_The X School_: Twenty-one of the classrooms are used for the desired academic instruction in the regular school subjects,—arithmetic, language, reading, history, and geography. The five remaining classrooms are used for the special school subjects,—science, drawing, and music. In addition to the twenty-six classrooms, the school has a manual-training shop, a domestic-science laboratory, a small auditorium, five cellar playrooms, and a kindergarten. Because the special rooms are not yet equipped (January 9, 1915), for the time being they are used for additional regular class work. Since there is no library or librarian, and since the manual-training and cooking teachers are at the building only half-time, two extra special teachers are in charge of the playground. The X School has the following activities and facilities for carrying them on:— Type of work Facilities used by each type of work Academic instruction 21 classrooms. General exercises Auditorium. Play and physical Playground, playrooms, training pool, gymnasium. Special work 2 manual-training shops, 2 science laboratories, 2 drawing studios, 1 music studio, 1 public-library branch. The twenty-one classes are divided into three divisions of seven classes each, as follows:— Division 1—seven classes, grades 6, 7, 8. Division 2—seven classes, grades 3, 4, 5. Division 3—seven classes, grades 1 and 2. All these twenty-one classes, from the first grade to the eighth, take part in these activities according to the following program:— ────────────┬───────────────┬─────────┬────────┬───────── School │ Academic │ General │ Play, │ Special hours │ instruction │exercises│ etc. │ ────────────┼───────────────┼─────────┼────────┼───────── 8.30- 9.20│Arithmetic, all│ │ │ │divisions │ │ │ 9.20-10.10│Language, all │ │ │ │divisions │ │ │ 10.10-11.00│ │ Div. 1. │Div. 3. │ Div. 2. 11.00-12.00│Entire X school│ │ │ │at luncheon │ │ │ 12.00- 1.00│Reading, all │ │ │ │divisions │ │ │ 1.00- 1.50│History, │ │ │ │geography, all │ │ │ │divisions │ │ │ 1.50- 2.40│ │ Div. 3. │Div. 2. │ Div. 1. 2.40- 3.30│ │ Div. 2. │Div. 3. │ Div. 1. 3.30- 4.30│ │ │Div. 1. │ ────────────┴───────────────┴─────────┴────────┴─────────
