Parent-Teacher Liaison Reginais Home and School Association is fast following in the footsteps of its predecessor, the Mothers' Club. The organization enables and encourages parents to meet their daughters' teachers and talk over problems, marks, attitudes, etc. The regular meeting, on the first Tuesday of each month, is divided into three parts: the business agenda, some form of program, and a social hour. Every parent has the opportunity to share his ideas regarding school procedure during the business program. The presentation of a one- act play, White lrisf' by the Regina Players, highlighted this years program of entertainment. Guest speakers such as Very Reverend Monsignor D. Joseph Corbett, and Miss Catherine Rich, Regis- trar of Catholic University, have presented topics of interest to mothers and fathers of teenage girls. The Chapel Fund received a sizeable contri- bution from the association as a result of its annual fund-raising project. A dance held at St. Bernardls Crystal Room provided an evening of entertainment for all members as well as a good profit. j , t Q-ff Mother st.

Realizing that education is a vital factor in the modern world and wishing to become apostles, zealous students work to attain Achievement throu h Knowledge Y 'N x S if if v --I i 1 66 ' 97 Teens in a royal atmosphere render homage as they reap the bene- fits of Regina's academic ideals. Through the carefully planned curriculum at Regina, students devel- op spiritually, mentally, socially and physically. While the Queen keeps silent vigil from her throne, her sub- jects are trained in the essentials of royal living. Built upon a rock foundation and supported by pillars of strength, the school seeks to promote tolerance, clarity of vision, the proper evaluation of human personality and the thought- ful pursuit of truth. These qualities are all based on genuine love for Christ the King. ln the academic, a college pre- paratory course, those who wish to go on to higher education find numerous opportunities to enrich their minds. Besides the regular classes, there are lectures, field trips and outside exam- inations geared to enliven and increase the intellectual caliber of each one. Business-minded girls are en- couraged to take a commercial course, as it teaches typewriting, stenography and also science, business law, book- keeping, office practice, and the use of machines so necessary in the modern business world. For girls who are inclined to- wards culinary arts or interior design, Regina has inaugurated a home eco- nomics course. It offers everything from the study of fabrics to home man- agement and child care. Freshman year is a year of preparation. The young student grows accustomed to the prevailing royal at- mosphere. ln the sophomore year, stress is placed upon the required mor- al foundation to continue on her jour- ney to the Eternal Kingdom. In the junior year, maturity in thought is the specific aim, and senior year finds a girl pondering and preparing for her true vocation in life. By the wisdom of the teacher, and the ambition of those taught, the students, search for happiness is made easier because problems are solved daily. From the lowliest freshman to the loftiest senior, a firm gaze rests on a most heavenly model, as each one journeys onward to her ideal. ima af glclucafing flue 0L Wall !0l' Cl gui cali
