Meetings of the School Board are held regularly on the fourth Monday of every month.

PREPARING THE YOUTH FOR The school has several functions. The chief purpose of a school is to prepare the student for his place in life. By means of an education, he is better able to assume his duty as an active citizen in a democracy. In order to interpret certain phases of educational work, trips are taken and certain projects are performed. For example, history becomes more alive if we are able to have actual dramatizations of important scenes. The death of Caesar and the famous speeches of Antony and Brutus become more real if portrayed. Chemistry and Physics take on new meanings when the student actually sees the brown ring form in a nitrate test or actually smells the odor of hydrogen sulphide. He is more able to comprehend the scientific development in the modern world if he sees them portrayed in panoramic form by a visit to scientific centers. page four
