The Waterbury Democrat., 1933-08-01


 terday afternoon and transacted much business. There was very lit-. tie discussion on any matter with the exception of the recommends. tion of the. school house commit, tee with reference to the roof of the Crosby High school. Chairman Walsh and Inspector White ex- plained that mulch money has been sepnt repairing the roof, still it leaks constantly and. that the
 only remedy was a new roof. The committee was authorized to look for bids.
 On recommendation of the com
 mittee on rules. the following conn
 munication was adopted: A recent enactment by the gen. eral assembly concerning the en- trance age of children to first grade has made it necessary to revise the
 local regulations. Therefore, to conform with the state law it is recommended by the committee on rules that Section l. Page 22, be revised to read as fol- lows:
 Section 1. Only children who shall attain the age of five years on or before January 1st following opening of the schools, shall be ad- mitted to the kindergarten and only
 children who shall attain the age of six years on or before January 1st
 shall be admitted to the first grade during the months of September and October only. In schools where there is no Kindergarten pupils who have reached the age of five years and six months before the opening
 of the fall term shall be admitted
 to the first grade. l On recommendation. of the corn- mittee on rules, no change was
 made in the school lines on Chip
 man street. On recommendation of the committee on text books, "An-
 cient Civiliza ton" by D. c. Heath
 was purchased for use in the high
 schools. The petition of Mrs
 Schneider to have her child remain in Bunker Hill school, instead of being sent to Roosevelt, refused | some time ago, was ,reconsidered and referred to the committee on rules for further consideration and report. It was voted that Superin- tendent Condon be authorized to act as supervisor of Oronoke. East Mountain and Park road schools. The state law requires that all I schools have a supervisor and MT Condon was appointed to the posi- tions named on petition of the dis trict committees. The bills for the
