president Brenda Rhodes. The group prepared an opinionnaire. which the SWAP attenders filled out about their experiences and added some comments such as: “I hope all of the students realize how helpful they have been on this day and I am pleased with their behavior and help.” "It (SWAP day) gave me an understanding of what my children experience during a day at school that nothing else could do. 1 now respect my children s right to be tired — knowing their day has been a serious one, under work, time and peer pressure

instead of a carefree day full of easy fun and games. I also feel it’s an opportunity for the children to know their parents care to know of their world.” Almost the entire attendance of SWAP day felt the day was worthwhile and a beneficial experience, with only one individual disagreeing. The SWAP day was not inconvenient for 408 persons to work into their schedule, was inconvenient for 22 others. And 425 of those who participated would like to see the day continued, with only two wishing it to

be discontinued. In reply to a question if the SWAP day gave them a better understanding of the school, than an evening tour of the building and guest speakers would, 425 said yes. And 423 felt the day gave them a better understanding of what a student experiences during a school day. Enough time was given in each class to inform them about the student program said 424. And seven thought the time spent to inform about the program was insufficient. Tabulation of the written comments by adults attending SWAP day is as follows: Excellent faculty knowledge and understanding, 22 Have SWAP day next year, 18 I enjoyed SWAP Day, good experience, 14 SWAP day helped me understand the curriculum, school programs, 14 Lunch time was too short, 14

SWAP day was a worthwhile experience, 13 Students were helpful, good attitude, 13 SWAP day was inconvenient, but my son, daughter was worth it, 12 Beautiful building, 10 More time between classes is needed, 10 More teachers should have explained the course program, 5 SWAP day helped me understand my child better, 4 SWAP day should be only half a day, 4 Teachers should have had us do more exercise, class activities instead of just discussing the course outline, 3 Have SWAP day every other year, 3 Have identification labels for everyone, 2 Give a tour of the building, 2 Put teacher name and class on each room door, 1 Good to see school in action, 1
