SCHOOLS WILL OPEN
TUESDAY, SEPT. 5TH
Announcements of Interest to Par
ents and Pupils by Superintend-
ent Mustain.

The following announcement re-
garding the opening of the Morris
Public Schools is made by Superin-
tendent L. G. Mustain:
The teachers of the Morris Public
Schools will meet with the superin-
tendent at the high school building,
Monday, September 4th at 1880 p.
m.
The schools will open for the re-
ception of students Tuesday, Sept. 5
at 900 a. m. Teachers for all de-
partments have been engaged, the
school houses are in good order and
an suspicious opening is assured.
A large enrollmnt in the grades
and in the high school is anticipated.
The state pays the tuition of high
school students living outside of the
district, providing the home districts
do not maintain high school. The
state will pay the tuition of high
school pupils living in districts where
there is a high school, provided the
home high school does not have all
the departments carried by the Nor
ris high school; for illustration, if
the home high school does not have
commercial department but does
have other departments, the tuition
will be paid provided the student
takes at least one subject in the
commercial department of the Morris
high school. A tuition of $500 per
month will be- required of all high
school students living outside of
District No. /, who are not in the
above classification. This must be
paid in advance each month.
1t will be necessary this year to
charge a tuition of $500 per month
in advance for pupils in the grades
who live outside of the. school dis
trict. Frequently in the past the
Morris schools have omitted from ten
to fifteen pupils from the outside free
of charge. The enrolment has now
reached the point where it is impos-
sible to continue to do this. How
ever, if arrangements are made by
the parents for the payment of the
tuition, outside pupils may be re-
Iceived provided there is sufficient
| ~Gonn' s-~,.~ z- E
lll students admitted to the teach
ers training department must be
high school graduates. No tuition
is required. The maximum number
received in the local department this
year will probably be twelve. The
minimum required by law is seven.
Thus far, ten students have enrolled
for this work.
The department of home econom-
les, industrial training and CONNER
cial work will be continued.
Parents and prospective students
may consult with the superintend-
ent in his Office from 10:0O to 1900
and from 200 to 400 Saturday,
September End.
