New Pamphlet Will
Aid School Beginners
AUSTIN—-Thousands of Texas
school children are starting to
school for the first time this year
with some timely assistance from
the Texas State Teachers Associa-
tion.
More than 125,000 copies of a
new brochure designed to help par-
ents of new school children have
been ordered from TSTA by local
school systems. An estimated 262,-
000 new students will be enrolled
in the state’s public schools this
year.
The publication, “To Help the
Child—and Parents Too!”, advises
parents about legal requirements
concerning school enrollment and
attendance, the type of information
the school needs, tips for prepar-
ing the child for school and helping
him to make the most out of it.
Parents are advised, also, about
such things as how teachers can
assist the child and parent giving
the school a change of address,
sending written excuses for ab-
sence or inability to take physical
exercise, and many other items.
The brochure was made avail-
able to all schools this year for the
first time.
