In the opinion of Mrs. Leona McCully and the Senior Class Council, seniors can not only be trusted but also would do their best to prevent un- necessary absence. The Class of 1938 tried out this plan. Seniors were allowed to apply to the Senior Council for privilege cards. By signing the card each senior expressed interest in the experiment and promised to do his best to prevent absence from classes. The results of this experiment, still unknown, should be extremely interesting. If it proves success- ful, there would be no reason why more such privi- leges shouldn't be granted, even to lower classmen. The success of the Senior Honor System would ulti- mately lead to a more progressive high school, in which all students learn good citizenship through ex- perience in assuming responsibility. 11
