REPORT OF BOARD OF EDU- CATION.
To the Citizens of Fremont:
Our schools as a whole have made good progress during the year. The teachers have all tried to bring their schools to a high degree of perfection, and each has accomplished valuable results.
Parents and all interested in the welfare of our children have generally shown great interest in the work, but there is a lack of that sympathetic interest and co-operation on the part of some, so essential to the success of any school. It is a bounden duty we all owe our children and humanity, to not only send them to school, but command them to obey the rules and respect the teacher. "Order is Heaven's first law," and no teacher, however competent in other respects, can be successful without maintaining the most rigid discipline, even if to accomplish this, stringent rules · have to be enforced. If any have grievances, go privately to the teacher and have a friendly talk with her, strive to help rather than discourage her; failing to obtain satis- faction in this way, bring your case to the school board, and all parties shall have a fair hearing. Let all remember that the school room, in school hours, is not the place to bring action against the teacher, and such interference will not be tolerated.
The state laws in regard to school attendance are very strict and must be enforced.
All children from 8 to 14 years of age must attend school every day as long as it is in session, unless excused by the school board for good reasons.
Children from 5 to 8 and over 14 years may attend, but if once registered as scholars they will be subject to the
29
same rules and required to attend the entire term, unless excused.
Let us remember that the boys and girls of today are to be the men and women of tomorrow, and upon them will devolve the future prosperity of humanity. It is sad to think that any human being should be allowed to grow up in ignorance, and thus forever be unable to act their full share in the great drama of life.
