The quarterly bulletin has been regularly issued.
The Board of Trustees deeply regret the untimely demise of our fellow- member, Mr. Walter Berwick, and we deplore the loss of his services to the Board, which were highly valued by us.
Mr. George W. Cushing, who served so faithfully on the Board for six years, and to fill whose place Mr. Berwick was elected, has also passed on since our last report was issued. We also wish to record our recognition of his invaluable services to the Town on this Board, for which his abili- ties particularly fitted him.

Membership. The average membership of the Norwood schools for the year ending in June was 2,163. Three months later at the end of Sep- tember the membership was 2,288. The membership of the High School was 318. The average number of pupils per teacher in the grades was 39.4.
Additional Teachers Employed. This increase in the membership of the schools made it necessary to employ three additional teachers: a teacher

of English in the High School, an assistant in Household Arts and an assist- ant for two days each week in drawing.
New High School. In January the Town appropriated $250,000 for the erection of the new High School. In July work on the construction of the new building began, and since then up to the time of cold weather progress has been rapid. The corner stone was laid in November. With the completion of the new High School the congestion in the schools already noted will be relieved and the Town will have a High School building splen- didly adapted to modern educational requirements.
Elimination of the Ninth Grade. In June forty-four pupils were pro- moted from the eighth grade to the High School. In September the schools below the High School were put on an eight grade basis. This change to an eight grade system is in accordance with school organization elsewhere.
Study of English History Discontinued in the Grades. The change from a nine grade system to an eight grade system has meant a modification of the work in the last of the grammar grades. The study of English his- tory has been postponed to the High School. In place of this subject, additional time has been given to the work in household and manual arts.
Community Civics. In accordance with a recommendation of the State Board of Education a course in community civics was introduced in Sep- tember into the first year of the High School. Such a course is of especial value in Norwood because of the opportunity offered to study the workings of the most modern form of municipal government.
Swimming. By arrangement with the Civic Association the girls of the High School gymnasium classes now receive instruction in swimming. This opportunity first offered in 1916 to the High School boys is now ex- tended to the girls. The average weekly attendance of the boys is 50 and of the girls, 34.
Phonics. During the year a new system of phonics has been introduced into the primary grades. Results have been excellent.
Evening School. In September the work of the evening school under- went a considerable reorganization. In previous years the evening school has had to do very largely with the instruction of pupils of foreign birth in the English language. During the past three years, however, or since the beginning of the war, the membership of these classes has become smaller each year. When the evening school opened in September it was felt that. the school had the opportunity and the duty to make its con- tribution to the general plan of war time conservation. Accordingly classes were organized in dressmaking, millinery and woodworking. The attendance at these classes has been gratifying evidence that the instruct- ion offered has met real community needs. The work done has been dis- tinctly practical in the sense that it has been of economic value.
Diplomas Awarded Evening School Pupils. In February four pupils completed the grammar school work in the evening school and were sub- sequently awarded diplomas. These pupils are the first in Norwood to receive diplomas from evening school. The opportunity thus offered means that pupils who for any reason are unable to complete the regular grammar school course may now do so by attending evening school.
Health. The employment of a second school physician in September, in addition to the physician and the two nurses previously employed, has put the supervision of the health of the pupils on a more efficient basis. Each child is given a very thorough physical examination. The physicians visit their schools three times each week. The nurses are at work daily, safe- guarding the health of the pupils and following up cases that need attention.
Home Gardens. In April, shortly after our declaration of war against Germany, the School Department in co-operation with the Committee on Public Safety employed a supervisor of gardening. Mr. W. I. Mayo, Jr., a graduate of the Massachusetts Agricultural College and a young man with several years of practical experience in the management of a large farm,
177
was secured for this work. Under his supervision more than 300 children planted and cared for home gardens. Mr. Mayo's work also included giving advice to several hundred adult gardeners. A conservative esti- mate of the value of the products raised under his direction puts the figure at $4,000. Furthermore, the advice given will benefit the community for years to come. Since the town is to be reimbursed by the state to the ex- tent of two-thirds of the salary paid Mr. Mayo, the net expense to the town for his services for four months will be less than $150.
War Activities. Aside from ways already noted, the School Depart- ment has assisted in various activities growing out of the war. For ex- ample, when public meetings have had to be called on short notice, the word has gone to the homes through the pupils. The schools took a prominent part in the patriotic demonstration of the community on the Nineteenth of April. Boys have been excused from High School to assist in necessary farm work. A community market has been conducted on the Everett School grounds. Branches of the Junior Red Cross have been organized. The High School has become the headquarters of the Legal Advisory Board.
Gifts. The School Department is indebted to the Hon. F. O. Winslow for pictures given as a memorial to his wife, a former teacher in the Norwood schools; to the Parent-Teachers Association at the Shattuck School for playground apparatus; and to the teachers and pupils of the High School for a fifty dollar liberty bond. As fast as the coupons of this bond are cut they are to be placed at interest in the savings bank, and when the bond matures the amount that has accrued is to be used for such purpose as the School Committee at that time shall determine.
Improvement of School Premises. Under the supervision of the Town Manager the premises at the Guild, Shattuck, Winslow, Balch and West Schools have been improved. At the Guild School the basements have been whitewashed and six of the twelve rooms repainted and the ceilings kalsomined. At the Shattuck School the playground apparatus already referred to has been added. At the Winslow School the playground at the rear of the building has been filled in and levelled off. At the Balch School walks and driveways have been constructed and the grounds greatly improved thereby. At the West School the interior of the building has been painted, ceiling kalsomined and woodwork varnished.
Vacation School. The following comparative statement shows the re- sults secured in the vacation school held for six weeks during the summer.

The schools of Norwood have been fortunate during the year 1917 to have had no serious epidemics, though there were a number of cases of whooping cough during the fall term. Also there have been occasional cases of other contagious diseases in the various districts during the year.
A new system of recording the physical examinations as they are made by the school physicians was introduced in September, by the use of cards which will carry the health record of each child throughout the eight grades. Defects discovered by the doctors are noted, also whether treatment is recommended and carried out, whether the parents were noti- fied and whether or not the defects were remedied. It is expected that these records will be valuable for reference from year to year, and that they will show - long before it is time for a child to enter High School -- that all defects that could be corrected have received proper attention.
Our work has been the usual round of frequent inspections to guard against the spread of contagious diseases, occasional health talks in the schoolroom, examinations with the doctors for the discovery of physical defects, and the follow-up work necessary to accomplish the correction of defects. In the latter work we find opportunity to know the homes and the hygienic conditions there, as well as to learn of cases of need in the matter of warm clothing, fuel, and supplies required for the conservation of the health of the children. These cases are then reported to the proper authority and relief sent.
We wish to thank the people who have sent us clothing to distribute, as we have found many families who appreciate such help and find both the new and the secondhand clothing very useful.
