The attendance for the past month was
not what it should have been; by glancins
at the above report you will see, that while
there were one hundred and fifty-eight
pupils enrolled, the average daily attend
ance was only one hundred and thirty /;
that Is, twenty-eight pupils were out OF
school every day during the month. True,
some were out of school because of sick
ness, but too many allowed worry poor
excuse to detain them at home No pupil
should stay out Of school single day ex-
cept on account of sickness. Each pupil
should go to school as regularly as the
merchant goes to his place OF business or
the professional man to his office. That
merchant or professional man who cares
so little about his business or his pro-
fession that he only goes to his place of
business or to his Office three or four DAYS
in tie week, and then is never there to
attend to the details of the opening of tho
business or to meet tho first visitor of the
morning is certain 10 find difficulties in
his financial progress. While school lasts
each person who is enrolled should make
going to school a business.
What is true Of any other business is
true of the school. Regularity and
pi emptiness arc the first essentials to
success. Some years ago the board made
a rule, which rule is still in force, that
every pupil must be in his place at the
beginning of zach session or bring with
him written excuse from parent or
guardian. A study of the above list should
be of interest to every patron of the
school. We hope that parents will co.
operate with the teacher in securing more
regularity and promptness on the part ol
the pupils.
Once month each pupil in school is
expected to take part in the rhetorical ex.
ercises. We consider this to be one Of the
very important departments in the school
course, and with but few exceptions each
pupil has performed his part willingly.
We hope that parents will assist their
children III tho preparation of this work
and encourage them by coming to our
Friday afternoon exercises.
We also urge that parents and all inter-
ested in the success of the schools will
visit tho schools and see tho work that is
being done.
