A real effort has been extended on the part of the Van Lear Board
of Education and Mr. Burchett to find the best teachers possible.
It is honestly believed that the teachers selected are well
qualified, have good moral and religious principles and will do a
splendid job this year.
All parents are urged to get their children in school and see
that they come regularly.
It has been announced by the attendance officer that all children
of school age, who are able to attend must be in school. A
regular check will be made by the attendance officer.
It is the duty of every parent to see that their children receive
the best education possible, and without the backing of every
parent, no school can do more than half a job. It has been said
that most children show about the same interest in school as
their parents do. All parents are urged to visit school
regularly, cooperate with the teachers and help make this school
year one of the best.
