Unlike the scheduled classroom activi- ty of the day, night and sum- mer school program, cor- respondence programs may be completed at the stu- dent's pace and conve- I nience. Correspondence educa- tion's greatest advantage is its flexibility. Students may complete a course as quickly or as slowly as necessary. Correspondence education offers courses that are other- wise not available through a regular day school or night school program. Like any course, a correspondence course requires its share of homework and study. .When you join a cor- respondence course, you will receive a set of lesson materials. Assignment paper, envelopes and other instructions will be supplied, but in some cases you will have to purchase your own texts. The marks on a cor- respondence course are determined by the assignments sent in and any ,examinations. For example there may be an unsupervis- ed test after half the course is completed, and a formal supervised test after the re- mainder of the course is completed. The assignments themselves are sent to a supervising teacher for cor- rection. The supervising teacher is capable of answering any questions about the course, too. If you are interested in us- ing the correspondence courses, the Guidance Office has a catalogue available, listing all available cor- respondence courses. The only costs of a cor- respondence course are for postage and for any student - supplied materials. Com- plete details about the cor- respondence- program may be obtained from the Guidance Office.
