Getting Together in the Granite school district next month will un- TIACHERS visit the home of every pupil In the Granite schools The plan sponsored by the Granite Teachers association and designed to narrow the gap between the home and the school has infinite possibilities ' It takes cognizance of the personal equation in education and is bound to result In a closer alliance and a great er understanding between the two greatest factors in publiefprog-res- s the home' and the school For ton many years far too many parents have regarded the educational responsibility as one belonging distinctly to the government They have been Inclined to ignore their own responsibilities and have left the teachers and their children pretty much to their own resources It is that if the course of education is to be true it must be continuous The schools and the homes must work together In the past sporadic attempts to bring a closer relationship have been made but without general success largely perhaps because the initiative was left to parental interest The Granite teachers reverse the process and determine t0 viait each and every home in the district that they may be bet- - te teachers that tb?y may better serve their patrons " 'Out of this contact should tome a new relationship The gap that has existed In the past should be dosed in the measure that parents embrace this opportunity for greater service for their children It should be the means of encouraging parents to a little more attention to the work of the schools and to theirpay own responsibility for the education of their children The Granite teach-ehave undertaken a prodigious task one which adds much to their labors without 'additional reimbursement They are to be Mmmraded for this dnselfish igterest for in it reflect the they ' et thq £ducata&— self-evide- nt rs '?r 'I 1 1 t 1 I y 7 ’s ” I ' Levi-Natha- b a pre-Hitl- t J r I t d We Ship to All Points in Utah Idaho and Nevada do to a trumpet!"
