Annual report highlights in Ellsworth schools and attendance issues
The annual report by Superintendent W H Dresser notes weekly teacher reports improving touch with both city and out district schools, praises exemplary teacher work, and outlines concerns about 1812 enrolled ages four to twenty one with 638 sixteen to twenty one, 45 not attending, and 50 connected elsewhere. Dresser proposes next year funding totaling 9850 for common and high schools, text books, and schoolhouses, while stressing education as lasting value amid youth leaving school early.
