SOMH IMPORTANT INFORMATION AK to tho High School in Walhalla. Eleventh Onde I? Needed, * Superintendent Marion K. Frost was in town several days this week arranging for the opening of tho fall session of the Walhalla High School. He has returned to Spartan burg, but. expects to move his family to Wal halla during Ibo next, week or lon days, and will occupy tho Dukes cot tage on (Miurch street. School will open on tho fl rsl Mon day in September, which will Ins tho fi th day of the month. All pa ron is arc urged to send their children in on the brat day if possible, in order that the work may be uniformly bo gun. lt is further hoped that wo can have n large attendance in tho High School from tho Kural Graded Schools in our surrounding districts. Wo intend, If attendance will justify it, to put on the eleventh grado. This is essential for two reasons: For those desiring to go away to college the work done in the eleventh grade ls necessary before students will bo allowed to enter. To stop short of lt therefore, entails expense of going to a preparatory school for work that wo should do at homo. The second reason ls that those desiring to leach may do so when they obtain a certificate from tho eleventh grade and attend an author ized summer school. This work enti tles them to a State certificate, so i for this class of students it is placing a handicap on our school not to bavo tho eleventh grade. So WO strongly urge those who tool; the tenth grade work hero last year to como hack and take the eleventh grade this year. While wo urge them, wo cordially invite any others wv., will to come in and join us. We must have one hundred in the High School next year to procure State aid. ( We aro also trying to arrange to put in a commercial business course, including shorthand, typewriting, business forms, etc. Your. presonco will help in that. All students In the summer school from outside the district will be re quired to pay two dollars per month tuition, payable nine dollars at- tho beginning of each half af tho school session, and all students In town and outside will be required to pay tho usual incidental fee of fifty cents each nt the beginning of each half of tho school session. Further Information will bo pub lished later. DOA RD OF TRUSTEES. CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.
