An unrecorded pamphlet detailing the educational opportunities at the Seminole Public School in Seminole, Oklahoma just a few years after Oklahoma statehood.  The work prints some opening remarks from various school officials, including the President of the Board of Education, W.S. Livingston and the Superintedent, L.L. Sturgeon, along with a Treasurer's Report.  This is followed by the main thrust of the work - the rules and regulations, courses of study beginning in first grade and continuing through high school, a list of textbooks "adopted for the high school," curriculum plans by class, and information on the school's library, athletics, music, and "Literary Work" (including a literary society for eighth graders).  The text is illustrated throughout with photographs of school officials, teachers, the library, the girls' basketball team, and the boys' baseball team.  We could find no record of this work in OCLC or auction history.

Price: $450
