REPORT OF ZION PUBLIC SCHOOL.
In connection with the closing
monthly report Of The public school
term ending Feb. %, 1890, | submit a
partial review of what has been ac-
complished by Zion public school
within the past four years:
Year ending 1887, average enroll
ment for term of four months, 6S& /;
average daily attendance, 574.
Year ending 1888, average enroll
ment for term OF tour months, 1874 ;
average daily attendance, 81.
Year ending 1889, average enroll
mcnt for term of four months, 774 /;
average daily attendance, 6SM.
Year ending 1890, average enroll
ment tor term Of four months, S712 !;
average daily attendance, 70 9-20.
The steady and marked increase in
enrolment and attendance as shown
by the above figures, IS proof of the
substantial improvement Of ourpublic
school.
The school is now graded and
classed, as shown by monthly reports,
from primary to grammer, covering
the entire course of our public school
studies with each grade and class
represented in the school,
The patrons Of the school are in
possession of Il school Builaing. erect
ed within the past year, with ample
room for any increase there may be
in the school attendance. 1t is true,
there is still the small debt of about
one hundred dollars on the building.
There should be better seating accom-
modations, more blackboard room
and other appliances that ale ncccssa-
fy to It well regulated school but all
this may be accomplished with but
little individual sacrifice, by proper
supervision on the part of patrons and
teachers. When these last mentioned
requirements are attained, We, as
citizens of this district, may justly
take pride in that American institu-
tion-a good public school.
