The following report from the Su-
perintendent of schools was filed with
the County Clerk after the adjourn
ment OF the annual session of the
Board, which | consider of sufficient
Importance to the public to appear
among the records of this journal.
REPORT OF COUNTY SUPER
INTENDENT OF SCHOOLS
FOR 1876:
To the Hon. Board Of Supervts-
ors Of Jefferson County:
The following brief summary of
the condition of the schools and work
performed by County Superintendent
is very respectfully submitted:
The schools, as whole, are making
progress +; but few, from
various causes wholly beyond the
control of any person except the
patrons and school boards. are failures.
Perhaps it would not be improper to
state some of the causes of these
failures. Want Of pupils in the dis
trict, irreguhrity Of attendance, short
ness Of Ia n. condition of school
room, tardiness, lack Of cooperation
between teacher and school boards,
and, in few instances, between the
members of the board, the tendency to
secure the teacher that will contract
for the least wages-a few districts
only using the money received from
state and county school funds for
teachers wages.
-Four new school houses have been
built during the past year, and seven
have undergone extensive repairs.
Eleven examinations have been held
at which there were 458 applicants, of
which 257 have received certificates as
follows: Seven first grade, % second
grade, and 227 third grade. Some of
these have received two certificates,
making the whole number of certif-
Gates somewhat larger. Four Of these
examinations continued three days,
and the remainder two days. Have
held one institute, commencing Aug.
q. and continuing two weeks. Visit
ed 116 schools between January 1st
1876, and Aug. 31st. Made 143
visits, averaging two hours and forty
five minutes to each visit.
Only about SO per cent. of the
scholars in the county have attended
school at all during the year, and
comparing with the time taught and
the daily attendance, less than 40 per
cent. Of the pupils time have been
spent in the school room.
Amount spent for school purposes
during the year in the county, $49,-
915, go.
If the time Of holding the annual
meeting in those districts which con-
tinue to hold their meetings in Sep
tember were changed to August it
would be better.
Greater care should, in my opinion,
be taken to secure school boards COM
posed of such members as have a di-
rect interest in the success of the
schools.
