Of the German-American schools of Chicago, the one entitled to the utmost consideration is the high school of the West Side. This school is completely independent and non-denominational, and is guided by the best principles of German teaching and education. American conditions, especially in regard to the teaching of English are taken into full consideration.

To the girls an opportunity is offered to perfect themselves in all feminine handicrafts. The school fee is very small and a reduction is made in favor of children of the same family. The school is under the direction of a school board.
