I1 UL gh scnool age living in the town- ship have had an opportunity to at- tend the summer school free of charge, but this year, because of the unmcertainty of the, tax situation and the necessity for a drastic,,cut. in the budget, the New' Trier board of edu- ,cation felt that it could not continue the. stmimer s chool on a free basis. Instead a charge of $10. will be made for each subject a student takes in the summer school. Usually:the student takes two subjects during the summer, making the total cost of the work this, year $20. This is about 'a third, of the. normal. tuition, raté cbarged students living outside the township during the regular schoô:l term. Tuition Chare o The board of educationeis able to [offer the: summer work at a lower rate because of'- the fact ta there, are no extra expenses during the warm months', such as light, heat and extra-ctttrietjar activities. The faculty niembers. also teach more subjects in the summner school. Practically the same courses will be offered as last sumnier. The school again *will be in charge of W. L. Brown, director of reference and ré- search at New Trier. Sessions will be froin 8 o'clock in the morning until 12:40. The att'endance this year is ex- pected. to be considerably smaller than in the past. Last year it was more than 900. An enroilment' of about 500 is 'anticipated this summer. In ià maing the announcement about summner schoQl this week Mr. Brown said that it ii an excellent opportunity for the' stucient to engage in a com- l)ined program of study and recrea- tion. jobs for boys and girls of high school age will be scarce this summer, and .many of them wbo have the op-' portunity will be glad. to spend. part of the summer earning extra credits towards graduation.
