Tutors Ready For Summer Pupils Here
Purpose Is To Aid In Subjects Difficult To Youngsters, Not For Skipping A Grade

For the benefit of the parents of elementary pupils who wish their son or daughter to do some studying in one or more elementary subjects before returning to school next fall, Leland S. March, General Supervisor of Instruction, has requested all elementary teachers who would be interested in tutoring to give him their name and summer address.

The following teachers signified their interest in tutoring:

Miss Helen Taylor, 1227B Flagler Avenue, phone 3415, all elementary subjects; Mrs. Betty Jane Leiter, 812 South Street, phone 1-855-R, all elementary subjects; Mr. John Marzyck, 3510 Avenue E, elementary science; Mrs. Mizpah Crutchfield, Douglass School, 806 Thomas, phone 38, all elementary subjects and mathematics and English on the secondary level; Mrs. Winifred Johnson, Douglass School, 324 Truman Avenue, all elementary subjects and social studies, mathematics and English on the secondary level.

A recommended scale of pay for tutoring is as follows: 1 pupil - $2.00 per hour; 2 pupils - $1.75 per hour; 3 pupils - $1.50 per hour; 4 pupils - $1.25 per hour; 5 pupils - $1.00 per hour.

It is not recommended that more than 5 pupils in one subject or grade be tutored at a time in one group. This rate of pay is merely suggested as a fair pay scale.

It should be understood that tutoring is done only to help pupils improve their preparation for the next grade by reviewing or clearing up subjects in which the pupil has had trouble. Tutoring is not for the purpose of skipping a grade.
