Elementary School Buildings, Parish of St. Jolin, Stockholm.
The Public Elementary Schools in Sweden are in the first place a
matter devolving on the parish (kyrkoförsamling). But they have
considerable grants in aid from the State, and they are subject to the inspection of
the authorities of State and Church. Every parish (församling)
constitutes as a rule a school district, the legislatory authority of which is
vested in the Vestry Meeting (kyrkostämman).1 The executive is the
School Board (skolråd), consisting of the rector of the parish in the
capacity of President and at least four other members (men or women)
elected by the Yestry Meeting. One of the teachers, male or female,
in the district schools has the right to be present at the deliberations
of the Board, but without a vote. The President of the Board shall
summon the staff of teachers to deliberation with regard to the school
business of the district at least once a year.
