ng jchoola, The belief that every child has a right to a sound education in our public schools is basic to our Ameri- can way of life. Because an all-around education is a part of the American child's heritage, the teachers in our schools are devoting every effort to give Sharonis children a balanced program of education. Their objective is to develop enlightened, self-reliant, articulate citizens. ' og flue, ' , jcluwl just as a river can rise no higher than its source, so a student can rise only as high as his aim. The pupil who has the ambition and the initiative to succeed is the one who does so, simply because he has a goal toward which to guide his work. He sees a point to his preparation. He realizes what he will need in ascending the ladder to that goal. I-Ie knows that precious time is being wasted should he detour. His climb may be a long and tiring one, the rungs straight and narrowg but he always looks up, ahead to the future. And finally, diligently and without hesitation, he attains his goal or purpose in life. S. N. Currier C. M. Musser .asian I I O of ffm, sawn Walking along a road that is familiar and known to hold no dangers inspires fear in no one. The same is true of the student walking along the path of know- ledge, if he does not plunge too far ahead of the known but will develop his abilities. Secondary education is still developing and is attempting to refine its present procedures and to adjust them to current social change. As a part of this system of education our students must adjust their thinking to better equip themselves with the attitudes and the means by which one can educate himself to use his abilities and opportunities.
