II. School Relations
The work of this Bureau is concerned primarily in assisting the high
school officials of the state in the conduct for educational purposes of interscholastic
literary and athletic contests. Certain contests culminate annually
in a final state meet at the University held usually in May. Theoretically
at least those exhibiting the highest literary and athletic talents come together
to match wits and skills.
The school relations work also includes a coöperative program with the
Virginia Classical Association for conducting state contests in Latin, and
with the F. F. A.'s, an organization of boys and girls in the state interested
in agriculture, in conducting a state-wide oratorical contest; and the loan of
educational slides and motion pictures and art prints to schools and interested
organizations or individuals throughout the state.
Complete announcements of the work of the Bureau of School Relations
will be sent upon request.
