HERE'S THE CLASS OF 1933 FROM PENNINGTON GRAMMAR SCHOOL. ONCE AGAIN, A NUMBER OF FAMILIAR NAMES. I WAS A BIT PUZZLED BY THE RATIO OF THOSE WHO GRADUATED AND THOSE WHO WOULD GO ON TO SEPTEMBER STUDIES. WERE THEY AMONG THOSE WHO DIDN'T "PASS" TO THE NEXT GRADE? AT KUSER SCHOOL AND IN FACT IN THE HAMILTON SCHOOL SYSTEM, A NON-ACHEIVER "STAYED BACK" AND REPEATED THE GRADE. I UNDERSTAND THEY NO LONGER HAVE THE OPTION OF MAKING A STUDENT REPEAT A GRADE.....BAD FOR SELF ESTEEM? HMMM.
