SUN-LEADER PRINTING HOUSE. 1896, A OFFICE STATE SUPERINTENDENT PUBLIC INSTRUCTION, To His Excellency, W. A. Richards, Governor of Wyoming.

OFFICE STATE SUPERINTENDENT PUBLIC INSTRUCTION, To the Legislature: Complying with the requirements of Chapter 5, Laws of Wyoming, 1889-'90, I respectfully transmit to the Legislature information relating to the condition of the public schools of the state for the period from September 30, 1894, to September 30, 1896, and I respectfully invite the members of your body to visit this department for examination of its records and methods of work. Yours Very Respectfully, ESTELLE REEL. Superintendent of Public Instruction. 72810 REPORT. OFFICE STATE SUPERINTENDENT PUBLIC INSTRUCTION, CHEYENNE, Wyo., Nov. 1, 1896. As required by the provisions of Chapter 5, Section 1, Laws of 1890, I have the honor to submit herewith my biennial report of the condition of the public schools of this state. The statistics published herein for the years 1895 and 1896 are as complete as it is possible to get them under present conditions. Let it be recorded to the credit of the people of Wyoming, that they hold the interests of education second to none, and that the immense amount of money needed to carry on our system of public schools has been paid by them cheerfully. The present facilities of this department for obtaining correct and reliable statistics of the educational work of the common schools have embarrassed me and I find that this has been the experience of my predecessor. County Superintendents have often been unable to obtain from the subordinate officers sufficiently accurate data to enable them to formulate their reports to this office. It should be a prominent feature of any law enacted for the schools that the securing from school officers the requisite data for tabulating accurate statistics of education within the state is made sure and reliable. |
