This- deposit is also re- fundable less any deductions for damage caused by the students. Free Materials As a result of the policy recently adopted by the Juneau Board of Lirectors, all materials actually used by pupils will be furnished by the schools. This includes such items as paste, ink, art paper, pencils, construction paper and work books. In each case of work books, one copy will be furnished to sach pu- pil but remains the property of the' school. If the pupil leaves the school, the work book remains with the; school. If the pupil loses or des-' troys his work book, he will have to replace it at his own expense. Materials such as paper, pencils and blotters will be provided on a ba- sis deemed adequate to meet the needs of the pupils. If a student is extravagant or wasteful with his materials, he will need to purchase additional material at his own ex-| pense. ' Students whose parents maintain lecal residence in other indepen- dent school districts of Alaska will not be admitted to the Juneau schools unless they first have a writ- ten release from the Board of Di- rectors of the school district in which they are legal residents.
