School Mentin0

in pursuance of a call by the Board Of
Trustees Of Woodstock School District, a
number Of the citizens of the town met
at the School BnillIng on last Wednesday
afternoon.
Mr. G. w. Miley stated that he had ten
dored his resignation as school trustee
and did not consider himself member of
the Board.
Ga motion Mr. G. W. Miley was called
to the chair and stated that the object of
the meeting was two fold, first to receive
advice from the patrons of the school in
reference to the selection of teachers, and
second, to take some action in reference
to the erection of a new school building
He stated that the school building was
practically condemned and read the fol-
loving letter from Mr.. j. b. McInturf,
Supt Of Schools.
STRAsBURG, Va, July 4th. 1873.
DEAR Mr. MILEY -
wish to call your
attention ard through you that of the
school Board of Woodstock to the con-
dltion of the public graded school build,
ing in Your town. Your Board should
take some immediate action looking to
the repairing of the building, the sup
plying of it with suitable furniture and
apparatus and the removal OF bad con.
ditions about the out-houses | feel
sure that there will be no disagreement IN
our views as to the necessity of such &C
ton, as l have suggested, and l trust that
steps IN that direction will be taken at
once. Read section AZ page 81 Virginia

men come with you. Very Respectfully

Shenandoah herald. [volume] (Woodstock, Va.) 1865-1974, 1893-07-14
Very respectfully,
J. B. MCINIURFF,
Co Supt. of Schools.

The following resolution was adopted
Rcsolred, That the Town Council be re-
quested to submit the question of negoti-
ating a loan for sufficient funds to erect a
new school building, to the voters of the
town. at such time as they may determine
upen, not later than Sept. l.
The Board of Trustees postponed the
selection Of teachers until the vacancy
caused by the resignation of Mr.. Miley is
filled. After which the meeting adjourned.
In our opinion what Woodstock most
needs Is not a new battling but proper
care of the building which we have. The
present building is large enough to ac-
commodate the school, is we'll adapted to
the purpose intended, but is out of con-
dition from negligence. To-day some of
the blinds are wanting, and the build
inc has been in that condition for months,
Others ere not fastened and are permitted
to move as the wind directs and many
glass are broken The apparatus which was
purchased at considerable expense to the
town has been leftunprOtected and nearly
all Of it has been destroyed. Even tie
new desks which were purchased b1t
years ago, are not in the condition which
could be reasonably expected. From the
time school closes the building receives no
attention, except such as prowling boys
give it, until preparations are made for
the next term. Someone should have
charge of the building, at all times
whether, school be in session or not The
oat houses should be IN charge Of the
same person and should receive daily at
t,Rtion. If this plan should DO carried
oar there would be greater inducement to
expend five or even ten thousand upon a
building for school purposes.
Another question which more seriously
interests the patrons Of the school is the
employment Of a sufficient number OF
teachers to give proper attention to the
pupils for terms of not less Ithan nine
months. An arrangement which would
accomplish these purposes would benefit
| the rising generation more than new
/ building and five or SIX months school.
