neighborhoods, and hence, although it has competent teachers
in the male and female departments, and a separate primary
department, the attendance has always been slender,
and will be until the school is removed to a neighborhood
where children may be sent without danger to their morals.

c. School No. 3, for colored children, in Yorkville, is
an old building, is well attended, and deserves, in connection
with Schoolhouse No. 4, in Harlem, a new building midway
between the present localities.

d. Schoolhouse No. 5, for colored children, is an old
building, leased at No. 19 Thomas street, a most degraded
neighborhood, full of filth and vice; yet the attendance on
this school, and the excellence of its teachers, earn for it the
need of a new site and new building.

e. Schoolhouse No. 6, for colored children, is in Broadway,
near 37th street, in a dwelling house leased and fitted
up for a school, in which there is always four feet of water
in the cellar. The attendance good. Some of the school
officers have repeatedly promised a new building.

f. Primary school for colored children, No. 1, is in the
basement of a church on 15th street, near 7th avenue,
in a good location, but premises too small for the attendance;
no recitation rooms, and is perforce both primary
and grammar school, to the injury of the progress of all.
