Upon these foundations, Kane High School has built its reputation for the training of generations of promising and successful young men and young women. Through the Skillman Educational Loan Fund, every graduating class is able to show its interest in the ambitious graduates that are to follow. At the present time the total assets of this fund amount to 351318.85 Nine students in various higher institutions of learning are being assisted by this fund. It is hoped that some time in the future, the assets of this fund will be largely augmented by succeeding classes, as well as by the gracious recipients of its advantages, and by our most appreciative alumni. Scholarship is a matter of growing importance in this modern technical world. Leadership requires people who are well trained, and the law of the survival of the fit- 2 test is applicable to all business and professional work as never before. Our school aims to train thoroughly, and to inspire every pupil with confidence in his or her suc- cess. lt has been found that approximately ninety-four percent of our students are 5 successful in the courses for which they enroll. The fact that Kane High School is accredited in the Association of the Middle States and Maryland at once indicates a high scholastic standing. As a result of this classification, our graduates can enter 5 practically all institutions of higher learning without examination. The interest in 2 higher education is such that even in this period of financial and industrial depression over thirty percent of last yearls class is now enrolled in various types of colleges and g business schools. 5 Leadership, the quality that signifies initiative, and brings to many boys and girls 5 superior opportunities is an important quality developed by a systematic program of t extra-curricular activities. This program offers fine opportunities for discovering 2 one's aptitudes, developing latent talents, and in addition, it is of tremendous im- portance in helping students adjust themselves to their surroundings. These addi- tional activities constitute some of the most vital features of education. Class work, , however, always stands first in importance. By the use of the point system, no student should find himself overloaded with school work and activities. I The physical well being of our high school students is carefully attended to by l a well organized group of specialists. The annual medical examination of all stu- f dents, the special examination of all athletes, examinations for contagious and infec- Q tious diseases, administration of toxin-anti-toxin and the schick test, and weekly sanitary inspections constitute some of the most important work of the school medical examiner. Much of the work of the examiner is followed up by the school nurse and suggestions given where needed. ln addition, she makes weekly inspections, weighs - all pupils, assists the school doctor, visits homes, and assists in the handling of de- linquents. The dental hygienist gave 1305 prophylaxis, which included practically 1 all high school students. The directors of health education for both boys and girls E offered regular classes in the gymnasium where recreational and corrective exercises were given. About one third of the time spent in the gymnasium was devoted to 5 work in health and hygiene. ' 5 Our school with its many opportunities for social adjustment, academic training, l proper living and the establishment of high ideals and moral standards has been a great force in community life, and it will continue to be even more potent as the importance of education is recognized by parents and teachers devoted to the best interests of boys and girls. Sincerely yours, R. D. WELCH, Superintendent. Tu enly-Iwo Q A i I '.,.a.5,,i ,Q ,,
