6 THE AMER1CUS DAILY TIMES-RECORDER: SATURDAY, APRIL 18, 1891. OOOI> TIKE TO COME. The Papll. mud Teacher, of the Public School, Complimented. The board of education held tnelr monthly meeting yesterday evening in the office of the president, Major M. Speer. The members of the board were in excellent good humor. The report of the superintendent made every one pres ent feel good and be proud of the suc cess of the schools. To let the citizens of Americas and the people of the state know what this city is doing for the education of the masses, the following data from the su perintendent's report are given: Number of pupils matriculated— 1,512. Enrollment in Jackson street school— 636. Enrollment in McKay hill school—813. Total enrollment to date—1,449. Attendance this week in Jackson street school was 525, and in McKay hill school, 581. Ever since the opening of the schools, the attendance has been excellent in every grade of all departments, the seats being every day occupied by pupils. The board of education felt that the school children and the teachers should be encouraged in their well doing, and decided that, although the white schools were four weeks late at the fall opening, a week’s vacation be given to the schools from April 25th to May 3rd. Another reason for the coming vacar tiou is that the pupils have advanced In their studies nearly as much as if they had been taught tho full number of weeks. The vacation will give the teachers an opportunity to attend the State Teach era’ Association, which will meet in Brunswick from April 28th to May 1st • The generosity of the board of educa tion could not fail to receive the en dorsement of The Times-Recohder, and for this timely and wise action the board will no doubt be thanked by the tmehers, the pupils and the parents. letter Lift.
