Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Reports of the Department of the Interior for the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 1906: Governor of Hawaii; Board of Indian Commissioners Among the most important problems in Hawaii is that of educa tion, and the article contributed by Mr. Babbitt, superintendent of public instruction, is of special importance. It indicates two pressing needs of the public schools, namely, increased accommodations for pupils and better pay for teachers. At the end of the fiscal year there was an attendance of more than in the public schools and of more than in the private schools (including the kindergartens). Notwithstanding the great relief afforded by the private schools to the situation, there is still much congestion in the crowded districts, and there are frequent calls for schools in the newer settlements not yet supplied with accommodations. From data furnished by the educational department not included in the superintendent's article, the following table, relating to public school accommodations, is com piled. Number of schools does not refer to buildings, for many schools have groups of structures, and in many country sections there are detached cottages for teachers. The values given cover all buildings in each case. Lahainaluna, on Maui, is the leading school in the Territory which affords industrial as well as ordinary educa tion, other than the reformatory institutions for girls and boys on Oahu, and its grou includes printing, carpenter, and blacksmith sho s, besides cow 8 ed and barn.
