Sewing, while not considered a regu-
lar department heretofore, has elected
so much interest among both pupils
and patrons, that it deserves special
mention, not only because of the SPLEEN
did results obtained, but on account of
the minimum cost. In the High school
the pupils themselves bought and paid
for the meager equipment, and the cost
Of material for the entire year was only
$S.41 for 1876 girls, six cents apiece for
the year, or two-thirds of a cent apiece
for month. In the Grammar school
there is no cost.
Not only is the training in these de-
partments translated into practical eff
fectiveness in the lives of the boys
and: birls, but in many instances, pu-
pills who were dragging along in the
literary department, who have de-
Cided turn for the subject taught in
special department, and consequently
e2celling in their department, were en-
''couraged by renewed faith in their abil-
ity, so that their work in all depart
ments was improved.
THE May Festival, one of the most
pleasing and most numerously attend
ed entertainments ever given by the
children of Americas, demonstrated the
merit of introducing public school mu-
sic in the course of study.
This department with that of draw
ing, in which the children have made
marked progress, tends to take the
sharp edge off of too material course
of study, lending its share of refine
ment and culture indispensable in any
plan of education.
I'VE are expecting much good to
come of the military course, introduce
ed for the first time with the beginning
Of the next term.
THE departmental plan in the
Grammar school, we believe, should
not include the fourth grade, there,
fore it has been arranged that hereaf-
ter the departmental plan will begin
with the fifth grade, so as to include
the fifth. sixth and seventh grades.
I'VE are sure that you are advised
from your own inspection that the
grades of the colored schools are too
crowded, during several months. at
least, and that remedy will be pro-
yided as soon as it is possible.
At this point in Superintendent Ma
this report is a collection of school
statistics of Americas.
I'VE do not believe that there is
more loyal, more faithful, more eff
cient corps of teachers anywhere than
in the Americas public schools, white
and colored, and whatever measure of
success is attained belongs finally to
them.
THE work of the superintendent, the
past year, you have made exceedingly
pleasant by your many kind considera-
tions, you advice and your hearty CO.
operation, for which he sincerely
thanks you"

They expect to completely remodel
