary use, where the work has, since that date, been carried on. By the kindness of the Bishop and Clergy of the Diocese, the house at 574 Elm street was offered to the school, where a limited number of resident pupils was received during the year 1914-1915. Until the completion of the new school buildings the well-known house, for so many years the home of Bishop Morris, on the corner of Everett and 20th Streets, with the house adjoining it, will be occupied as houses of residence, where the number of boarding pu­ pils, limited to twenty, will be received. The situation is pleasant, each house having a garden and piazzas, and the location is central, convenient and within ten minutes’ walk of the school. V Owing to existing conditions, one hundred day pupils only can be received in the present school build­ ing. aim of, St., Helen’s Holl is to provide for girls . The , 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 positive standard of Christin living. * ' �ST. HELEN’S HALL 5 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, either college graduates, or teachers espe­ cially trained for their work. 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. The school consists of two departments—Elementary and Academic. The Elementary Department includes a Montessori Kindergarten for little girls and boys under seven. The Elementary Department is divided into seven classes, covering in English and Arithmetic the same ground as the Elementary public school, but including a broader range of subjects. The Academic Department covers five years and is divided into two courses—-the College Preparatory Course and the General Course. The College Prepara­ tory Course is so arranged as to meet the requirements of the leading Eastern colleges without undue pressure. 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 colleges which do not require.four years’ preparatory work �6 ST. HELEN’S HALL in Latin. In it the time, which in the College Prepara­ tory 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. The certificate of St. Helen's Hall is accepted in­ stead of entrance examinations at Wellesley and Smith Colleges, also at the State Universities of Oregon, Washington and California. Music, Art and Elocution count as regular elective studies in the General Course. A four-years’ course in any one of these subjects, satisfactorily completed, will be taken into account for graduation. In both the General and the College Preparatory Course, twenty credits are required for graduation, each credit representing a year’s work of five recitations a week. From seventeen to twenty-four recitations a week are required of all pupils. Either course, fully com­ pleted, entitles a pupil to the diploma of the school. tatglhi!) The aim in this course is to give pupils thorough inruction in English Grammar and Rhetoric, to enable hem to write with ease and accuracy, and to teach them o apprcaaie what is best in English Literature. From tne lowest class the reading matter is carefully selected, historv year tbe Academic Course a brief work ro°f Eng *sh Literature is studied. After this the the cr £TS Iy in the witine of compositions and hos r n • r/ °f E,^lish masterpieces, especially SSK E- to form a taste for good literature, and courses of reading are planned for the summer vacation. �ST. HELEN’S HALL 7 Sfanrfj anil (German In these courses the aim is to enable the pupil to read the languages at sight and speak and write them easily. In order to acquire a good pronunciation, the study of French should be begun in the Elementary Depart­ ment, the lessons at first being in the form of conver­ sation and easy reading. Afterward grammar and trans­ lation are begun. In the last year of the Course, French composition, History and Literature are studied. German or Spanish may be begun in the first, second or third year of the Academic Course and carried to the point required for admission to college or beyond it as may be desired. Attention is paid to pronunciation, conversation and sight reading, as well as to grammar and translation, and German and Spanish songs and plays form a part of the course. Satin mb (Srerk "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 Eng­ lish of Chaucer and the Italian of Dante are alive, dead only to those to whom for lack of knowledge they are sealed books.”—-(Cambridge School Manual.) A five years’ course of Latin is provided, including beside the usual college requirements of Caesar, Cicero, Virgil, Ovid and prose composition, a fifth yeai for Sallust and sight-reading. It is recommended that Latin should be begun in the 7th Grade of the school work. �8 ST. HELEN'S HALL The course in Greek covers three years; the previous work in Eating 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 lan­ guage. ^istnru The study of History is begun in the Elementary Department and continued to the end of the school course. In the College Preparatory Course it is neces­ sarily limited to college requirements, which, however, are constantly increasing both as to quantity and qual­ ity. 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 associated; pupils being required to commit to memory historical poems, and to write compositions on subjects drawn from his­ torical lessons. The school is fortunate in possessing a fairly good, though small, library of history, and litera­ ture bearing upon it. IRcttljemattrs In teaching mathematics the aim is to develop the spirit of enquiry, the habit of accuracy in reasoning, and the love of truth.” (Cambridge School Manual.) The prescribed course comprises Arithmetic, Algebra. Plane and Solid Geometry. Throughout the course original work is encouraged, and set rules are avoided. The pupils are encouraged to rely as little as possible upon text books. �ST. HELEN’S HALL 9 ^rirurp This department is conducted in accordance with the best scientific methods. Natural History is taught in connection with Geography in the Elementary Depart­ ment. In the Academic Department the subjects are taken up as indicated in the course of study. Labora­ tory work is required of all students of Chemistry and Physics, and the use of the microscope of all students of Botany and Physiology. It is considered that one or two sciences, each thoroughly studied for not less than one year, will do more for the pupil’s intellectual devel­ opment than a large amount of superficial work. A course in the Theory of Domestic Science, includ­ ing Hygiene, Household Sanitation and Chemistry of Foods, is offered. For lessons in cooking in connection with this course an extra charge is made. Ikltgioits dJnstrurtinn All pupils receive instruction in Holy Scripture, Church Catechism 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. jftflusir Pupils may study music, piano, violin, vocal, musical theory, harmony, etc., in the school, Two half-hour lessons a week are usually given, and at least one hour a day must be spent in practice; this time may be in­ creased according to the ability of the pupil. The tech­ nical 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 �10 ST. HELEN’S HALL they are sufficiently advanced, ensemble playing, duos, trios and quartettes may be studied. Pupils are en­ couraged to attend the concerts offered throughout the season in the city. Art The school of the Portland Art Association offers special advantages to those wishing to study Art. The course includes elementary drawing, painting, model­ ling, sketching, composition, portrait and life study. Advanced students may also join the Art History and the Composition Class. Work in applied design is per­ mitted when the pupils are sufficiently 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 carving, etc. Pleural (ttulturr The school nasium, where matic, regular Apparatus and can be played. has the use of a well equipped gym­ pupils may have the benefit of syste­ exercise under a competent instructor. drill work can be taken and basket ball 7 he school also has two tennis courts for outdoor exercise. A riding school near by furnishes horses and grooms at a moderate charge for small riding parties. Pupils may also take swimming lessons, either in connection with, or separate from, the gymnasium work. Dancing, indoor games and all girlish amusements arc encouraged. Pupils may form a class for dancing lessons if desired. �ST. HELEN’S HALL 11 (Cmtrsfs of §>ial)y Elementary Sryartmrnt FIRST YEAR. English. Reading, Writing, Spelling, Phonics. Arithmetic.

HELEN’S HALL The advance deposit is required to secure a room be­ fore the school opens and is used to meet the expenses of school supplies. An account of money used for per­ sonal expenses will be rendered at the close of the school year, and any surplus returned. The laundry work included in the regular charges does not include white skirts or dresses. Dresses or thin waists are not allowed to be worn from November 1 to April 1. All arrangements are made for the entire school year. Pupils withdrawn before the end of the year will be charged in full, ex­ cept in cases of severe illness, when the loss will be equally shared. This is a distinct condition of the contract. The cause of removal must be attested by two physicians, one of whom shall be the attending physician of the school. No deduction is made for occasional absence, nor for absence during the first four weeks. It is assumed that these conditions are accepted when the pupil is entered, this being the custom of all schools in good standing. No reduction will be made for absence of less than six weeks. When desired, pupils may remain at the school during Christmas and Easter vacations, and for that time will be charged at the rate of seven dollars a week. No bills will be paid for pupils, nor money advanced to them unless a deposit has been made for that purpose, and pupils are not allowed to have running accounts at any store in the city. A monthly allowance is recommended as tending to give a young girl a proper sense of the value of money and responsibility in the use of it. 1 �ST. HELEN’S HALL 19 Uihp i^nmp The home life of St. Helen’s Hall aims to be that of a well-regulated household, in which the general tone is wholesome and happy. A Sister, assisted by the resident nurse, has the care of the pupils’ health. Especial attention is paid to manners and bearing. A short list of correspondents and visitors is re­ quired signed by parent or guardian. Letters addressed to others than those on the list will be forwarded un­ opened to parents or guardians. During the term no pupil will be allowed to pass a night in town out of the school building except with her parents or near relatives. Pupils may 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. Visitors will not be ad­ mitted on Sunday, except parents and members of the immediate family. Strangers must bring a letter of in­ troduction from parents or guardian. 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 unaccom­ panied at any time. 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 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 impa tient of control, or whose general tone and influence w harmful, can be permitted to remain in the school. �20 ST.
