Annual Report Of The Athens City Schools Athens Georgia PDF Download

Excerpt from Nineteenth Annual Report of the Athens City Schools: Athens, Georgia; Session 1904-'05 The scholastic year, which closed on the alst of May, has been as prosperous as we could expect it to be under the circumstances. The total enrollment in the White schools shows an increase of ten over last year. This increase would have been much greater but for the unfortunate conditions in the first grade in the Meigs Street school. There were something like sixty pupils applying for admis sion to this grade. We attempted to relieve the situation by divid ing the grade, and holding a double daily session. This failed owing to the opposition of the pupils and parents, No course was left to me then but to forcibly transfer fifteen or twenty of these pupils to the Oconee, and Baxter Street schools. Very few of these pupils ever came back. The result was that they were virtually denied school privileges during the year.
