Walker said that a community support system is being organized . He stated that businessmen have become interested in the EXCEL program and that Captain Shreve students and teachers as well as local college students have volunteered their services for afternoon tutorial programs. Walker also added that there are many people in the community who have nothing to do and would be happy to aid in the program if they could be reached. "EXCEL is trying to lay a foundation. We're going to make it more effective for the school system, not easier. Then the teachers will feel like they're accomplishing something," commented Walker EITIBPRISI when asked how he felt about the program. Walter said that he firmly believes that the parish is getting what it's paying for, but that if can only be effective if the students and parents sign the pledges. The students will be asked to sign pledges promising to strive Volume XI Shreveport, La., February 21, 1979 Number7 for excellence and setting strict study habits. Parents will be asked to sign pledges which includes the monitoring of their child's study hours and visiting their child's school. "Everybody doesn't need this pledge.
