The ideas of Ralph Waldo Emerson on being self reliant ought to be pretty good in 1976. This is probably what I would like to get across to students — that they should look to themselves for their own success chiefly. The rewards then will be all theirs. Too many school age people are getting to expect more and more breaks. More effort put into the work at hand and less into hoping for a scaled mark or the like, would in the long run be a good guide for almost any of their pursuits. R. O ' Meara I think education is heading for a period of re-examination of goals and methods. A great variety of new teaching methods have evolved in a short time and before many more are incorporated the existing programs need careful evaluation. After this transi- tional period, I think audio- visual learning and teaching will progress towards less time spent by students in direct contact with teachers and more time spent interfacing with educational T.V., in groups or at home.

I RANALD MC CULLOCH Audio- V isual THOMAS MC DERMOTT Driver Education KATHLEEN MC GUIRE Foreign Language SUSAN MC KENNEY Physical Education Students have changed over the years, but the basic learning process is still the same. Education takes place through the inter- action of both the student and the teacher. My job is to help students learn self-confidence and respect for others, and to show them that they have great imagination and skill. J.H. Murray There is a certain reward, as they say, to teaching: which exists, perhaps, in every field of endeavor when one reaches a desired goal. Because of this I enjoy teaching; but, moreover, I enjoy the students with whom I work and find great pleasure in discussing various ideas with them when they think they have gotten me off the subject .

They don ' t make them like they used to. South ' s students this year are as mature and better motivated than usual. J. Savoia School at least makes an attempt to give students a chance to grow up. Extra curricular activities are a way to provide an exellent opportunity to relate socially with less restriction than the normal school day. I don ' t, however, feel they should interfere with other aspects of school life. W.
