SEPTEMBER 8
Annual Teachers Meeting on
Monday Afternoon
HIGH SCHOOL REGIS
TRATlON BEGINS TODAY
Only Important Change in Public
Schools is New Principal of
Washington Building

Washington Building
With Monday next the long
summer vacation will be at an end
and next morning the Rocky Ford
youth will answer to the chime of
school bells and HE themselves to
the several school buildings to
make the acquaintance of new
teacher-due to promotions in
most instances-and resume their
studies with renewed vigor.
The opening day of this school
term will be Tuesday, Sept. s, in
stead Of the first day of the week,
because of the annual teachers
meeting, which will be held in the
High school assembly room on
Monday at 2:30 p. m.
The only important change in
the faculty this year is in the
principalship of the Washington
school, where Miss Nettie Partner
succeeds Prof. Branson, resigned.
To the qualification of the pa
irons of Washington building and
her host of friends Miss Partner
received this appointment in the
face of strong opposition from
some members of the board who
favored having n man in charge of
the building. As teacher of the
higher grades and virtually in
charge of the building for many
years Miss Partner has proven her
ability as instructor and disciplin-
arian, and those who know her
worth are confident that she'll
"make good as principal.
Until further notice is given the
boundaries for the grade buildings
will remain the same as they have
been fer the past few years. Pupils
living north of the Santa Fe tracks
will enter the Liberty school, and
those living so nth of the tracks
and east of the alley between Sixth
and Seventh streets will enterssthe
Washington building. The terri
tory south Of the tracks and west
of the alley will he known as
"open" and parents may place
their children i'll whichever build
ing they choose. AS the library
basement will not be used it may
be necessary to change these
boundaries at any time.
