Chowan Is Accredited
Chowan Junior High
School recently received
official notification from the
North Carolina Secondary
committee that the
Secondary Commission of
the Southern Association of
Colleges and Schools has
accepted the school as a
fully accredited institition.
In making this an
nouncement to the School
Board Monday night, school
Superintendent John Dunn
explained that this
prestigious status is just one
more of the “good things
which stemmed from the
reorganization and con
solidation process un
dergone by the school
system this past fall.”
D. F. Walker School,
which formerly housed K-3
and 7-8 students in the
Southern end of the county,
was already accredited by
the Southern Association.
By virtue of reorganization,
the accreditation of the
junior-high portion of
Walker was transferred to,
the now, Chowan Junior
High. Resulting ac
creditation status, subjects
Chowan Junior High in 1982
to the Five-Year Interim
Self Evaluation required by
the Southern Association for
continued membership.
A volunteering effort on
the part of a school staff,
accreditation by the
Southern Association
required an in-depth self
study using high standards
and criteria designed by the
agency. In the self-study
process, all facets of
education are taken into
consideration. The school’s
philosophy, education ob
jectives for students,
strengths and weaknesses in

all areas of curriculum,
facilities and community
and plans for improvements
are thoroughly investigated.
For applying schools,
strenuous effort is required
by the staff, which in
essence is trying to improve
and extend its services to
children, focusing on their
interests and needs. Main
taining quality staff,
materials and facilities is
another standard set by the
Southern Association. Team
work (Mi the part of school
the personnel and ad
ministrators shows
willingness to strive over and
beyond the call of duty to
meet the high standards of
excellence necessary for
improving the quality of
education for students.
“With Chowan Junior
High’s new accreditation
status, the entire school
system is now accredited or
affiliated,” Dr. Dunn said.
John A. Holmes High School
has its five year re
evaluation coming up this
Spring. Walker, Swain and
Chowan’s re-evaluation will
be in 1982. White Oak School
has become affiliated by
taking the first steps in
beginning its work on full
accreditation.

Warriors Lose Game
Despite 32 points by
Jeanne Clyde the Lawrence
Academy Lady Warriors
lost their first game of the
season, Tuesday night to
defending state champion
Hobgood Academy? 46-36.
Hobgood led by 2 at the
; half 18-16 and outscored
Lawrence 17-2 in the 3rd
quarter leading by a score of
35-18 going into the fourth
quarter. Lawrence couldn’t
catch up and fell from the
undefeated ranks.
| “Hobgood did just a super
h job defensively,” explained
coach Vara addding that
Hobgood put pressure on
Jeanne whether play
ing at the shooting
guard or the point guard
position.” Even though
Jeanne got her points, they
stopped the rest of our girls
from scoring, and Jeanne
can’t win by herself. Every
girl has to contribute her
part.”
“I think the loss will help
us more than it hurt us,”
said Vara. “It takes a lot of
pressure off our girls and
proves to them that they are
a team, and everyone has to
play well together. We’ve
still got a long way to go, but
our girls are looking for
ward to meeting Hobgood
again.”
Tuesday night was a bad
night for the Lawrence
Academy basketball teams.
After the J.V. boys lost - the
girls lost and then the boys
took it on the chin, losing to
Hobgood 50-42.
The Warriors were led by
the Tarheel Independent
Conference scoring leader
Phil Holton with 12 points

Weather Causes Injury
Ice-covered sidewalks and
steps were the cause of
injury to literally thousands
of Postal Service employees
last year, according to
Postmaster James M. Bond.
“More than 16,000 postal
workers across the nation
were hurt when they fell or
lost their balance,” Bond
said, “and ice and snow was
the primary cause of those
accidents.”
“We do everything
possible to deliver the mail
regardless of how bad the
weather becomes,” Bond
said, “but we want to
remind customers again
that snow and ice on steps
and sidewalks has to be
removed where carriers
must walk.”
Postmaster Bond said he
realizes it’s not always easy
