in His words Mr. Dumont Expresses His Educational Philosophy One of the most important duties of a principal is to help formulate an educational policy or guideline. In the past six years as principal, Mr. Dumont has developed his own educational philosophy. Mr. Dumont ' s primary objective is that each student be treated as an individual in each class. Teachers should consider the varying degrees of progress and the problems each student has. Before failing a student, teachers should have a feeling that they have done everything possible for that student. Teaching is a tough job, but when teachers sign a contract, they realize that. In addition to an educational policy, principals have to cope with other problems. The state and federal governments frequently require courses. Mr. Dumont added, Money for a required course such as Consumer Man- agement was available for a few years, but has now stopped; however, the course is still required by the state. Therefore, the school district must assume the financial burden. As you know, inflation is hurting every school district. Many editorials have been written criticizing high school students citing poor grades and bad attitudes. Mr. Dumont ' s comments. however, differ from these critical reports. The attitude of the majority of students has never been better. Critics don ' t consider that respect should be deserved. People wanting respect aren ' t always deserving of it; most students do show respect whenever it is deserved. All of Mr. Dumont ' s problems are forgotten when he recalls graduation night. On graduation night all the frustrations are forgotten as students show their appreciation in their eyes and voice.

16 Exposure As Parents Many students plan to have a family, but do they really know what they are planning for? Parenting, taught by Miss Gertsch and Mrs. Nelson, informs students about the various responsibilities of parenting. In class the students learn about prenatal care, the development of the fetus, and delivery procedures. The classes also discuss the develop- ment of the child from one to five years and experience the different age groups through day care centers. Day care centers are held during class periods; students babysit youngsters of various ages to learn why children act as they do. The students also discover if they enjoy being around children. Egg-caring teaches the class in the first lessons of raising a child. The students are given one hard-boiled egg which they had to care for just like a baby, keeping it in continual sight. During such periods as P.E. or marching band practice, students must get a reliable “egg sitter. The classes even had major and minor cases of egg neglect, egg abuse, and egg knapping. Terry Donald- son and Miss Gertsch were found guilty of egg abuse and egg neglect. Egg-caring was to show the class the responsibilities of caring for a baby. Both teachers hope to have a permanent day care center at South and to enroll boys in the class since they will be parents too.
