REPORT OF THE SCHOOL BOARD
(For year ending February 15, 1916)
MEMBERS OF THE SCHOOL BOARD.
Bertha E. French. Term expires 1916
William S. Manning. Term expires 1916
William Melendy Term expires 1918
In compliance with the law the following report, with a financial estimate for the year ending February 15, 1916, and an estimate for the coming year to end February 15, 1917, is respectfully submitted.
The annual district meeting was held March 5, 1915, in the town hall. Mr. Wm. Melendy was elected moder- ator, Mr. Edmund B. Hall clerk, and Miss Mary E. Man- ning treasurer for the ensuing year.
Mr. Chester C. Rausch was elected a member of the school board for two years. Mr. William Melendy was elected a member of the school board for three years.
Mr. Rausch resigned his office and the vacancy was filled by the election of Mr. William S. Manning.
The Supervisory District is composed of Hopkinton, Weare and Bedford, the same as last year.
At the Supervisory meeting held last June in Weare Centre Mr. Fred S. Libbey was reelected. This is Mr. Libbey's second year as superintendent, and under his efficient supervision the schools are improving steadily.
We have a body of teachers, all of whom are doing their work with a diligence and a devotion worthy of high commendation.
Owing to the crowded condition in No. 1 and No. 5 schools we feel that a new school building is necessary.
