CORINTH
Superint endent of Schools Makes
His Annual Report.

To the Citizens of the Town of Corinth
l herewith present my first annual report OF the
schools of your town:
My term of service began July first; the teachers
for the present school year had been generally
and the policy of conducting the schools pracClcay
settled before assumed office 1t has been my aim to
become thoroughly acquainted with your school system
to study it's merits and it's needs and to suggest no
changes in teaching force in school policy except IN
cases where changes seemed imperative. After such
study it is clear to that the to improve your
schools to perfect rather than to revouonze your
system; to retain and improve your teaching force
rather than to seek teachers to guide and guard
the wise and economical expenditure OF school moneys
rather than to ask for more money and higher scnoo
taxes build up and improve your school plant rather
than to condemn as worthless both buildings and
equipment
Knowing the financial condition of your town. Its
valuation rate for schools and other municipal ex
penses, the demands and obligations IN otner depart
nents of town government such the support OF the
moor care and maintenance OF the highways the reduc
ton and elimination of town indebtedness etc. am
convinced that increase in tax rate for the support
of the schools should be considered and IT possible the
present tax rate should be at once, or IN the near
future lowered would however, strongly oppose re-
trenchment in the support OF the schools IN order
give more money to be expended IN other departments
All departments and all officers of the town shouiu
strive to reduce the burden of taxation and to stao
ize and strengthen the towns credit This, IN my
opinion is the present and paramount duty on the toW
and | believe the schoo oepar thert sioulo 1 " 49,
unite with the other departments OF the town govern
ment to accomplish this object
The question, therefore, may properly be raised
can the schools be conducted with high degree OF
efficiency during the coming year with the same or
lower tax rate? o.
School expenses can usually be classified under five
heads: salaries repairs fuel supplies and transporta
ton.
Salaries.
The salary of teacher is not wholly local matter
but is determined largely by that paid in other COM
munties based upon the teachers training experience
and efficiency Teachers class were the last to be
benefited by the rise in prices and therefore IN JUS
tce to Them their salaries should be about the last to
be lowered The salary of teachers in rural com
munities are usually lower than those paid in the cities
which is in part offset by the lower cost OF living IN
the country The more ambitious teachers are seeking
higher salaries and larger opportunities and are con-
tinually being drawn away from the country; hence
the rural teachers term of service is usually very
Short this lack of permanency IS the greatest oe1ec
