Academy News Notes Rabbi Sanford Tucker of the North Carolina Hebrew Academy has joined an infor mal group of private school headmasters, who meet month ly to explore mutual concerns, including curriculum matters, testing, the academic calendar and athletics. Members include directors of Charlotte Country Day, Providence Day, Carmel Academy, Charlotte Latin, and Charlotte Christian. The fifth and sixth grade children from the Academy will participate with students from these private schools in a joint field day in the Spring. In con sideration of the Academy, this event will be held on a weekday afternoon, rather than the Saturday originally suggested. This is the Academy’s first significant contact with private schools in Charlotte. From its first year the Academy has had considerable ties with the Charlotte public school system. There is other news from the Academy as well. A Long Range Planning Committee, chaired by Rita Mond, has been formed. TTiis group will consider various proposals to accomodate the growing number of students ex pected at the Academy next year. It is likely that the Academy will have forty children next September.

The workshop lasted about three hours and was well received. The Academy looks forward to continue work with Dr. Riley. The Academy now has a new Publicity CJommittee chairman.
