HALF DAY CLASSES.
Not Unusuali in Primary Grades
Says Superintendent
Snyder.

In this mornings New York Tribune"
and other papers appears a story intend
ed to create a sensation. regarding the
over crowding of Jersey City's schools and
the necessity of half day sessions.
OF course on the day of opening the
schools are always more or less over
crowded, both here and in other cities.
1t would scarcely be school without that,
while as to the half day sessions there
is nothing unusual in that, according to
Superintendent Henry Snyder 1t is
something which goes on the year round,
principally in the crowded downtown por-
tions Of the city. and then only in the
lowest primary grades where the children
are in reality too young to stand the five
hours schooling. Here there is one ses-
sion for one class in the morning and a
second session for another class of the
same grade in the afternoon. 1t is princi-
pally in Schools Nos. and 9 that this
arrangement takes place and there the
children are very small.
School No. q. the opening of which
was held over on account of delay in re-
pairs will begin its sessions on Thursday
morning
