REPORT OF SCHOOL BOARD.


To the citizens of the town of Gilmanton the School Board respectfully submit their annual report :


The number of schools supported the past year has been twelve. Whole number of pupils attending not less than two weeks, 203; boys, 104; girls, 99.


An inspection of the District at the opening of the year, showed that pupils could be best centered and schools taught in the following buildings : Kelley; Potter, Page Hill, Smith Meeting House, Lougeetown, Allen's Mills, Corner, Sanborn, Gale, Griffin, Rogers and Iron Works. Number of different teachers employed during the year has been seventeen, one male and sixteen females. For further information in regard to teachers, studies, attendance, etc., we refer you to the sta- tistical table.


It is perhaps known to most of the citizens of the town that in order to avail ourselves of the benefits of the Literary Fund, the laws of '97 session require that all towns must support at least twenty weeks of school during the year. Not enough money was raised at your last annual meeting for school pur- poses to do this, therefore we find that with the strictest economy we have not been able to quite make both ends meet.


The amount of money raised for school purpose in town for several years past, has been entirely inadequate for the needs of the schools. The matter of a few hundred dollars means very little to each tax-payer, while the value of it to our girls and boys from year to year, will be more than can be well estimated. Your children have the right to demand the best you can afford to give them, to help fit them for the life work before them. Economy in the management of our town affairs is commendable, but it should not be extended to educational interests to their detriment. With the present allowance for school purposes. We find ourselves unable to compete suc-

cessfully with the neighboring towns, where from twenty-five to thirty weeks of school are maintained each year; and the result is that many of our best teachers find employment where they not only receive larger salaries, but are furnished with much longer terms of school. With all due respect we would urge upon all the necessity of giving this matter your careful consideration. In reviewing the school work of the past year, we find much to encourage us to enter upon the labors of the coming year cheerfully. Our schools as a whole have been very successful. Earnest faithful work has been done by a majority of teachers and pupils. Parents and citi- zens have manifested a lively interest in school work. This we deem one of the best signs of the times. We must have a hearty co-operation of parents and teachers or our labors will to a certain extent be in vain.


Let your children know that you are laboring with their teacher for their highest good. Teach them respect for the "Powers that be" and their chances for gaining book knowl- edge will be doubled.


We have deemed it expedient to introduce new grammars thoroughout the town, hoping to create an interest in this im- portant study, which it was not possible to do with the old text-books. We would urge upon all the importance of con- stant attendance upon all school duties. The record of at- tendance in some schools for the past year was very gratifying, while in others there is room for great improvement.


At your last annual meeting the sum of $300 was appropri- ated for repairs on school buildings. It was thought, at that time, by the school board, that the proper course to pursue would be to move the Griffin building to what seemed then to be a more central location ; so as to accommodate the scholars in both the Griffin and Jones Mills districts. But upon a more careful investigation it was found that the scholars at Jones Mills could be just as well accommodated by sending a part of them to Allens Mills, and the remainder to the Griffin build- ing where it now stands.


Therefore the Griffin building was repaired on the old site,
