Wednesday, May 18, High by Lynn Elliott and Vivien Farr I have a _ co-writer again! Mrs. Farr has been doing a _ very capable job of organizing our noon- hour intramural program, and this week she reports on our track meet of last Thursday, which she organized. Course selections for next year are now un- der way. Grade 9 students have made their choices, and students who will be in grades 11 and 12 next year are in the process of choosing. This is an important decision, and students are urged to consult with parents, teachers, and guidance services if they need any assistance. They are to indicate their choices on a Course 1983 School report Selection Sheet, which should be signed by a parent or guardian, and returned to the school by tomorrow at the latest. If you have a son or daughter who will be in grade 11 or 12 next year, please discuss this decision with him/her and see that the Course Selec- tion Sheet is returned to the school on time. Olds Junior Senior High School held their Track Day on Thur sday, May 12th, having had to cancel the original date due to the rain and cold weather earlier in the week. it turned out to be perfect weather for a long and energetic day. This year was in two ways; in previous. years the track meet has been for Junior High students only. This year the whole school attended from Grade 7 through to Grade 12 and was divided alphabetically into four houses or teams in order to provide some overall incentive to participate. Each student was em couraged to sign up for a certain number of events and was awar- ded points for their house for taking part in these. Extra points were given to those who finished in the top 6. Competition was mainly in age groups or grade levels although there were some house events also.
