Report of Superintendent Bullard,
schoot irouser.--The number erected Or
finished in the county during the . year,
wan 22:. .
Many, of them are decidedly - good ones
compared with those they take the place
ot, but Ido not consider any such a su
perior kind as to require a separate, des
enption. One built in Brooklyn .is two
stories,;with the view of ace einodating a
graded, school at some future time.
• In some of thedistricts, upon the new
houses are placed green window
which adds much to: the. neat and -tasty
appearance external, and still more to the
opmfort.and couveltienCe of those who
, occupy the inside:
' • Painifure.—Not any of the houses have
,been furnished with suitable or sufficient
furniture, isicoPt those built during the
year, and not all of them.
Graded . Schools.--The only well graded
'school in the connty is in the borough of
New Milford, and it has fairly earned for
Itself the name of being the best school in
the county under the supervision of direc
tors. ' t . •
have visited all'. the
khools in the county once during • the
year, , ,(except two or three, not open .du
nng'my visitations in _ the district,) 34
twice, and 15 three times. - Owing to the
large number of schools, in the county,.,
(266) the shortness of the term, the ex
tent of territory to be traversed, I find it
'almost impossible to visit all the" schools
even once during the year. To fully learn
the praetidal ability of the. teacher, and
the progress of the scholars , the Superiii-, -1
tendent should be able to spend full one
halfday at the commencement, and the
setae length of titr.e•at dr near the clode
of the term.
- The number of visits known, by the di
'rectors, to all the schools in the 'county'
during the year; was 370, and the number
of visits known, by citizens, was 1,210, a
much larger number I think than usual.-
-The 'district in which.thi-titizens took the
lead in visiting their schools,was Jackson,
where 180 visits by citizens, were report
.ed for the winter term. The next high
est number was made by the citizens of
Brooklyn. I can say, without. the least
fear of. contradiction, that where the di
rectors and. citizens visit the schools the
most, where,they manifest the g reatest
amount:of interest in regard to houses,
teachers and schools,
there they have de
eidely the best schools, and childree
are maiming the greatest advancement.
- District 'lnstitutes.—Some eight or more
were organiled during the year, attended
by dome 60 or 70 teachers..' The effect of
. _these institutes- are always good when
ftbey 'receive the attention and-enconrage
ment they should from both teachers and,
eitizens.• *I was greatly.. pleaied to learn
that -the Legislature (in its wisdom). bad
fixed, among other: things, the, teachers
month, and provided also for the helding
of Teacher's Institutes in each school dis
trict,s—a measure calculated to do .much
lasting good. . P
hfode of Examining Teachers.—The oral,
-.written arid .topical methods wereCoin
hined, letting the oral method ' predomi
nate. lam fully satisfied that liv Combin
ing.the three modes,the' real - qualifications
'of ail in• a class are ranch more likely to
.be found out, than by adopting either c,ne,
to the exclusion of the others.
I find that many times members of a
class will ansWeronestions srelland satis-,
. factory if they can write theni down,
while others will answer eqUally as well
orally,but could not correctly write them;
—hence the necessity of using both,meth ,
ods ,in 'order that all may be treated
. - fairly.. • , • .
'Teachers' Qualifications.—The average
qualifications of the whole number of cab
didates examined in , the year, compared
with those of last - year, should think
about . the.same, but as the number -refus
ed certificates - thif: year was much larger
than usual, I think the qualifications - of
those to' whom certificates were given;
much better than those of last - year, es
pecially in the theory • and - practice of
teaching. In marking certificates the past
year, it hasheen my object to raise
: the
standard se as .to • conform as nearly as
possible, to the Instructions of the State
Department, relative to uniformity of
qualifications throughout the State.
" "Female Teachers.--,-The.proportion of fe
male teachers employed, in comparison
With last year, is much greater. The war
'mistaken from among us quite a, j number
of Male teachers, and their places were
supplied in many instances by females ;•
and the result was generally beneficial
: to.
' our ichatilsJor.acirite districts were ena,
bled,tiihave longer terms of Schools . for
theiente.amOunt of money, as the female
teachers ~ receive les&
~ivitgei 'di* the
males:, _ . -
Summer, and Winfrr Sehoole.--Every'
district in the county (With' one , excep
tion) has what is termed summer and
winter-schools, but in some of the. dis
tricts the terms ire so labort (2i. months)
Chat but Tel' little benefit can be'received

that were put into , practice during - the
year for the impreveMent of the adminis,

satisfaction as far aSI can learns and they
still be continued' during.the next year.J. expect to'devOte the Whole of •iny time
during the year,to the regular exaMintion
of teachers inspr, sauce of their respective
'boards -of directors; the.visitatiohs of the
scheols,attending institulei and preparing
suitable articles for the'-educational de
.partment -of our county papers. •- • 1
Public Sentiment.—A -large .portion of
'
the citizens of the county regard the 'pub s
' lie school systetu with. •great fever, and
the number is steadily :increasing ; but
that we still have some who bittiiiily• op
pose it, cannot be : denied. - The
. troubles
-that have existed in our opce•happy •and
prosperous country, during the past year
have had their effect in reference to ban
oation,.but not of 843 serious - a charactAr
as yet, as was_at flirt anticipated. They
have had a tendency to shorten the terins
of schoolS•in some districts, and to reduce
the Wagc , - of teachers in nearly - all of
them. To meet•these ill effects, I know
of no better Way than fertile oflieers, and
all the true friends of (amisen schools, to
labor with renewed energy and 'zeal to
sustain theth.. -
Supplement to Ithe School Lalc.-ZI am
much pleased-with nearly all the of the
sections to the supplement to the school
law, passed at the last session of the Leg
iSlature, and will try- and be satisfiediiir
the present ; hoping hot ever, that the
day is-not fir distant when • out schools

throughout the State, 'thus 'relieving the
poorer e,inntie's frOm their high tax . and,

the year, was much greater than usual,
'and their influence is materially felt in
our public schools for the better. .
Teachers' -Associations.—" The Susque,
hanna County' Teachers'-Asseciation, 'has
been're.owanized, and held four very. in
teresting and profitable sessions during
Lthe year: The attendance wilts usually
large and the exercises generally pleasing
and, instructive. „
Suggestion:L*4i, font months' school
term being entirely to short; I would sng
gest that the law be so ambnded, as to
require six months as the mininiun,instead
of - fOur, as at present; believing that it
would give general . satisfaction, and - that
in a short - Sim° the tax payers would coin
.
plain less than they, d • i,,nOw-.
' I 'would also recenWnd that the minis
her of directors in each board be reduked
to three, their duties more definitely fixed
and that they be paid. for their.services..
Future Prospects,—Ore encouraging
feature as so'the futute,•is the tact, that
the directors as well as the 'people, from
year to. yew...seem more *lined to . give
. their aid, itiflitence and support to its ben
eficial aneratiOns. Another is that the
teacholrs, such atleast as intend to con=
tinuesTer , some :time in the, rankis of
the profeession', or labor from . fight
motives,- are diligently , striving •• to
fit themselves better }Pr the -discharge • of
their important - and arduonS duties', ,And '
, perhaps as striking a chaege , for the ' bet- ,
• ter-as can - be named,issite building of hew,
•
commodious and convenient school houses
in different parts pf the comity. •
On the other hand, one •se: isms obstacle
in the way ef - haVing superior. schools, is
the fact that - issomes. directors employ
thoSes-who call themselves- teachers, be
canse they will work .cheap - , without ta
king fulibient• pains, to . find out .whether
theyare - really teaehers or not., As it , is
now, in many of ' our' schools are found
teaclits . s with . certificates 'of the lowest .

.s..
"sional certificates are unemployed .from
the , fact that they ¬ feel willing to
