The Brandon news. (Brandon, Miss.) 1892-1961, 1912-08-29
The Eleventh Grade.

The nth Grade was added to
the Brandon High School for the
same purpose that it is being adj
ded to High Schools all over the
State, that is, to prepare Stu
dents to enter the Colleges and
Universities. Brandon was one OF
the first towns to put in this A.
year Course and now a majority
of the towns in the State have it.
Stopping at the 10th Grade a
student lacks two Units of having
sufficient Credit to entitle him
to admission to the University
or |. | and c.. They will admit
him but he must make up three
times his deficiency before he
can pass from the freshman class,
which would take nearly any
student two years.
Another reason for the 4th
year in High School is that most
of the girls and the boys who
pass the Ord year are too young
to go away to school and it is
much less expensive, as we'll as
better for them to have anothgf
year at home.
The reason | have stated these
facts is because | have been ask
whether or not the 18th year, or
eleventh grade, is a loss of time
to student who wishes to go
to College. 1t is not a fact that
a student finishing our Tenth
grade can enter freshman
at Oxford or Columbus.

The Brandon news. (Brandon, Miss.) 1892-1961, 1912-08-29

At the general November cleo
ton, one of the questions to be
decided will be whether the Of
flee of county prosecuting attor-
ney shall be retained. Every
county in the state will vote on
this proposition, and in those
counties where a majority of the
vote favors retaining this office
the attorney will continue, and
in counties where the majority
is against the proposition, the
Office will be abolished.
