Report of the Supervisor of Drawing.


Mr. M. H. Bowman, Superintendent of Schools :


It is impossible in the district schools to give in a single. year work that is best adapted to individual grades. There- fore I have made it my object to take up especially such bran- ches as seem essential, but in which the schools may be least proficient. I have also tried to vary the program by present- ing in new terms, yet comprehensive, some of the fundamen- tal principles which of necessity are repeated from year to year.


The plan seems to have been successful as the results are. satisfactory, and interest on the part of the children is not lacking:


Thanks is due the teachers who have so heartily given their co-operation, and to the superintendent whose support I gratefully acknowledge.


Respectfully submitted,


LUCILE GRAVESTEIN,


Supervisor of Drawing.


Hatfield, January 25, 1909.


Report of the Supervisor of Music.


Mr. M. H. Bowman, Superintendent of Schools :


Dear Sir .- The work in this department has been con- ducted along the same general lines as in preceding years: the main divisions of the work being: song work, individual work sight singing and theory.


There has been marked improvement along these lines and the work of both pupils and teachers is very satisfactory.


Respectfully submitted,


CHRISTINE A. REECE,


Supervisor of Music.

Report of the School Physicians.


To the School Committee of Hatfield ..


Clear distinction must be made between medical inspec- tion solely for the detection of communicable disease and that physical examination which aims to discover defects, diseases and physical condition.


The one relates primarily to the immediate protection of the community, while the other looks to securing and main- taining the health and vitality of the individual.


Your School Physicians find that certain defects in in, dividuals bear some relation to susceptibility to contagion, and that with improvement in condition, individual immunity may be increased.


To reap the benefits of examination involves the constant attention willingly given by the teachers with reference to seating the deaf where they can hear best, and those having poor vision where they can see best, as well as constant co- operation with the parents.


In this relation, it is requested that more attention be given to reports of physical defects in pupils, when such re- ports are sent to parents by the teachers.


Seventy-five (75) per cent. of the children have complied with the law in regard to vaccination; in no case has the re- sult been other than satisfactory.
