REPORT OF SCHOOL FOR MAY
Final Monthly Report for the
Session Just Ended.
Enrolment Reaches 824 During the Ses-
sion -Tardiness Report
is Excellent.

May, the final monthly report for
the session just closed.
Many things have passed into
history in the last eight months,
and many of them give us genuine
pleasure while others give us pain.
AS we look back over the year we
see that this pupil has made ad-
vancement along this line and
that one along another line; this
teacher has taken higher ground
at this point and this one at another
and all of US, we trust, are wiser
and better by virture of the years
work. All of us, both teachers
and pupils, are better able to do
more effective service another
year, and we feel when the next
session opens each will be in his
place with a heart ready for any
task and with purpose fixed up
on the highest attainments. Let
one and all confidently look for
ward for just this thing, and work
toward this end and the desires
of our hearts will be realized.
The pupils as whole have been
most obedient and thoughtful, and
they will ever have my kindest re-
CARDS and we'll wishes and while
they are not in any way under OBJ
legation to me, still l am just as
anxious for them ao if they were
directly in my care. | have never
worked with and for people from
which labor more genuine pleasure
has come to me than has been
mine this year. Of course there
have been some unpleasant things
with which to deal, but on the
whole things have been very
pleasant.
Especially do l feel that my
teachers deserve special men,
ton for their patient, faithful,
earnest and painstaking service
from the first to the last Of the
year. Whatever the school is and
has been is largely due to the
loyalty and support of these con-
secrated teachers and whatever
the standard set in the future it is
in their keeping. May the fondest
hopes of all be realized.
We are truly proud to be able to
report that in the seventh and
eighth grades there were no tardles
during the entire year and none
in the entire school during the
last month. In some rooms not
a child was excused during the en-
tire month, no disturbances of any
kind, and these with many other
things make our hearts glad.
The colored school has had a
good year, attendance good, ad-
vancement above the ordinary,
order splendid, and higher ideals
have been formed, and the outlook
for better living is good.
The enrolment for the year
for both schools is 824; in the white
$50; in the colored I74, This is
a large increase over any year IN
the past history; and if we make
anything like this gain in the next
year, the need of new and larger
building will be imperative. We
need to put Our best into our school
and we must take front rank in
educational affairs, being, as we
are, the Athens of the state.
