Creative School Control UR changing civilization clearly makes new 'ind far-reaching demands on education. It is demanding that our children le u'n to adapt themselves to '1 situation which we, their teachers, can only p'u'ti'1ll5 foresee. rlhis in turn me'u1s the stressinj of '1 new 'md '1 different kind of learning. VVe must turn our pupils loose to shift for themselves in 'L manner 'ind degree true of no preceding rising generation lhis new world of change most of ill needs thought. Pupil enterprises properly directed call forth thinking 'ind they exercise and test it 'is can nothing else. Pupil 'ictivity in 'projects which they feel their own is the factor that must characterize the work of the school of today. lfducation comes from pupil activity 'ind stresses that pupils be lctivt, that pupil enterprises should form the typical unit of the learning process. The school of today must be one of life, of actual experiencing. It demands an N 'K ,,, cA 1.,, , Y , - W1 'HA-gm-f ' ' ' ' I yi .Q . r :X X. 71.1 X -'s ' to . N 1151 - yn .

D , Q The aim of the modern school should be the building of strong-charactered, social- 6' A minded, self-governing persons. It should develop pupils with strong characters who W will insist on what they honestly achieve. At the same time it should develop co- Q fi? operation with a proper 'Agive and take. The goal for education is to continue and ' Q enrich this life process by better thought and act, by making the life of the school more i D 'B intimately a part of life outside. Thus school work will come to bear a close relation ' to life needs felt by the children. . A i , , One of the activities in the school today which is providing actual experiences in 5 Q life situations is the preparation of the Senior Annual. As an instrument of creative 0 'AP school control, school publications give opportunity for expression and publicity for . all kinds and degrees of creative impulse and stress those attitudes and behaviors that M 4 school leaders would make contagious. 9 3 . Q The Annual is a record of the accomplishments of the school and of pupil groups, g O classes, teams, clubs, and other activities of the school. But it may be more. It O '-X should represent an accurate and Sympathetic picture of the spirit and activities of the I ' school, reflecting the tone of the school and betraying faculty-pupil relationship. It 7: should be built around some central theme. 'K -'J The Annual provides opportunities for the pupils who are artistically inclined. Q2 O ln contributions to the school Annual, emphasis is properly given to style of expression is-X and quality of workmanship. This holds true for the designs for the cover, initial e IH letters, and the workmanship of the cuts , of the cartoons, and of the page arrange- X - ments of the text. It is even more true of the editorials and reports of school or com- 'Q G3 munity occasions, of satire and appreciations, and of constructive' proposals and criti- I 0 cisms of aspects of school life. i.-3 ln a wo1'd, school publications are potent for creative school control in the degree ! A-.Q that they promote readiness on the part of teachers, pupils, and parents to contribute as 7 time and energy to the desirable activities of the school community, and that the 4 F editorials, articles, stories, pictures, and illustrations express the community's approval i of desirable behavior. li So it is to be hoped that all who have contributed to the success of this Annual f ' will have participated in an experience real and purposeful which has developed in a X 'F friendly atmosphere of co-operation of teachers and pupils. 76 g M.
