ENROLLMENT INCREASE
AT HOUGHTON SCHOOL
On Sunday the Herald carried a re
port on comparative enrollment this i
year and last in the public schools
which was read by Superintendent Ev-»
ana to the trustees at the regular meet
ing of the Board of Education Satur
day.
It is Interesting to note from the re
tort that the school which some time
ago was said to he the one which had
reached its limit in enrollment was
the one to show the greatest increase i
of all, including both high schools of j
the city. This is the Houghton school.
J. T. Spears, principal, whose increase
in enrollment over this time last year
is 65 pupils. There are now 570 child
ren on roll at Houghton, averaging 40
to the teaehet.
The school coming next to Hough
ton in increased enrollment Is the
Richmond Academy, with a gain over
last year of 39. Houghton’s increase is 1
37 more than the increase shown in !
any other grammar school in the sys- i
tem.
All of which speßks mighty well for
Houghton and its principal and teach
ers.
