SUPERINTENDENT JASPER GIVES SOME IN
TEREsTING FIGURES AND COMPARISONS.
The annual report OF John Jasper superintendent OF
the Public Schools was issued on Saturday.
Including the Nautical School there were, at the
close Of the year $780, 306 schools under the control
OF tho Board Of Education The highest attendance
for any one month in 1890 was in October when there
we're 1873 s57 children In the schools. The greatest
increase in attendance that of 3052 in the primary
departments.
Tha average attendance in the grammar and primary
schools during e last ten years has varied consider
ably In 1881 It 1864 in 1890 1t was l3o,l20'
There has been q continuous decrease In the at
tendance of pupils during the last three years in the
First Fourth, Fifth Eighth, Ninth, Fifteenth, Six
teenth. seventeenth, Eighteenth, Twentieth and
Twenty first wards while there has been a continuous
increase in the Seventh, Twelfth Twenty ond,
Twenty third and Twenty fourth wards The number
Of pupils in the schools north OF Fortethst Is 40
ner cent OF the total attendance. The whole numDer
OF different pupils taught In the grammar and primary
schools during 500 194.244 the whole number
NJ different pupils taught In all OF the schools under
the Jurisdiction Of the superintendent was 2o' '9oV
H. aso appears that there are foryseven more emaie
than male pupils In the grades, but that in
the primary grades the male pupils exceed the female
by 1918
During the year the number OF regular teachers In
the system. including the principals 4,21s That
WAS an increase OF 107 those employed in 1850
In addition to the regular teachers there were ia
special teachers. including thirty for drawing
twenty-one for music, forty for German, seven
for French, seven for sewing, three for cooking
and six for manual training. Excluding the evening
schools and the corporate schools 3017 teachers
employed OF that number, 236 were men and the
remainder women.
Mr. Jasper makes the following recommendations:
Some OF our schools small that they should
be consolidated with other schools.
In like manner small departments in the same build
ing should be consolidated
II small school be situated that II cannot be
Consolidated with neghborlng one, II would be ad-
visabe TO appoint an acting principal at less salary
than that TO be given to regular principal
Whenever IL Is possible 70 secure corner lots for
school buildings preference should be given TO such
sites When however. such sites cannot be secured,
enough land should be purchased 10 allow one lot 10
remain vacant on each side OF new school building
In the line OF economy and efficient administration
would recommend that hereafter the school buildings
10 be erected be arranged 10 accommodate not more
than 1000 pupils, and TO be under the contro OF
single principal
