Redwood Co. Schools

Redwood County has been settled
and established by people who take
pride in good schools. Not single
community but has a school within
reasonable distance, the good roads
having improved school attendance
| The districts are neither so large as
to make distance too great, not sc
small as to make taxes burden
From the time the county was or
ganized a spirit of progress has been
maintained in the schools. Teachers
and superintendent with real pro-
fessional training have given their
service here. Because of steady con-
sistent work in this direction by the
great majority in the county the
school work has been kept up to a
standard in the state equalled only
by the most progressive counties
This is often overlooked by residents
in Redwood County. We need to
leave Minnesota sometimes and see
it in perspective to really appreciate
how fine our school system and our
children's laws here are.
Redwood County has two accredi-
ted High Schools, and eight graded
schools offering high school work.
There are six of the above that draw
consolidated school aid. There are
seven semi-graded schools, two OF
which are in the open country. There
are seven semi-graded schools, two
of which are in the open country.
There are ninety-seven one-room
schools. All of the one hundred rural
and semi graded schools last year
were supplied with teachers at least
having at least a Minnesota First
Grade Certificate and in several cases
the teachers were graduates of the
wo-year Curriculum at our State
Teachers Colleges. The High
Schools at Lamberton and Redwood
Falls maintain Smith-Huges depart
ments giving very practical courses
in agriculture and shop work to farm
boys. Both of these schools have
Normal Training Departments where
those who make excellent scholarship
records during high school may take
a postgraduate course of one year
to qualify them to teach in rural and
semi graded schools Seventy-foul

Minnesota is the State of Oppor-
tunity, and Redwood County is one
of the best, if not the very best, OF
its counties from the standpoint of
agricultural and dairy interests. II
is located in the famous Corn Belt
its soil is rich, dark loan with clay
subsoil and is admirably suited for
the growing of grains, corn and pas
ture crops. To anyone interested IN
any phase of agricultural work the
County offers many attractions.
Redwood County was organized
February 9th, 1862, and has grown
steadily in every way since its begin
ming. 1t now has population OF
$4,000. It's county seat is Redwood
Falls, a thriving city with popu-
lation of 5000. Many villages throug-
out the county offer excellent trad
ing and marketing facilities.
The farmlands of the County are
divided into medium sized farms
owned in most instances by the
twenty-five hundred farmers within
its boundaries. In only few cases
are large acreages owned by single
capitalists. This fact of individual
ownership has been one of the big
factors in the progress and develop
ment of the county. The real estate
valuation is $19,46S,172. In addition
to this the County has personal
property valued at $2,860,778, and
the money and credits valuation is
$2,1O7,973, making a total taxable
valuation of S24,436,923 which repre-
sents full valuation of about $780,
100000. This puts Redwood County
we'll up in the ranks Of the states
wealthiest counties.
The principal crops raised are
corn, oats, wheat and alfalfa, for
which the soil is especially adapted
as stated above. The last crop re-
port shows an acreage of $4,000 for
corn, 10000 for oats, barley, rye
and flax, $4,000 for wheat, and 100,-
900 for alfalfa, clover and timothy.
In addition to these many farmers
are now growing sugar beets, about
1900 acres having been put into this
crop which is a comparatively new
crop for this county. There is an in
creased sugar beet acreage each year
the locality about the village of Nor
gan being especially given to this
crop.
Redwood County is also rapidly
becoming a dairy county. Every
where good creameries provide con-
venient markets for dairy products
as the many elevators provide mar
keting facilities for the grain crops.
The county now has more than $4,000
dairy and beef cattle, $4,000 hogs,
10000 horses and 800 sheep. During
the recent years much Of the Coun-

percent of the teachers in the rural
and semi graded schools last year
were Redwood County people who
had fitted themselves to teach school.
Standard tests are given in the
graded and high schools; this tends
to bring the work up to the stand
ard maintained by good schools
everywhere To improve the chill
dren's health has long been one of
the definite aims here. For many
years a county school nurse had
charge, at the present time the
teachers are carrying on the work
under the direction of the State Di-
rector of Physical and Health Edu-
cation. Supervised play is given
much attention and County Play
Day was held first in May, 1925.
Every effort is made to promote the
fare of the children of Redwood
County. A close cooperation between
the schools and the County Child
Welfare of the children of Redwood
paid Executive Secretary, to help the
handicapped children in the schools.
During the past year crippled chill
dren have received treatment at the
State Hospital: feebje-minded chill
dren have been examined, and either
sent to the State School or helped in
their homes; delinquent boys and
girls have been helped; delinquent
children have been supervised in
splendid foster homes. Junior Red
Cross activities are conducted in the
schools. Boys and Girls Club work
is given special attention and has
long been promoted in this county.
These projects are completed and the
final demonstrations are given at
the county fair in September.
