TVie NYSSA TME NYSSA GATE CITY JOURNAL. NYSSA. OREGON. THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER ». 1931 VOLUME XXXXVI NO. 34 Attendance In Nyssa Schools Shows Decrease Drop Under Last Year 65 ; Enrollment O f 1072 To Increase Enrollment of students in the Nyssa schools this week showed a drop in attendance of 65 Wednesday, the second day of school, under tne figure o f the 1950-51 school year, according to Superintendent Henry Hartley. Attendance in the first six grades showed a drop of 57 and in the high school a drop of 16, but the junior high school showed an increase of 8. making a net decrease of 65 under the second day attendance last year. School officials expect the total en rollment of 1072 to increase during the next two weeks. The loss in school population is believed to be due to the movement of people from the interior to the coastal areas, principally because of the greater number of available defense jobs. Some local business men doubt that Nyssa is losing more population than it is gaining through movement from one locality to an other. School attendance Wednesday by grades was as follows: First, 110; second, 102; third, 109; fourth, 104; fifth, 98; sixth, 86 or a total of 609; seventh, 91 and eighth 92. or total of 183; and ninth 80, tenth, 74; eleventh, 82, and twelfth, 44, or a total of 280. Total second-day enrollment in 1948-49 was 1154, in 1949-50, 1184; and 1950-51, 1137.
