 | The following resignations were re-
 ported and accepted: Miss Elizabeth
 Southworth and Miss Louise Fuess | teachers in the Winchester school, to l take effect at the close of the present
 school year; Miss Mabel J. Bromley of | the Welch school, to take effect at the close of the present school year. Owing to errors made in the appoint | ment of teachers in the list as made up at the last meeting of the board, the committee recommended the following changes, which were adopted
 That the salary of Miss Mary s. Jor- dan, room 4, Ferry street school, be fix
 ed at $550 instead of $500; that the sal
 ary of Miss E. Elizabeth Fleming, room 3, grand 3, Lowell school, be fixed at
 S450, instead of $400; that the salary of
 Miss Mary D. Smith, room z, grade 5,
 Hallock street school be fixed at $500,
 instead of $5S0; that the salary of Miss
 Gertrude A. Woodruff, Kindergarten
 teacher, at Roger Sherman school, be
 fixed at $575, instead of $550
 Owing to change in grade the con-
 mlttee recommended that the salary of Miss Katharine Vandervelden, princi- pal of Woodword school, be fixed at $620 instead of $500; that the salary of Miss Eleanor Marcus, teacher in room Ed wards street school, be fixed at $525; in stead of $500; that the salary of Miss Helen M. Higgins, room 10 Roger Sher- man school, be fixed at S690 instead of S6i5. These changes were accepted.
 The superintendent has appointed L. F. Dickinson teacher in the Board- man school, and on recommendation of the committee his salary was fixed at $950..
 The superintendent has appointed Franklin s. Hoyt supervising principal of the Dwight district, and the com- mttee recommended that hfs salary be fixed at S1000, the recommendation be- ing accepted. Mir. Hoyt was graduated from the Boston university, taught for time in Pennsylvania and for several years has been principal of the schools in New Milford. It is an interesting fact that when MT. Hoyt was a boy he was pupil in the Dwight school. Ad- ditional compensation is given to MT. Hoyt by the state, inasmuch as the Dwight and Orchard street schools are a part of his ub-distrct,
 The superintendent has appointed Miss Jennie Waugh on unassigned list, and her salary was fixed at $475
 The superintendent has appointed Miss Edith Tewkesbury assistant teacher in room 19 Strong school and the salary was fixed at $400.
 The committee announce that the su- perintendent has appointed twenty New | Haven young women to positions ill the schools, seventeen of whom are graduates of the Normal cshool in | the class of '99.
 Tn these appointments the superin- tendent has been guided solely, as he ought to be- by the interests of the chill iren of the city and by no other inter est. Bearing this principle in mind that the best teachers to be found should re- ,eive appointment and no others, the committee is glad that the superintend- 9nt has been able to appoint so many New Haven young women. These young women have been appointed strictly in )rder of their rank or standing in the Normal school. All of the New Haven young women in the first thirty of the lass have either received or been of- cred appointments Several of the out if town young women in the first thirty tt the Normal school have declined ap- ointment with us or are not eligible un- Ter the rules of the board which re- tl1ire that teachers without experience must be graduates of high school with
 TIun If Haven young women have declined their on account of the fact hat they have been offered larger sal ries in West Haven.
 Probably no more young women wlh ,e needed at present in the elementary chools as substitutes.
