Report of School Board
Your school board feel that they have very little to say about our schools for the year 1908. As far as we can see our schools are in a prosperous condition. We have had good teachers. The schools are in good working order. Some of the registers show too many tardy marks. We hope the parents will in the future see that their children are punctual at school. Children that are made to be on time will feel the influence through life. Be on time.
Respectfully submitted,
FRED KIDDER, JOSIAH WHEET, WILLARD H. HUNKINS, Groton.
