REPORT OF SCHOOL BOARD
In submitting a report of the last full school year ending August 31, 1919, it becomes necessary to go back so far as to make the report seem almost like ancient his- tory, a subject few people are much interested in. We were able to employ, for most of our schools, teachers of considerable training or experience. Where inex- perienced teachers were employed, we feel that in most cases we were particularly fortunate in securing those who manifested faithfulness and interest in their work. It was with real regret that we find ourselves unable to retain many of our teachers for the present year. The old reason, "Better salaries elsewhere," was the one most frequently received. During the fall term all the schools were closed one month owing to the influenza epidemic. Right here it may not be out of place to relate a fact not generally known, perhaps over town, several of our teach- ers were unable to conveniently return to the homes for the period during which the schools were closed. Hence they were living at expense here with no work. As on so many occasions heretofore our kind townspeople, Mr. and Mrs. Barrett, came promptly to the rescue by providing pleasant restful employment either for the library or some line of special work for the schools. This with re- numeration that the teachers might not be financially em- barrassed by the enforced vacation. Needless to say the School Board as well as the teachers very much appre- ciated the kindly thoughtfulness.
The pupils of Division 8 were conveyed to Division 6 for the first two terms, but being unable to provide transportation during the spring term, school was re- opened in Div. 8. There was an enrollment of only four and owing to the illness of one child for a large part of the term, the average attendance was low. In June a Union Supervisory District was formed of Cornish, Plainfield and Croyden and Mr. A. P. Averill was elected
1
53
as Superintendent. It is hoped that teachers, parents and pupils may unite in working with Mr. Averill for the best possible good of our schools. Remember he, even with his wide experience can not accomplish what we all desire without the cooperation of all workers.
Some minor repairing was done in the several divis- ions of the District, previous to opening the fall term. Next summer much more must be done in order to meet the requirements of the school law of New Hampshire.
With this we are giving you a report received from Superintendent Averill. .
Respectfully submitted,
THE SCHOOL BOARD
REPORT OF SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS
To the School Board of Cornish:
I hereby submit to you my first report as Superin- tendent of Schools.
Upon assuming my duties the first of September, I was pleased to find that teachers had been secured for all the schools. This was particularly gratifying because it was known that many towns were to open the school year with teaching positions unfilled. Of these teachers one is a normal graduate, six are graduates of high school or academy, three with respectively, one, three, and five years' experience and three without previous experience, one has four years' of college training. With the more attractive salaries paid in the village and city schools at a time of extreme scarcity of teachers it is to be expect- ed that promising teachers with normal training or with long and successful experience will decline ungraded rural schools to accept graded schools in the more popu- lous centers.
Fortunately however, our teachers are intelligent, energetic and capable. They are diligently laboring to make good in their respective schools. In our schools generally I find the children happy, orderly and diligent. I find the teachers eager to receive helpful suggestions, and ready to conform to necessary requirements. The school work has been seriously handicapped during the
54
past two months by the small attendance due to the pre- valence of contagious diseases and impassable condition of some of the roads.
Believing that reading is of fundamental importance educationally, we are making a supreme effort to develop this art to the point that children of the grammar grades shall be able to read readily and understandingly the text books placed in their hands for daily study. Poor read- ing ability is undoubtedly the major cause of most fail- ures in upper grade history and geography. We are making progress. Not all we could desire, some classes more than others; yet we are progressing.
Some schools in session last year have not been re- opened this year. Teachers were not available for all. Larger salaries than last year were imperative and the prospect of a lower scale of salaries next year is not at all encouraging.
In conclusion I wish to express to the teachers, my appreciation of their devoted efforts, and to the members of the Board for their hearty cooperation and unfailing courtesy.
Respectfully submitted,
ANDREW P. AVERILL.

LIBRARY REPORT
Although we have submitted our financial report, we feel a few words are due the people. You will note we have done no repairing. Some needs, for the good of our fine building, to be done, and the man is engaged to do this in early spring. The sum paid for books looks far too small, but quite a large number of books have been received or ordered for which no bills have as yet been submitted. Five branch libraries are doing good work in various parts of town scattering books among the read- ers. It is hoped to change these books more often in the future. The library has been open Saturday p. m. and evening of each week, and was open four days of Old Home week. The Superintendent of Schools praises our most excellent usable school helps and urges upon the teachers their use. All of the schools are using this ma- terial to a greater or less extent each week. The patron- age of the library has been good all the year. The loss of Mrs. Huggins as librarian last June was lamented. Al- though the service has necessarily been more crude and limited through the year than for some time past, we have done our best. For the children's sake we regret that the work had to be lessened. We believe the people of Cornish have continued to use the library as Mr. and Mrs. Barrett hoped they would. Possibly in this way the latter have been shown that people did appreciate their most generous assistance through the six years of their service with our library.
To all who have encouraged and helped us in our en- deavors to do as much as possible with the limited means at our command, we render sincere thanks.
