Several people have talked to me about the recent article on the "open classroom." After rereading re-reading the article several times, I can understand how some might get the wrong impression im-pression of the "open classroom." Rather than dwell on the contents of this article, I would like to talk a little bit about what we are trying to accomplish in Nebo School District and assure you that we intend to work only on those programs that show great promise for better education. First, all of us want happy, healthy boys and girls; this is what life is all about. But there are many things that help people become happy, healthy individuals. in-dividuals. The school program helps in three basic areas. The academic area, the area encompassing en-compassing the learning of specific skills and the area involved in-volved with culture, values, beauty, etc. It is not our intent to water down the basic academic program in the District and we assure you that we are going to do the very best job we can of teaching the basic skills of reading and writing as well as many varied physical and occupational oc-cupational skills.

For instance, in-stance, English teachers work hard to create an appreciation for great lieterature, while other teachers actively engage students in art work, leather crafts, music, drama, etc. In this area of values, aesthetics and culture, I think even the roughest, toughest oi our boys and tomboys have need to be exposed to some of the finer things in our society that bring enjoyment and pleasure, but not all children need or want the same types of programs. We must also remember that children are quite different and to run every child through exactly the same program would certainly be a big mistake. We all realize about learning, largely shaped by their parents. Different parents want different things taught. Schools find it difficult to teach things that will be useful to so many different kinds of students. We must as parents, teachers and religious leaders, try to instill in our young people a value system that will provide individual contentment. This may be one of out greatest needs in order to live in a technological world. Parents, teachers and community leaders must work as a team if we are to give our children the educational op portunities they need and deserve. Besides the usual three R's, reading, writing and 'rithmetic here are some of the goals of our schools in Nebo: i a. Aiding the individual in developing a good self-concept. b. Meeting the learner's needs according to his own life style and environment. c. Helping the learner to meet life successfully now and in the future. d. Providing each learner with opportunity to make choices according to his interests, in-terests, needs and abilities. e. Providing each child with an opportunity to be successful. f. Developing attitudes, understandings, un-derstandings, skills and habits necessary to function well in society. g. Motivating the student and creating a desire for continued learning. h. Moving each child at his own rate of progress within his own unique pattern of learning. i. Providing opportunities for basic concept development and valuing. j. Providing opportunities for, acquiring essential learnings. This is what we are talking1 about and working toward. We.( are not talking about a program where children do exactly what they want to do, when they want to do it. We are talking about programs that try to meet, First Security still pays all-time high interest on savings.

Despite an apparent freshman enrollment decrease in America's four-year colleges and universities, new attendance at-tendance records again have been set this year in total enrollments. This information was received today from University of Cincinnati Cin-cinnati by Brigham Young University which participated in a survey made by the Ohio school. Dr. Garland G. Parker, University of Cincinnati vice provost for admissions and records and nationally known authority on collegiate enrollments, made the report for the 52nd annual survey by ,the education journal, "School and Society." Included were 1200 institutions in the United States and Puerto Rico, covering accredited universities, four-year colleges, upper-division and senior colleges, graduate and professional schools, and junior colleges administered by schools in these categories. Grand total enrollment in the 1200 schools was 6,247,595 (a 2.6 percent increase). Full-time enrollment was 4,669,442 (up 3.2 percent while part-time enrollment totalled 1,578,153 ( 0.9 percent increase). Freshman enrollment declined 0.7 percent. In the past 20 years freshman enrollment decreased only in 1951 and 1966. Largest percentage gain in freshmen was shown in the nursing category, 26.7 percent. Agriculture freshmen increased by 10.5 percent while arts and sciences first-year students gained only 0.3 percent. Declines in freshman enrollment were exhibited by engineering schools, with a 16.8 percent drop-off; schools of education, with a 14.1 percent decline; and business administration, ad-ministration, where first year registration was off slightly, 1.7 percent. Dr. Parker cited several factors in the slowdown of freshman fresh-man enrollment, including deferred admissions, a lessening likelihood of military obligations, recession circumstances, cir-cumstances, and increasing doubts about the value of a college education. While state and public systems and large private colleges and universities showed increases, categories declining in full-time enrollment included 32 teachers colleges and 43 technoiigical and professional schools. Attributing the drop in teachers college enrollments to an over-supply of trained teachers, Dr. Parker noted, "It . is ironic that when perhaps for the first time in history we have, except for a few specialized fields, an adequate supply of trained teachers, the richest nation in the world cannot affort to or chooses not to hire enough teachers to staff properly its schools for the better education of our children." The overall enrollment increase, in-crease, Dr. Parker said, indicates in-dicates that American higher education still is well regarded by its students and patrons despite factors working against it. "It behooves the colleges and universities to take this evidence of confidence and support seriously," he added, "and continue vigorous efforts to introduce reforms where needed and to improve wherever possible." "Even in Grandpa's time there was something to make you sleep. They called it work."
