REPORT OF THE BOARD OF EDUCATION
Again we render our yearly school-report, with its failures and successes. Our teachers have done faithful work, and pupils in all our schools who have attended regularly and applied themselves to study, have made good progress.
Owing to the decrease in attendance the latter part of the fall term at the North District, and the difficulty in procuring a teacher for the winter, we thought it best to transport the scholars from that school to the village. We feel that this would have proved a stim- ulus, especially to the older pupils, but the plan met with unexpected opposition on the part of the parents, and was abandoned.
Money voted for reshingling the south side of grammar school- house has been thus expended.
While the school board would have gladly welcomed a District Superintendent, yet the time does not seem quite ripe to again bring the matter before the people for consideration.
Let us as a town, help to erase the word Illiteracy from our fair State, and this can be done only through co-operation-parents, teachers and school board working together for the best interests of the school.
