QUINCY HIGH SCHOOL


Mr. Frank E. Parlin, Superintendent of Schools :


It gives me pleasure to submit, in accordance with cus- tom, the following report of the Quincy High School for the year ending Dec. 31, 1904.


The work has been creditable, considering the enforced division and the overcrowded condition of the school. Har- mony, sympathy, and an excellent school spirit have prevailed. The pupils have recognized the difficulties under which the school is conducted and have co-operated to decrease the work of administration. Until ample accommodations are provided, it will be impossible to secure such results as the faithful efforts of teachers and pupils ought to produce.


A comparison of the per cent. of the average daily attend- ance since 1899 shows a large decrease in the number of absentees. It is especially marked considering that a variation of one per cent. means a change of about six pupils in the number of absentees each day.


1899-93.9 per cent. 1902-93.4 per cent.


1900-94.5 per cent. 1903-93.4 per cent.


1901-94.0 per cent. 1904-95.0 per cent.


This change is due largely to a regulation which has been enforced during the past year requiring all pupils absent from recitations for any cause to take written tests upon the lost work or to lose all credit for the same. In addition to im- proving the attendance this regulation has increased the rate of progress of the classes and decreased the number who fail. It has also indicated the value pupils attach to school study periods since now they avoid, for the most part, unnecessary absences, preferring to use their time for advanced study rather than for making up work. The following fac-simile of the blank used by the teachers will show the method employed to enforce the regulation :-

*For the fall term, September 1904 to December 31, 1904.


A modern high school cannot be conducted in recitation rooms alone, for mental training is no longer considered the whole aim of education. To-day, the whole individual is pre- pared by physical, intellectual and moral training for active, honest, self-directed participation in the varied interests of society. Such a school requires not only recitation rooms; but it also requires well-equipped laboratories for the sciences,


31.


a library, a gymnasium, rooms for manual training, drawing, domestic science, and an assembly hall.


At present the Quincy High School lacks nearly all of these necessary and important features ; and it also fails to pro- vide even a sufficient number of recitation rooms.


Since September 1899 the school has enrolled more pupils than could possibly be crowded into the present building, mak- ing it necessary to provide additional accommodations which have proved unsatisfactory to pupils, parents and teachers. At first, neighboring stores were used; then, the stores being outgrown, the old high school building, long ago condemned as antiquated and unsanitary, was re-opened; and now, since both buildings cannot accommodate the pupils, it is necessary to hold an afternoon session. The condition at the opening of the fall term showed very clearly the great overcrowding and the im- perative need of more room. After the new building had been filled with nearly a hundred more pupils than it can properly accommodate, and after every seat at the old building had been assigned, there still remained about eighty pupils for whom there were neither seats nor room.


The afternoon session is unsatisfactory and detrimental to the interests of the school. It has shortened the morning ses- sion which was not too long to accomplish the required work, and made it more difficult for teachers to assist deficient pupils, thus depriving the school of a part of its opportunities to serve its purpose. Psychologists have ascertained by careful experi- ment that the energy of the central nervous system varies throughout the day ; that beginning at a minimum in the early morning it gradually increases to a maximum at about eleven o'clock, then decreases to the minimum again at about four in the afternoon. After this it again begins to increase towards the maximum. For this reason, the pupils and the teachers in the afternoon are working at a great disadvantage compared with those of the morning, because they are trying to do mental work when the brain is at the lowest phase of energy, and where concentrated application and attention fatigue most rapidly. Although there is an intermission of less than ten


32


minutes between the sessions, it is not feasible to keep the afternoon pupils more than three hours, since even then, dur- ing part of the year, the work must be done by artificial light and the pupils return home after dark. Since the time given to recitations cannot be much reduced, it is necessary for most of the work to be prepared at home, where often the conditions are not conducive to hard study. Again, since the sports and school contests must be carried on during the afternoon, the pupils of the second session must be deprived of them. Every- thing possible has been done to equalize the advantages and opportunities of all pupils. None but trained and experienced teachers are employed, the divisions are small so as to allow of more individual work, and rooms are used which have the best heat, light and ventilation. And yet, the school cannot be administered in an economical, business-like manner nor its best work be done until ample room and adequate equip- ment are provided.


Unless the building is to be enlarged in the near future, certain repairs and changes should be made at once. The sanitary arrangements of the building are unsatisfactory and inadequate. They should be enlarged and connected with the sewerage system of the city. The basement ought to receive a coat of whitewash; some method of ventilating and heating the coatrooms should be provided; the corridors which are used for recitation purposes should be properly heated, lighted, and ventilated ; and the yard at the south of the building should be graded so as to turn the water away and prevent the flooding of the basement during heavy storms.


The business department of the school is greatly in need of larger desks. The desks in use do not provide sufficient room for the work and papers of the pupils. Two rooms at least ought to be equipped with desks having tops not less than 3 feet long by 2 feet wide, supplied with pigeonholes and drawers for vouchers, forms, and books. At present it is im- possible to secure the careful, accurate, neat work that should be required in bookkeeping, because of the confusion of materials and books due to the scant desk room. Desks similar


33


to those found in places of business would improve the de- partment and react favorably on all pupils, giving them a more serious, business-like impression of the work.


The number of pupils who continue their studies after graduation is also rapidly increasing. There are 98 recent graduates taking advanced courses. Of this number 61 are attending the so-called higher institutions of learning. They are distributed as follows : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 6 ; Harvard, 5; Simmons, 11; Wellesley, 3; Tufts, 2; Boston University, 9; Brown, 2; Mount Holyoke, 1; Dartmouth, 1; Radcliffe, 4; other colleges and professional schools, 7; Normal Schools, 8; European Universities, 2.


For the past two years, the June examinations for admis- sion to Harvard and Radcliffe have been held at the school building under the direction of the officers of the University. This has been of great advantage to the pupils, since it has removed the nervous strain that comes from work- ing under strange conditions and amid new surroundings. It has also saved the expense of board and travelling to Cam- bridge, and has kept the idea of higher education more vividly before the minds of the pupils.


Athletics are in excellent condition. They are controlled by an athletic association made up of teachers and pupils, and directed by an executive committee composed of representa- tives from each of the classes, from the graduates and from the teachers. This committee has full charge of raising money, determining the qualifications of members of the team, award- ing the Q's, and directing the expenses for athletic purposes. During the past year, in order to arouse more interest in track athletics, silver cups were purchased to be awarded for a year to the class making the largest number of points at the field day contests. The name of the winning class is engraved on the cup.


The school has received, during the year, several works of art which beautify the building. The Class of 1904, following the example of recent graduating classes and wishing to show its appreciation of the advantages it had enjoyed, generously


34


presented to the school beautiful reproductions of the statue of Minerva, with a pedestal, and of the bas-relief of the Four- horse Chariot which was found in Herculaneum. With a part of the proceeds of the concerts given by the school, a pedestal was purchased for the Winged Victory; a smail cabinet was bought for the athletic cups used as prizes for the field day events ; and a second bas-relief, the companion pie ce of the Chariot, was secured. The school is again indebted to Mr. F. A. Skinner who has presented large photographs of the football teams of 1903 and 1904.


The income of the Rock Island Fund was as usual devoted to the purchase of reference books for the school. By means of this fund and by the addition of supplementary books from time to time the school is graduaily accumulating a valuable reference library. Some room equipped with book-cases and reading tables must be provided before the pupils can make the best use of the books.


The exchange of several old typewriters which had outlived their usefulness for modern machines has given the commercial department an excellent equipment and provided opportunity for all pupils to use good machines and to secure satisfactory results. The work of this department would be further im- proved if the pupils did not elect stenography and typewriting before the last two years of the course.


The members of the Class of 1904 are distributed as follows :

Report of Truant Officer


To Mr. Frank E. Purlin, Superintendent of Schools.


I herewith submit my seventh annual report as truant officer.


The work of the department this year has been much the same as last year. For various reasons boys will continue to play truant, but when I search for the cause, I am forced to draw the same conclusion-home life and influence. Parental lack of interest in the school, and a readiness to criticise the teacher tend to encourage the boy to play truant. Although no one has been placed in the Truant School during the year there are many cases on probation, as I believe the Truant School should be the last resort.


There has been an increase of non-attendance due in most part to an effort of those near the age limit of fourteen to go to work. The law in this case has been strictly complied with and the children sent to school again, many times against the wishes of the parents. I have visited a large number of our manufacturing plants and have found a willingness on the part of the proprietors to comply with the State law.


The number of young men between the ages of fourteen and eighteen who are mere loafers, is on the increase in our city, and I have many complaints of their misdemeanors. Itrust the citizens and those in charge of the young life of our city will endeavor to impress upon the children the value of work rather than idleness and loafing on the street.


It has been my good fortune through the aid of citizens and organizations to assist many families with clothes and shoes, and I have always found a ready response from the recipients by the attendance of the children at school.


The curfew law should receive more attention from the police department.


In closing I desire to express my hearty thanks to the superintendent and principals of the several schools for their many acts of kindness toward me in the discharge of my duties.


The following table shows in detail my work for the year.
