MCHENRY SHOP IN Teachers in the Junior high have been spending much of their unscheduled time working on curriculum revision. They have been analyzing their present course offerings, hoping to revise course offerings to fit the current needs of the modern Junior high school students. This revised curriculum will be incorporated with modular scheduling during the academic year of 1968-69. Modular scheduling is a way of saying that not all subjects need the same amount of time; nor do all areas need to meet five days a week. Students' and faculty need flexibility built into their day in order that the needs and interests of this age will be better provided for. Modular scheduling will enable the students to have more independent time of studying various subjects throughout the school day and more time to concentrate on topics interesting to them year. throughout the school Women Of oose FRIGIDAIRE SPECIAL Friif Proof FPD-15TL 14.6 cu. ft.
