Public School Rules Debate Teaches One-Year Teacher Tenure
The School Committee debate centers on electing teachers to hold office during good behavior. A minority report favors serving at the committee’s pleasure, while a City Solicitor's view questions term specification and continuity after election. Other orders address school closings, new principals, and funding for reports and infrastructure. The annual abstracts show tax and population shifts across the Commonwealth. The State Lunatic Hospital reports strong management and rising patient totals. Lunatic Hospital extensions are planned with funding needs noted. The State Board of Agriculture outlines a December Greenfield meeting with lectures on dairy and farm topics, with free rail travel for attendees.
