Junior High Hi kites Eight One English Class Has Unusual Assignment Last week, Monday thru Friday, the “Eight One” English class of North Webster Jr. high was given an unusual assignment. Given as a test by the English teacher, Mr. Dick, the students were told to gather tuts and pieces of junk and stuff to make a machine. Then they were to give it a name.

The purpose of this was to see how people react to the unknown and then write a report on it. Some amazing things resulted. Kindergarten Enrollment Low At Syracuse The Syracuse elementary school held its annual kindergarten round-up in the school’s cafeteria and kindergarten rooms at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, April 21. A total of 48 children enrolled that evening. The children and their parents were welcomed by Robert D. Hamman, principal. Mrs. Frances Eby. school nurse for the Lakeland schools, talked to the parents and children about health procedures to be followed. Miss Karel Hollingsworth, one of the kindergarten teachers, explained the kindergarten handbook, and Mrs. Edith Brice, kindergarten teacher, told the children that since they were not sure which teacher they would have next September, they should visit both kindergarten rooms. She told the children that in each room they would receive an envelope with parts to a puzzle in it. In order to get the complete puzzle, they would need an envelope from each room.

After Mrs. Brice’s talk with the children, parents completed the enrollmentjnformation forms and had them checked against the birth certificates by Mrs. Eby, Mrs. Dolores Jones, Mrs. Carol Darr, Mrs. Esther Weaver, and Mr. Hamman.

Hamman, principal of Syracuse elementary school, has expressed concern about the comparatively small number of children enrolled in kindergarten for next year. Only 48 children were enrolled at the Syracuse kindergarten round-up held Tuesday, April 21. Mr. Hamman feels that there may be several children who missed the roundup. Any parents with children who will be five years old on or before September 1,1970, and who have not been enrolled, should contact the Syracuse elementary school office to obtain the necessary forms. To attend the Syracuse school, the children must reisde with their parents or guardians within the boundaries of Turkey Creek Township.
