To school Patrons.

During this and next week the teachers Of
the different grades will forward TO the pat
rons Of the Union Schools a report Of the
standing of each pupil at the close ofthe
term, ending Nov. "a.
The report is a record of the conduct aver
age of daily recitations, and the result Of the
written examinations, and the object is to
inform the parents of the progress and stand
ing Of pupils in the work required. II may
be that many parents underestimate the real
assistance they can render the teacher in Sc
curing good work by carefully examining
these reports, and when unsatisfactory, by
persistently seeking the causes for the same,
and insisting on more work on the part OF
pupil, or closer attention on the part Of the
teacher or both, as the case may be.
Supr
