Description: Annual Report includes a list of all of the staff by department, with their educational credentials and positions.  The Board of Directors' and Superintendent's reports highlight events and contributions of the last year, and thank the generous supporters.  Statistics on children cared for that year include enrollment data, recent graduates, counties of origin, names of orphans, and whether they are of Masonic parentage.  Summaries of the various departments (printing, singing, shoe, health, farm, dairy, and garden, electric, and school) give details about student participation, benefits received, and suggestions for expansion or continuation.  The Principal's Report is about the success of the school's Parent-Teacher Association and the students' scholastic achievements, compared to averages around the state.  Other details are included about student participation in and use of Scouts, the library, home economics, clothing department, the vocational agriculture program, food, spiritual and religious activities, recreation, the swimming pool, and the school grounds.  Finally, summaries about staff, funds, needs, and finances complete the report.
