Public School motes. The attention of the patrons of the Rensselaer schools, is called to the fact that the children attending the primary grades are too irregular. A pupil who is irregular can not go through work, as one who is there every day. Each has his daily work, and if he fails to do it, his standing is lowered and his advancement will not be steady. Prof. Reubelt suggests, that when the weather is baa, the father should bring his children in the morning, when possible, and come for them in the evening, permitting them to bring their dinners. The per centum of attendance was cut down during December by the absentees in the primary grades. Tiwreport for Deoembor 1885 is not ae good aa in previous months. Total Enumeration for 1836 483.
