SCHOOL DEPARTMENT.
TO THE CITIZENS OF QUINCY :
The School Board submit herewith their report of the past year's work in our schools.
There is little in the way of new ideas that we can add to the great store which has been given you in previous years.
We believe that the schools are in as good a state of pro- gress as ever. That no backward step has been taken.
By the resignation of Mr. George I. Aldrich, from the position of Superintendent, a vacancy was created which was filled by the promotion of Mr. Herbert W. Lull. The choice has proved to be a wise one.
While our new Superintendent had no special training for the position, his thorough knowledge of the art of teaching, acquired by years of experience, with an energy which is con- tagious and a desire to do all the duty which devolves upon the position, with a wide and broad intelligence it is certain that Mr. Lull's first year with us as Superintendent has been one of great success.
Heretofore, for several years, the towns of Quincy and Milton united and had one Superintendent. This has now been changed and the Superintendent of Schools in Quincy gives his whole time to the schools of our city.
We believe that this is greatly to our advantage.
On September 24, 1892 was dedicated the Lincoln School Building.
230
Very wisely, following the traditions which have prevailed among the different School Boards, the name of our martyr President-" The First American "-was given to this building. The necessity of its being built is demonstrated by the fact that it is full to over-flowing.
The High School building, over forty years old ; is entirely inadequate to meet the requirements of our city. The impera- tive necessity for a new building is fully known by every citizen. We think that in the new building which should be built at once, rooms for the School Board and office for the Superintendent should be provided.
We are well aware that a large sum of the possible revenue of our city is required for the proper support of our schools. The charge is an ever increasing one. Consider for one moment that our school population increased last year 332. It costs about twenty dollars per annum for each pupil. The natural increase would alone call for increased expenditure of rather more than $6,000.
Our motto is ever onward and upward. We must not be laggards in the race but always in the van. We feel sure that you desire it. In carrying out your wishes we are your servants, and we are sure that all needful and required sums will be given us to carry on the work of our schools.
The city of Quincy is a training field from which those towns and cities which pay larger salaries to their teachers con- tinually recruit. This is an obvious injury to our schools. We are continually feeling the necessity of revising our salary list. We wish for the best talent in our schools. To obtain it we must pay for it.
The teaching force has been increased during the past year by nine, two of whom were male principals, and two were specialists.
Two new school districts were formed this year and slight changes made in others. Some slight modifications of these lines must be made which will relieve the Lincoln School.
The total valuation of buildings and land is put by the assessors at $307,110.00, a sum more than equal to the entire indebtedness of our city.
231
For the details of cost of supporting our schools, reference is made to the report of the Superintendent which is hereto annexed, all of which is respectfully submitted.

REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT.
TO THE SCHOOL COMMITTEE OF QUINCY :
Gentlemen,-In accordance with Rule 13. of the New Rules of the School Board : "The Superintendent at the end of each year shall make a written report to the Board." I therefore pre- sent the following, which is my first report; but it is the eighteenth in the series prepared by the Superintendent of Schools, and the forty-third of the printed reports.
In the following pages it will be my desire to give you a plain, business-like statement of the condition of the schools of Quincy, without attempting to discuss any of the great educa- tional principles that underlie them :
1. SCHOOL PROPERTY.
High School : wood, furnaces, 3 rooms, erected in 1852, with land valued at
$9,000 00
Adams School : wood, furnace and stoves, 10 rooms, erected in 1855, enlarged in 1879, with land valued at
15,000 00
Coddington School : wood, stoves, two buildings of 6 and 3 rooms, erected in 1855, enlarged in 1876, with land valued at
20,000 00
John Hancock School: brick, steam, 8 rooms, third floor unfinished, erected in 1886, with land valued at
45,000 00
Lincoln School : brick, steam, 8 rooms, erected in 1892, with land valued at . Quincy School : wood, furnaces, 8 rooms, erected in 1873, with land valued at
28,000 00
19,700 00
Amount carried forward .
$136,700 00
234
Amount brought forward . $136,700 00
Washington School: wood, furnaces, 8 rooms,
erected in 1858, enlarged in 1874, with land valued at 11,000 00
Willard School : brick, Smead system, 16 rooms, erected in 1891, third floor unused, with land valued at 112,310 00
Wollaston School : wood, Smead and furnace, 9 rooms, erected in 1873, enlarged in 1890, with land valued at 34,000 00
$294,010 00
Furniture, books, apparatus, etc. 12,500 00
$306,510 00
In addition, there are two school lots :
The Germantown lot is assessed at $300 2 The Quincy Neck at $300 S 600 00
Total valuation $307,110 00
The nine buildings are now seated for 3,826 pupils. There are 3,724 different pupils enrolled.
This schedule shows a gain of one building of eight rooms during the past year. This increase is due to the erection of the new building on Brooks avenue, in Ward Three, for the accom- modation of those children living between the two lines of the Old Colony Railroad and south of Water, Copeland and Station streets. The long discussion regarding the need of such a build- ing delayed work so long that the house was not ready for occupancy until the third week of the fall term. The eight. rooms are unusually well adapted for forty-two pupils each, and can, without encroaching too much on the floor surface or the air volume, accommodate forty-eight. By this scale the house will seat 384. For the pleasure of those who insisted that the need of increased accommodation in this part of Ward Three was pressing, it should be stated that the average number be- longing since September is 433. In addition, in April there will
