Greenwood Schools Open
The Greenwood schools got off to
an early start last Monday, August

high school enrollment, but a decrease
in the number of grade students. The
54 Dunils enrolled this rear in the
high school as compared with 37 last
year, shows an increase of about 45
per cent. 19 of the 54 are Freshmen
On the other hand, last year's grade
enrollment of 90 has dwindled to 80
for this year. Of these, 30 are In the
Grammar room, 28 in the Intermeai
ate and 22 In the Primary. Eight of
the 22 are beginners.
The Greenwood schools are offering
this year for the first time a group of
courses by extension. This is arrang
ed in co-operation with the University
of Nebraska and Is really supervised
corresoondence work. The students
are registered with the Extension de
partment of the University, which
sends the lessons and grades them.
The faculty supervises the study and
records the grades earned. Credit is
granted the same as for any of tne
regular courses taught in leading ac
credited high schools. '
Much interest and enthusiasm has
been evidenced in this new program
and about 16 courses have been taken
with Typewriting the most popular,
followed in order by Bookkeeping,
Shorthand, Art, Chemistry and others.
The cost is very small compared to
the advantage of adding two com
plete fields to the local school's cur
riculum. Many others will be avail
able if the need arises.
There has been a considerable
turn-over in the teaching staff. Lee
Knolle, of York, who is a graduate of

zel, who has taken her work at Peru
and at the University of Nebraska,
