PRINClPAL'S MESSAGE Surveys have shown that'a great many high school students are looking ahead realistically because they want vocational courses and work experience. Since education stops for so many boys and girls after high school, preparation for life careers in high school is necessary. But the purposes of education are broader than that. If it is realized that there are many sides in life that need attention, courses in high school will take on more meaning. Here are some of the areas that should be explored and studied. The worthwhile use of leisure time. Most of our time is spent off the job. Finding something pleasant to do off the job makes our work more effective. High school offers a splendid opportunity for the stu- dents to explore interests and find out what they enjoy doing. Extra- curricular activity plus shop, cooking, public speaking, etc., will help them to find and develop possible hobbies. Preparation for further study. Our courses provide the basis for further study. Proper study habits must be inculcated. With proper study habits formed, it is easy to develop the very necessary charac- teristic of how to think. After this is established, students are well on the road in developing to their greatest potential. Qpportunities for personality growth. High school helps students to find out about themselves. Their subjects, the extracurricular act- ivities, social activities, relationship with teachers, give them a chance to work out their ideas and thoughts. High school offers a splendid chance to develop the ability to get along with others and to learn the give and take of daily life. The importance of this one factor of getting along with people without friction is stressed in job surveys which show that most jobs are lost not because of the lack of ability, but because of not being able to get along with work asso- ciates. Preparation -for the democratic way of life. Our schools were originally instituted to develop and educate the citizens so that the tenets of democracy would stand. Democracy' depends on an intelligent and thinking population. Students must study history and civics thor- oughly to gather and appraise information on political and economical issues, only then can the problems of government be dealt with effec- Basic to the above four areas in making them more meaningful should be a profound respect for learning - a respect that will deepen and broaden with the years.
