CEREDO DISTRI6THIGH
Hit ®i‘ __ ; | , '■
Mr. Editor: Dunlelth, W. V«., June 7. 1915.
On Saturday, June 12, 1915, the voters of Ceredo
District will be given an opportunity to vote on the
question of establishing a High School at the Cen
tral Graded School Building, near Dunleith. If es
tablished our boys and girls would be enabled to se
cure at home the same two*year course they now re
ceive at Marshall College and Ceredo in a like period
of time. And instead of the patron having to pay
for books and board for the child sent away to school
he would make a clear saving on these two items.
The Board of Education would furnish the books
and the child would board at home.
Now we have the building and $4,000 in the
building fund, which amount would not have to be
touched; and we have $2,300 in the teachers* fund.
In addition thereto we would receive annually from
the state the sum of $400. This you will readily see
would enable us to conduct the High School without j
increasing the present levy one cent, and at the same
time would permit the pupil to receive at home the
same education that costs on an average of $1 a day
by attending school elsewhere.
Another thing. If the High School proposition
is voted down, our Board of Education, under a late
law, would be compelled to pay each pupil who at
tends school out of the county the sum of $2.50 per
month for nine months, or a total of $22.50 per year.
With thirty students attending at the above rate,
together with the $400 to be derived from the state,
would more than support the proposed High School.
So, Mr. Citizen, bear these facts in mind when
you go to cast your vote next Saturday and help
place old Ceredo District on a higher school plane.
