Transcription Notes:
---------- Reopened for Editing 2023-11-21 14:03:38 Not complete until table filled in and answers to questions are transcribed. Under number of pupils enrolled Male - Sherman looks like 36 and Boston looks like 35 but when the column is added up (288) I think the numbers are 00 and 15.
