Of considerable help to the homeroom teachers at the Elementary School are a large number of parents who come in on special days to help with the preparation and supervision of special programs throughout the scholastic year. Among these special programs are those which occur at Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter, Field Day, and Moving-Up Day. Needless to say that the lending hand provided by these parents is deeply and sincerely appreciated. What might other- wise be a chaotic experience for the homeroom teacher becomes an hour or two of pleasurable entertainment.
