At the last Grange Myrtle Chap
man was given the subject, What
Maintains a High School Of the First
Grade?" and she read the following
A high school Of the first grade
in the state of Ohio must offer
course of four years of at least eight
months, with general understanding OF
nine months-recitations As minutes
! long or not less than 40 minutes.
Must offer 21 different subjects to
study, with choice of 16, which will
constitute 16 credits to graduate.
Graduates from a first grade school
are supposed to be fitted for college,
hence his work should be of the best
with plenty and sufficient apparatus
to help him, and with instructors who
are not crowded with work, having
not over six recitations to hear each
day. Schools leading up to the high
school should be of the very best,
that a pupil may be fully prepared
to master the high school work with
credit. Hence centralized schools are
recommended Three teachers are re-
ouired to instruct a first grade high
school and to give their full time,
Hence for Brunswick to maintain a
first grade school, more room must
be provided, either by using a part
of town hall in connection with the
lower rooms, or by new building.
The present south room of school,
which now accommodates at times DO
pupils. should not have more than 2o
or 30 with the desks farther APART
The recitation rooms are pronounc-
: ed too small with only one black
board room for three or four pupils,
These rooms must be made larger and
more black board space provided
Even in the large south room there
is only black board space for half the
, algebra and geometry class to work
> at the same time, and only one-thiro
of the commercial arithmetic class
| can be at the board at the same time
More black board space in that room
, must be provided. There has beer
| no political maps and only one his
torical map in the school, while the
, law states that at least six politica
, and six historical maps shall be pro,
, yided and these have just been pur'
| chased within the last Is days. Some
tools and a work bench is necessary
} to any grade high school-the tools
have recently been purchased. The
physics laboratory apparatus shoult
; be replenished somewhat and some
more recent books added to the Ii
brary which even now is very good.
= The eighth grade cannot attend th'
? high school, unless more than three
= teachers are secured and as there i:
not room for the three teachers tt
} work, the eighth grade cannot attent
school with the high school. This vii
enable the offering of more subject
t for the pupils to choose. The housing
! conditions are too crowded and mus
4 be remedied.
