Report of the Superintendent of Schools.


To the School Committee of Melrose :


LADIES AND GENTLEMEN :- I have the honor of submit- ting the following report of the schools for the year ending December 31, 1892, which is the third of the series of an- nual reports of the superintendent of schools of this town.


GENERAL REVIEW.


The school statistics, together with such other data as usually appear in the annual reports, are self-explanatory, and need, therefore, no further elaboration. I wish, in pass- ing, however, to call attention to the rapid growth of our school population, as shown by these statistics in the re- ports of the last three or four years, in explanation of the difficulties which are met with each year in providing an adequate teaching force, the necessary text-books, appar- atus and supplies, without exceeding the annual appro- priation.


A careful review of the work of the year assures us that reasonable progress has been made along the several lines of school work, and that the outlook for the future is prom- ising to a gratifying degree. The past year, although wit- nessing no wide departures from the conditions which obtained during the period covered by the last report, has been one of quiet growth and progress. The teachers have manifested a general desire to improve in methods of in- struction and discipline, and harmony and a spirit of free- dom from friction has been characteristic of their work.


188


SCHOOL REPORT.


It is with great pleasure that I allude to the attitude of our teachers as regards corporal punishment. The regula- tion of the board in relation thereto is as follows:


"Every case of corporal punishment, which should be re- sorted to only after mature deliberation in extreme cases of breach of discipline, must be reported at once, in writing, to the chairman of the committee. Said report shall state the name and age of the pupil, the nature of the offence and the amount of punishment."


There has been a growing determination on the part of the teachers to abide by the spirit as well as the strict letter of this regulation; and at the present time corporal punish- ment is resorted to so rarely that it has practically ceased to exist as a means of discipline in our schools.


COURSE OF STUDY.


The new courses of study, adopted in December, 1891, have been successfully introduced throughout the several grades. As was inevitable, a number of minor modifications and adaptations have been found necessary, and others will doubtless be suggested from time to time by the every-day experiences of the class-room. The new courses, however, are already performing their proper functions in unifying and systematizing the work of our schools.


The advantages which were sought in abridging the courses in arithmetic and geography are already apparent. More thorough teaching and systematic drill in the essentials of these two subjects have been secured, while valuable time has been gained for instruction in other branches of study which have come to be considered of at least equal im- portance.


The suggestions concerning nature study, together with the carefully prepared outlines of the various branches of natural science, contained in the last report, have stimulated


189


SCHOOL REPORT.


our teachers to earnest efforts in the conduct of this line of work, which have already been productive of excellent results.


Systematic instruction in temperance, physiology and hy- giene has been introduced in all of the grades, and a series of text-books upon this subject provided for the use of the teachers and pupils.


MUSIC AND DRAWING.


In September, 1891, the departments of music and draw- ing were placed under new directors; Mr. Grant Drake suc- ceeding Mr. Harry Benson as special teacher of music, and Mr. Willis S. Carter succeeding Miss Elizabeth Creveling in the department of drawing.


When the last report was submitted to your board no attempt was made to review the work of these two depart- ments, as but four months had then elapsed since the ap- pointment of these teachers. At the present time, however, a word may be fittingly said in recognition of their faithful and painstaking labors in their respective departments.


The work in music has been in every way worthy of coin- mendation. With the advent of Mr. Drake the "Tonic-Sol- Fa" system was superseded by the staff notation, and the books of the Normal Music Series placed in the hands of the pupils. These radical changes in the system of instruc- tion, coupled with the skill and enthusiasm with which Mr. Drake has prosecuted his work, have aroused in both pupils and teachers an interest in and liking for this study which have already produced excellent results and which give promise of continued progress in the future.


In drawing, also, results of a like degree of excellence have been attained, and the work of the year has amply jus- tified the somewhat hasty judgment expressed in the last report concerning the outlook in this department.


190


SCHOOL REPORT.


Mr. Carter has brought to his work those qualities of skill and persistent effort which insure the largest measure of success.


The exhibition of drawing which was held in the Town Hall in the spring of 1891 was a revelation to the citizens of the town concerning the character and scope of this import- ant branch of school work, and the results which were there discernable reflected great credit upon Miss Creveling, then the special teacher of drawing, as well as upon the regular teachers who had conducted the work under her direction. Since that time the work has progressed to an extent that can only be appreciated by the teachers, who have contin- ued the instruction under her successor, Mr. Carter; and in order that the citizens of the town may have another oppor- tunity to judge of the results which are now being obtained in this study, it is suggested that a similar exhibition be held in the Town Hall, some time before the close of the present school year.


In concluding this brief acknowledgement of the efficien- cy of the special teachers in music and drawing, allow me to call your attention to their special reports, to be found in the apendix, for further information concerning the details of their work.


SEWING.


The attention of the board has been frequently called to the desirability of adding sewing to the regular school cur- riculum. This has been difficult of accomplishment during the period of transition through which our schools have been passing. Late in the year, however, an opportunity was af- forded of trying the experiment, in a small way, with the third and fourth grades at the Center school.


Miss Atwood, teacher of the third grade, asked for, and was immediately granted, permission to begin the work


191


SCHOOL REPORT.


with the girls of these two grades. She was given full charge of the work, two hours in each week being set apart for it, and although the time has been brief, much interest has been aroused among her pupils, while from the parents many words of praise and commendation have been re- ceived.


At my request Miss Atwood has prepared a brief report concerning the details of the work, which will be formed with the other special reports in the apendix.


It is a matter of congratulation that this step has been taken in the direction of the introduction of manual train- ing, and it is to be hoped that uninterrupted progress will be made until our schools shall afford the fullest opportuni- ties for manual training to all who desire such instruction.


TEXT-BOOKS.


The introduction of the revised courses of study has de- manded several changes in text-books. These changes have been made as follows:


In music, the "Introductory Third Reader" has been placed in the eighth grade, and additional books of the same series provided for the lower grades.


In Arithmetic, Coggeswell's "Elements of Number" has been authorized by the board for use in the primary grades, but as the condition of the text-book fund did not warrant their purchase last year, the introduction of this book has been deferred until the first of the new year.


In geography, the Butler's Series was displaced by the "Warren's Brief Course," to the general satisfaction of the teachers.


As has already been stated, the entire series of Blaisdell's Physiologies, especially designed for the work in tempe- rance, physiology and hygiene, has been provided in addi-


192


SCHOOL REPORT.


tion to the Steele's Physiology previously used in the eighth grade.


The revised courses of study for the high school have called for no important changes in text-books. The intro- duction of German has required only a slight expenditure for books and material, and no changes have been made in other departments excepting in physics, in which Gage's Introduction to Physical Science was substituted for Chute's Physics, which had been previously used.


Before leaving this subject I desire to call attention to some of the urgent needs of the schools in the way of addi- tional text-books and supplementary material. It will be remembered that the new course in United States history calls for preparatory historical reading from the second to the sixth grades inclusive, while in the seventh grade formal study and recitations should begin. Although these are the requirements of the course, the schools are absolutely desti- tute of material for this work except in the eighth grade, in which both Montgomery's and Barnes' histories "are pro- vided.


I would urge upon your board, therefore, the 'importance of providing, as soon as possible, supplementary historical reading for the lower grades and an elementary text-book in history for the seventh grade. Other supplementary reading material is needed in all of the schools, especially in the line of nature studies for the lower grades and the standard works of American authors for the higher.


A text-book in physical geography is also needed for the proper consideration of that study in the seventh grade.


It is, of course, impossible to supply all of these needs at once, but something can and should be done each year until all of our schools are properly equipped.


193


SCHOOL REPORT.


CHANGES IN TEACHERS.


During the year the following changes in and additions to the corps of teachers have been made.


HIGH SCHOOL.


Early in the year Miss George was transferred from the fifth grade to succeed Miss Swett, who was appointed prin- cipal of the Grove street school. In September, Miss Mansfield resumed her duties after a year's leave of ab- sence, during which time her place was filled by Mr. O. B. Roberts, Jr.


During the summer vacation the board, having decided to provide a sub-master for the school, clected to that posi- tion Mr. F. H. Small, a graduate of the school and of Har- vard University. Mr. Small was first elected for one term only, as he was then without experience; but at the expira- tion of that time, his work having been very satisfactory both to the principal and the board, he was re-elected for the remainder of the year and given a material increase in salary.


CENTRE DISTRICT.


In this district several important changes were made in the organization of the grades incident to the opening of the Mary A. Livermore building. The fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth grades were transferred to this building with Miss Sweetser as principal; and Miss Eva M. Crane was ap- pointed to the fifth grade, made vacant by the transfer of Miss George. Miss Melcher was given the fourth grade and the principalship of the Center building on Upham street, with Miss Atwood in the third grade, Miss White, formerly assistant to Miss Chapin, in the second, Miss Chapin retaining simply the first grade.

SCHOOL REPORT.


GROVE STREET DISTRICT.


The four new rooms at Grove street were opened with Miss Swett as principal and teacher of the eigth grade. The sixth and seventh grades at Essex street, under Miss Young and Miss Barrett, and the four grades at Lynde street, taught by Miss Dempsey and Miss Ellis, were trans- ferred to Grove street.


Miss Dempsey was given the first grade, Miss Cutter hav- ing resigned, Miss Ellis the second grade, and Miss Annie E. Tucker appointed to the third grade for which a separ- ate room was provided, leaving Mrs. Crosby the fourth grade only.


Mrs. Crosby was granted leave of absence from Septem- ber to January, and Miss Nellic E. Fay appointed as her substitute during that time. In September, Miss Dempsey and Miss Tucker exchanged grades, Miss Dempsey taking the third and Miss Tucker the first.


HIGHLAND DISTRICT.


At the Franklin school the only changes were the trans- fer of Mrs. Davis from the Ripley school to the fourth grade in place of Miss Teague, resigned, and the appoint- ment of Miss Mary E. Tupper to the third grade.


The resignation of Miss Florence M. Perry of the Green street school was greatly regretted both by the board and by the residents of that district. Miss Perry was unusually successful in her work, winning by her many excellent qualities, the respect and love of her pupils, and the appro- bation of the board. The vacancy caused by her resigna- tion was filled by the appointment of Miss Minnie F. C. Snow.


VINTON STREET.


In September, Miss Ransom was granted leave of


195


SCHOOL REPORT.


absence for one month, during which time her place was ably filled by Miss Taylor, a pupil of the Chelsea training school.

At the beginning of the spring term it was found neces- sary to open the fourth room at Upham Hill. Miss Chad- bourne was advanced to the fourth and fifth grades, Miss Call given the second and third grades and Miss Cecelia Coyle appointed to the first grade. In September Miss Call was transferred to Lynde street and Miss Bertha M. Lawrence appointed to the vacancy thus caused.


LYNDE STREET.


When the schools reopened in September the fifth grade at Grove street was found to contain seventy-six pupils. As it was impossible to provide for so many pupils in one room the grade was divided and a portion sent to Lynde street and placed in charge of Miss Call. This arrangement, how- ever, is only a temporary one, as the occupation of the D. W. Gooch building will allow the return of these pupils to Grove street.
