MR. HARRY M. SHAFER, _a.s.sistant Supt. City Schools_.
MY DEAR MR. SHAFER:
In reply to your inquiry relative to the American-born j.a.panese pupils of our school, I enclose statement as to results noted in the various cla.s.ses.
Trusting that this may serve the purpose desired, and appreciating your very kindly interest,
Sincerely, LIZZIE A. MCKENZIE, _Princ.i.p.al_.
Hobart Blvd. School. January 13, 1921.
_Report on j.a.panese Pupils_
(American-born)
Many of the j.a.panese fail in First Grade on account of inability to understand the English language. In succeeding grades, progress is satisfactory as shown by the following tabulation of current date:
==================== To Be Enrolled. Promoted.
--------- ---------- B-1 16 10 A-1 7 6 B-2 5 5 A-2 4 4 B-3 1 1 A-3 1 1 B-4 2 2 A-4 0 B-5 2 1 A-5 1 1 B-6 1 1 A-6 0
Total enrolled, 40.
Total promoted, 32.
We find these children as a rule clever in use of pen and crayon, possessing light touch, having correct ideas of form, and excellent taste in selection of color.
As pupils they follow direction well, and are usually free from faults of rudeness or improper language. Of the forty above Kindergarten, three are troublesome and are persistent cases. In general, it may be said that these children as a cla.s.s compare favorably with others in matters of progress and of conduct as well.
LIZZIE A. MCKENZIE, _Princ.i.p.al_.
