N 0 77 Dnector T.--,-i-,M,,,s N- --M M -..A s X . ...Q The high school of today. if it is to keep ahreasl of the times, has to steer its thinking to the fast moving world that our graduates are now facing. Surely the high school can never train students to he first rate technicians. so the function of the high school is to lay a solid groundwork for our young people to build on. What it can do and should he doing is finding out the potential of every student. Then try to put each student in an environment that will develop his or her abilities to the utmost. One cannot build unless the fundamentals of math and reading are mastered. This solid information has to he placed in its proper prespective hy a solid background in our social studies classes. The program of our comprehensive high school is a never ending challenge that needs to he re-evaluated yearly, in order to make possihle the hest education for our youth. C. F. Shaw, Principal -tn?-In

Our national security seems daily to hang in the balance, population shifting and unrest is very evidentg automation and a constantly changing pattern of living is destroying jobs and creating others. Never has it been so apparent that our future progress and security. as individuals and as a nation. is greatly dependent on the quantity and quality of the educational opportunities that we provide for our young people. The present role of the school is almost awesome when we consider the urgency of our educational needs. Coupled with increased needs are the sharply rising costs of operating schools. lf we. in our community, want to provide good educational opportunities for our young people it will be :necessary to make intelligent decisions based on facts and not on emotions. The trend toward school consolidation is nation-wide. The Conant Study clearly shows that small educational units cannot provide the quality of training needed by our young people. A truly comprehensive program is only possible if the high school has a graduating class of at least one hundred. Classes in advanced subjects or separate sections based on ability are impossible in a smaller high school. lt is our sincere hope that our integration program will soon be completed. We will then be in a position to improve the educational program of all the children in our district. The high school of the future will be judged by the service it will render to all the people. These limitations for service will be determined by the understanding and desires of the people of our community. We hope to give every student an equal opportunity. This can only be done by ssholehearted cooperation on this urgent problem of educating all our Children' C. R. Wcilf, Superintendent
