Kodiak School Has
Record Enrollment
The Kodiak Public School
closed its first month with the
following enrollment: 1st grade
31; 2nd grade 25; 3rd grade 31;
4th grade 30; 5th grade 19; 6th
grade 26; 7th grade 37; 8th grade
23; High School 63; making
a grand total of 285 pupils. The
increased enrollment has made
necessary the use, by the eighth
grade, of one of the rooms de
voted to high school work last
year. This left one room in
which to attempt to carry on the
work of a four-year high school.
Manifestly this w'ould have been
impossible. So thru the efforts of
the city council, the use of the
American Legion Hall was grant
ed. We wish to take this oppor
tunity to thank individually and
collectively the members of the
Legion for their public spirited
ness in permitting the use of the
hall,” said R. L. Clifton, school
superrintendent.
Not as much interest in Vo
cations was manifested as we
hoped for, as the course was
given at the insistence of Dr.
Ryan, the Commisioner of Ed
ucation. Juneau, Ketchikan,
Wrangell, Valdez and other towns
have begun similar courses and
report a very satisfactory enroll
ment. Perhaps with a better re
alization of the work that the vo
cational course offers, there will
be an additional enrollment.

the teacher free to notify the
parent in case of unsatisfactory
work done between report period.
In order to assist the teacher
in the correct grading and class
ification of her pupils, a testing
program was instituted and is
under way. The Otis SA:
Otis Classification; Metropolitan
Reading Readiness; Metropolitan
Reading Achievement, Primary;
and the Eames Eye Tests in a
number of cases where the pupil
seemed to need such a test, have
been administered and in most
instances the interpretations of
the tests worked out. Conferences
with the teachers will aid them
in diagnosing the difficulties and
abilities of their pupils and thus
enable a program consistent with
