One of the interesting things the class studied was active and inactive volcanoes in Central and South America. To make the study of volcanoes more interesting, the class built a volcano in the shape of a cone from plaster of Paris. Then ammonium dichromatic powder was placed in the center. When this was set on fire the volcano erupted and ashes of the -burnt powder spilled over the side. Science class was made more interesting by doing all experiments and the use of the microscope. Another major field of endeavor was the de- velopment of self-discipline by the students.

Preparing for Junior High is a lot of work, as many sixth graders discovered. In math, the multiplying and dividing of deci- mals added to the students knowledge of math, as did the diagramming of sentences in the language study. The usual study of South America, Central America, and Mexico took place in Social Studies. The brighter side of learning in the fun classes, art and music led to the making of Easter baskets for the first grade, and learning to read musical notes. Parties for various holidays added sparkle to the regular school routine.
