FENGER and the COMMUNITY The Roseland Community of the far south side of Chicago has generated cooperation between students, merchants, parents, and teachers. Hence, there has been formulated unique programs of inter-relationships between them. Among these are the P.T.A. which brings together the parent and teacher for the betterment of the student. Other programs included are those demonstrating cooperation among Roseland merchants and high school stuclents, such as the Distributive Education Program. Students work with the community in the progressive development of Roseland. 7
