Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Annual Report of the School Committee of the Town of West Roxbury, 1852 In conformity with a statute of the State, and a custom which has become indispensable, the School Committee of the Town of West Roxbury offer their first Annual Report. They do so with a full consciousness of the importance of the trust which has been confided to them. They believe that there is no office, in the gift of the people, of greater moment, or more productive of good or evil. The character of a generation is in their hands, and the welfare of a community is, in a great degree, dependent on their zeal and fidelity. The powers given to them by the State and Town, if neglected or abused, may entail consequences disastrous to the well being of society; or, if rightly and faithfully employed, may be instrumental in securing to the future, an intelligent, well-informed, and orderly population. We trust it will not be considered irrelevant or presumptuous, if, in relinquishing a charge which by some of us will not be renewed, we endeavor to impress upon our constituents, how essential it is to exert a careful judgment in the choice of a School Committee. The office is not one for the exercise of favoritism, and the partialities or repugnancies which arise from political or sectarian prejudices, should be forgotten in the paramount consideration, that the selection involves the question, whether a good education shall, or shall not, be extended to our children. Those, therefore, should be elected, whose peculiar qualifications fit them for the work, and whose devotion to party or sect will not make them alike unmindful of the public good and the laws of the Commonwealth, which wisely prohibit the introduction of questions calculated to embarrass the legitimate course of school instruction.
