REPORT OF SCHOOL BOARD.
We think we can say our schools this year have compared favorably with the records in past years.
We could not arrange less than ten schools and paid for conveying puipls from three other districts and it required money for both. Therefore there were only thirty-two weeks of school.
Our teachers, with two exceptions, have been with us for several terms or years and their success is well known.
The average attendance was very good at the close of the school year and we hope for a better record next June.
We shall receive aid from the State next year for two Normal graduate teachers and three holding State certificates.
Several school houses have been repaired and painted inside, and others will need painting outside next year. No. 10 has earned, with the help of city friends, a second-hand organ. Another friend gave ten dollars to the children in premiums for exhibits shown at the Grange Fair last fall and we hope for a larger display next year.
A Campton boy sent the only exhibit of corn from Grafton county to the Boys' Corn Show at Manchester this month and received a prize.
In many towns Domestic Science is taught and several teachers here started the good work, interest- ing the boys in gardening and the girls in sewing. Several schools served hot lunches at noon during the winter term.
Thanking all for the courtesies shown us during the past year.
