BOGART HIGH SCHOOL,
BOGART, GEORGIA. .
M.H. MOORE, - - - Principal,
Miss OLIVIA BOND, - - - Assistant.
Fall Term Will Begin Monday, July 19th., 1897.
COURSE OF INSTRUCTION:
The course of study w ill be thorough, practical, and systematic.
It is believed to contain enough for business pursuits, and, all that is
necessary for a basis on which may be reared a classical education..
Students may choose and pursue"a select course; byt a regnlar, system¬
atic course will be recommended and insisted upon.
EXPENSES:
*
ist Grade, per month, * '* $1.00.
2nd w 4 4 1.25.
3rd “ 4 4 44 1.50.
4U1 44 - (4 - 1.75.
Pro rata of public fund will be deducted from above rates.
BOARD: *
Board in good families, per month, $5.00 to $8.00.
DISCIPLINE:
The Discipline of the school will be mild and persuasive, but firm
and decisive. The strictest surveillance will be held over the moral
and intellectual training of the pupils. It is believed that boys and
girls should be inspired by lofty motives to govern themselves; that they
should be taught to do right, not from fear, but from a serise of duty
and honor; to do right, not because they are watched, but because it is
right. Thus inspired and taught, they go into the world men and
women in all that the words imply; otherwise, they go out as mere
machines, unable to control themselves,—slaves to their own appetites
and passions. Proper punishment will not be spared when it becomes
necessary; but we w ish it emphatically understood that we want no
pupil in school who delights in raising disturbances and in doing wrong
bc*cause lie thinks he will never be detected in it.
LOCATION, ADVANTAGES, ETC.
Bogart High School is located in the town of Bogurt, Oconee Coun¬
ty, Georgia, on the S. A. L. R. R., 63 miles east of Atlanta, 10 miles
west of Athens, Ga. The school buildjng is comparatively a new one,
and in the near future will be arranged to comfortably seat 350 or 300
pupils.
There are four Churches—-a Baptist, a Methodist, a Christian, and
a Presbyterian—in town; und as good society, Sunday school, etc., as
are found anywhere, jjfi » .
The Principal ha» had large experience,'and has always met with
fair success. His occupation is teaching. His whole time will be given
to the school. He is not of that class that follows teaching as a step¬
ping-stone to other occupations. Ilis recent course in Normal instruc¬
tion, received at a College which is pre-eminently a teacher-trainer,
will give our school many advantages over Other schools. The Princi¬
pal promises faithful work, but feels that he can do nothing without
the co-operation of the people in and around Bogart, which is most re¬
spectfully solicited.
Devotedly competent assistance is provided for the Primary and
Intermediate Departments.
We expect to add a Music Department, this term, to our school.,
and expect this department to rank with any of other schools.
Those who huve to board their children in order to send them to
school, cannot do better than to send them to Bogart. All necessary
expenses are reasonably low. The location is healthy, the moral and
religious influences are good. There is nothing that would tend to
draw students from their studies.
A liberal putronage is solicited.* For further particulars apply to
the Principal.
