Excerpt from Course of Study for the San Francisco High Schools, Vol. 1: To Patrons, Parents and Students; July, 1913
In the five High Schools is organized a central trunk-line. Or general plan of work. This trunk-line, however, has branches in many directions forming Groups designed to conform to varying aims and life-objects. The Groups are planned to meet the needs. As far as possible, of all who are ready to share the opportunities a high school affords, viz.: (1) those whose formal education must come to a close at the end of four years of high school instruction; (2) those who cannot tell definitely whether they will be able to continue their formal education beyond high school, and who wish to have the opportunity of deferring their decision on that point to a late time in the course; (3) those who confidently expect to continue their formal preparation beyond high school: and (4) those who can, spare no more than two-years' time. Or one-year's time only, for high school attendance.
