Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Board of Education: Of the State of Connecticut to the Governor; Together With the Report of the Secretary of the Board In the report of 1897 it was suggested that towns whose grand list was $500,000 or less should receive from the State a grant to pay the tuition fees of high school scholars. The General Assembly of 1897 passed an Act which runs as follows: Section 1. Any town in which a high school is not maintained shall pay the whole or any part of the tuition fee of any child who resides with his parents or guardian in said town, and who, with the written consent of the school visitors or town school committee, attends a high school in another town, provided that the high school shall be approved try the State Board of Education. Such tuition fees shall be paid annually by the town treasurer upon the order of the chairman of the board of school visitors or town school committee. Sec. 2. Every town, the grand list of which does not exceed nine hundred thousand dollars, shall annually, in July, receive from the treasurer of the state an amount equal to two-thirds of the aggregate of the sums which have been actually paid by the town for tuition fees under the provisions of Section 1; provided, that not more than thirty dollars shall be paid for each scholar attending from any town. See. 3. The number and names of the children so attending high schools in towns other than those in which they reside, and the high schools which they have attended, shall on or before the first day of July in each year, be certified under oath by the acting school visitor of the town in which the pupils reside to the State Board of Education. The comptroller shall, on application of said Board, draw an order on the treasurer in favor of the town for the amount provided in Section 2 of this act.
