       Some of these courses are given alternately so that Juniors and Seniors have two classes a day together.  This year during the second semester the choice of the following has been given:-  Girls - Advanced Home Economics;  Boys - Animal Husbandry or Algebra.
       Macedonia High School does not pretend to be a Normal Training School but with the sollikd foundation for straight thinking built up in pursuing the above course of study,  supplemented with the required twelve weeks normal training work in summer school,  many of the graduates have done excellent work as teachers in the schools of the surrounding community.
       About one third of the pupils in the high school are tuition pupils from outside the consolidated district.
