The things recommended for the elementary schools need to be carried
out in the high schools also.
PHYSICAL TRAINING
The city gives slightly more than the usual amount of time to physical
training in the elementary schools. Except for first and second
grades, where a slightly larger amount is set aside for the purpose,
pupils are expected to receive one hour per week.
