Manners, Morals and More

Teachers assist children to develop good manners and morals; they help in problems of social adjustment; they impress upon them the fundamental concepts of democracy; and in the stresses of this war-torn world, they attempt to keep the children well-balanced emotionally.

Speaker at Parent Teacher Meeting

Donald Drummond, acting principal of the Grammar and Junior High Schools, gave an interesting and enlightening talk on “The School’s Service to the Community” at the regular monthly meeting of the Parent-Teacher Association on Monday evening, October 23, in the High School library. He described the far more than “Three Rs” which teachers of our public schools teach the young people of the community who are in their charge for the better part of the day. 

They check on their physical health; they assist them to develop good manners and morals; they help in problems of social adjustment; they impress upon them the fundamental concepts of democracy; and in the stresses of this war-torn world, they attempt to keep the children well-balanced emotionally. The Association agreed with the speaker that Coronado is particularly fortunate to have efficient teachers with real responsibility in their work of supplementing home training for the benefit of both individuals and community. – The Coronado Eagle and Journal, 1944
