Did you ever wonder what classes you need to graduate from high school? Or have you wondered who john Burroughs was, or how long Burroughs has been a high school? Perhaps you have wondered what the school constitution has to do with you. john Burroughs' administration and faculty decided to answer these questions and to avoid constant visits to student counselors by publishing and distributing the new john Burroughs Student Handbook.

The book was designed to aid and help the students in student government, school standards, policies, and activities . lt is hoped that the handbook can be revised every three years. ., J' Q' K - i ' , ' 4 1 3130!
