JUNIOR SCHOOL DAILY PROGRAM ENTIRELY SEPARATE Although this department, with its own weII-quaIi- fied faculty, its own excellent buildings and equip- ment, and its own grounds and athletic fields, is entirely separate from the High School, it occupies a position of great benefit in connection with the Senior School. It carries with it the prestige and resources of the Academy and makes use of many of the High Schoolis facilities. The ,lunior Cadets make full use of the library, gymnasium, swimming pool, rifle range and tennis courts at hours which do not conflict with the use of this equipment by older boys. MODIFIED PROGRAM The Junior Cadets participate in practically every type of activity offered in the High School but each activity is carefully modified to suit their size and age. A well-balanced program is filled with whole- some stimulating activities in both work and play and is under the constant personal supervision of members of the faculty. MODIFIED MILITARY TRAINING A separate military organization is maintained for ,lunior Cadets. The unit is officered by older mem- bersof the Junior School and takes part in all types of military maneuvers on a military basis. The program calls for 45 minutes per day of drill and instruction. It covers rifle marksmanship, military courtesy, calisthenics, hygiene, drills in barracks formations and close order drill. The ,lunior School takes part in all MMA battalion parades and reviews. Discipline is light but firm and covers all activities. COURSE OF STUDY The course of study in thc ,Iunior School, which ex- tends from the fourth through the eighth grade, is planned after the Missouri State Course of Study, supplemented by practices of the best schools in nearby cities and those of eastern preparatory schools. The course is designed to prepare students for entrance into the MMA Iligh School or any other standard high school. SMALL CLASSES-The .Iunior School classes are limited to less than halt' the nulnber of pupils found in the average public school class. This permits individual help at all times, enables the faculty to know exactly what each boy has accomplished each day, and gives them an accurate understanding of each boy's needs. Two hours of supervised study- one in the afternoon and one at ni ht-give the average boy plenty of time to get his Icssons. There is an extra period each day for all students who require additional help.

This is due in part to the high type of families from which these boys come and to the atmosphere of refinement and culture in which they have lived. WEEKLY LETTER Each week the cadets are required to write a letter to their homes. This letter is corrected by the teachers and serves as an English and Penmanship exercise. TERMS AND EXPENSES The Academy bill for .lunior Cadets for the entire year is 5E14t50.00, due upon en- trance but, for convenience, may be paid as stated on Page 54. The uniform outfit, described in detail on Page 54-, costs 3250.00 and is to be paid for on receipt of statement.
