Students should be allowed to study without worrying about grades. Fortunately, most educators are becoming aware of the fact that students have different interests and abilities. However, the discipline resulting from grades still exists. Grades often cut down creativity. Competing for better grades causes many students to turn down opportunities to pursue music, dramatics and sports. Grades impose a subjective standard of success on everyone. 1 do not demand as some extremists do, that grades be ended immediately. However, ! do believe that less emphasis should be placed on grades. I hope that someday grades will become optional at Village High School.

If you wake up some night and smell smoke, get up at once and look around. But be careful! Never open a closed door unless you feel it first to make sure it is cool. If it is very hot and you suspect a fire, keep the door closed. Opening a hot door lets into the air that will knock you down. If you must stay in the room, open the window and shut to awaken the neigh hours, or call to people passing on the street.
The most important thing to do when a fire appears is to report an alarm. Do you know the telephone number of your local fire department Do you know where the nearest fire-alarm box is Ring the alarm , then until the engine arrives so that you may direct the firemen to the blaze.
