1920's and 1930's: Classes and Clubs
Through the cooperation of the Chicago Motor Club and the Illinois State Highway Department, a five-week course in sportsmanlike driving was offered to a limited number of juniors and seniors in the fall of 1938. A dual-control car was used in the driving course for the first time during the second semester of the 1938-1937 school year.
A council of residents sponsored adult night classes in the fall of 1937. The course offerings were: Spanish, French, English, English literature, sociology, amateur photography, and Spanish guitar. Teachers for this program were furnished by the Public Works Administration in 1938.
Student activities were a part of the School program from the first opening for classes. Among the earliest were the athletic teams. The boys athletic program was very successful and won the following championships: basketball in 1925, 26, 34, 40 and 44; Cross country in 1927, 33, 35; and football in 1926, 27, 28, 27, 31, 34 and 37; and outdoor track in 1927, 33 and 35. The Girls Athletic Club was formed with 10 members in the spring of 1926.
Two early student organizations were the Hi-Y club for boys, and the Girls Reserve. The first student council meeting was held On October 10, 1924. During that same year the Latin Club was formed, and the first homecoming dance was held after the York game on December 19th. The Glen Bard, the successor to the Glen Hi, received its charter from the national honorary journalism society, "Quill and Scroll" in the fall of 1928.
There was an active Science Club and in 1929 the members constructed a television set on which pictures could be seen by looking through a one-inch square hole. In 1932 the National Thespian Honor Society accepted the Glenbard drama group for membership.
