Piedmont High School Lawndale, N. C. as to impart knowledge of text-books, and no effort is spared to teach a proper appreciation of each one’s rights and duties as members of society, and to educate the heart as well as the brain in those Christian graces that constitute true nobility of character. THOROUGHNESS It has always been the aim of the School to do honest, thorough work. The present Faculty especially endorse thoroughness, and it will be their constant care to see that the student masters the subject studied before they permit it to be laid aside. Yet we do not believe that an education consists of simply an accumulation of facts and figures, but it means the harmonious development of the powers given us by the Creator. REGULATIONS The regulations are few and simple. Students are encouraged to control themselves and to regard the rights of others. They are, however, expected to render prompt and cheerful obedience to teachers at all times. Those who are not willing to comply with our discipline are not solicited to matriculate. REPORTS At the end of the first and third quarters, reports of the general progress in studies and upon deportment will be sent to parents. The quarterly reports are not intended to indicate the precise grade of scholarship. At the end of each term parents will be sent a report show¬ ing the precise grade of scholarship, deportment, absence from recitations and religious exercises during the term. The reports are a means of communication between par¬ ents and teachers, and may be of great service in stimu¬ lating the pupils. twenty-one
