KM 4. e -'RFU G L. Life is Progressive g Progress is the keynote of the modern world. Never before in the history has man- kind been so progressive. New inventions, development of mental alertness, and the achievement of higher standards all tend to send the world forward to a goal never be- fore accomplished. just as the field of science, with its marvelous inventions has pro- gressedg just as the field of business has gone forward with amazing results, so has the field of education advanced with astonishing rapidity. Rockford high school has long justly prided itself on its ability to keep up with the times. VVhenever a new and more efficient method of accomplishing this aim has been introduced, Rockford high school has always been among the first to adopt it. A recent introduction of this sort is the Home Room System, which has two distinct advantages: namely, personal and administrative. The small group in each room enables each student to come in close contact and form friendships with several students whom he ordinarily would not meet. Where the administration of routine is concerned, details such as notices, banking, and making out of electives are efficiently and quickly taken care of with little confusion. Another feature has beene introduced recently in the sixty-minute period of study. Daily proving its reliability and efficiency the advantage of supervised study is proving priceless to the student, and is enabling the more brilliant student to progress in accord- ance with his own ability, while the slower student has the opportunity to study with his instructor. The teacher of today realizes that as the pupil progresses, he must also. As a result of this understanding, revision of the courses of study has occupied the attention of the teachers who study and report their work in a method of practical application. The world will continually progress and Rockford high school with itg but always the school will hold fast to the fundamental truths, beautiful ideals, and traditions that have so long represented it.
