c t ln today's day and age strong emphasis is put on evaluating. lt seems as ifevery- thing has to be studied and evaluated to determine how good or bad it is and to compare it with others. The Steering Committee chairman Ms. Helen Schnare. engaged in a self-study of the programs, practices, and facilties at SCHS. This year questionaires were given to students and their parents to lind out from them their parents to lind out from them their views on the effectiveness of SCHS. In the fall of l975 a review ofthe self-study will be conducted by an outside team selected by the North Central Asso- ciation, an accrediting agency that evalu- ates schools every seven years. Group evaluations are found at SCHS in clubs, activities and classes. So-called brains get into National Honor Society. Music groups and band groups are consid- ered cliques . People involved in sports, cheerleaders and athletes are considered socies. Students from middle-class fam- ilies evaluate students from high- class 1 f lvl - I the 1974 ,.4' 7-.Q o l l families or low-class families. How many times is it heard. They are nice people but .. Then a list ofreasons are incited. Starting from grade school, students have been given tests to determine their ability or talent. In grade school they were called achievement tests, By the time a person reached 9th grade, they took these tests every year. ln 9th grade it was the DAT, Differential Aptitude Test, 10th grade, ITED, lowa Test of Educational Development. lltli grade, Missouri SCAT. School and College Ability Test. When a person becomes a senior if the SCAT is not acceptable to the college of their choice. they take either the ACT or SAT tests which help determine if they can be accepted at a college. Then Advanced Placement Tests or CLEP tests are available to those students who believe they can do the work in some basic college courses. If they do well on these tests they will be placed in more ad- vanced college courses. How do you compare? Y Crea, ,Q ,.,.
