Richmond Academy

Richmond Academy was established
In June. 1902. by the authorities. in
recognition of a need FOR secondary
school In connection with u college
OF high aims. Standing primarily az
college preparatory school, with all
the tradition OF the college behind it,
Richmond Academy started its career
with definite aims and principles,
while al the same time its recent
founding gave it the right of some
slight experimentation in educational
theories. Out of this experimentation
has grown n real honor system.
Every educator who specializes in
secondary education dreams Of an
honor system, and that this is the
case speaks volumes for the quality
OF men who in this country make a
specially OF the training OF boys and
girls. The fact remains, however. that
= genuine honor system is such a rare
thing that the schools possessing 1t
may perhaps be numbered in figurcs
OF TWO columns. The reasons for this
state OF affairs are many. but the fact
remains that this state of affairs en-
lists. The authorities of Richmond
Academy. however. believe that they
have a real honor system.
In the first place, careful selection
is made of the members who are to
make up what is really little fam
iiy Before boy is admitted to the
academy, his credentials are carefully
examined by the dean and discussed
by the faculty. The question Mt stake
Is not. rs he a good STUDENT" but
rs he gentleman?" This criterion
Is applied not only to the entering
student but also to the teacher who
applies for a position and by the boys
themselves in their school election of
the most popular boy.
Another foundation stone at the
school in the building OF an honor
system structure is the realization of
the fact that unnecessary supervise on
on the part OF the teacher makes an
honor system impossible. Hence. all
matters which can best be settled by
the student body are left for their
consideration always with the under
standing that they are Mt liberty to
seek the advice OF :he faculty. Dur
ing the past session several very I'm
portant matters relating to the dis
cipline OF the school have been set
tied by the students themselves. and
settled IN the right way. At the same
e!me that the students were discussing
these matters. the faculty were also
discussing them. and in every case the
decisions were almost parallel in their
trend.
The examination system of study
has been carried out successfully by
the academy. Three examinations are
held during the year, and during tho
time that they are being held all
studies are suspended. so that the
students may concentrate their entire
attention upon preparing for the tests
In these days 1t Is mooted question
among the boys schools as to whether
exam nations arc advisable or not. OF
course this is largely a matter of
locality. and, like all school questions,
the peculiar conditions in the locality
must he taken into account Some
men go so far IS to advise against eN-
aminations, on the ground that they
