XX - Non Scholae sed Vitae Discimusn . . . The old medieval proverb used here as the title clearly points out the reason for which we study. We don't learn languages and mathematics just for the sake of earning a report card grade, but to prepare ourselves to go out into the world with a thorough understanding of our purpose in life. Here we attempt to discover what that purpose will be. We learn for life through both work and play. We discover that it is fun working with our minds to solve problems large and small. By experience we learn what should and should not be done, and by repetition We learn the basic fundamentals of life. Life is not and should not be all work. Through both work and play we are able to become well-rounded individuals. By participating in sports and club activi- ties we learn to enjoy working with others. Participating in these activities, we begin to realize that it is more important to have .good sportsmanship rather than a consistently winning team. Many activities are formed solely for enjoyment and thus are enjoyed by nearly everyone. The next time we receive our grades, let's ask our- selves whether up until now we have prepared for school rather than life.
