Show SCHOOL SUPT- URGES EARLY REGISTRATIONS REGISTRA-TIONS THIS YEAR Jordan District Schools will open Monday August 31st. Every child in the District of school age should report re-port promptly at 9 a. m. for registration, registra-tion, high school students as well as grade students. , The student who enters late is always al-ways at a disadvantage. He works a hardship upon himself, the teacher, the other children, and the taxpayer. On himself, because he puts himself behind his class from the beginning; on the teacher, because she must spend extra time and effort to try to bring him up to grade; on the other children, child-ren, because he is a drag in the class and tends to retard them all and to take the teacher's time which belongs to all alike; on the taxpayer, because he is frequently retained in his grade and has to repeat the grade thus costing cost-ing the taxpayer two years of expense to complete one year of work. This is unfair to the pupil who enters late, to the teacher, to the other children, and to the taxpayer. Let us be fair to everyone "and register re-gister on the first morning of school. We are opening early, and wish to cooperate co-operate with the farmers when the beet harvest comes on. D. C. Jensen Supt. of Schools. |
