RESULT OF INVESTIGATION.
Committee Find Several Things That
Bear on the Matter of Pupils
Being Not Promoted.

Being Not Promoted.
An investigation into the reasons why
eighteen sixth grade in class of fifty
had not been recommended for pro-
motion to the High School, has been
conducted by the teachers committee of
the Board of Education, L. B. Morrow,
]. d. Carter, r.. G. Fraim and DIR. John
Palmer, Jr.
They made the following report TO the
Board OF Education last night: 'In ref.
erence to the eighteen sixth grade pupils
in the class of fit, who failed to be
recommended as fit ior promotion to the
High School, your committee would re-
port that they have looked into the mat
ter and find several things that bear
upon the case.
"Ihe class was made up largely OF
pupils that we're unsatisfactory in the
fifth grade and some of them for several
terms have been promoted on about the
lowest marks that would pass them.
Many OF them were pupils whose ambi-
tion seemed satiefied il they received
barely 75. The parents of each OF the
eighteen who failed of promotion were
informed at the end of each month that
any mark below eight was unsatisfac-
tory. and yet very few parents made any
inquiry into the matter.
Teachers are not all alike. Some Of
the teachers who have had charge OF
these eighteen boys since they came
from the primary schools have in a
greater degree than Others the power that
leads pnplls to learn. Just now much
each Of tlesc eighteen pupils was taught
by each Of the four different teachers
cannot now be determined, and conse
quently the amount Of credit or blame
that attaches 60 each OF these teachers
cannot be determined"
