SCHOOL NOTES

The schools opened on Monday with
promising outlook for a successful years
work.
As promised by the Board of Education
last Spring the basement rooms in the
Liberty building have been closed and the
building is very: badly crowded. There
are IS pupils in the first grade in the
building and these children are divided
into two groups. one group attending
school in the forenoon the other in the
afternoon.
In the Liberty building there are so
pupils in one room in the third grade and
81 pupils in one room in the sixth grade
In the Washington building the second
grade teacher has Sc little people in her
room.
As many as seven rooms in the district
not including the High school are over
crowded.
The High school has grown beyond all
expectation, and the enrolment is as
follows;-
Seniors "a; Juniors 26; Sophomores4s;
Freshmen 90; Special 4. making tota
of 204. The total enrolment for each Of
the last two years has been only SO.
with an average attendance Of l46 for
September 1909. and an average of l4e
for 1910. Should the enrolment make
the usual increase during the year many
Of the students can not find seats in the
Assembly room. At present we have 8
more students than we have seats.
With the above conditions existing in
our schools at the beginning of the year
is it not important that plans should be
made looking toward tie erection Of a
new building? Rocky Ford needs more
school room and the room must be pro-
vided soon il we would attract larger
population.
1t is the earnest desire of the superin-
tendent and teachers that the parents
will visit the schools. If your children
are progressing satisfactorily. tell others;
if you feel that something more might be
done by the teachers to assist your chill
dren visit US that we may talk it over.
We crave your assistance and approval
and pledge you our earnest effort in the
interests Of your children and young
people.
Very respectfully,
