To the Honorable Grand Jury of Tift
County:
: Gentlemen: In compliance with your
request I beg to . submit the following
report of the rural schools and school
conditions of Tift County:
The school census of 1913 shown that
Tift county bad, at that time, 3000
children within school agd, 2183 white
and 91(1 colored. The census of IMS
shows that we have 3081—2034 white
and 1047 colored. This gives an -in
crease of 582 or about JJJ& 1-2 per cent.
Our school bouses, as a whole, are
above the . average iu Georgia. The
houses for white chlldrer are all paint
ed inside and out, seated with single
patent tujsxs, most ot them nave amau
uoranes, many are supplied witn maps
and globes, seven schools have pianos,
four of which were put iu during the
past year. The physical condition of the
majority of our schools is Very good, but
not what it ought to. be. The value of
the school houses and property under
the county, systenr is estimated . at $55,-
100.00. This is less than the value of
our splendid court house of which we
are so proud. And yet the schools ar
the factory of future citizens. The boy
and girls are thy State’s greatest nsspt
And no expenditure is too great if
.Quality them tq return the investment
to' the State with profits.
The times are htfpeful i the tendency
is townrd better rural schools; many.of
our patrons arc thinking along progres
sive school lines. One community has
voted bonds; to build an up-to-date mod
ern buildipk and others are looking in
that dirccljoii. 'A brighter day for schools
is downing.
In 1017 we had" twenty-eight schools
taught by sixty teachers of whom four
teen were mali^nd forty-six female
Two schools ^re discontinued nnd iu
1018 there Were twenty-six’ schools taught
by fifty-six teachers of whom sev
male and forty-nine female.
We now have sixteen negro schools
taught by twenty teachers. Gcner&y
these schools are not. very commendflole
except the Tift County Training School,
It is in good condition and is doing sonic
good work.
The enrollment for 1917 was 2012
whites and 1010 colored.* The average
attendance of whites was 1352, of colored
083. In 1917 there were ninety-seven
pupils in the High school grades.
1018 there were 02.
The enrollment for 1917 were 1350
boys, 1227 girls, total 2583. The col
ored were 444 boys and 555 girls, total
000. Average attendance was 1240 for
the whites and 570 for the colored.
