Duty. he Thinks Norwallr Could Nave a
High School at the Commencement of
the Next School Year.
The annual report of the Board of
School Visitors of the town of Norwalk
for the year 1895 has just been issued.
Acting Visitor John H. Light, in his
report to the Board, says:
"The mostimpurtant question to be
considered is the establishment ofu town
High School There is no unifonrsy-l
stem of High School instruction in the
town. Four districts assume to do
work along the advanced lines. and,
doubtless, do accomplish mnclr High
School Work, but the courses and re-
quirements of the High School depart-
ments of the ditfemut districts are by no
means uniform. And the present sys.
tem is expensive. It is not good busi-
ness to maintain four departments,
with practically eight teachers, when
one department with three teachers
would do better work. It is a well-
known fact that in addition to the fol
time of one teacher in every High
School department in the town, the
principal of the school gives to the work
of the some department nearly or quite
one-half of his time. This is poor eco-
noury from every conceivable stand-
point; it cost more and is worth less.

that a vote could be obtained to estab-

most respectfully urge and recommend
speedy action in the premises.”
Tire report of Secretary Charles ()lrn-
stead refers to the fact that the subject
of enlarged accomrnmlations for school
purposes in the South Norwalk district
has been largely ‘discnssed, and 'scveral
meetings held to provide for the emer-
gency, but as yet no permanent plan has
been adopted. A constantly growing
necessity exists for either the enlarge-
ment of one or both of the present school
buildings or the erection of a new house.
Also in the East .Norwalk and Over
River districts the school population has
outgrown the capacity of their respec-
tive school houses, and each of them are
colonizing one or more of their [depart-
merits, in rented and inadequate quar-

saw with this cornpimy when it was here
before, was as good as of yore, created
much merriment' and won applause, as
did Miss Gertrude Liddie, as Lulu, the
same character she assayed at her form9

and full of vivacity. F. C. Walton, as
Dolun McKinney, ‘ and Miss Emma
Howard, as Bridget, amused much ca-
chination. The entire presentation well
deserved the success it attained. '
