superintendent Report
superintendent Martins report said
in part:
School Work Good.
On rrh IL he
of satisfactory progress with no inter
ruptions or features of special interest.
There seems to be steady and earnest
devotion to duty on the part of both
teachers and pupils. and some of the
best work of the session is now being
done.
Reports from the principals as TO the
result of the quarterly examinations
and as 10 the condition of the various
rooms. indicate that somewhat more
than the average number of pupils are
doing satisfactory work Indications
are that the promotions at the end of
the term viii be above normal
Falling Off in Attendance.
The principal hindrance 10 the work
OF the month has been the continued
prevalence of contagious diseases, such
as measles and whooping cough, among
the children. This cause. together with
the coming of holy week. has operated
to decrease the percentage of attend
ance 10 81 The principal falling off in
attendance has been among the Next
can children who are more exposed to
contagious diseases, and who observe
with more faithfulness the holy week.
A special effort has been made to de-
crease the number of preventable alb
sences and tardies. Many parents are
In the habit Of keeping children at
home for trivial causes, and are negli-
gent in getting them to school on time.
A great improvement has been made in
this respect IN several of the schools
during the last month, by the enforce
ment of the regulation suspending
pupil absent half a day or tardy three
times if not i'll.
