Excerpt from Report of the Superintendent of Public Instruction: Communication Gentlemen: As required by law, I herewith submit, for your consideration, the annual report of the Superintendent of Public Instruction. You will find it to contain: First, some observations and recommendations of my own, to which your attention is respectfully asked; second, a series of statistical tables, of much interest to all who desire to understand fully the growth and present condition of our system of public schools; third, the reports of the superintendents of the several counties and cities of the Commonwealth, and of the principals of the State Normal Schools, containing valuable matter relating to the interests of education in their special fields of work; and, finally, the detailed school statistics of the twenty-one hundred and eighty-seven districts into which our territory is now divided, including a summary of the whole. Present Condition of the System. A few figures will show the vast dimensions to which our system of public instruction has grown. During the past year, we had in operation eighteen thousand and sixty-seven schools, and the number of teachers employed was twenty thousand eight hundred and ninety-one. The interests of the schools are looked after by ninety-one superintendents, and fourteen thousand two hundred directors. The whole number of children in the State of school age cannot be less than one million two hundred thousand, and of these, nine hundred and thirty-six thousand seven hundred and eighty-six attended school in the year 1878. The cost of the system, not including the appropriations to normal and orphan schools, for the past year was $8,187,977 41, of which the State paid directly out of its own treasury $1,000,000. The value of our school property, as estimated by the directors in the several districts, is $24,839,820 61. A system like this should be able to produce results corresponding to the force employed, and the money expended in its work.
