The schools opened with q large
enrolment, so large in the primary
grades that the board has found it
necessary to enlarge two rooms in the
graded school building. All rooms
in each building are now occupied
with classes. The library has been
fitted up for the Science laboratory
This leaves no room for the eleventh
grade, which conditions make next
session. y.
a The new rule which requires child
rem who miss their lessons or misbe-
have to return to school building for
study from three o'clock to five, has
been heartily endorsed by practically
all the parents and is fruitful Of
good. Other pupils may return for
study who wish or need this extra
help by the teacher. Several pupils
have voluntarily returned for the two
hours study. ~
The teachers are voluntarily doing
this extra teaching from three to five
and are getting no compensation for
it except the gratitude of most Of
parents. @ -"
So far, the work has moved along
nicely whit very loyal support from
the patronage.
The new teachers and pupils are
adjusting themselves to conditions in
such a way that we are expecting a
fine years work.
Parents are cordially invited to
visit the schools.
