Grade School Students
Take Field Trips
A new method of broadening
the education of grade school
students has been tried this year
at Heppner elementary and Lex
ington grade schools. Consisting
of class field trips, many stu
dents have been enabled through
this program to go places, see
things, and have experiences
they would not normally expect
through a school program.
The first was a tour of con
servation work in the county.
This was taken part in by all
fifth graders in the county-wide
district. The tour was made in
school buses.
The balance of trips have been
made by students at Heppner
and Lexington, and includes all
grades, one through eight.
Throueh this program students
who had never been on a farm
were able to visit two county
farms, one tour taking in Butter
creek and one Rhea creek. Some
who had never been a passenger
on a train were taken to Hinkle
by school bus, where they rode
a train to Pendleton and back.
Spots of interest toured in Pen
dleton included the airport, a
flour mill, the telephone office,
a newspaper office, a tire re
capping plant, and a bakery. '
Other trips were made to Me-
Narv dam. to the penitentiary at
Walla Walla, the fossil beds at
John Day, the Condon airport
and Maryhlll museum.
Teachers and room mothers de
cided which tours each class
should take. The children were
kept In their own class group,
ere accompanied by their own
te
acher, and some of their par
ents.
The field trips were not com
.ulsorv and arrangements were
mii. to take care of those stu
dents at school whose parents
did not want them to make tne
ip. All participating students,
ados one through eight, are
.ir.s the information gained In
the trips In class study and most
classes are requiring written re
ports on the experience gained.

place settings at the dinner party
were made In the form of small
graduates, each holding dip

were teachers, class advisors,
and the administration of both
the elementary and high schools.
A gift was presented Mr. and
Mrs. Clifford Williams, eighth
grade teachers who are moving
from Heppner. fn response Wil
liams presented a paddle wrap
ped In class colors to the class
and warned that It was not to
be unwrapped until their grad
uation from high school. He said
it "was a Pandora's box" and
would "take care of any student
i th imner third of the grade
not making the honor roll each
semester In high scnooi. ne saia
im. was an "above averge class"
and cited this as the reason he
expected a full one third to mane
the honor roll In the balance of
their educational years.
Principal Hillard Brown thank
ed the class for their cooperation
and Introduced them to Gordon
Pratt, principal of the high
school, who welcomed them and
said this was "not an ending
but Just a continuation of an
education started eight years
ago."
The class will, class prophecy
and a humorous selection entitl
ed "Can You Imagine" was read
by different students from the
class book.
Carl Bauman acted as master
of ceremonies for the program.
Eighth grade room mothers were
introduced and each presented
a gift.
A high point of the banquet
was the serving of flaming ice
cream to the nearly 100 persons
present by the eighth grade
mothers.
