school. All pupils above the second'
grade will be required to attend the
school on North Main street. This is
absolutely necessary on acoount of'
a lack of room at the mill village
and the unusual number of pupils ^
in the two lowest grades of that,
school. There will be over 100j
pupils in the first two grades to at-'
tend from the mill village which is c
?
all that the two teachers of that
school can handle successfully. i
High School Courses 't
In addition to the courses offered n
last session a new course in modern b
bnguages will be included in the 'o
curriculum for the new session. Rev. j
A. J. ^Derbyshire will teach French $
in the high school and pupils of the J
tenth and eleventh grades who have j
successfully passed examinations on p
Latin last session will be permitted j
to select between Latin and French!
this session but all pupils of the |
eighth and ninth grades will be re-1
quired to take Latin unless ex-|
cased by the superintendent. Such'^
pupils from these grades that wish'
to take French will meet the super-;
intendent at his office at 12 o'clock!
Q
Monday noon when their requests'
will be heard and acted upon. Un-1
der no circumstances will a pupil be
permitted to take both Latin and ,?
French except upon having been'
giver permission in writing by his ?
parents and also by the superinten-J
dent. Not many pupils are able to
take both these languages in addition
to the regular course without
detriment to their regular work and
parents will kindly bear in mind *
the fact that the average pupil can-1
, j]
not handle more than five major (
studies satisfactorily. j?
