vice Miss NJ. b. Stevens whose nomination
has been withdrawn, is reported adversely
for the reason already presented to the board
in the committees report on the nomination
Of Miss Stevens.
, The recommendation of the local commit
tee of the sixth division. "that fivo teachers
instead of four be allowed to the graded
schools at Uniontown, and four instead oi
three to the grandcd school at Mount Pleas
ant" is reported adversely for tho following
! reasons:
The reports of the supervising principal OF
the sixth division show tho present enroll
. ment of pupils in these schools to be as fol-
lows In tho Mount Pleasant school 115
pupils giving an average of 1873 pupils to each
, of the three teachers now employed by author
| ity of the board; in the Unontown school,
l05 pupils, giving an average of 1877 pupils
to each of the four teachers now employed by
authority of the board. The enrolment in
/ these two schools is substantially the same as
} last year. There has been no material in
l crease in attendance.
Tho number of teachers in the public school:
, of the District of Columbia is limited by law
{ to 525, and the full number have been as
signed to duty without allowing the two ad
; ditional teachers asked for in the sixth di
, vision. They could be allowed only by with
J drawing them from other divisions where
! they are now in charge of full schools and
where there is more pressing need for theil
services Under the present assignment o.
teachers in the city there will be severa
r schools in which the attendance will be nearly
5 or quite 100pupils in a school to be instructed
by one teacher
+ Revoke the appointment of Miss Marian
; Thatcher.
Q Gen, Birney made an earnest appeal to b.
= allowed an extra teacher at Mount Pleasan
+ and also at Uniontown, but was overruled b,
I the board upon Mr.. Warmers explanation
. that the number of children in the count!
) schools averaged SO very much less than il
4 the city schools that it was impossible to pro
" vide for the extra teachers.
S Gen. Brnoy then offered q resolution tina
: tho assignments in the second division (Nlr
G Walner's) bo postponed, and that ono of tn
y ladies nominated in that division be made t
t give way to Miss Thatcher.
}. Mr.. Brooks informed the board that if thi
t resolution TO postpone prevailed the teacher
