MANCHESTER SCHOOLS
RANK AMONG BEST
INTERESTING FACTS CLEANED
FROM REPORT OF STATE SU.
PERINTENDENT SCHOOLS.
TAXES LESS THAN OTHER TOWNS
Teachers Receive Better Salaries than
are Paid in Average Towns Size
OF Manchester.

| 1t may be of interest to the readers
of the Democrat, particularly those
residing within the limits of the Inde-
pendent school district of Manchester
to note that our schools rank among
the best in the state. Every now and
then one hears criticism of the school
system and school taxes, contending
that we are not getting our moneys
worth, ETC.
Recently a report was issued by the
State Superintendent office giving
statistics as to the number of pupils,
teachers employed, cost per pupil in
high school, rate of school tax in
mills, and salaries of instructors. In
order to give the patrons of the Inde-
pendent school district of Manchester
a fair statement we give the averages
of seventeen towns, with an average
population Of 5000. The average num-
ber Of pupils in the schools of these
seventeen towns is 766, while Manches-
ter has $50. The average number of
teachers employed in the schools, is
ass, while Manchester has 80; aver
age salary paid teachers is $3.50,
while Manchester is paying its teach
ers on an average Of $500; the cost
per pupil in the high schools is $3.50,
while in Manchester the tuition is
only $5.26; the average tax in the
seventeen towns is SIS mills, while
in Manchester the total school tax
is 36 mills; the salary of the superin-
tendent is averaged at 2O90, while in
Manchester it was $500; the salary
of the principal is averaged at S1123,
while in Manchester the principal
has been paid $1100.
The patrons of the district should
find these figures of interest in more
ways than one. 1t is INTERESTING to
note that the teachers oe the schools
here are being paid better salaries
than they are in many other places
even larger than Manchester, while
the salaries of the superb 1tendent and
principle are nearly up to the aver
age. Another interesting fact, and one
that effects every tax payer in the
district, is that our rate Of school
taxes is 1873 mills less than the aver
age in the seventeen towns Of approx
mately the same population of Man
chester. Thesesfew facts show con-
clusively that the School Board of
the Independent District is certainly
getting value received for the peoples
money, when at a lower rate of taxa
tion we employ more teachers and at
better salaries than do the average
towns.
While the above figures deal only
with the financial end of the school
system, the best part of it all is that
the Manchester High school carries
more branches Of study than do the
average High schools. and a larger
percent of the children who enter the
schools of Manchester, stay by the
task until they complete the four
years course of the High school, That.
of course, is the important thing, and
it is indeed gratifying to note the posi-
tion the schools of Manchester hold
the better schools of the state.
