A word as to the salaries of the
teachers might not be amiss. AS will
be seer from the statement above, the
salaries of the teachers are higher than
for the current year. The increase in
the salaries is respectively, $500 for the
principal, 5000 for the vice principal.
and 800 for the assistant, thus making
the yearly salaries as shown in state.
ment.
AS to the reason for such increase:
We have found from past experience
that in order to retain desirable
teachers for the second year, an
increase in salary must be made,
owing to the high cost of living in Eu-
reka. And it is q well-known fact that
it is not to the best interests of any
school. and is in the long q more
costly, to change teachers every year
than, by q nominal increase of salary,
retain those teachers who are acquainted
with the pupils and the conditions under
which they have to work.
With the teaching force of three it Is
planned to offer four OF the five stand
ard courses of study as adopted by the
State Board of Education viz: CLASH.
cal, Science, General. and Commercial.
This, we think, can be done next zeal
with the teaching force of three devot-
ino kkofr r4kAla ksxna 80 Ht.h CahA1l
work as ruled by the State Board Of
Education. But additional teaching
force should be provided the succeeding
year if such courses are to be carried to
completion.
The State Board of Elncation also
recommends that no High School
teacher should be required TO teach
more than six classes daily. and said
Board prefers that no teacher have more
than five classes daily.
Although q present High School
teachers realize that the best results
cannot be expected. when a teacher
prepares for sever ROTATIONS daily,
owing to the teachers time being
wholly occupied in conducting recita.
tions, and hence. being unable to give
individual help which is so necessary to
the progress of a pupil, nevertheless,
they are hearing seven r~ecitations daily
each. in order that next years work
may be more in harmony with the
standard courses as adopted by the
State Board Of Education.
Owing to the present financial condi-
tions of the county, and not wishing to
place an additional burden on the tax.
payers of Eureka County. we have re-
duced our estimate to $500 for the
coming school year. But this cuts out
some of the essentials for the proper ad-
vancement of our High School.
In all that we have done and shall do,
we have tried and shall continue { o try,
to take into consideration the educa-
tional needs Of the whole county and
not any one particular locality in the
county. Respectfully submitted,
f. IMOBERsTEG,
