Report of School Board.
At the annual meeting held March 4th, Mr. Eddy W. Stevens was elected moderator. Mr. Fred A. French was elected clerk. Mrs. Ella D. Walch was elected member of the school board for the ensuing three years. Miss Mary A. Manning was elected treasurer for the ensuing year.
The school board met March 11, 1910 and organized as follows: Chairman, Mrs. Fannie L. Shepard, Purchasing Agent, Mrs. Ella D. Walch, Secretary, Arthur W. Davis. The districts were divided for special supervision as follows: Nos. 1, 2 and 6 to Mrs. Shepard, 8, 9 and 10 to Mrs. Walch, 3, 4, 5 and 11 to Mr. Davis.
The schools have been maintained 32 weeks and we have been fortunate in the fact that there has been no serious illness to interfere with the school work.
Our corps of teachers have been earnest and conscien- tious in their work to a large degree. We have been for- tunate in six of the schools in securing the services of the teacher for the entire year.
There has been a great deal of interest shown by the pupils in our song birds, especially where they have had the bird charts introduced and we hope to see them in all of the schools.
In some of the schools there has been a noticeable inter- est awakened in wild flowers, especially so in No. 8, where
53
Miss Jennie McIntire collected and mounted over one hundred specimens.
On Sept. 23 was held a Fair and Field Day at the Town Hall. It was a great success, all things considered. We feel that the possibilities of a day like this are very great and an annual affair of this kind would be a great benefit to the children and town.
Through the cooperation of the Library Trustees there has been placed in the various schools, books from the li- brary. This has been a benefit in more ways than one. It has not only helped the children, but in many cases the children report the parents as becoming interested in their books. Anything that will increase the circulation of our excellent library should have the support of our people.
The board wishes to return its thanks to Mr. John Ferguson of Manchester for the large map of the U. S. donated to No. 3 school.
We would once more call attention to the large number of tardy marks and urge the parents to endeavor to over- come this evil. No tardiness in No. 8 during fall and winter terms. Only 2 cases of tardiness in No. 3 during the year. Greatest number of tardy marks. 96, in No. 1.
The school board has made 204 visits to the various schools.
In closing, we would again urge our people to visit the schools and become better acquainted with the teachers and the methods employed.
On the following pages will be seen the roll of honor, table of statistics, and treasurer's complete report.
Respectfully submitted, FANNIE L. SHEPARD, ARTHUR W. DAVIS, ELLA D. WALCH, School Board of Bedford .
