Too Many Below Grade
On the Below rs" list we have
z seniors. One or two entered late
and as yet have not caught up.
The others are not spending two
hours each evening on home work.
In the Junior class there are
eleven who are below rs in one
or more subjects. Three of these
have heavy schedules which will
be lightened. The majority of the
others do little home work.
In the sophomore class eleven
are below in one or more subjects.
Some of these people are new and
we know little about their ability
Others have difficulty with GER
tain subjects and will have to
work extra hard to pass in these
subjects. My guess is that four Of
them have done little or NO out
side study.
In the freshman class there are
% who r below in one or more
subjects. Most of these people are
working but the jump from a one
room rural to town is great and
it takes a little time for the pupils
to r%eadjust themselves. A few
schedules will be lightened. The
freshman class is a good group.
There are few loafers and we are
delighted with the type that the
rural schools have sent us this
Year. They are going to make sue
cessful high school students.
In u eighth we have a few
new pupils who may be misplaced.
If so their work will be changed
to that which they can do. On the
other hand there are several reg
ular eighth students who are re-
peaters and are still playing the !
same game. We hope they will
"come to" soon. The same story I
is true of the seventh. Much of
our time is devoted to preventing !
them from killing time. They |
must "hit the ball" OF some will
have to drop certain subjects.
College Standards High
