PTA Officers tiwifk rein shares n America Pay Visit to High School BUY By Marian Jeppson Officers of the South Box Elder Regional PTA and of the Box Elder High School PTA along with Supt- Walter D. Talbot, paid a surprise visit to Principal E. W. Payne and the classrooms of the Box Elder High school last Thursday, Nov. 12, as one of their activities in recognition of National Education Week. This visit was 0 acceptance of an invitation issued by Principal Payne earlier to visit the school at any time.

The purpose of the visit was to find ways and means of bettering the PTA. The officers felt that 'his purpose coujd best be served by observing school procedure under normal conditions. Study PTA Attendance The visit began with' a meeting held in Principal Paynes .office where the problem of how to get more parents to attend PTA meetings was discussed. The general feeling expressed was that the greater the parent particiuation in PTA meetings, the better the school will be. It will take enthusiasm and interest on the part of every parent to help the PTA help their children. One of the major problems of getting parents to attend these meetings seems to be that the students don want them to come. The students seem to feel that they are forming together to work against them. A need to make the pupils understand that the parents and teachers are meeting together to discuss ways of making the school more pleasant for the students, is evident. Office Personnel Reports 11 members of Principal Paynes office staff made a report to the committee on their work. Mrs. Beth Norman, secretary, explained how accurate accounts of each student were kept. She stressed the idea of how important these records were to students in their future lives. Employers are calling up evehy day to check on these records, it was pointed out. Mrs. Norman felt that through pTA, parents should learn how important these records are so that they can help their children tpake a good record for themselves. Leon Johnson and Miss Norma Rohde, counselors, were called In separately to explain their duties. They are there to help students plan their courses and make adjustments in their class schedules. They help the students to obtain scholarships to various colleges.
