Lewis Third Grade Our Goals When the average Negro boy or girl completes twelve years of schoolling he or she has, in effect, reached the most crucial period in lilfe. Generally speaking, he will immediately enter the adult flow of activities, engage in the customary tpes of employment and frequently quite soon become a partner in a budding family. Clearly, these are all trying responsibilities and demand maturity not expected of a boy or girl just leaving high school. Yet, these are the facts...The Negro boy or girl leaves high school and enters into Life. This being the case, it becomes clear that the school must use every course and every activity to prepare the student for what IN REALITY lies ahead. Not for the professional applaud of some distant high-brow expert; not for the sake of being similar to some renowned institution, but solely for the student as he is, where he is. Thus we at Winn Training School believe that the education of most woth to our boys and girls is that which will give them the vocational, physical, social, and civic maturity actually demanded of them upon leaving school. Our four golas therefore, are these: Vocational Training, Home-Making, Health and Citizenship. Just these four, that they might better live Life as it must be lived.
