TOWN OF NORWOOD
The requests for engineering service still continue to increase and it is al- most impossible to hire additional engineering help at the rates set up by the Town of Norwood. To induce engineers to work for a municipality it will be necessary to pay salary rates above the prevailing rates and if this is done we will have a personnel problem with those engineers now employed by the Town.

REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE
REPORT OF THE SCHOOL COMMITTEE
To the Citizens of Norwood:
The reports of the Superintendent, Principals, and Supervisors, present vital facts related to Norwood Schools. Items which the School Committee regards reportable and not included in the aforementioned reports are submitted herewith.
Maintenance - Building
During the summer months the Senior High School was completely redeco- rated, a project which for some years has been under consideration. However, the cost of other "things to be done", which would seem to have priority has made it necessary to postpone until this year, this most important work. There remains to be done, complete relighting job which is being planned. Completion will not be possible, however, until new transformers are built into the Senior High School plant. This project, when completed, will make possible the completion of the installation, throughout the building of fluorescent lighting. The transformer installation will be so planned as to provide for additional electric and power loads, when it again becomes necessary to build an addition to the Senior High School.
The Junior High School building, redecorated last year. is now equipped, throughout, with fluorescent lighting fixtures, and, judging from reports from those who have been in a position to note the difference from the old lighting, the results have been most satisfactory.
Another project which, for some time, has been under consideration, has been completed - the redecoration of the interior of the Balch School all-purpose room. Here, again, the improved appearance of the whole school has had a most salutary effect upon all who have occasion to visit or to attend the school.
For several years, we have endeavored to find enough money to replace the old stoves in the Home Economics laboratories in both the Junior and Senior High Schools. This has been done this year and while in the process of completion of stove purchase and installation arrangements, a new tile floor was installed in the Foods Laboratory in the Senior High School.
Old desks and chairs are gradually being replaced in each of our schools and several thousand dollars worth of new, up-to-date classroom furniture has been purchased, some in each of the elementary and Junior High Schools.
Maintenance - Future Needs
We are planning to re-light with modern fluroescent fixtures each of the ele- mentary schools wherein, especially on dark days, lighting appears to be poor in many classrooms.
There is much left to be done in the replacement of worn-out, old and out-of- date classroom desks and chairs.
Of the many things which were scheduled for completion this past year, one important project has yet to be completed, - the installation of hot water facilities in all of our schools, some of which are quite inadequate.
Callahan School Cafeteria
We are much pleased to report the opening of the cafeteria in the new addi- tion to the Callahan School. Under the leadership and management of Mrs.
198
TOWN OF NORWOOD,
Timothy Connolly, the lunchroom program is most satisfactory and well patronized. In passing, it would be well to note the fact that there is yet much to be done in bringing into other elementary schools, and including the Junior High School modern lunchroom facilities.
Bleachers and Playing Field
Many thousands of dollars were expended in re-turfing the baseball diamond land gridiron this year. There is not to be forgotten the problem of adequate seating facilities during football games. The erection of a field house and permanent bleachers will soon be a "must".
Poliomyletis
The dreadful scourge of polio struck with terrible force in all of Massachusetts this year and school opening was postponed for approximately two weeks, - in the interest of safeguarding the health of our children.
New School Housing
The reader is invited to examine carefully the charts herein contained for the purpose of appreciating the extent to which it will be necessary, immediately, to provide additional school housing facilities, especially for elementary school children. References to the Reports of the School Committee of the past few years will reveal an awareness of this need, and progress in the solution of this problem is very much a disappointment to those who have to deal with the many problems which arise from lack of adequate school housing facilities.

RESOLUTION
RUTH VANCE
We, members of the Norwood School Committee, in appreciation of the excel- lent service rendered our schools and our town by Miss Ruth Vance over a period of thirty-four years, extend our best wishes for continued happiness in the many years which we hope lie before you.
Mindful of the hundreds of children whom it was always her pleasure to teach and in their behalf, we convey to her the message of gratitude for her devo- tion to her work and to their best interests.
We trust that there are ahead for Miss Vance many years during which she may look back upon and derive much satisfaction from her excellent record as a servant of our town and its' people.

REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE
RESOLUTION
ANNIE MARIE THOMPSON
After thirty-four years of uninterrupted service in the work carried on in the public schools of Norwood, we know that you must feel that you have played a very important part in, and, contributed in no small way, to our school program.
Ever mindful of your generous, cooperative and enthusiastic spirit in your work, it is with regret that we note the departure from our service of one whom we shall long remember.
We hope that in the years to come, you will look upon this record with much satisfaction. We hope, too, that the memories of pleasant associations and work well done will enrich the enjoyment of the many years we hope lie before you.

REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS
Herewith I submit my twentieth report as Superintendent of Schools. There are included in my report such statements as may well have been, but, for one reason or another, have not been made by others in the Report of the School Committee.
Gifts
The P. T. A. Council has this year contributed $200 for the purpose of assisting in the promotion of a more enriched music program for the elementary schools. The money was pro-rated for use among each of the elementary schools, and spent, at the discretion of principals with advice from members of the Music Department.
Cafeteria - Lunchroom
It appears that, with the growth of our Town, an ever-increasing number of pupils are being transported to school by reason of distance from home to school. This gives rise to a problem which must be faced particularly, as we find it necessary to provide new school housing. It seems to me that, as a matter of plan- ning for the future, it may be well to consider central food preparation, freezing and storage facilities as an economy well worth planning. Such arrangement will make unnecessary similar uneconomical facilities in each of the schools for which lunchroom facilities may be necessary.
Single Session vs. Double Session
At present, we have all grades from one through nine organized upon a double- session plan. It has been possible to maintain this arrangement, notwithstanding considerable pressure which has been brought to bear upon the School Committee
202
TOWN OF NORWOOD
to reorganize upon a one-session basis. Although those who have been in favor of a single-session have much to support their plan, their argument would be weak indeed if it were not for the fact that our lunchroom facilities are extremely poor. Now, a new situation is at hand which may eventually require a single-session arrangement. Our rapidly rising enrollments, together with crowded classrooms force us to think of the single-session in a platoon arrangement.
Personally, I feel impelled to say that, aside from the administrative incon- venience of the arrangement, we must face the fact that under the "platoon" system, large groups of children will be left to their own devices for a substantial part of the day. It will not be surprising, as it has not been surprising to find, in large cities, the formation of "gang" of children moving in search of satisfying excitement which may in some cases be classed as juvenile delinquency.
Married Teachers
There is much to be said in favor of a regulation which makes it impossible to place certain married teachers "on tenure". The belief that married women should be "at home" instead of being otherwise employed, together with the con- viction that, if there are teaching positions to be filled, they should be given to single women or to men, are extremely potent arguments for such regulation. However, young women who have prepared for teaching, and who are otherwise well qualified, before they are willing to accept a teaching position in any "given" Town are quite naturally looking forward to matrimony.
Many such people who may realize that matrimony is a disqualification for employment, will choose to teach elsewhere due to the fact that they may want, for one reason or another, to continue teaching following marriage. In some cases the young teacher will, immediately following employment, look for a teaching position in another community where there is no such regulation. Among com- munities in the Commonwealth more than 90 percent have no such regulation. We in Norwood have lost teachers of good promise, single women who have left, and for this reason alone.
It is discouraging to think of the probability that the normal young woman teacher whom you employ is immediately looking for opportunities elsewhere.
Parking - Cars - Traffic
The ever-increasing amount of automobile traffic which our streets have to bear has its impact upon the school situation.
No small part of our problem arises at the opening and closing of school ses- sions when automobiles of parents and teachers and buses too, are all competing for the same space. The pedestrian child is in constant danger, in and out of buses, between cars, in front of and behind them.
I am much pleased that the School Committee plans to authorize the building of semi-circular drives in front of the Callahan School, the Junior High School, and . a parking lot adjacent to the Henry O. Peabody Schools. These projects, I hope, we may be able to complete during this next year.
Mental Health and Child Adjustment
To us, the essence of good education is adjustment. It cannot be achieved without sound mental health. It is encouraging to see interested people in Norwood and surrounding towns making a frontal attitude upon this problem.
203
REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE
Of the first steps to be taken, there is none more important than an awareness on the part of parent and teacher that mental health is important, that it can be achieved, that its absence can be observed, and that something can be done.
It is to be hoped that our teachers, principals, and supervisors will seek to im- prove their understanding of child behavior and that our town will respond to the appeal for the establishment of a Mental Health Clinic to be organized for the Norwood Area and located in quarters provided by the town,
Its cost will be insignificant - its value great.
Conclusion
May I take this opportunity to express to our teachers a word of welcome, to our older teachers and other co-workers a word of gratitude, and to the School Committee, a word of appreciation for the helpful support and encouragement which has been given me.
