School Report
To the Citizens of Athens:
We respectfully submit our annual report of the condition of your schools. Of the repairs suggested by your superintend- ent in his last report, the following have been made: The east side of the grammar school building has been shingled. New seats have been placed in the Franklin school and other minor repairs have been made at that school. The Stetson building has been painted inside. The rods for trussing the Garfield house are ready and arrangements have been made for the work. The lighting and seating have been changed in the village, gram- mar and primary schools.
We suggest that a definite program for the improvement of the physical conditions of your schools be adopted and the town prepare to meet the demands of new legislation along this line, and the trend toward the standardization of rural schools. We call your attention to the fact that you are keeping in repair ten different school buildings.
We also suggest again that the maintenance of so many small schools is both wasteful and inefficient. We are ready, whenever the town is prepared for the advance, to present a definite program of changes which we believe would result in a very marked strengthening of the school system.
We call your attention to the statistics presented near the end of our report.
This town, with ten schools, must maintain an aggregate of three hundred school weeks during the school year, each school having only 30 weeks. A nearby town with a more efficient sys- tem secures in each school 'a thirty-six week school year, but with an aggregate of only two hundred and sixteen weeks.
That town pays for 86 weeks less school than we, yet each school has six more weeks than do ours.
We hope for careful study of our school problems and an open-minded consideration of proposed improvements,
