Hutchinson

Just a year ago we were planning
and preparing for the State P.T.A. Con-
vention to be held here in Hutchinson.
It was in every way a privilege and a
pleasure to have been hosts to all our
Kansas P.T.A. workers. Also the inspira-
tion which we received from the various
meetings of the Convention has been
put in practice. A number of definite
goals have been attained.

Week-Day Religious Instruction will
be a part of our educational program
next fall. A committee composed of
representatives from the City P.T.A.
Council, each P.T.A. unit, the Ministerial
Alliance and a representative of the
Board of Education, working under the
Spiritual Education Committee Chair-
man, developed a workable plan for our
community. A permanent organization,
with an executive committee and an ad-
visory board, has been established. We
are fortunate in having Judge F. B.

All schools are actively participating
with the local O.C.D. committee’ in the
National Defense program. The Sum-
mer Recreation program will stress
swimming for all children this summer.
Last summer over 500 children partici-
cipated in the swim classes.

The City Council will present Supt.
J. W. Gowans with a Life membership
in April. Supt. Gowans is retiring after
43 years as an educational worker—21
years as Supt. of the Hutchinson schools.
His whole hearted cooperation with
P.T.A. has been most helpful and en-
couraging.

Classes in Nutrition have been spon-
sored by Study groups of several of our
units.

Hutchinson School children have pur-
chased $50,000.00 worth of War Bonds
and Stamps since September. Because
members of the P.T.A. cooperated with
the teachers in the various registrations
for ration books, schools have continued
on regular schedule.

Hutchinson Council Publicity
Chairman.
