Enrollment and programs boost small school standing
The school reports record total enrollment of 456 with 220 boys and 286 girls and an average daily attendance set to a new high. It is now on the approved list of second class high schools and aims to reach first class next year. The library holds 853 volumes plus 500 free texts, with agriculture teaching materials worth about 50 dollars. The compulsory attendance plan is to be enforced next year, and summer library hours are planned. An agriculture club has organized, with weekly chaperoned garden work. Officers elected include Joseph Kohn president and Stella Dorris vice president. The garden’s success depends on members’ weekly meetings, and a school picnic is announced with music by a local band.
