In other words, boys other schools can no longer handle; therefore, no longer want...Godfrey said Aggeler is organized to meet the general and specific needs of each student. 'This is accomplished by smaller classes (maximum of 20 pupils), closer supervision, frequent evaluation, regular counseling, remedial classes, close home liaison and a sound discipline structure.'"
