Every one is busy with odd jobs of blowing balloons, carrying boxes and helping in many various ways. Many parents are helping out as the P.T.A. sponsors it. Achievement tests this vear lasted almost two days, to the enjoyment of the pupils. They were on Tuesday. ADril 15 and Wednesday, April 16. These tests are given annual ly about this time. The Jackson scool is proud to say that we had 20 people who made their eighth grade certificates with the new Zan er Bloser system in Penmanship. The chilrdren have been taking hearing tests, given by Miss Peterson. It took two and a half days to complete these tests. As the festivities of Girls' and Boys' Leauge week end ed, thoughts turned to regis tration scheduled to begin for juniors and sophomores next week. The school newspaper, Hi-Times, announced Friday that certain changes would be effective in 1958-59. Most significant, perhaps, is the proposal to offer certain courses such as typing' and some of the shops for credit during the seventh period, from 3 p.m. to 3:50 p.m. next year. This period is mainly activity period at present. Success of the plan will hinge on whether enough students show an interest in the pro posal to make it work. Also, according to Hi-Times, that publication will be complete ly extra-curricular next year. At present, some school time is used for part of the work involved in putting out the paper.
