Twenty=seventh Annual Report of the
School Committee.
The School Committee have the honor to present the twenty-seventh annual report.
The report of the Superintendent has been adopted as a part of this report and is hereto appended.
The union of Merrimac and North Andover for the employ- ment of a superintendent of schools was dissolved in August by vote of both towns. The amount of money appropriated last March by Merrimac for the support of schools was not sufficient to enable us to continue the union, and thus we lose the aid which we have before received from the state, namely, the sum of six hundred and twenty-five dollars. The law requires all towns to employ a superintendent, however. Mr. C. W. Cutts, the principal of our high school, was elected to that office for the present year at a salary of two hundred dollars.
That he might have time to attend to the duties of super- intendent, it was decided to have one session daily for the high school. Mr. Cutts has filled his new position admirably, and without impairing his efficiency as principal.
But this arrangement cannot be continued in accordance with law, for it is required that hereafter our town shall
IO
SCHOOL REPORT.
form a union with one or more towns for the employment of a superintendent. If the town is to receive aid from the state under the law, it must appropriate for the support of schools an amount of money "equal to the average of the total amount paid, or to the amount paid for each child" "during the three years then last preceding," and an addi- tional amount depending upon the proportion of the time of the superintendent which the town receives. If it receives one-half of his time, the additional amount would be three hundred and seventy-five dollars.
The law requiring such a union seems to be mandatory, and we recommend that an appropriation be made sufficient to enable the town to receive the aid offered by the state.
Last March the two schools at Merrimacport were con- solidated because of the decreased appropriation for our de- partment. It was unfortunate for teachers and pupils of these schools, that this change should be made before the beginning of a new school year at least ; but it was thought necessary to make the change as soon as possible.
At the same time and for the same reason all the schools were deprived of the excellent instruction of Mrs. Robinson as director of music. We believe that the town cannot afford to dispense with the teacher of music, and earnestly hope that the schools will soon be again under her instruction.
" The value of music in the schools can scarcely be overstated. It is needless to amplify this value, so well recognized is it in the provisions generally made for musical instruction." Such is the strong statement made by one of our leading educators in a late report of the Massachu- setts Board of Education. Surely it is needless for your committee to "amplify" in the presence of the above quoted authoritative statement.
II
SCHOOL REPORT.
The scholars in the Highland district have been conveyed to the Centre schools during the year. The Birch Meadow school has been continued, the town not having voted to ap- propriate money for conveyance of the pupils. Good teachers have been employed in this school, and as good progress made as can be reasonably expected in a school so ungraded, and located so far from the Central schools.
In regard to the consolidation of schools by conveyance of pupils from the small outlying districts to the graded schools, we can only repeat what has so often been stated in these reports by school committees and superintendents, that it is regarded by the highest educational authorities as being. for the best interests of the scholars conveyed, best for the schools, and best for the town to so consolidate the schools.
We have kept the expenses within the limits of the appropriations and receipts ; but it must be remembered that to do this we have closed one school, dispensed with the teacher of music ; shortened the school year of all the schools, and must rely upon the next appropriation for the purchase of most of the fuel needed for the rest of the season.
We recommend that the town appropriate for the coming year the sum of $9, 100.00 for a superintendent, conveyance of pupils, and general school purposes. This is the mini- mum amount we believe which the town should appropriate in order to enable the committee to employ a district super- intendent and receive aid from the state.

SCHOOL REPORT.
REPORT OF SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS.
To the School Committee :
I have the honor of submitting the following report on the condition of the schools of Merrimac : -
As my term of service as superintendent has covered only that part of the year since the schools began in Sep- tember, I shall make no attempt to report upon the work done before that time. It will be only justice, however, to say that the credit for the present excellent condition of the schools is due entirely to the efforts of those who have had charge of the schools in the past, and a large part of this credit is due to my predecessor, Mr. Chickering, for the very efficient work done by him during the last school year.
Since entering upon the duties of superintendent in Sep- tember, I have devoted much of the limited time at my disposal for supervision to the effort to gain as accurate knowledge as possible of the conditions prevailing in the schools, of the efficiency of the teachers, and of the needs of the pupils. My observations have been of interest to myself, and I hope to make the knowledge gained of some value to the schools.
When the schools opened in September, few changes had been made in the teaching force. Miss Smith at the Port and Miss Spofford at Birch Meadow had succeeded respectively
IS
SCHOOL REPORT.
Miss Blaisdell (now Mrs. Tibbetts) and Miss Hainsworth, and in the High School Miss Woodward succeeded to the work of Miss Newhall. So nearly all the teachers entered upon the work of the year thoroughly familiar with the con- ditions to be met. As a result of this fact, the work was promptly begun and efficiently carried forward from the very beginning.
COURSE OF STUDY.
The teachers have been allowed considerable freedom in following the course of study as outlined for them by my pre- decessor, Mr. Chickering, and others; but they have been exceedingly faithful in the matter. .
To this time no essential changes have been made either in the outline of the work or in the methods of instruction. I have deemed it better not to disturb the conditions that had yielded such excellent results in the past, at least not until I felt sure something better could be substituted. Nor have my observations led me to think that any radical changes are necessary.
The course of study now being pursued is giving fairly satisfactory results, yet I hope to see it strengthened in several particulars, especially in what may be called the fundamental subjects.
The tendency has been to introduce into all the grades of our school system a great variety of subjects. The tendency was prompted by a worthy purpose, namely, to make the course more flexible and more responsive to the many varied natures to be dealt with. While the results, in the main, have been satisfactory, care must be exercised lest the multi- tude of subjects lead to confusion in the child's mind, and consequent weakness in subjects that are fundamental.
19
SCHOOL REPORT.
I would not eliminate a single subject from our course, but would so adapt the work if possible, and modify methods if necessary that a larger percentage of our pupils shall attain to a greater degree of thoroughness and proficiency. Only work that is thoroughly done has educational value. It does not matter so much upon what subject the work is done ; yet in the interest of later work, and for the sake of greater pro- ficiency at an early age for life's work, I would place especial emphasis upon Language including Reading, Arithmetic, and History. I am glad to say that the work being done in these lines in our schools is good, probably much better than is being done in most towns. I believe, however, that it can be strengthened somewhat in Arithmetic and History, especially the former.
At present there is in use a variety of text-books on Arithmetic. I am of the opinion that better results would be obtained if, in the lower grades, one author should be fol- lowed, thus insuring a greater uniformity of method. I would therefore recommend that the various texts now in use" be replaced in accordance with this suggestion.
The work in History may be strengthened by properly correlating it with geography in the upper grades, and by a freer use of development maps.
TEXT-BOOKS.
No changes have been made in any of the text-books since the beginning of the school year. In June the old geographies used in the grammar grades were exchanged for new editions ; so new books on this subject were placed in the hands of the scholars last September. Some of the books are in very poor condition, and provision should be made to replace them with new books as soon as possible. An old, wornout book has a demoralizing effect upon the student.

SCHOOL REPORT.
ATTENDANCE.
There are in town according to the school census taken in September 366 children between the ages of five and fifteen, and 249 between the ages of seven and fourteen, -the com- pulsory school age. The whole number enrolled in the schools in September was 409; the average attendance for the fall term was 371.96, the percentage of attendace for the same time was 93.49 per cent.
Under the favorable conditions that exist in our town, the percentage of attendance is too low. Nothing is more detri- mental to the advancement of the child, or to the general work of the school, than irregular attendance. Parents should see to it that their children are regular and prompt in attend- ance, and should keep them from school only in cases. of absolute necessity.
HIGH SCHOOL.
The work of the High School has been on the whole satisfactory. The average progress has been good. The work of some individual scholars has been exceptionally good. If the work of others has fallen below the average, it is not because of lack of natural ability. Our scholars are bright. The cause for failure is to be found generally in the interests and diversions that are allowed to take precedence to school work. I referred to this matter somewhat plainly in my report a year ago. I am glad to note some improvement, but still greater improvement must be made before we can accomplish the best possible results. I believe, however, that in this particular, we are more fortunate than most schools. The majority of our scholars are in earnest and are anxious to do good work. This spirit, I believe, is stronger in the school now than ever before.
-
2 I
SCHOOL REPORT.
The attendance during the the present year is somewhat smaller than for the two preceding years, for the reason that a much smaller class than usual entered the High School in September. The percentage of attendance, however, has been better.
The change to one session, which was made at the begin- ning of the present school year, undoubtedly works some in- convenience in the home, but I am satisfied that it has tended to improve the work of the school. It is true that some will misuse the opportunity that they have to study in the after- noon, but those that so do, cannot be depended on to make good use of any opportunity for home work. Those that wish to do good work will find better opportunity for so doing with the present arrangement, than formerly.
Some changes have been made in the course of study. The course in history has been modified so to better meet our needs. Civil government has been put one year later and might profitably be put still later, if arrangements for it can be made. Greek is to be dropped from the college prepara- tory course, and two years of German substituted for it, while the French course will be lengthened to three years.
This change in the languages seemed to be demanded, and there is prospect that good results will follow. The three years' course seems to meet a certain demand, and perhaps should be continued, though there are serious objections to so doing. I believe every child, who has ability to do high school work, should do at least four years of such work. It may be advisable to make our three years' course more dis- tinctively a business course. In any event, I would suggest that Commercial Law be introduced in our courses, as I deem it a most important branch of study. This cannot be 'done without rejecting something that we now have, As Geology
22
SCHOOL REPORT.
and Physical Geography present considerable repetition, I would suggest that the Geology be dropped and Commercial Law be given the time heretofore given to that subject. I submit herewith an outline of the courses as now modified, and, if it meets your approval, I recommend that it be published.
I wish to repeat my recommendation of a year ago, that · desks be put into the recitation rooms as soon as it can be conveniently done. This, I believe, would be in the interest of comfort and good order, and consequently would increase the efficiency of the school. There are other needs more or less urgent, one of the most important of which is that of making some substantial addition to our reference library. /
During the year, something has been done in the way of ornamentation. I wish to acknowledge the following gifts, and, in behalf of the teachers and scholars, I wish to thank the donors : picture from Mr. T. H. Hoyt, statuary from the class of 1902, picture from the Alumni Association. It is hoped that something will be done in this line each year. The work of the school is now in good condition. We have demonstrated that we can prepare students to meet the exacting requirements of the Massachusetts Colleges, and of the Institute of Technology. I consider this a very creditable showing.
The chief work of our High School, however, is not to prepare students for college, but rather to give as good a pre- paration as possible for life. Yet it is to be counted as a dis- tinct gain to the individual, and to the community, whenever an ambition is aroused to pursue a course in a higher institu- institution of learning after graduation from the High School. I am glad to say that many of our students are doing their work in the High School with this end in view.
23
SCHOOL REPORT.
I would again urge the parents to visit our school more frequently.
DRAWING AND MUSIC.
A special report of the work done in drawing will be made as usual by the supervisor of drawing, Miss Rose. I exceedingly regret, as I think others interested in our schools do, that it was necessary, for reasons of economy, to discon- tinue special instruction in music. Mrs. Robinson, who had been the supervisor of music for two years, is an excellent teacher, and was doing very efficient, and, I believe, very important work. I would earnestly recommend that provision be niade to restore this work to our schools.
SUPERVISION.
Because the town failed to appropriate a sum of money for the support of the schools sufficient to entitle it to state aid for supervision, the present arrangement, whereby the princi- pal of the High School is acting as superintendent, was en- tered into for the year. There are doubtless objections to this arrangement, one of which is that it may not seem to be in full accord with the law relating to supervision. It may not be advisable therefore to continne the arrangement. Hence I would recommend that the town be urged to make an appro- priation sufficient to entitle it to state aid, that the law relating to supervision may be fully observed.
TEACIIERS.
The vital factor of the school is the teacher. Improved equipment and up-to-date apparatus make it possible to do more satisfactory work; but the success or failure of the school does not depend upon the kind or quality of the furni- ture or supplies or text-books or even the course of study.
24
SCHOOL REPORT.
The elements of success or failure reside in the teacher. The thoroughly equipped enthusiastic, and well-poised teacher will succeed under almost any conditions. Hence the most im- ·portant duty of the school authorities is the selection of teach- ers. No pains, or expense, within reasonable limits, should be spared to secure good teachers. There is no economy in hiring poor teachers at any price.
