History of the Crooksville Public Schools —Concluded crowded full nnd for the coming year the Board of Education are making arrangements to rent two rooms in town to accommodate the overflow The number of teachers has increased yearly until for the coming year we have employed a corps of 23 teachers to look after these pupils. In the High School four teachers will have charge of the work besides the Superintendent. They will be: C M Sims, of Basil, Ohio, as Principal: Miss Mary Swartzel. of Eldorado, O.; Miss Fanny Parker, of Columbus. O , and Miss Ethel Merrick of Zanesville. Mr. Sims, Miss Parker and Miss Merrick are graduates of O. S. U. while Miss Swartzel is a graduate of Ohio University at Athens. Our Board is trying to maintain the standard set by the State of Ohio for a first grade High School, by having all of the High School teachers graduates of some standard college. With such a lineup of High School teachers, is there any reason why our High School should not continue to grow, both in number of pupils, and in the quality of the work done? In regard to the new school laws, our Board has not been slow and we are bringing our schools up to the standards required for the elementary schools of the first grade as well as having a High School of the first grade. They have employed Miss Florence Burton as supervisor of Domestic Science for ten months as required by law, and Mr. ('harles Scott, besides being principal of the East Building and teaching the Eighth grade, will be known as Supervisor of Agriculture and he also has a ten months’ contract. Miss Burton will continue to teach music two days a week as last year, and will supervise the teaching of domestic science, three days per week. Both of these special teachers have ten-month contracts and will spend one month during the summer, helping the pupils in any way possible, with their home problems in domestic science, gardening, etc.
