Excerpt from Annual Report of the Board of Education and the Superintendent of Public Instruction of New Jersey: With Accompanying Documents, for the School Year Ending August 31st, 1889Of the two thousand six hundred and forty-two school houses in the State, one thousand two hundred and twenty-nine are reported as good or very good, two hundred and thirty nine as medium, one hundred and five as poor and sixty nine as very poor. The standards for this classification are fixed by the several county superintendents, according to the individual judgment of each, but it is safe to say that the sixty nine houses that are reported as very poor, are so far below the present requirements that they should no longer be used.The duty of providing suitable school houses rests with the districts, and this department has no power in the matter, ex cept to pronounce the building unfit for its purpose, and to withhold the State appropriation. This is a harsh penalty, and is seldom applied, and then only when all other efforts to in duce the district to repair or build anew have been exhausted. On the whole, the school houses of the State have been much improved within the past five years.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
