School Notes.

The Cooperstown high School
has been raised from a third
class to a second class, having
adopted full four years cour Sc
of study, and has a prospect
of being raised to first class be.
fore close of the school year.
Since the board furnishes free
text books, tablets ink etc. to the
pupils, it has been found neces-
sary to charge all pupils from
out of town small fee, not for
tuition but to cover expense Of
books and things furnished,
hence each pupil in the grades
from outside the district will be
required to pay to the clerk,
Oscar D. Purinton, a fee of two
dollars and get a receipt from
him at the beginning of each
term before entering school.
This does not apply to the High
School, there being no charge in
the High School.
School will open on the 4th day
Of September with the following
staff of teachers. Prof. D. H.
Loreaux, Supt. Miss A. Eliza
Cory, Principal and teacher in
High School; Miss Katherine
McPartlin, High School Assist
tant and teacher in 9Th grade;
Miss Linda H. Bahr, teacher of
9th and 9TH grades; Miss Kath-
crime S. Scholl, teacher Of 4th
and 5th grades; Miss Mabel
Zimmerman teacher of End and
3rd grades; Miss Maud Alleine
Stuart primary teacher.
All children who will come in
to school age on or before Jan.
LIST, 1905, will be admitted at the
opening Of school.
A complete set Of furnishings
for the labatory has been pur-
chased, end no pains will be
sparedto make our high school
secondto none in the state.
By order of the Board of Edu.
cation.
