WILMETTE LIFE '] une .8, 1928 · N. T. SUMMER SESSION STARTS MONDAY, JUNE 18 140 Public School Pupils Enroll; Registration to Equal Half That of Winter Term Preliminary registration for the summer school at New Trier High school has now been completed and immediately following commencement final enrollment will be rushed so as to permit the starting of actual class work at the very outst>t of the summer session on June 18. More than 140 graduates of public schools of the town3hip will begin their high school careers on June 18 and, with the added enrollment of New Trier students, it is anticipated that the registration will reaqh 775 people this year, according to Wesley L. Br.own. director of the summer session. This enrollment represent'5 a gain of about seventy-five pupils over last summ er and is nearly half the membership of the regular school year just being completed . Continues Eicht Weeks Summer school, extending as usual for eight weeks_ , from June 18 . to August 10, ·~eems to be becoming more and more popular with High school students. It is arranged so as to have the classes meet between the hours of 8 and 12:30 o'clock or during the cool part of the day and so that the entire session will be over to allow a four weeks' vacat~on from any school work, thus providing an excellent opportunity for educational advancement without proving to be a burden in any way. M aJ}Y of the students. a survey discloses. regard it as a · pleasurable part of their vacation activity. Many who do not need summer school credit arc found in attendance because they enjoy some mental activit\' during the vacation months, or because they wish to accumulate some advance credit as an msurancc against possible sickness, failure or extended ah3ence. Take "Extra" Classes Moreover, many students find that, because of their closely prescrihcd courses, they cannot take some of the special subjects that they desire to take during the winter term and utilize the sumn.1cr '5ession fot· this purpose. There are others who attend summer school because they need e..-xtra credits to enable them to go on with their classes. With the summer school opportunities as now provided, there :is very little neces·3ity-formerly so common_..:. for any stud.ent to take longer than four ye.a rs to complete his high school work. This has proven a boon to those students who find the "going hard" and who would otherwise have to spend five years to complete their high school education. The universal appeal of the summer session is to the good student as welt as to the poor student and the registration is advancing at the rat~" of about one hundred a year. Students who are contemplating entering summer school are urged to register at once so that they may obtain the classes that thev desir.e and to aid in making it possible for the clas:;es to be~in at the very opening of the summer session.
