The average daily attendance at present is: elementary schools, 13,225; junior high schools 2,810; senior high schools, 2,251; kindergar- ten, 676. M. E. Pearson, superintendent of schools, has watched and directed this development. He is one of the outstanding educators of the state and has placed the work of the schools on a high standard. M. E. PEARSON Superintendent F. L. Schlagle, assistant superintendent of Kansas City schools, was formerly principal of Argentine high school. Under his direction the work of the school was raised to a high standard and the school exceeded all of its former records of achieve- ment. It was at this time that it was made a junior- senior high school. In 1924 he was appointed to his present position, in which he is doing much to ad- vance the interests of the school system. F. L.
