February 26, 1940 COPY Mr. F. E. Nelson Secretary, Board of Education Brentwood, Missouri Dear Mr. Nelson: - 5 we have received the report of Mr. H. B. Masterson, high school supervie sor, who recently visited your school in company with Dr. Rufus G. Russell, county superintendent of schools. The high school is being con- tinued on the first-class list with thirty-five and one-half units of credit approved. Your transportation program for this school year is also approved. The organization of your school is proper and a satisfactory program of studies is being offered. The report shows that general shop, general ho e economics and advanced science have been added to the high school curriculum this year. we believe these to be good additions. You are to be com ended on the improvements which have been made to your four elementary buildings and high school building the past year. we note that all buildings and grounds have been reconditioned with the as- sistance of government aid and are now in good repair. The new Frazier school which includes kindergarten to and including the ninth grade is serving your needs as anticipated. The supervisor conferred with the proper authorities with reference to your educational program and problems and gave recommendations regarding these. we are favorably impressed with the improved music program which now includes one teacher in each building and one instructor in charge of instrumental music. The outstanding character education program which your school has, the good work being done in the extra-curricular activities program which has resulted in state honors to your school in debate and orations, and the well organized health program which in- cludes a full-time nurse and a physical examination of every child are very worthwhile. we trust you will approve a budget for the ensuing school year which will provide the needs of each department of your school system. When this department may be of service to your district, we shall be pleased to have you call on us. Sincerely yours Lloyd W. King State Superintendent of Schools I, si,
