To the People of the Town of Wayland:
Adhering to long established custom, the School Committee of Wayland hereby submits its report for the year, 1927, together with reports submitted to it by the Superintendent of Schools, High School Principal, School Nurse, School Physician and Attendance Officer.
The School Committee organized at its meeting in March, 1927, and elected Mr. Llewellyn Mills, Chairman of the Committee, and Mr. Warren L. Bishop as Secre- tary. Subsequently, the Committee met with the Com- mittees of Dover and Sudbury in joint session and re- elected Mr. Frank H. Benedict Superintendent of Schools. for the superintendency district, for a term of three years.
During the summer, the problem of repairing the High School was before the Committee. Bids for this work were solicited through published advertisements. Numerous bills were received by the Committee and it. was voted, after due consideration of same, to award the contract to Wright & Sons. We are sure that the work which was done meets with the approval of the people.
Another problem which has been considered by the Committee was that of providing a no-school signal in order that the schools might be closed on extremely stormy days. Arrangements have been made with the M. E. Church at Cochituate to ring the bell at 8.15 A. M. for a period of two minutes as a signal that there will be no school. This applies only to Cochituate Grammar School children. Parents are requested on doubtful days to listen at that hour for the signal. High School will be in session except when the weather is such that the buses may not be operated in safety.
It is most fortunate that the teachers both in the High and Grammar Schools who taught last year are

still with us. We feel that the schools of Wayland rank very high among other municipalities of the State. This is due not only to the earnest efforts of the students themselves, the splendid co-operation of the parents, but also to the splendid staff of teachers which we have here in Wayland. There are none better in the Common- wealth.
The Committee also commends to the eople of Wayland the splendid co-operation which it has had from the Superintendent of Schools, Mr. Benedict. The Com- mittee recognizes and appreciates his unselfish devotion to his duties, the high standard of his service and his never failing willingness to co-operate with the Commit- tee.
We urge the continued interest of the people in our schools and welcome at any time, suggestions wherein the state of the schools may be improved.
Respectfully submitted, SCHOOL COMMITTEE
