PARENT-TEACHER ASSOCIATION
OF HADLEY SCHOOL SENDS
GREETINGS TO MIDDLE TEN
NESSEE ASSOCIATION,
Which Assembled Here April 5, 6
and 7, 1917.

Subject: How Home and School
May Exert a Helpful Cooperation"
First, by attendance on the part of
parents and teachers. The greatest
demand of the world today is CO.
operation, and il parents would visit
the schools more and inquire into
the needs and conditions of their
children they would help to make
the schools better and help the
teachers in their efforts to benefit
your boy or girl. Fathers and moth
ers would be prepared for the best
home-making and child-nurture. AS
ISOLATION and persistence win co-ope'
ration. Let us attend and inspect
our teachers with helpful and con
structive criticisms If we have at any
all.
Another matter that would eject
the welfare of your child outside
home and school, and with these
united efforts we would arouse the
community to the sense of its re
sponsibility in the interest of Their
children; and with home and school
equipped to do their work efficiently
and intelligently with cooperation
none of the reformntory agencies
would be needed.
Third. by contributing toward the
financial support Of the objects OF
interest of the association.
Truly we know no organization sue
ceeds without funds, and for this
reason Hadley School teachers are
busy today planning some means by
which they can be of some assist
ance.
Fourth, by uniting to enlist the in
terest of the uninterested. IF we rs
mothers come together and unite
our efforts, We would arouse the
community in such way that there
would be no doubt of large en-
rollment.
Fifth, by making the purpose and
rbiect of the association better
known. They are giving aid TO pa
rents who would he unable to retain
their children in regular attendance
throughout school term. They are
bringing home and school closer to
gether; they are doing a splendid
work in every community where
there is interest shown among pa
rents. Now, let us show greater in
terest in our next big meeting which
will be held Friday evening, April
the 9th, 1917, at p. m, in Hadley
school building. We want progress
sive parent-teacher association. We
want an enthusiastic parent-teachel
association. Let us he little kinder
Let us he a little binder to the
faults of those about u.s. Let II!
praise little more. Let us be wher
we are weary, just little bit more
CHEEKY. Let us serve a little better
those whom we are striving for.
