I have the honor to present to you the report of the con- ditions of the schools for the year 1910. According to custom, this report includes statistical information and cost of maintain- ing schools, as well as a discussion of the educational processes which constitute the work of teachers and pupils: For con- venience, I have separated it into two parts, treating, first, the educational work of the year and, second, statistical and infor- mational matter in the form of tables.
