Along The Way j

Children are very important to the
people of Duplin. Evidence of this
fact can be found in county schools.
Duplin citizens are concerned
about education and support the
local schools to improve the oppor
tunities available to the students.
Concern for education did not begin
recently; Duplin citizens have always
been in the lead when providing
schools. Private school located in
Duplin were well-known as leading
educational facilities before the
public school system was established
in the 1830s.
Today as in the past Duplin
citizens support the local public
school system and seek ways to
improve both the facilities and the
curriculum. A grand jury of Duplin
citizens inspected county schools and
filed a report in 1935 about the
conditions of the buildings. Not only
does the report help us realize the
locations of school in our county at
that time, it also gives us some idea
of what kind of facilities were used.
The report does not deal with the
quality of the school curriculum, only
the state of the buildings. The report
was published in the February 7,
1935 issue of THE DUPLIN
HERALD.

public record in the county in ';cent
