Description:Excerpt from Report of the Superintendent of Common Schools of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, 1867 Gentlemen: - Upon assuming control of the School Department on the first day of November last, I found the annual report, as prepared by my predecessor, Hon. C. R. Coburn, in such a state of forwardness, that I deemed it best to present it as a whole, and it will be found in the proper place. I take the present opportunity, however, to re-capitulate some of the most important facts mentioned in that report, and to communicate some views of my own. It is hoped that the whole will serve to impart needed information in regard to the working of our system of common schools, and lead to the adoption of wise measures for its improvement. Statistics. The most important facts contained in Mr. Coburn's report are the following: There were, in the school year of 1865, 1,863 school districts in the State, 13,146 schools, 16,141 teachers, and 725,312 pupils, with an average attendance of 478,066. The total cost of the school system for the entire State, including taxes levied and Ste appropriation, was for the year $4,195,258 57. The increase in the number of school districts was 25: in the number of schools, 222; in the number of children attending school, 19,932; in the average attendance at school, 18,945; and in the total cost of the system $581,020 02.
