B.=P. /. Notesl
Grammar School Department.
The grammar school department of
the B. P. I. has an enrollment of 136,
with a very good average attendance.
As a usual thing the children are
very p'rompt, considering the distance
they must come, but w«f shall not be j
satisfied until our record is as nearly
perfect as we can make it.
We expect ('written excuses from
tardy and absent pupils upon their
return to school. This us to
know just what the children are do
ing and where there were only a few
cases of attempted truancy last year,
and I believe with vigilance on our
part we can avoid truancy altogether.
In grading the children this year
we are using the grades as printed
on the report cards, with in-between
gjrades designated by an x or plus
sign. The children understand and
can explain. These cards are distrib
uted on Thursday following the end
of the school month.
Come to see us; we are always giad
to have friends call.
First Grade.
The first grade began school with a
large enrollment. The first month we
made, a very good record. A few of
us were absent, but we didn t have
a single tardy mark. We want to do
this well every month.
Second and Third Grades.
The enrollment for the second and !
third grades is 38 at present. During
the month of September only one was
tardy. The regular attendance is all
very good.
Generally speaking, the work is sat
isfactory indeed. The pupils are stu
dious and seem eager to do their
work well.
Fourth Grade.
The fourth grade began school with
a verv good record. In the first month
we had only four absentees and a
very / few tardy marks. We are in
terested in our work and especially
in planning a Robinson Crusoe Sand
Table.
Fifth Grade.
The fifth grade has an enrollment
of 17, ten girls and seven boys. The
class has been divided into two sec
tions, each given a name, and contest
ing. In this way we have been do
i ing some interesting work. The side
that loses enteraints the winners in
some way.
Five of our number are taking spe
cials. We expect to hear from these
girls in the future. ,
The patrons of our class are invited
to visit us at any time and inspect
. our work.
Sixth Grade.
The sixth grade has an enrollment
of 24. Most every one is interested
and we are planning to do a good
year’s work.
Seventh Grade Boya. ,
The seventh grade boys are building
i window boxes for the school rooms.
| If you have any short pieces of lum
[ ber, one inch by eight inches, about
! thirty or more inches long, and have
! no use for it, we will appreciate your
j letting us have it. Just notify us and
! we will call for it.
I The girls begin sewing next week,
i We do not have time for this as we
[ need, but some sewing and wood work
[ must be done in the school room to
[ make our school a number one school.
