Tlioy will bo promoted only ono- lmlf grade, however Instead of ono full grado. Tlio now plnn can best bo oxplnluod by axnmplo. A pupil who Is In tho fifth grado and has done satisfactory work wilt bo pro moted, this spring to tho HO grado. Next yoar at tho mlddlo of tlio your ho will bo promoted to tho A G grndo. Parents will thoroforo ro member that heroafter HC does not mean tho U class In tho sixth grndo, but It moans tho first half of tho sixth grado. Since tho great ma jority of this years grado pupils will bo promoted to tho H grades next fall, this oxplanutlon Is mado so that parants will not mlstnko thcRO promotions to mean tho H cIubb In that grado. Tho advantages of tho now plan nro many. Strong pupllH can some tlmos bo given a special promotion of ono half a grado. Weak pupils ran bo required to do ouohalf of n years work over without being re quired to do a wholo years work ovor, Btudvnts who nro compelled to miss two or three months of school for good reasons can earn ono linlf years credit without hav ing It nil to do ovc.
