The legislature has appropriated
funds for the carrying on of Citi
zenship Night Schools within the
f Territory. No doubt use will be made
of this appropriation as in the past
by teachers and board members. It
is a worthwhile project; that
it should receive attention of all
engaged in the school work of Al
aska. It is the means of perform
ing extra service in your communi
ty and adding those seeking to be
come citizens of the United States.
Thru these schools they receive a
training of immense value to them
In their efforts to become worth
while citizens.
Such a school may be organized
when 12 pupils (adults or minors
l over 16 years of age) have been en
rolled. The school shall be con
ducted for not less than two or
more than five nights a week for
not more than 24 weeks. Instruct
ors receive a compensation not to
exceed $4 for each night s session
of at least two hours.
Enrollment figures for the past
two years show a gradual decrease
4 in the number of pupils attending
these schools. Two hundred and
five were enrolled for the j eui
1927-28 and 188 for the year 1928
29. Last year Citizenship schools
were held in the following com
munities: Anchorage, Blackburn,
Cordova, Juneau (two schools) La
touche and Petersburg.
