The beginners' department is under the superintendency of Mrs. Thomas E. D. Bradley, Mrs. Fred Simmons and Miss Beatrice Barker, and the primary department superintendents are Mrs. Ralph H. Rice and Miss Hilda Phelps. In the main school Mr. Herbert Weld has a class of boys which sometimes numbers 22. Mrs. John Kleft has the girls and Mrs. Nellie carpenter and Mrs. Emma Lloyd the young ladies of high school age. Both of these classes are under admirable instruction.
