Or.e change from the past is in the matter of uniformity of school texts in all schools of the district. In the past the different schools, and even teachers of the same subject within a school, have chosen the texts they favored for the subjects taught. Beginning this fail uniform texts will be used throughout the district in math-ematics, health, driver educa-tion, science, biology, chemistry, physics zoology and physiology in all senior high schools. Next year the text standardization program will extend to other areas including, social science, English and modern languages, the arts, and other areas of study. In connection with the text standardization program the district has also inaugerated a new and less expensive program for student text procurement. Because of the volume number of new texts the purchase cost is considerably reduced and for those who prefer to rent their books the rental charge is also provided a a reduced figure. Under the state education program the seventh and eighth grades of the junior high school receive their texts free of charge, but for the ninth grade too, the students will notice a less expensive and more con-venient plan for getting their text books. The book rental for ninth grade will be $36 for the school year, included at the time of payment of registra-tion fees in a $12 fee which will cover everything except a few lab fees. The entire registration fees to be in effect this fall for the respective divisions will be as follows: Senior High Schools, Student body fees, $7.75; library, auxiliary and locker rental, $2.25, total registration fee, $10. Ninth grade, regis-tration fee, (including book rentals) $12. Seventh and eighth grades, registration fee, $6.50. These figures do not include the special lab fees, such as towels (for physical education), $2.00; food classes, industrial, fine arts and fine crafts, and home making, $1.00 each; and typewriting--, 50 cents. - - ; s j . : , .,,. . j .: r i' .:'.'.
