With but few exceptions the teachers in our schools the past year have not been wanting in age and experience.  They have entered into their work with energy and enthusiasm, consequently our schools are in a more prosperous condition than they were one year ago, especially some of the smaller Districts.

The schools in which there seems to be manifested the most interest at the present time, are No. 10 in North Fryeburg, No. 6 in East Fryeburg, No. 13 at the Toll Bridge, No. 8 in West Fryeburg, No. 15 at the Harbor, and No. 11 at the Centre.  In none of the other Districts has there been any serious trouble, or any great waste of time and money.

During the past year District No. 11 has erected a pleasant school house.  With the exception of Districts Nos. 15, 12 and 7, our school houses are in a very good condition.

The Teachers, whom I would recommend as the best qualified to govern and instruct youth, are Miss Knight, Miss Farrington, Miss Baker, Miss Flint, Mrs. Carlton, Mrs. Pike, Mr. Powers, Mr. Hazen, Mr. Hutchins and Mr. Austin.  There are others, who are equally as good instructors but failed to have as good order.

Miss Warren, Miss Hobs and Miss Peary have been profitable teachers.

Respectfully submitted, 
N. O. McIntire, Supervisor
