School Report.
It has been the aim of the School Board as far as possible to provide teachers who were thoroughly competent, and who could carry out new and improved methods of study and recitations. Some of the schools have made an improvement upon last year ; and we are pleased to be able to report in several instances, as good results as could possibly be expected in ungraded country schools.
A wide awake, energetic teacher who is willing to devote her- self wholly to her work, and lay all her powers under tribute for the benefit of her school, will inspire her pupils with a love for study and good systematic work, which cannot be looked for in one whose interest is almost wholly given to other objects than those connected with the school. The influence a teacher exerts is wide-spread and it is of the utmost importance that it be right. We believe it is as much a part of the teachers' duty to help form the moral character of the pupils, as to instruct them from the text books. They should deal fairly with the pupils, showing no favoritism, patiently helping and encouraging the dull ones. A great many cases of tardiness which we noticed recorded are sim- ply inexcusable, and we consider that the parents are in a meas- ure to blame for this. The child who who is allowed to go into school a little late day after day, is forming a habit which will cling to him through life, and will not only affect his own prospects, but all with whom he comes in contact.
We believe it would be a source of help to the scholars if the parents would visit the schools at least once every term. Come and see what your children are doing, and not depend altogether on hearsay, and, above all, see that as far as possible they attend school regularly and promptly. We hope by the combined efforts of parents, teachers and scholars that the coming year will show even better results than have been seen in the past.
