The larger schools are able to have a badly needed librarian and a guidance teacher, a full-time . physical education teacher, a full-time band instructor. All these are needed. Peeler discussed the three wmie iiigii scnoois in me county from memographed sheets showing number of pupils enrolled in the high schools, number of teachers and subjects taught. John Graham High School has a high school enrollment of 211 and 10 teachers. One English teacher teaches 156 students daily, making it impossible to assign frequent themes to the students. Band is offered and the instructor's salary is paid by the Rotary Club. Seven courses are taught by teachers out of-field. Guidance is the responsibility of the principal. Norlina High School has an enrollment of 155 with 8 teachers. One English teacher teaches 127 students daily. The principal teaches a class or supervises a study hall every period during the day. The principal has only student sec i ciai iui neip. vruiaance xs me responsibility of the principal. The school does not have a librarian. The school does not have a band. Littleton High School has an enrollment of 99 with six teachers. The principal teaches two classes. The school has a part time secretary. The PTA pays the salary of a part-time secretary. 1 Latin is a tuition-paid course. Almost 100 per cent of the boys take Agriculture. One course is taught by a teacher out-of-field. Guidance is the responsibility of the principal. The Agricultural teacher could easily teach more students. Foreign language offerings are inadequate. The school does not have the services of a \| librarian. Littleton has the greatest ; problem of the three white high schools. Peeler said. At the same time it offers the ^ greatest problem of consolidation due to distance and the ;^j further fact that it also draws pupils from Halifax County. A by-product of consolidation of the high schools is the improvement of the elemen- 'im tary schools. Peeler quoted the superintendent of Meeklenburg County, Va., as stating. and adding that the Improvement in the elementary schools is remarkable when the high school is withdrawn. Peeler said that consolida tion snould not be forced on the people and that action -"a should not be premature. There are many problems to be solved before consolidation can take place, princtpidly m those of finance. He pointed I out that first it would be necessary to consolidate 13 small Negro schools, and to spend some money at John R. Haw kins School. But the gains through consolidation would be many. He summed up these with lft ; points as follows: 1. Build the consolidated . | school half way between War- ^ renton and Norllna. 2. Better teachers teaching $ in field. 3. Would better meet the J neeas o* uie students. 4. Better equipment, 5. Bettei library service. 6. Provide full-time guM7. Provide a non-teaching . M principal. 8.
