Mofntgomery Cozmty High School 15 cost of a year's schooling may be very materially diminished. Every assistance will be given students to enable them to secure satisfactory places at the lowest possible rates. Many students who live near the Union Traction Company's inter- urban line avail themselves of the privilege of coming to school in the morning and returning to their homes at night. Car fare is a comparatively small item of expense. No tuition fee is required of students living in the county. Five or six dollars a year will purchase all the books necessary for any course. DIPLOMAS AND CERTIFICATES Pupils who complete any of the courses are granted diplomas. The diploma from the Collegiate Course admits the holder to the State University without examination. Our diplomas are also given due credit by the State Normal, the Agricultural College, and the denominational colleges and universities of Kansas. This school has, for many years, been on the accredited list of the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. Students who complete the Collegiate Course are admitted, without examination, by the leading educational institutions of fifteen states. Each student who completes the Normal Course receives in addi- tion to the diploma, a teacher's certificate, second grade, valid in Montgomery County. The State Board of Educa- tion has placed this institution in the list of schools main- taining accredited normal courses. By passing a satisfactory examination on the questions submitted by the State Board, graduates can secure certificates valid anywhere in the state. 1' r
