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 sub- mitted herewith.
New Schools
Reports of progress in the construction of two new fourteen room ele- mentary schools are most gratifying.
The crowding of classrooms which has been a matter of serious concern to us will soon be eliminated in our elementary schools.
The fact that our new schools will be ready for use in the fall of 1958 has served to redirect our attention to the need for additional housing facili- ties for our secondary school program.
We have been reviewing the problem and hope in the next few months to be able to submit, for the town's consideration, proposals for action which will be defensible from the standpoint of the long-range school housing needs and plans for Norwood.
Clerical Services
Our Callahan and Balch Schools have become so large that additional clerical services has been required to relieve Principals of the responsibility for minor duties and to free them to perform supervisory and administrative duties which are required in a smoothly operated program of such size.
On this account, two additional clerks have been employed.
School Committee Service
During this past year several members of our committee attended a seven session Seminar, conducted under the auspices of Boston University School of Education. Each of the sessions was devoted to a study of an area of school management with which School Committee members are concerned.
We feel that Norwood's schools will be better, and, our understanding of the problems we face improved, as a result of our participation. In addition to this program, many of our members have attended special meetings in many towns. Such meetings have been held for the purpose of discussing problems of concern to School Committee members and designed to bring about improvement in school programs.
Joint meetings have been held with the new Elementary Schools Building Committee. We know that, as a result of such meetings, these new schools which the Town is building will meet the specifications of a sound educational program.
Griffenhagen Report
Complying with the recommendations of the Finance Commission and their subsequent acceptance by the Town Meeting, the School Committee has, wherever indicated as desirable by those responsible for the Griffenhagen
262
TOWN OF NORWOOD
Salary Schedule report, arranged its personal salary schedule in accordance with such report.
We feel that a systematic, rather than haphazard method of arranging salary schedule is necessary both for the best interests of the town and its regular employee staff.
High School Bleachers
As a result of fire, a large section of our bleacher facility at the High School was destroyed. The bleachers have been repaired annually, at con- siderable cost to the town, and had arrived at a point where it was unecon- omical to maintain them.
Rotted sills and timbers, studs and supports which, with constant renail- ing, had left the whole structure in poor condition were the cause of our determination to raze them.
Replacement, for the immediate future, is unadvisable, due to the fact that addition to the High School Building, in anticipation of rapid growth, in the near future is imminent.
For the next year or so as well as for this past year, the expedient solu- tion seems to be to rent bleachers that are privately installed and owned.
However, the time is approaching when something in the form of a per- manent field house and bleacher facility for the High School Athletic program is indicated.
School Audit
For several years, and this is no exception, we have provided for a supervised audit of school accounts. We feel that a regular, systematic and supervised audit of all funds for which school authorities are responsible is a source of protection both to townspeople and to the school people responsible for such funds.
Classroom Lighting
Finally and after many years of planning for it, we have completed the modernization of our lighting equipment in all of the classrooms in the Norwood Schools.
Fluorescent fixtures, which provide in every corner of each of our classrooms a 30 candle power illumination rating have finally been installed.
Additional Land - School Site
When the school site in the Neponset Street-Dean Street intersection was acquired, the School Committee was aware of the need for additional space, if only to "roundout" the bonds of the site and so to make it more useful for school purposes. However, at the time the important thing seemed to be, to get at least that which at the time, seemed necessary.
The action taken at a recent town meeting in the procurement of the "Moore Lot" was most desirable and we feel that, with this land purchase, the new site will be very satisfactory for our purposes.

We, of the School Committee, appreciative of the many years of valuable service rendered by Edward J. Campbell, since he first entered the service of the Norwood Public Schools as custodian in several of our schools, hereby express our gratitude to him for faith- ful performance and conscientious application to his work, which was always so well done. In the years to come, and we hope they will be many, we trust that Mr. Campbell will derive great satisfaction from the memories of his association with us.

REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS
Herewith I submit my twenty-second 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.
Educational Television
At this writing, it has been well demonstrated that pooled resources can bring to the classroom the services of the expert, the "master" teacher, the one who among teachers is rare. Modern technology via the medium of tele- vision, makes possible the presentation of educational programs to each of several school communities, programs which none could provide inde- pendently.
This is not to say that such programs will relieve the problem of teacher shortage or teacher guidance. Educational Television will, however, make available to larger numbers better instruction than would otherwise be possible.
New enabling legislation has been passed which makes it possible for Norwood Schools, together with all other communities within the broad- casting range of Station WGBH to inaugurate, upon a co-operative basis, a program designed to bring educational television into our classrooms.
Initially, these offerings will be modest, but the promise of growth is excellent if we are to judge by the success which has met similar programs in other activities of the country.
Happily, our Norwood School Committee endorses the program and we look forward to its success.
266
TOWN OF NORWOOD
Evaluation
At a time when, because of accelerating growth in enrollments, expansion of housing facilities becomes necessary, we find an excellent opportunity to take a "hard" look at our current program with a view to making it better, by addition, deletion and modification. New ways of bringing our educational offerings up to date must be found.
I believe it is safe to say that each and every member of our teaching staff is alerted to the fact that, within the next few years very important developments in curriculum reorganization will have taken place at all levels and in each area of instruction in our schools.
We must be prepared to offer to each of our pupils a "tailored" pro- gram. one which will challenge the best efforts of our pupils.
Whereas, in the past, we have been quite attentive to the needs of the larger group of average and lower than average pupils, it appears that the accelerated and gifted among our pupils have had relatively little special attention.
In the past, I fear, many of these ablest scholars have been kept busy in activities less profitable than could be planned for them.
Because of lack of clearly defined standards of performance and the absence of a better program to meet the needs of many of our pupils who may be classified, scholarshipwise, as average or below average, we have allowed them to "drift" into programs to which they were poorly suited and in which their performance was and is less than satisfactory.
Throughout the year many meetings have been held with staff leaders for the purpose of planning depth, breadth, and direction of course offerings particularly at the secondary level.
We are hoping to be able to present to the School Committee, this year, a defensible plan for meeting the requirements of a reorganized curriculum and all that it implies.

Senior High School Library
For many years our High School Library has been ill-equipped and totally inadequate. Everyone who is interested, and there are many who are much pleased to learn that budgetary plans for 1958 will call for the appointment of a trained school librarian and a supply of books, and periodicals of which we may well be proud.
Guidance
For several years our Guidance Program has been incomplete. It has left much to be desired. It is gratifying to be able to announce that the School Committee is well aware of the need for improvement and is taking the necessary steps to improve the program. Real pogress in this area will be made before the writing of our next report to the townspeople of Norwood.
Special Classes
Lack of adequate space has made impossible a Special Class Program for all pupils who need it. At this writing, we have two Special Classes. One is
267
REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE
housed in the Junior High School and the other in the Winslow School. Next year, due to the fact that space will be available, we will have a third class. One of our Special Classes will be for children from 7-9 years of age, another for those 9-12 years of age and the third class for children between 12 and 15 years of age. The children so provided for will be educable (so-called).
Junior High School and Elementary School Institutes
Again this year, Wednesday afternoons have been set aside, weekly for the elementary schools and monthly for the Junior High School, for purposes of promoting an in-service training for teachers.
This program has proved invaluable in raising the tone of professional competence. However, it could be that a rearrangement of time schedules may be more desirable from the standpoint of satisfying needs of the school pro- gram. It is expected, that, following further study, we will suggest alterna- tive procedures for the next school year.
May I take this opportunity to express to our new 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.

Superintendent of Schools.

REPORT OF THE PRINCIPAL OF THE SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL
I have the honor to present my twelfth annual report as Principal of the Senior High School.
The year just concluded has been for faculty members at the Senior High School a year of unprecedented study and analysis of both school curriculum and school practices. Faculty members last spring voted unanimously to begin a two-year self-evaluation study covering every aspect of the school. In addition, with a doubled enrollment in prospect within the next few years, department heads and teachers have spent many hours in the initial planning of new school facilities as well as in curriculum revision. Finally in the wake of recent Soviet intercontinental missile and sputnik successes with accom- panying implications concerning American and Soviet education and even with regard to the future of the Free World, these faculty studies have been further expanded and intensified. In short we are moving ahead on many educational fronts at the Senior High School to meet, to the degree possible, the challenges of the times.
Education In Perspective
In our opinion, however, it is essential that at this junction of our Na- tional history, education be viewed in its proper perspective as it relates to the total problem which confronts our country. We must understand that the threat to us is not in Soviet education alone, but rather in Soviet Com- munism. In other words, educational mobilization of the Soviets is only one aspect of the total concentration of Soviet Society. Consequently, here, as elsewhere, it will not be enough for us to speek improvement in our educa- tional systems-important and necessary as this is. The answer in our present situation is far more inclusive than education alone.
As was recently pointed out in the NEW YORK TIMES!
"Only when we understand that, for our nation's survival, there are "indispensable goals" that must be ranked ahead of our indivi- dual propensities for conspicuous consumption and only when we act on that understanding will we really mobilize our society, in- cluding our education, to assure that our best abilities are devoted to the tasks on which our freedom depends. Nothing less can be ade- quate to meet the Soviet challenge." (1)
Science and Mathematics at the Senior High School
Albeit that the complete answer in today's crisis here and elsewhere cannot with safety be sought in education alone, it may nevertheless be worth while to examine as indicated in Table I and Table II below the extent to which Preparatory Mathematics and Preparatory Science were studied by the graduates of 1957-for this purpose at least, a typical class at Norwood High School. While some students in the class chose General Mathematics and/or Business Arithmetic and/or Consumer's Arithmetic, in order that
