 The following are some general ob- servations concerning the conditions of the pubic schools in Stafford made by E. w. Barber, inspector, for the state, after his recent inspection of the school and were made at the re- lquess of the school committee: First, the town is doing much for the i'm. |provement of it's schools, as is evil denoed by the $16, 900 Improvements on the buildings and grounds at Staff ford Springs school, the furnishing of free texts and supplies, the splendid repair of all school buildings inspect d. and the generous salaries paid to teachers. Second, the pupils ap- peared unusually bright and respon- |sive, and the majority of the teachers showed an ability above the average in country schools. Third, much the best work is being done at the Staf- ford Springs school, undoubtedly due to the following: nearness to the base of supplies, better organization, more closely followed up. better equip ment, and the unified system with a definite. head made responsible Fourth, the main points of weakness especially true in the outlying dis tricts are, lack of teachers plans, absence of programs or, schedules, lack of equipment, notably maps, lack of direction of teachers, lack of methods of instruction. absence of standard of attainment, and lack of unified town organization and denfiite system which would provide the same opportunities for the smallest. most isolated district as is enjoyed in the largest most central school. Fifth, many of the teachers interviewed de- clared that they felt the need of di- rection and instruction.
