The Juab Middle School principal will report back to the Juab School District Board of Education in November on the block schedule proposal and the way it ' is functioning. I think the block schedule has many benefits for the middle school, said Steve Olsen, principal. Olsen said he was recommending an AB schedule for the year. This moves students through seven classes over an alternatperiod, he said. ing Each class, he said, is 90 min utes long except the last class of the day. That dass is 45 min- utes long and is held daily He showed board membera the schedule which was for a student who wanted to take math, science, health, physical education, history, art aid English. On the A day the student would take math, science, health and PE. The next day, the remaining dasses would be taken. The schedule would switch from A to B every other day. "Improved learning should be the result of the new schedule, said Olsen. Research indicates, he said, that a block plan allows more focus on active learning and student results were a higher retention of information and a deeper understanding of the subjects taught. I had a very positive experience running a test program on the block schedule last year, said Sharon Butterfield, teacher e, Esaird vice-preside- .

LaDaun Ray and Patti Bowles, officers of the JHS Booster Club, requested permission to build a snack shack with restrooms at the school football field. The walk to the facilities at the high school is too far for many fans and is inconvenient, said Ray. She said citizens had been polled and were in support of having restrooms closer to the field. Costs had been investigated and were estimated at approximately $7,100. We discussed the project with Randy McKnight, Nephi City Administrator, and he had offered his support, said Ray. We have adequate money to fund the project and will not need additional funding support from the district. Wright said he had some concerns with the costs. I think there will be difficulties involved with running plumbing from the school to the shack, he said. . two-da- y Principal Olsen has the authority to implement the schedule without a board vote, said Kirk Wright However, the board does want a report on indicators as to the results ofthe new schedule at the Wednesday, September 3,1897 Nephi, Utah tZrats-fc&- rt ees were expected to enforce the peltries in the document All stu- dents, parents and guardians ccst understand that unacceptable behavior will not be tolerat- Kss&i City Librery nstv ed.

Can shaving make my acne the occasional small pimple to large scarring cysts on the face and back. Varying degrees of acne can be put into the following three categories: Mild acne, which is characterized by occasional breakouts and blemishes and treated with products. Moderate acne, which results in frequent and constant breakouts and is treated with stronger, prescription lotions. And severe acne, which can result in painful, large pimples or cysts on the face and other parts of the body. Severe acne requires medical treatment worse? Yes. Men with acne who shave have been shown to irritate their acne, which may increase discomfort. You should try both an electric and safety razor to see which is more comfortable.
