Annual Report of the Board of Education


OF THE TOWN OF DANVILLE.


To the inhabitants of the Town of Danville:


The Board of Education submit the following report of the schools under their charge for the school year ending March 1, 1893.


NORTH SCHOOL.


The North School for the Spring term of twelve weeks was taught by Miss Nellie P. Bates of Bridgewater, Mass. She came highly recommended as a scholar and a lady of highly moral character. This was her first experience as a public teacher- She manifested a good degree of interest in the welfare of the school, and some progress was made by the pupils in their studies, but for lack of experience it was not so marked as it otherwise would have been.


For the Fall and Winter terms your committee thought it ad- visable to secure the services of a more experienced teacher, and so the services of Miss Eva G. Robinson of Fremont, N. H., was secured, a graduate of the Salem, Mass., Normal School, and a teacher of four years' experience. She had learned by experience that to begin right is the most essential step. She immediately won the love and respect of her pupils, maintained good order, and secured the interest and attention of all, thereby enabling them to make marked progress in all of their studies, proving her- self a competent and able teacher, and winning the approval of your committee.


19


CENTRE SCHOOL.


The Centre School for the school year of thirty weeks was taught by Miss Henrietta M. Peaslee of Danville, N. H. Miss Peaslee needs no introduction to the citizens of Danville, having for so many years been one of their most faithful and successful teachers. Although this is the smallest school in numbers, yet by no means the smallest in interest, for the entire school hours are improved in a most profitable and instructive manner ; thus her pupils are at an early age prepared to enter a higher grade of school. Your committee consider her a wide-awake teacher, full of energy and perseverance.


SOUTH SCHOOL NO. 1.


The South School No. 1 for the entire year of thirty weeks has been taught by Anna A. Hartford of Richmond, Maine, who has taught the school for the two previous years. This school is the largest one in numbers and in some respects the most difficult to govern. She evidently believes in keeping pace with the times, for she is continually introducing new and improved methods, working early and late in the interest of her pupils. Throughout the school year good order has been maintained, and she has held the attention and interest of her pupils, and as a result they have made good advancement in their various branches of work.


SOUTH SCHOOL NO. 2.


South School No. 2 has been taught by Miss Edna Hanchett of Westfield, Mass., who had taught the school the Fall and Winter terms of the previous year. This school, although not the largest, is the most advanced one. Miss Hanchett is held in high esteem by her pupils. She is well adapted for the work of the school room, easily governing and holding the attention of her pupils, her explanations are clear and easy to comprehend. She is a most faithful and conscientious teacher, and it will be the aim of your committee to keep the school up to the high standard which it has attained under her instruction.


20


REMARKS IN GENERAL.


In presenting this our annual report of the schools, we take pleasure in saying that they have, during the past year, been both successful and profitable. It has been our aim to secure good teachers and retain them through the year. The teachers have labored zealously for the good of the schools ; they have endeav- ored to teach the pupils in a thorough manner, and the school board have sustained them; and we contend that any other method of teaching is a damage to the scholars. One of the great evils of our schools is the lack of punctuality in attendance ; an evil to which we would earnestly call the attention of all par- ents and seek their co-operation to overcome.


Four complete school charts have been furnished the district. The world is advancing every year, and the only way we can keep ourselves in the ranks is to use all improvements in the method of teaching and furnish our schools with all that will interest and in- ' struct the young.


We append the roll of perfect attendance, and a statisticical table of schools for the year ending March 1, 1893.
