Zniof- guulh. Zllmmwu, The seniors appearing on this page are the last group to graduate under the eleven year system which has been in operation since the secondary schools were first instituted. With all the merits of the old system of eleven years, there has been an ever present felt need for a broader and more expanded program for both elementary and high school pupils . Without a lengthy discussion of the new program we may merely mention a few of the immediate objectives of this system. Since only a small percentage of our graduates go to college or take any form of higher specialized work, it was felt that a broader field of work should be covered in the high school. as well as greater emphasis upon the fundamentals already being taught: with an extra year both of these factors can be met. Many boys and girls are leaving high school at a very younglage, and it is felt that maturity in years may make them much more stable mentally so that they may cope with a new social w world into which they have been launched. 5
