Christian Education At School Continues Enrollment Increase Enrollment continues to increase at McHenry's newest school - Fox Valley Christian school. Procedure for enrollmen' includes viewing a slide presentation in which the principles of Accelerated Christian Education are explained. An interview is scheduled with the pastor- principal;, The Rev. Virgle i Chappell. Testing for placement will begin Aug. 29 at 10 a m. and continue Aug. 30. The school officially opens Sept 3, at 8 a.m. Parents orientation will be held at 7:30 p.m. Sept. 3. "Some parents have the mistaken impression that our school is only for the exceptional child," commented Mrs. Leo Revak, member of the new school's guiding c o m m i t t e e . ' ' T h i s misunderstanding is most unfortunate. We would rather believe that our school would take the normal child and lead him to become exceptional in his accomplishment and development." The school employs a system of goals, incentive and recognitions which help the child move toward independent adult maturity. Each child will become involved in a reading development program where speed and comprehension are desired goals. Parents are encouraged to call the school at 385-0106 for a presentation of the slide program.

Already the large group has been reduced into one long line. jx Alex Thomas crosses the finish line as three timers look with amazement at their stop watches to learn that he covered the 1- mile race in a time of 38:07. ;*# | Over 7 miles, crossing the Fox river at two different points, thirty-eight competitors ran through the scenic McHenry-Johnsburg country­ side in the first annual McHenry Marathon. A McHenry police squad cleared the way for the runners and the McHenry Area Rescue squad followed to be ready if needed. Four division titles were at stake, grade schoolers, frosh- soph, junior-senior and an open category for persons out of high school. The grade school competitors ended their race at the S^-mile mark in Johnsburg while all others finished back in McHenry, about 712 miles. N i n e t e e n - y e a r - o l d A l e x Thomas captured the lead position early in the race and then led all the way to win it in 38:07, which is an average of over 11 miles an hour. Mayor Joe Stanek presented Alex with the overall trophy for his effort. Trophies and medals were awarded to first through fifth place finishers in each category and all who made it to the wire received a ribbon of participation.
