The study includes the analysis of documents of Kola District School Department, which are kept in the State Archives of Murmansk Region (fund I-133) and of the documents of Kem†-Kola District School Department, which are kept at the National Archive of the Republic of Karelia (fund 419). These documents include teachers’ reports on the progress of studies, letter exchange between the School Board and village administrators regarding the organisation of schools, supply of books to schools, lists of learning aids for teaching in parochial elementary schools, annual reports on the progress of students, as well as reports of inspectors and supervisors on the work of parochial schools.
