PROF. JONES ISSUES
STATEMENT TO
THE PUPILS

Lakeland, Fla, Oct. 16, 1918.
To the Patrons:
While the teachers will meet at the
school building each day for the pur-
pose of assisting any child who is
deficient in certain subjects or all
subjects, yet l want it understood
that the pupils may see the teachers
at their homes any time for instruc
ton. The main purpose is not to
lose any time. If, in the judgment
OF the Local School Board and the
City Health Officer, there should not
be any school next week, teachers
are instructed to assign lessons to
the children of their room for the
five days of next week. If a child
does not report for any assistance,
1t will be taken for granted that he
understands the subject matter. The
first quarterly examination will COW
er not only the time spent in school
but the lessons assigned to be pre-
pared out of school.
Again, children are instructed to
see their teachers for any informa,
ton necessary in the preparation OF
the lesson for each day. There will
not be any regular school until fur,
Their notice but private instruction
will be given to the pupils.
The members of the faculty are in
stucted to prepare the questions for
the first quarterly examination in or
der to be ready when we return to
school or as soon thereafter as DOS
sible for the examination.
Yours very truly,
CHAS. M. JONES.
