TUITION PROBLEMS
IN THE CITY SCHOOL
Better School Facilities
Draw Pupils From
Outside Districts
HARD TO COLLECT

The Blackfoot school has had a
series of problems in connection with
the tuition of pupils coming in from
outside the district. Pupils living
just over the line, closer to the
in their own district, naturally want
ITO come to town and it is necessary
for them to pay tuition or get the
trustees of their own district to
transfer their portion of the school
money to the Blackfoot district.
/ There are good many, families
living in town, having relatives in
the Lost river country and other
communities where the school facil-
tiles are not so good and where the
distance from the school is against
them, and they come to Blackfoot
and live with their relatives and at
tend school here. Some of them
claim Blackfoot as their residence,
but as. soon as school is out they
take up their residence at the old
home and continue to live there until
school reopens.
These cases have required a great
deal of investigation thru all the
years and the collection of tuition
from them has been rather difficult
at times.
A new problem has developed in
the last few years with the Indian
children on the reservation who pre-
fer to come to the town schools.
There have been about twenty-five
of them and it was arranged that
the federal government should pay
their tuition with the understanding
that they were allowed to remain in
the town schools. The understand
ing with the government was that a
report should be turned in to the
Indian agent at Fort Hall every sixty
days showing how many pupils were
in the Blackfoot schools from the
reservation and the government
promised to make payment of the
tuition based on what the report
showed. This matter dragged along
two years without the government
making the payment. To bring the
matter to focus Blackfoot denied
admittance any longer to these
Indian children and the matter was
taken up with the Indian agent at
Fort Hall and reported that he had
lest all the reports that had been
turned in by the superintendent of
the Blackfoot schools and asked that
duplicates be made out and sent to
him. 1t seems that duplicates were
not made at the time and now it be-
comes necessary for the superinten-
dent of the city schools to do all
the work over, involving a great
amount of territory. In the mean
time the Indian children are out of
school, excepting those few families
who have taken up their residence
in Blackfoot.
