The attendance has been 36, 29, 39, 34, for the several terms, the average for the year being 82 per cent - a gain of 8 per cent over the year previous.


LYNDE-STREET PRIMARY.


M. E. PUTNAM, Teacher.


This school contains older scholars than some of the primary schools, the average age of the pupils being over 8 years, that of the Vinton-Street Primary being 6.8. As a consequence, greater pro- gress has been made in some studies than we find in other schools of our town of the same grade.


The Committee were fortunate in securing the services of a teacher of long experience to take the place of Miss Perry, who resigned at the close of the third term, and the school has suffered no injury from the change.


The average number of pupils, for the year, has been 59, the per- centage of attendance being 72.


UPHAM-STREET SCHOOL.


CHRISTIANA UPHAM, Teacher.


A great lack of thoroughness is apparent in the recitations of this school. The alleged irregular attendance does not seem sufficient to account for the various defects noticed. A teacher is needed who


37


REPORT OF THE SCHOOL COMMITTEE.


can overcome the obstacles under which the school undoubtedly labors, and inspire the scholars with the desire to excel.


The attendance has been 52, 45, 53, and 48, the average number present being 36, or 72 per cent.


HIGHLAND SCHOOL.


KATE E. COLBURN, Teacher.


This school, embracing scholars of very different ages, has some of the same difficulties to contend against as the one previous named, yet it has no superior for thoroughness in our whole list of schools. Complaint has been made that the latter quality is carried to excess ; but we think less future evil will result from this error, if such exists, than from teaching of an opposite character.


The attendance has been 38, 44, 33, and 43, for the several terms, the percentage of attendance being 86- a gain of 5 per cent above last year.


VINTON-STREET INTERMEDIATE.


JENNIE L. CRIE, Teacher.


So far as the public examinations were concerned, the friends of this school have witnessed a decided improvement over that of last year. Although suffering one term from the absence of the regular teacher, in consequence of sickness, commendable progress has been made in all the studies, and the school promises to take its proper place in the grammar department.


Henceforth it will be known as a grammar school, and parents ' residing in the vicinity will have no inducement to send their children the long distance hitherto thought necessary. The studies will be the same as in the Lynde and Green-street schools, and pupils will be qualified to graduate for the High School.


Attendance 50, 46, 46, 47, for the several terms, the average being 84 per cent.


GREEN-STREET GRAMMAR.


Miss A. R. Poor, the former teacher of this school, resigned, for a more lucrative position, near the close of the last term, and the annual examination was, consequently, less brilliant than the one a


38


REPORT OF THE SCHOOL COMMITTEE.


year ago. While the Committee regret the loss of so faithful and competent a teacher, they believe her successor will be able to sus- tain the high position this school has hitherto held.


Attendance 47, 47, 44, and 37, -a gain of 10 per cent over last year. The average attendance has been 86 per cent.


LYNDE-STREET GRAMMAR.


PHIEBE A. NORRIS, Teacher.


The Committee can say of this school as was said in the last report, that "the labor has been well and satisfactorily performed." No school in our town manifests more of that influence which a pleasant, earnest, and faithful teacher exerts upon her pupils. The disposition of a teacher is reflected in the faces of her scholars, and no visitor can enter this school without being assured that the guiding power is kindness, and the result a silent witness to the efficiency of love between teacher and scholar.


The attendance has been 45, 42, 41, and 42, for the several terms. Average attendance 89 per cent.


THE HIGH SCHOOL.


MR. EDWARD PARKER, Jun., Principal. MISS ZOE A. NOYES, Assistant.


Under the same instructors as last year, this school has continued to progress in the various studies taught. Thoroughness is the motto, and the results bear evidence of the faithful labors of the teachers. The Principal complains that the requirements for admis- sion have not been sufficiently defined, so as to give him classes capable of working together, and qualified to do justice to the system he would like to adopt.


In past years, there has been a necessity of filling this school, to relieve the grammar departments. This necessity may have oper- ated against the full measure of its usefulness. By the statement appended, it will be seen the attendance is much larger than last year. If the school maintains its position, it will be impossible to admit, hereafter, many more than the number graduating.


39


REPORT OF THE SCHOOL COMMITTEE.


The usefulness of the school will be enhanced, the coming year, by the aid of apparatus needed to illustrate the studies taught. Al- though but a small beginning, the list of articles can be increased from time to time, as suitable accommodations are provided, until this school, at least, has apparatus necessary for its proper ad- vancement.


The attendance for the several terms has been 70, 60, 59, and 51, or an average of 60, being a gain of 36 per cent over the attendance of last year. The average number present has been 87 per cent of the whole .*

Respectfully submitted,


E. O. PHINNEY, LUTHER ROBINSON, Committee. School


C. H. ISBURGH,


* The true percentage is 912. According to the method required by the State registers, a school of 60 scholars, having four enter near the close of the term, has an average attendance of only 95 per cent, although no absences have occurred during the term. The transfer of scholars from one school to another, has the effect of reducing the attendance of both schools.


The school registers have not been properly kept, in many instances. The absences are not recorded, and it is impossible to tell if the results given are correct. The number of days of the last term, for instance, vary from 61 to 78, making quite a difference in the average attendance.
