Handwritten Petition--Patrons of the Middleburg school and surrounding community petition the School Board to retain Miss Virginia Morton and Miss Rosa Carter as teachers for the next school year. The petition notes that both educators have maintained strong discipline and educational progress over the past five to six years and that the school has received recognition from both Black and white community members. The children are described as devoted to the teachers, and patrons express that the school’s stability and success are due in large part to their leadership. The letter “earnestly” requests that these teachers be reassigned to the same positions.
