PUBLIC SCHOOLS OF PITTSBURGH 
Pittsburgh is very proud of its public school system, which 
is keeping pace with educational ideas, and is in charge of a 
fine board of education, with Dr. William M. Davidson as 
superintendent of public schools, supported by an excellent 
teaching staff. 
The total number of children enrolled last year was 
105,409 in the public day schools, and 17,876 in the evening 
schools, making a grand total of 123,285.

the State to apply on the salaries of teachers. The balance 
of the teachers’ salaries is paid through revenues derived 
from local taxation. 
To teach the students enrolled in the evening schools has 
required the services of 580 teachers. A part of the salaries

two hundred days, actual schooling, five days each week. 
The evening schools are kept open for a period of twenty-

school, under the age of sixteen. This means that of the
