SCHOOL REPORT. -_——- aE & 6 @ Ger —- -
DIS. NO. i
The first term in this district was in care of Miss Minnie L.
Wells, and the second in charge of Miss Marietta Ewins.
Both were young, therefore not, much experienced in the busi-
ness of teaching ; yet laboring with patience and diligence both suc-
ceeded in manifesting at the closing examinations a very satistac-
tory improvement in the studies pursued, especially in the Primary
Arithmetic and writing for pupils no more advanced in years.
DIS. NO. 2 2
Summer and fall terms in care of Miss Sarah B. Nelson, having
had much successful experiencé in all our other large schools m
town, she,equally in these maintained her well earned reputation.
The winter term conducted by Miss Mary E. Bailey.
Miss Bailey, being no stranger in our schools, having formerly
had experience here and superior experience elsewhere, ceuld not
well do otherwise than accomplish a good and worthy work, espec-
ially in the habits and deportment of this school.
By unfavorable conditions I was unable to witness the closing ex-
ercises. But much I expected, and by information from those who
were present, witnessing and interested in schools, I should not
have been dissapointed.
DIS. NO. 3
The two terms of school in this district the past year were im
charge of Miss Jennette Nelson, who faithfully labored for the wel-
fare and improvement of her pupils, who, being obedient and stu-
dious, obtained a thorough knowledge of the several studies pursued,
as plainly appeared at the examination.
-
16
The greatest progress in Writing and Arithmetic.
Actually a better school-room is needed, one with more light ;
To avoid building a new house you might be the better convened
at No. 14, receiving double the amount of schooling, thus doing
away with one of our VERY SMALL SCHOOLS.
DIS. NO. 4
With harmony and quietness the first two terms in this district,
seemed to be well managed by Miss Myra W. Morgan, proceeding
with her usual gratifying success.
Mr. Clarence B. Cheney, by diligence and a persevering effort,
combined with those essential qualities of mind and temperament
which constitute the make-up of a successful teacher, conducted
with a good degree of satisfaction the third term of school.
Excellent improvement in the several studies pursued the past
year has been made, and the closing examinations in the presence
of parents and others, were quite interesting.
DIS. NO. 6
For giving opportunity for repairing the school building, this
school was not opened till late in the year, then for the express pur-
pose of still granting privilege of repairing it was set up in quite a
convenient and comfortable room for the number of scholars, in the
northern section of the district, accommodating most, those intend-
ing to attend the school,
This school, by the attentive habits of the scholars, and by the persisting effort in discipline and thorough instruction manifested
by the teacher, Miss Linda E. Nelson, couid not fail of being ed
those pupils an excellent term.
17
DIS. NO. 7
The orderly and quiet appearance of the scholars in this dis-
trict renders this a very pleasant and easy school to manage, and
was, the first term in care of Mrs. Maria S. Fowler, who, by her
earnest efforts to promote the interests of the school gave a general
satisfaction. LON. wal
The second or fall ferm was in ¢harge of Miss Lena E. Little
who, though inexperienced 1 in the business, manifested accuracy ip
teaching, a good degree of reer and energy, by a determination
to succeed ; resulting in good improvement in the several studies
and a profitable term.

This, the summer term of about seven weeks and the only « one
the past year, was taught by Miss Lizzie B. Andrews.
Lacking an interest in things pertaiming to studies and trom other
cduses, some Of the scholars were very irregular in their attendance.
The teacher was competent, earnest and faithful, and scholar’
attending regularly made excellent improvement.
Both terms the past year were in care of Miss Abbie A. Peaslee.
Under the teachers faithful and efficient instruction, those pupils, -
who zealously worked for their own intuitive interest, made thor+
ough and rapid progress; while we lament, that those, spending
carelessly and indifferently their prec ious schoo} days, will present-
ly and ev entually realize their dwn losses.
Frivolous and trifling affairs of the school shouid not be allowed
to divert and absorb the mind, hiding the more worthy object ;
18
that of improvement and a thorough knowledge of the studies.
The TIMELY REGARDING of worthy counseling is of great i:mpor-
tance and will usually terminate for all in satisfactory results.
DIS. NO. 10
Those, having care of school the past year, were Mis3 Nellie
i. Wells, summer term, and Miss Abbie A. Peaslee fall term.
‘The teachers made unabated effort for the improvement and
welfare of their pupils, and manifested aptness for imparting in-
struction to others.
Both terms were commendable to the teachers aud scholars.
Phis is one of our largest and most difficult schools in town the
past year excepting two of the village districts. \
For the comfort, happiness and prosperity of thuse woo attead,
school here, a more desirable school building is wanting, and the
money used in procuring and maintaining such a one, is not spent
in vain nor thrown away.

The school in this district of one term only the past year, was
taught by Miss Georgia A. N elson.
- This school has been considerably increased in numbers the past
term for one of our small districts, which renders it much more
interesting.
Good instruction has been given and # very satisfactory prog-
ress made in the studies pursued.

_This ig a wnion in part with the town of Newbury.
The first term was taught by Miss Hattie E. Shaw, it being her
prime effort in teaching-
The second term in care of Miss Belle C. Shaw.
“Both were energetic and alive in their work and good order seemed
to be one of the noticable characteristics of both schools, and a
friendly feeling prevailed, resulting in their happiness and im-
provement. .
More accuracy in studies, combined with the excellent promi-
nent features of the schools, would have greatly increased their
final welfare. . 6
Parents and others manifested interest in witnessing the closing
examination which was very satisfactory.
DIS. NO. 14
This is a union with a part of the town of Warner.
Doring the first term Mrs. M. H. Roby was teacher, who hax
bad considerable experience in teaching particularly in this, and
working ardently tor the progress of her pupils gained very much
credit to herself and a permanent benefit to the school.
The tall term was taught by Miss Margarett ‘I. Farnum.
The school when visited near its commencement, gave ample
evidence by its ae and orderly manner, of accomplishing a good
work.
Of its progress and appearitoe at the close, am unable to state,
act being present, but should judge it might have been good.

GENERAL REMARKS. ~ os —- a @eew -- ~ - <
In town during the past year, there has been twenty three
terms of school in twelve of the thirteen districts (one withont any),
and eighteen different teachers Ue seventeen ladies and one!
gentleman.
There has been as much sceamntistieds in the schools the past year,
as any one could reasonably expect, scholars from six to twelve
years of age can not and should not be expected to accomplish what
they should from twelve to eighteen years of age.
Penmanship, much neglected by some in past years, has, in all’
the schools received readily its due share of attention.
The writing books have been preserved and treated in each t term
in a neat, tasty and orderly manner, in a manner not equaled by
any in my observation. ‘
It is a lameutable fact, that the parental world do not yet reals
ize the importance of an early, very early training of the would be
men and women, which are to take our places.
Children should be impressed by their parents with the impor-
tance of their school especially with the idea that it is their duty
to attend regularly, to be present at the assigned hour for the com-
mencement of the exercises.
There should be a caretul and cautionary training of children
in the domestic circle, pertaining to the treatment of each other and
their associates, at home, in the street or elsewhere, if you would
surely have them alight obedient, truthful and trustworthy
while at school. . ! dni
This discipline is of the FrrsT importance, aud should be so regar-
ded, if we would. have our children form good habits and receive
the full benefits in a. disciplinary and. educational point of. view,
which the schools are intended to give, and the effect will be seen
in the coming community.
