COUNTY HIGH SCHOOLS
SET RECORD DURING 1890
Number of Students Completing
FOurth-Year Studies Called
The Highest
BOARD PREPARES DATA

A larger percentage of white pupils
enrolled in public schools in the coun-
ties completed their fourth year of
high school in 1880 than in any pre-
ceding year, it was. announced Satur-
day by the State Department of Edu-
cation. ....
At the close of the school year last
June there were 1000 white pupils en-
rolled in the last year of county high
schools, it was reported. The number
of boys enrolled in the fourth year of
high school was one-sixth that of
boys in the first grade, while the num-
Der of girls was one-third of the num-
Der enrolled in the second grade, the
report said. The maximum enrolment
for boys and girls, 17,777, was found
in the first grade. In the last three
years of high school there were en-
rolled 700 more girls than boys.
Decreased After Fourth Grade
After the fourth grade the number
of pupils enrolled decreased gradual
ly. From the first to the seventh
grades, inclusive, the number of boys
exceeded the number of girls, al
though in the last few years there
have been more girls than boys in the
seventh grade.
All the counties have seven-grade
elementary systems, with the excep-
ton of Allegany, Anne Arundel and
Washington counties, and in Mont
gomery county schools adjacent to the
District of Columbia, it was explained.
1O,140 Graduated Last Year
White pupils graduated from coun-
ty elementary schools in 1880 totaled
10,140, it was reported. Of this num-
Der, 4,857 were boys and 5,283 girls.
This number represented 9 percent of
the white boys enrolled in elementary
schools and 1915 percent of the girls.
In the seven-grade system, assuming
stationary enrolment, the maximum
percent to graduate would be 14.3.
The highest percentage of boys
graduating from seven-grade elemen-
tary schools was in Talbot county,
with II percent, while the lowest was
in Dorchester, with 10 percent. The
highest percentage of girls graduating
was in Kent county, with IA percent,
while the lowest was in Howard, with
SO percent. In FIVE counties, Garrett,
Howard Montgomery, St. Mary's and
Prince Georges the boy graduates
outnumbered the girl graduates, it
was reported.
