meneations of the State Department
and North Centarl Association, the
Plentyweod high school is requiring,
four years of English, two years of
mathmatics, three years of history
and social science including II. S.
history and American problems and
recommends at least two years OF
science, Many colleges require either
two years of language or science SO
it is advisable for any who plan to
no to an institution of higher learn
ing to take either the science or
anguage or both. If those who are
enrolling for the first time or have
already attended high school will
talk over their plans at home before
hand it will no doubt assist both
them and the school in mapping out
a four year program best suited to
their needs The general policy of
the school will be to limit freshmen
and sophomores to four subjects.
Juniors who have lost a credit may
in most cases carry five subjects, as
may Seniors who require that num-
Der for graduation The ability Of
those who enroll for more than four
subjects to do acceptable work in all
must be shown from the beginning,
1t is expected that a grade of over
so percent be maintained where a
pupil carries more than the regular
load. Fully accredited schools are
guided in this requirement by ac-
crediting standards. in that "a max
imum percent of the enrolment is
set for those who would permit pu-
pills to take more than the normal
load
