 May this opening paragraph serve as an invitation to all rural eighth grade graduates to attend high school. To-day it is necessary to have a high school education in order to meet requirements for practically any job. The benefits derived from four years of training above the eighth grade will prove to be of immeasurable value in years to come. Here are some comments from various members of the senior classes in the past, concerning the value of a high school education: “My high school days were the happiest and most helpful of any that I have spent.” “My high school education has been a most valuable aid to me.” “I urge every boy and girl to have at least a high school education.” To those who are planning to enter high school this fall, we extend a special invitation to consider the merits of the Meadow Grove Public Schools. High scholastic rating—Fine selection of courses—College Preparatory—Commercial—Normal Training—Excellent teaching Corps—The best of instructional material—Unusually broad extra-corricula program—Wholesome and pleasant atmosphere in the school—Physically, morally and mentally clean student body—Fully accredited—Outstanding record of successful graduates—A Board of Education that recognizes the needs of the schools and gives its full cooperation in that direction—A progressive community that takes pride in its school and a school in which the pupil is recognized as an individual and is treated accordingly. A hearty welcome awaits you in Meadow Grove. Avail yourself of a splendid opportunity. Give the school the benefit of any doubt as to your attitude of liking or disliking to attend. You can always drop if you are dissatisfied with the work. But remember, failure to start now probably means the end of your school days.
