Troy Graded and High School. 10 
The fourteenth year of the Troy Graded and High School has been most satisfactory to the officers and patrons. The high standard of scholarship which has characterized it in the past has been maintained, and the number of pupils who have pursued their studies successfully, is even larger than in former years. The number of non-resident pupils has been large, thus giving increased evidence of the popularity of the school and showing that its advantages are appreciated by those who desire good opportunities for education. With increasing facilities for instruction there is a growing interest upon the part of the students and a commendable zeal to do thorough and efficient work. 

The school is well supplied with necessary apparatus, charts and reference works, which are accessible to all pupils, and they are encouraged to make use of them in the pursuit of their studies. They are taught how to study and are urged to be self-reliant, while they are at the same time thoroughly drilled in the several branches of the course. Non-resident pupils will find in the future, as in the past, a hearty welcome to our school and great pains will be taken to give them all the advantages they desire. 

Location.
Troy has many things in its favor for convenient school privileges. It is easily reached by the Northern Central Railway from both north and south, and has good stage communications with the surrounding villages on the east and on the west. The character of its business men for thrift, energy and integrity, has long made it the center of trade for a rich section of the country. Students are welcomed by the inhabitants and many young men have found opportunities to engage in lucrative business through their school experience here. The Churches of all denominations are well sustained and the best of society is open to all who will avail themselves of it. Board can be had from $2.50 to $3.50 per week and many pupils make their expenses much less than these prices by renting rooms and boarding themselves. 

Patrons of the school are cordially invited to visit it frequently and observe the progress of the pupils. They should urge upon them the necessity of spending their evenings in study and assist the teachers in securing faithful work. The school is under the supervision of the board of education, who take pride in making it all that can be desired for its grade, and a credit to the town. To this end they make frequent visits during term time, and conduct the examinations personally in a manner to secure thorough scholarship. 

Troy Graded and High School. 11 
Course of Instruction.
The course of study is designed primarily, to give thorough drill in all the branches of an English education. The higher studies embrace what is most practical and desirable for all who are preparing for any of the professions or business and lead to the popular courses in the best colleges. Students often pursue these studies successfully as far as they are of practical use. The effort is especially made to supply the people of this locality with such advantages as they most need, and the school fills the want of this facility as no other can do. Students are assisted whenever aid is necessary and are taught how to help themselves. Instructions in music will be furnished on reasonable terms when desired.
Laboratories.
Good appliances for assisting the students in Natural Philosophy and in Chemistry are always at hand. Pupils have constant practice in the laboratory and often become experts in making experiments.
Library.
Our library is one of the best in the selection of books and furnishes free of cost the standard Histories, Biographies, Works of Literature, Reference Works, Maps and Charts for the use of the Pupils.
Surveying.
A class in Surveying will be formed of those pupils who wish it and the best instruments will be furnished by the Principal for use in field practice. A Gurley’s Engineer Transit, with attachments for leveling and measuring vertical angles can be used by the pupils in this branch. Careful instruction is also given in plotting surveys and making computations. 
Corps of Instructors.
By referring to the third page it will be seen that the corps of teachers who have conducted the school so successfully in the past is still retained. Their experience gives assurance that the reputation of the School will be maintained.
Graduates.
The success of our graduates is a matter for congratulation, and we point with pride to many who now hold honorable positions in teaching, in business and in the professions. Many of the schools in this vicinity give evidence of the superior merit of teachers who received their preparation for teaching here. The Graduates Association was organized in 1877 and now numbers sixty-nine members. Their annual reunions, both public and private have served to keep alive the pleasant associations formed in their schooldays. 
Preparation For Teaching.
Do you intend to teach? If so, where can you better prepare yourself than in a school where not only the science of teaching is taught, but where you may daily observe the work of a well organized school? We offer superior advantages to teachers both by a class organized for special instruction in that profession and by giving actual practice in the class room to all who may desire it. Our teachers’ class has been very successful for years past, and especial pains will be taken to give the efficiency to this department. The success of teachers from this school is assurance that we are prepared to do excellent work in this direction. 
Troy Graded and High School. 12 
Lectures.
The Professional men of the village often render valuable assistance by giving lectures to the students, and from time to time other able lectures will be secured.
Cabinet.
The School has a geological Cabinet of growing importance and value. We are grateful to all friends who will contribute to this Department and in any way assist in promoting its usefulness.
Debating Society.
The High School Debating Society provides a valuable aid to young men desirous of improving in this branch. Its meetings are often attended by gentlemen in town and a good interest is developed among the students.
Prizes.
The Mitchell Gold medal prize is given annually by B.B. Mitchell for excellence in spelling. The prize, a fine volume of poetry, in declamation, by Hon. Delos Rockwell. The prize in essays by Jessie Stuart, and in pronunciation, a Webster’s Unabridged Dictionary by the Principal. The prize scholars this year were Miss Mattie Herrick in spelling and pronunciation, Charles N. Green in declamation and Nettie Adams in recitation.
Sanitary.
The sanitary conditions of the building and grounds are excellent, and the general health of the town for years has been exceptionally good. There has been no epidemic during the last twenty years in the village, and the altitude, the pure air and general immunity from those fevers so common in river locations and less elevated localities, make it a place to which parents can safely send their children. Pure cold water has been introduced into the building and thus one of the most common sources of disease among children, from drinking impure water, has been avoided and general cleanliness secured.
