It offers the International Baccalaureate Program and the Avid program, Performing Arts Program and was the first public school to do so in the Central Valley of California. Modesto High School is the oldest high school in Modesto and among the oldest in California. 2015 marks year 132.〔http://mhs.monet.k12.ca.us/content/Information/mhshistory.html〕 In 1883, Ruliff Stephen Holway saw the need for a high school that could provide for needs extending beyond a primary grammar education. According to Sol P. Elias, member of the first graduating class of Modesto High School students, R.S. Holway was "a young schoolmaster... with the advantage of a charming character and a sympathetic mind... zeal and personality... (who) guided the pupils almost through the entire course until his departure... to accept a professorship at the University of California." This man, MHS' first principal, was responsible for the education of the entire student body, playing a role of both teacher and administrator before he left to teach in the UC system. Forty pupils comprised the first class organized at the first building located at 14th and I Streets; after four years, ten of these students remained to take part in the first graduation of MHS students. In the succeeding years, the number of seniors receiving diplomas fluctuated greatly; the lowest number occurred in 1893 when no one remained in school all four years to graduate. The high school moved to its current location in the 1940s. ==Sports== Modesto High School offers a variety sports on a seasonal basis: Fall (Male): * Soccer * Football * Waterpolo * Cross Country Fall (Female): * Golf * Volleyball * Waterpolo * Tennis * Cross Country Winter (Male & Female): * Basketball * Wrestling Spring (Male): * Baseball * Swimming * Tennis * Golf * Track Spring (Female): * Soccer * Swimming * Softball * Track 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Modesto High School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
