The custodial staff of 727 employees
was increased in the appropriations
act for 1888 by s positions, distributed
as follows: Dennison Vocational
School, 4; Grimke Elementary School
l; Truesdell Elementary School, l:
Young Elementary School, /; Shep-
herd Elementary School, l.
In 1867 there were salaries for
3,018 teachers. To this number were
added 54 salaries for the fiscal year
1878. These salaries are distributed
as follows: 36 for white schools and
18 for colored schools.
The SO salaries for the white schools
are distributed as follows: 13 senior
high schools, Is junior high schools,
10 elementary schools.
The 18 salaries for the colored
schools are distributed as follows:
senior high schools, 2 junior high
schools, II elementary schools.
AS in the case of officers, the teach
ing staff of 1867 was depleted dur
ing the year by death, resignation and
retirement. The positions thus left
vacant and the new positions created
in the appropriations act for the COM
ing year will be filled by appointment
of qualified persons who have passed
the examinations and been given
places on the rated lists awaiting as
signment.
School Enrolment.
The increased enrolment on the
opening day of school during the past
five years as compared with the en-
rollment on the opening day of the
preceding year is as follows:
Uoor D,,,>;1
Evening star., 1937-09-12

The above table shows that the en-
rollment on the opening day of school
in September, 1882, was 1922 pupils
more than on the opening day of
school in 1881 Some idea of the diff
Guilty in estimating the increased en-
rollment in the schools each year will
be indicated by the fact that in Sep
tember, 1888, the enrolment was only
BIT pupils more than the enrolment
on the opening day of school in 1882.
These fluctuations are due to various
causes, but chiefly because the OPEN
ing day of school frequently falls on
Jewish holiday. 1t is also true that
when the opening day of school falls
approximately a week earlier than it
does this year the attendance on the
opening day is likely to be relatively
smaller than it is when school opens
on the Goth or 21st Of September.
While there are no actual figures
available on which to predicate a
statistical computation of anticipa ted
enrolment, general indications point
to a substantial increase in enroll
ment but relatively smaller than the
school system has experienced during
several preceding years.
