Seventh Graders Qpen New Doors Crossing the threshold of new ex- periences, seventh graders left their elementary classes for an undiscovered sphere of new ideas and activities. Seventh graders were introduced to various roles in their student govern- ment. They experienced committee work, headed committees in planning, and participated in activities with much enthusiasm. Students formed decoration, re- freshment, clean-up and program committees in planning their canteens and socials. Winter Wonderland and Spring Serenade were a few of the fun- filled social events. They also enjoyed a picnic at Kailua Beach Park in No- vember. Seventh grade classes took turns in setting up bulletin board displays in their hallway. Here they had an op- portunity to share their creative abi- lity with the school and to add a spark of life to their drab hallway. A Valen- tine display in February was an ex- ample of many attractive seasonal dis- plays. Students got better acquainted dur- ing their quiet hours after lunch. During this period they played scrab- ble, checkers and other quiet games. These well informed students kept up with Hawaii's statehood progress during the year. Having planned ahead of time a statehood celebration program of dancing and outdoor games, students were ready when statehood was declared to welcome this important event. Not satisfied in knowing just about the statehood situation, they studied in detail how a bill is passed in our Territorial Legislature. Their re- source person for this was Representa- tive james Ward Russell. The pegged units for these seventh graders were Global Understandings, Understanding Myself, Knowing Our Community, and Knowing Our School.

Growing up and liking it is not always a simple task for our youth. rogress Means
