| Starting
Monday, Sept. 16, and lasting for three days, all ninth
grade students at Glenridge will take part in a county-wide
testing program.
The
purpose of these tests is to discover the individual student's
weaknesses and strengths in every phase of his education.
Each student is urged to do the best so that the results
will be useful to him as a measure of his achievement.
When
the scores are returned students will be called into the
Dean's Offices individually, told their scores, and advised
about their future scholastic endeavor.
These
scores in no way affect a change in grades or class placement.
Their purpose is to point out a student's trouble spots
before he takes a similar test in the twelfth grade. The
twelfth grade tests will determine whether a student will
be admitted to college, or be eligible for a college scholarship. |

At
one time laziness was a quality to be avoided, but now
... even the cars are shiftless.
Heard
during a math exam.
"How
far are you from the correct answer?"
"Two
seats."
