AVERAGE SCHOOL RTTENDANCE
‘Tho Highest Point Wu Reached in
1 1909, According to Statistics
| WASHINGTON. 110., Dec. zip—The
highest average school attendance in
the history of the American school
system was reached in the year ’1909.
according to statistics gathered by the
United States Bureau of Education.
Figures for 1910 are not yet available.
but the opinion was expressed today
by Dr. F. B. Dresalar. of the Bureau.
that 1910 would show still better re.
.sults. '
Returns show he declared. that the"
length of the school term increased
from 144 days in 1900 to 156 lays in
1909 whila‘ in the. some period the
average number of days attended by
each pupil rose froth 99 to 113. This
means that more than half a month
has been added to the average length;
or the school term and in this particu-
lar alone educational effectiveness has
been increased during the last decade
about eight per cent.
"In 1900 our figures ahaw," he said;
. “that the average daily attendance in
the public schools was 10,632,7't2.‘
which was 68. 6 per cent. of the endoll-‘
eat: in 1909 the average daily attend-
anoe reached 12,684 887, being 72.5 per
:cent. of the number enrolled. These
figures seem to warrant the conclu-
sion that the children have attended!
the public schools more regularly dur.‘
ing the past decade than in any pre-
vious one of our educational history."
