Letter from Alfred E. Stearns to Mr. Ralph T. Waltz, December 4, 1909
Typed letter sent from Alfred E. Stearns to Ralph T. Waltz. States Zia thinks he has all the subjects pursued by the freshman class. Explains Zia does not have botany or agriculture, which is required in fall term, but Zia's catalogue states those courses begin in winter term. Asks Waltz to clarify. Requests latest catalogue for files and for Phillips Academy to be added to mailing list.
March 3, 1908 Mr.John Morrison Boston, Mass. Dear Sir: I am sorry to have to advise that your boy’s work thus far this term has been far from satisfactory to the school authorities, and that as a result we have deemed it necessary to withdraw from him for the present the privilege of out-of-town and evening excuses, which we are accustomed to grant with some freedom to boys whose work and standing are satisfactory. We trust that this step may prove to be all that is necessary to bring about the improvement we desire, and that our next reports to you may be of a much more favorable nature. Very truly yours.
