School Year 193511936 The year of 1935-1936 is one of the most outstanding in accomplish- ment since the school was opened January 30, 1930. In no other year has the Patrons' Association and Mothers' Circle purchased as much and as lasting equipment for the school as in this year. In November, 1935 it was decided to purchase pictures for the corri- dors. The following were purchased: The Dawn of Intelligence by Pothast Awakening of Spring by M. K. Wachtel Cathedral of Haarlem by F. Van Vreeland Autumn Jewels by G. Wiegand Bouquet by Slavona Flowers by Slavona In April the following pictures were bought to be used for class- room decoration: Galahad, The Deliverer by Edwin A. Abbey Pueblo Indian by R. W. Amick Holland by Jules Celos Patience by E. Iverd Faith by E. Iverd A Winning Tack by Montague Dawson The Buccaneers by Frank Brangwyn Three Little Pigs by Renee Barnes Nancy Lee Playmates by Renee Barnes In addition to pictures some very valuable books have been added to our school library: Two sets of the Human Interest Library One set of Encyclopedia called Facts Prizes for the rooms given by the Mothers' Circle included the fol- lowing books: Drobry by Monica Shannon The Story of Music by Theodore Stearns The Book of Musical Knowledge by Arthur Elson Now We Are Six by A. A. Milne When We Were Very Young by A. A. Milne The House at Pooh-Corner by A. A. Milne The room library grows from year to year with books bought as the need arises. Our School room library now numbers more than one hundred books. The children and teachers of Kennard School are indeed fortunate that the Patrons' Association and the Mothers' Circle provide the accessories which tend to beautify the school and which also make school life more pleasant and beneficial.
