Sensible Observations on the 1 in <
provement of Our Schools.
a
Mr. E niTou: Being desirous |
to help the cause of education in j
our county, I would like to en- f
courage and insist upon all our
teachers who possibly can, to attend
our County summer school, (
which begins at Laucustor Monday,
tho 8th of June, or the
State summer school which begins
at Rock Hill two weeks
, v
later.
c
These schools are held for the
betterment of our teachers, and
it is an advanced step in the t|
educational progress of our country,
that every live, energetic ,
teacher, who has tho good of his ^
neighbor's children and the advancement
of the cause of edu 4,
cation in our home land at heart, ,
t'
should not fail to avail himself ^
of.
o
Parents and trustees, see that
your teacher has a desire to do
better wo"k and enough interest (j
in your children's advancement ^
to attend one of these schools;
and if you have not yet elected u
a teacher, it would be well to j(
elect on condition of attendance
on ODe of these schools.
The teacher who tells you our j,
summer schools are no good, is ^
a back nurabor, and should not u
be admitted to the care of your ^
precious little ones ; for the teacher
who tries it, and does not de- j,
rive benefit from a summer 1.
school, is undoubtedly too dull t]
to teach. tj
I am sincerely sorry for the i,
the teacher who can't attend ono ,,
of these schools; and I pitv the j,
community that has a teacher j;
who does uot try to keep pace ,,
with the progress of our times. 1 [\
The average teacher will, I j ci
think, derive as much practical h
help, if not more, from our u
County summer school ; but to f<
the advanced teacher, aud to n
those who have been attending n
our schools for years, and are s(
prepared for deep thinking, tliey n
will find the courso at Ilock Hill v
very helpful. The association,
too, with so many of our best
and most cultured teachers,
should be an incentive to any
one to better work and higher j.;
aims iu life.
