In 1931-1932, Loudoun County teachers were instructed to submit registers of all one and two-room schools to the superintendent's office at the end of the school year, while all other registers were to remain at the schoolhouse. The rules and regulations for school ages were strict - only children who turned six on or before November 1 were allowed to attend school, with exceptions made for those who met certain mental and physical standards. Teachers were expected to strictly follow rules for dropping pupils from the roll for excessive absences. School hours were set from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., with specified recess times. The approval of the division superintendent was required before students could participate in interscholastic games. Additionally, the authority and discipline of principals over school children were outlined, emphasizing their responsibility for maintaining order in the school environment.
