Y . .3 Improvements 1929-1930 There have been several improvements in the high school this year, largely through the efforts of Mr. Davey. A budget system for the students has been worked out which has been named the Booster Club. A dollar payment and fifteen cents weekly enables the student to attend all high school football and basketball games played within the city. lt admits him to the Booster Mixers given once a month, and to any assemblies spon- sored by the Club. He also recieves the News and a Kodak. This plan has been very successful, and has enabled many stu- dents to attend all the school functions. This year a new rule has taken effect whereby all students are required to take four years of English. The plans for next semester are most promising. There will bea definite college preparatory course for all students desiring such a course, and for those desiring a commercial course a different line of study has been worked out. Fewer academic subjects will be required of this student, and more electives will be offered him. This will not, however, prepare a student for college. The improvements that have been carried out, and those that have been planned for the future have all been made in the direct interest of the modern youth. The youth of today will be the man of tomorrow, and will be better able to help and guide the generations before him because of the help and guidance he is given today.
