yhadwm ewlzbe enemy al Wmhaegy JVWMZ Rob comments on North s progress Senior Rob Compton feels that a great change has occurred since he has been going to North The major change is that the original concept of open classroom and its freedom is regressing back to ward the original traditional-type teaching. An ex- ample of this is the new wall construction which has created a stricter atmosphere. In the process of doing this, Rob added, The students and the ad- ministrators have grown farther apart. Many of these attitudinal changes could be attributed to the new trend in educational philosophies. Rob has no- ticed that the freedom he once had in the school can no longer be taken advantage of.

Mr. West notes changes in school Throughout the eight years at Parkway North, English teacher Larry West has experienced changes. He stated, lf this isn't the finest high school in the state, you'll have to name the one that is better. I hope the students will realize it and dern- onstrate some school spirit. Mr. West also feels the students have changed. He added, The student of the sixties could be charac- terized as the rebel with a cause. The student today is clearly rnore pacified, less angry with society, and looking more toward working within the framework of society for success. For the most part the changes have been necessary and beneficial. -p...r - '17, 1.
