A sponsoring teacher is alâ€" ways present to guide them when guidance is needed, to give instrucâ€" tion when instruction is necessary, and to help the pupils when adult help is wanted. At the beginning of each semesâ€" ter pupils and teachers confer about the types of elubs that should be orâ€" ganized. The interests, needs, and desires of both pupils and sponsorâ€" ing teachers are considered in seâ€" lecting the types of clubs to be ofâ€" fered. A list of proposed clubs is then sent to each home room by the principal. Each pupil makes three thoices of clubs in which he would These choice slips are assorted by like to work during the semester. the principal and each student is given one of his choices. Whenever possible, which is most of the time, the pupil is given his first choice.
