School Report.


Fellow Citizens :- In accordance with the requirements of law, the undersigned submit the following report of the con- dition of the public schools, for the year ending March 1, 1891.


No. 1.


The scholars of this district attended school in No. 4, as formerly, except one for whom we paid tuition at West Rumney.


No. 2.


There were two terms in this district, both in charge of Miss BERTHIE A. CLOUGH, a teacher of experience, whose labors were quite successful and satisfactory. She went quietly and systematically at her work in the school room, kept the school still and orderly, and the scholars at their work. The parents gave wood and board as heretofore.


No. 4.


The summer term was taught by Mr. FRED E. WHEET. This school began well and gave promise of success, when, at the close of the sixth week, owing to the appearance of the scarlet fever in the district, it was suddenly closed, much to the regret of all.


14


The fall term was in charge of Miss ELLEN E. CONNOR, a young lady of experience and excellent scholarship. She en- tered upon her labors with an energy characteristic of herself, infused considerable life and interest into her pupils, and re- quired and in a measure secured, faithful and diligent study on the part of those for whom she was laboring so earnestly. As a consequent result the school showed the best improvement in the various branches taught and in discipline which, for some time, it has been our privilege to report. It will be fortunate for the school if her services can be secured for the coming year.


No. 5.


Here were five scholars who were schooled in Rumney, as heretofore.


No. 7.


There was one term of eight weeks taught by Miss GRACE M. EMERTON, who abated none of her interest shown last year in this school for the advancement of those under her instruction.


No. 8.


There was a fall term taught by Miss LUCY M. HARDY. Miss Hardy is a good scholar, and in general, fair progress was made ; while many of the classes showed good advancement and passed a creditable examination. The order of the school was not altogether satisfactory, but the teacher had more to contend with in the matter of discipline than those not familiar with the school and the habits of some of the scholars, anticipate.


No. 9.


There was a summer term under the instruction of Miss MARY E. BATCHELDER, a young and inexperienced teacher. Miss Batchelder was well qualified to instruct, always active, ever ready to impart information required by her pupils, and to


15


instruct her classes during their recitations. If the school was not so quiet at times as might be desirable there was no apparent disorder to hinder the progress of the school.


No. 10.


Miss UNA E. CROSS, teacher, summer term. For a young teacher Miss Cross is perhaps excelled by few. Naturally quiet and reserved, herself, she kept her ten scholars quiet and orderlv. Good progress was made by the pupils, and the teacher made a good record for herself.


The fall term, taught by Miss ALMA C. BLODGETT, commenced September 8, but as some of the scholars had not at this time sufficiently recovered from the scarlet fever to attend the school, it was postponed until the 22, when it was resumed and con- tinued successfully two weeks. The teacher was then taken sick and not able to return to her work. Before another teacher could be secured the season was so far advanced that it was not deemed advisable to continue the school in this district or in No. 9, as was the intention, following the arrangement of former years.


Complaints often come to us respecting teachers, especially if the schools are not going on smoothly, or to the satisfaction of the complainants, and the question is asked "Why don't you get better teachers, if you have to pay them more?" The question is easy of solution for those who are familiar with the opera- tions of the schools in towns around us. The best teachers who can command good salaries and desire nearly constant employ- ment secure situations in towns or villages in which the schools are in session for the greater part of the year. Such being the case, and such it is, towns having only short terms cannot secure the services of such teachers at any price. It is only when good teachers of experience desire to teach a small part of the year that they can be obtained for our schools. Hence


I6


we must generally accept those of little or no experience for our short terms, trusting for good results, by careful supervision of the schools and cordial co-operation with such teachers as we can secure. While some fail, many young teachers of little or no experience have met with good success in our schools, and many more will succeed in years to come. With more funds to ensure longer terms, the alleged cause of complaint will be partially removed.


The law requiring towns to furnish school books to scholars, not supplied with them, came into operation with the beginning of the year, and in view of the fact that some changes in our text books would soon be needed, if not already demanded, it was deemed advisable to make the changes this year. We have therefore put into our schools the New Franklin Readers and Greenleaf's New Series of Arithmetics. We think it will be inferred from the several separate reports of our schools that they have been equally successful with former years. Such is, we believe, the case. There have been no failures, while in most cases excellent results have been obtained. But for the prevalence of scarlet fever in both parts of the town, and sick- ness of one of the teachers, more schooling, and at the proper season, could have been secured, especially in the south part of the town. But for this state of things no person is respon- sible.


It is to be earnestly hoped that the over-ruling Providence who controls all things will stay the encroachment of disease within our borders during the coming years, and that no interest in our schools will abate in consequence of the inevitable re- sults of the closing year.
