COURSE OF STUDY.
The course of study has been systematic
lily graded, requiring the average pupil
leven years to complete it, as follows: PrI-
gary, three years; Intermediate, three years;
Grammar, two years; High School, three
ears.
This year no effort has been spared to adj
ance the grades. II not now, with faithful
nd earnest teachers l am sure at the expira-
ion of the ensuing year the system and stan
ard of the grades of Deer Lodge public
chool will compare favorably with that of
ny other school in the Territory.
All pupils are required to stand an ap-
roved written examination previous to adj.
ancement to higher grades Sixty per cent.
the minimum standard for promotion to n
igher grade. With the present status Of the
rades, the pupils next year can get an aver
&c of seventy per cent in scholarship more
asIly than they obtained sixty per cent. this
ear.
For the ensuing year, therefore, l would
uggest that the Board of Education make
n average of seventy per cent. requisite for
omission to higher grades.
THE LIBRARY.
The library contains works of many of the
est authors, classic and scientific. Also
Biographies, histories, encyclopedias, and
Their books of reference. No one will gain
ny the assertion that u good library is val
tDlt dHAllbig W VI llufidl |
ducation. The large and appreciative au-
fence Mt the entertainment of this year given
Dr. the benefit of the library is no mean
on the high value the people set
pom this enterprise.
The public school library is not only for the
chool, but for the whole community. Any
ne conforming to the ordinary rules that
overn libraries can have access to it for the
ominal amount of one dollar for three
,onths.
- is our purpose to make an annual addi-
on to the library by such rhetorical exer-
ises as will not only entertain the audiences
ut also conserve the grace and dignity, the
Intellectual refinement and moral culture of
he pupils.
Both on my own behalf and that of my CO.
lborers, desire to thank the Board of Ed
cation for Its hearty support in matters of
iscipline and in all things relative to the adj
ancement of the school.
To my assistants, who have faithfully dis
harged their professional duties, offer this
ublic expression of my gratitude.
