The- Perquimans , County
Board of Education met here
Monday night in the Super
intendent's office in the Per
quimans County Courthouse
and vacancies in the school
faculty were filled.
The resignation of Fran
ces Marshbourne, who' has
been teaching the seventh
grade in Hertford Grammar
School , was accepted. The
employment of Mrs. Julian
A. (Minnie) White to fill the
vacancy was approved.
The employment of Miss
Mary Morris and Miss Fran
ces Marshbourne by . the
E.S.E.A) Office was approved
by the Board. -
During the meeting the
board voted to approve the
extension of the period of
absence because of sickness
for Mrs. Fenton ( Elizabeth )
Britt and George' Reid. ,
. It was decided that the old
house on , the property which
the Board is in the, process
of acquiring would be given
to the Hertford "Fire Depart
ment upon the receipt of the
deed of the property by the
Board.
A lengthy discussion of
Compliance Plans" for the
1967-68 term ensued, how-
eber ' no decisions, on the
matter were made.
The instruction program in
the schools was discussed at
length. : It was pointed ' out
that the teaching of English
was the most difficult of all
teaching. A thorough knowl
edge of English is needed for
all other phases of instruc
tion, and the Board resolved
to give greater support and
emphasis to the teaching of
bnglish in the future.
D. H; Eure made a motion
which was seconded by John
Danchise and a resolution
was passed to offer for sale,
in the manner prescribed by
