There were during the year 70 cases of
tardiness, while last year showed "a.
There were 10 boys and II girls In the
schools less than three months as CON-
pared with 10 boys and 10 girls last year.
There were during the year Al boys and
90 girls Withdrawn as compared with 81
boys and Al girls for last year. This ap-
parent dropping out of the schools is al.
most wholly accounted for by removal
from town or III health or by the attend
ance of tuition pupils for only one or two
terms. OF ioreign pupils, there were en-
rolled during the year "a, an increase
over last year of 10. The tuition fund

Of the 1a2 pupils enrolled during the year
In the high school, so boys and 81 girls
remained on the roll till the close Of the
year, making a withdrawal OF 0 boys and
10 girls,
We especially feel proud Of the coutin-
ued good attendance Of our High School
boys. Only one boy withdrew during the
first seven months Of the year. For the
number enrolled this is an unusually
good record, and in view Of which Il is not
difficult to explain why our Alumni Asso-
citation counts upon its roll in the seven
teen commencements, III boys and 110
girls,
The above statistical points are given,
not so much for what they may indicate
OF the real'intellectual work of the schools,
as for infoi nation 10 the public regarding
such points OF school management as only
statistics will show, The daily work Of
the schools Is not so measured. II the
parents haze examiAed as we trust they
have, the daily, term and promotion cards,
together with the various examination and
test papOrs taken home by the pupils,
they understand much better the real
work Of the schools.
During the year Just closed the teachers
have been faithful and painstaking In
the work assigned, The pupils have. for
the most part, been studious and courteous
and the record Of the year we'll compares
with that Of any heretofore made. ~.
Before the work begins again in Sep
tember new school catalogue will be
published, and IL Is the wish Of the
Board of Education that every patron Of
the schools may possess copy, so that all
may fully acauaint themselves with the
complete course Of study and with the
rules and regulations governing the
schools. e 49,
With a grateful recognition Of the kind.
ly counsel and hearty co-opsration given
me by the board Of education during the

and of the continued interest and good
will shown by the pubic In all that their
teachers are trying to do, the aboye re.
port Is respectfully suhmifted. AZ "
