The ai!ovo Is tho standing of the
scholars of tho Lehlghton nigh School
during tho sc.'iool year which has Just
closed. This is by no means all the
scholars that have .attended during the
year, but only thoso .-vhoso names ap
pear on tho roll during i ho last month.
There were some who cam 1 late In the
year 1873 and left early in lt?74, whoso
names do not appear on the list, simply
because we do not consider it proper to
compare the grado ot those who Imv
labored faithfully during the year and
have endured tho brunt and toll of
eight long and often weary months: be
cause we do not consider It Just to com
pare the work of thoso earnest students
with the ignis fatuus endeavors of others
who simply came to school for a short
time becauso they did not know what
else to do. During the year we have
made progress, and wo do not consider
ourselves as egotistical, when we say we
have done as well as could be reasonably
expected from us under the circumstan
ces tn which we were placed.
In looking over tho abovo report it
will be r.eeti that there are three col
umns tho first called Term Grade; 2nd
Examination Grade;3rd AverageGrade.
These ate computed respectively as fol
lows: During the terra all lessons re
ceived the following marks. When a
lesson was perfect the mark received for
it was lu; a failure to recite a lessin
received 0, and all Intermediate marks
between 0 and 10 were received accor
ding as the pupil recited. At the end
of the week these averages wero count
ed up and the grade tor the week was
marked down. At the end of the year
these grades wero counted up and the
giade tor the year was made, which in
tiiu report is called Term Uraue. On
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday,
April 22nd, 23rd and 24th, examina
tions wero held In the Academy, which
wero marked In tho same manner and
the average of these taken and called
examination grade. Thus, say a person
received 9.05 for Penmanship, 0.45 for
Mental Arithmetic, 8.75 forSpelllog.10.
for Reading, 10 for Written Arithmetic,
8.43 for Grammar, 5.42 for Geography,
&c, his grade would be 01.70 tho sum
ot all divided by 7, number of lessons,
or 8.81 examination grade. The aver
age grade is made out by multiplying
term grade by 2, adding In the exami
nation grade and dividing by 3. This
manner of marklug pupils we found by
expeitenco on the whole to be tto simp
lest and most Just, whilst at tho same
timo It gave the best satisfaction to both
pupil and teacher.
By referring to the abovo report, it
will be seen that there were many
scholars who have only n term grade.
The reason ot this Is, that when it was
announced that there would be an exam
ination, and tho day set tor said exam
ination, there was a falling off of pupils,
which continued uutil the very day of
examination. This is something which
the teacher cannot prevent. He can and
must have the obedience ot his scholars
whilst lu the school room, and at the
same time it is his evident duty to In
struct the pupils when they come to
school, but he cauuot, nor dare It be
asked of him, that ho should bring them
into the school room. This duty de
volves upon the parents and school
directors. Surely tliero Is no oue but
will acknowledge that It is proper to
hold an examination before the school
closes, but yet how many parents allow
ed their children to stay away becauso
they dreaded the examination, way be
seeu by referring to the above report.
Strauge Inconsistency, to send children
to school for eight months, to let them
have a full review of all they have
gone over during the year and then be
cause they dread tho examination, to
allow them to use their own pleasure
about attending It when Itis well known
that they will shrlk It If possible. It
Is the Directors duty to see to this, and
It Is binding upon parents not to permit
It. Parents are committing a grave
error by allowing their children to at
teud school only when they desire, and
tn use their own pleasure In matters of
such import. This uiuoh fur tho High
School.
Concerning the other schools of the
borough, we cannot but speak compli
mentary, for the teachers and scholars
both have .faithfully and manfully
discharged the duties andresponslblltes
plaoed upon them. They have energeti
cally, and, wo hope, successfully com
batted the many difficulties with which
they wero surrounded. With school
buildings that are a disgrace to a borough
of suoh standing as Ijehlghton, with
overcrowded rooms, and without any of
the appliances and apparatus which
are a help to tho teachers, they have
courageously gono forward with their
worn.
Concerning the work done, we can
not speak as plainly and, fully as we
desire la as much as we were not per
mitted to examine aud grade them, tho
Director not thinking it necesyiry, aud
not giving us Ihe time so to do. Our
Directors havo perhaps been somewhat
dlrelect in ttio visiting of tho schools,
but a sufficient excuso for this can be
found in that they had their timo taken
up and engrossed In tho now nnd costly
school building which during tho past
year thoy have successfully reared and
almost brought to completion although
combatng much opposition and preju
dice In their earnest work. They havo
erected a monument which will long
tt-md -as .a mark of their earnest
lies', and a sign of their having
given their wholo mind and heart
to the bettering ot tho educa
tional opportunity of the youth of Leh
lghton. Vo havo bright hopes for tho
Lehlghton Schools, since the people havo
been aroused and have .made room for
thq education of tlicJr children. With
the opportunities offered by the now
school house, and competent teachers,
wo see no bar to Lehlghton having as
good scholars as any borough of Its
slzo, nor do we .seo any reason why,
with .Its preseut.fulr educational pros
pect;, it should not take .Its proper
position In tho educational arena as it
has so successfully done in all others.
