- Description:
- The document describes a visit by Senator Harris to Morgan Elementary School, which is experimenting with a new program that includes a locally elected community school board. The children are excited and interested in the visitors, and the teacher is happy to have the opportunity to show off the program. However, Principal Haskins notes that there are some problems with the program, including a lack of experienced teachers. In the second half of the text, the author describes a number of upcoming events in the social lives of various wealthy individuals. These include a party for the Burtons, a wedding for Sir Francis Peake, and a possible summer trip to Malta for Prince Charles.
