A change in the manner of transportation of children from the rural districts was made, beginning in Sep- tember.


Owing to the worn-out condition of the Town barge, which would have to be replaced with a new one, it was deemed advisable to employ motor vehicles, as a matter of economy to the Town, and a convenience to both pupils and parents in shortening the time required in transporting the pupils to and from the schools.


With all school property in good condition and all

ANNUAL REPORT


REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS


To the School Committee of Plainville :


Gentlemen: I herewith present for your considera- tion my tenth annual report of the schools of Plainville for the year 1921. This is the seventeenth report in the series of Superintendent's reports.


School Budget


The expenditures for education in 1921 were an in- crease of 5 per cent. over 1920.


The budget for 1922 will require $20,400, divided as follows: Teachers' salaries, $13,400; janitors' services, $1300; transportation, $2000; books and supplies. $900; incidentals and industrial, $900; Superintendent of Schools, $200; school physician, $100; school nurse, $300; fuel, $1300.


The town will be reimbursed by the State as follows : For teachers' salaries, $1,763.20; from the Massachu- setts School Fund, $2,295.46; by High School Aid, $1,043.25; for Superintendent of Schools, $386; the whole amount totaling $5,487.91.


Teachers


The following resignations and appointments show the change in the teaching force since the last report : .


Resignations :


Amasa F. Williston, High School


Viola M. Jackson, High School Ruth F. Hiatt, High School Natalie Chapman, Primary School


Marion D. Williston, Household Arts

Appointments :


Webster Hall, High School


Jessie I. Pithie, High School


Joyce R. Littlehale, High School


Ruth K. Fisher, High School


Lucile H. Robbins, Primary School


Georgia M. Burditt, Household Arts


The changes in the force of teachers were more than in any year for the past ten years.


Of the six new teachers elected to fill the vacancies, three are college graduates, one a normal school grad- uate, one, a business college graduate, and one, a grad- uate of the Boston School of Domestic Science.


Hot Lunches


The hot lunches served last year through the gene- rosity and work of the Plainville Grange were a de- cided success. The lunches are self-supporting. This year the cooking department prepares the lunches under the supervision of the teacher of cooking and the regular grade teachers.


The lunches are popular. The pupils look forward to the lunch hour with much pleasure, because they get something hot.


School Nurse


The following law was enacted by the General Court last year :


CHAPTER 357, ACTS OF 1921


An Act Providing for the Appointment of School Nurses in the Public Schools


Section 1. Chapter seventy-one of the General Laws is hereby amended by striking out section fifty- three and inserting in place thereof the following :


43


ANNUAL REPORT


Section 53. The School Committee shall appoint one or more school physicians and nurses, shall assign them to the public schools within its jurisdiction, shall pro- vide them with all proper facilities for the performance of their duties and shall assign one or more physicians to the examination of children who apply for health certificates required by section eighty-seven of chapter one hundred and forty-nine, but in cities where medical inspection hereinafter prescribed is substantially pro- vided by the Board of Health, said board shall appoint and assign the school physicians and nurses. The de- partment may exempt towns having a valuation of less than one million dollars from so much of this sec- tion as relates to school nurses.


Section 2. Said chapter seventy-one is hereby fur- ther amended by inserting after section fifty-three the following new sections :


Section 53A. A superintendency district formed and conducted under the provisions of section sixty, or a superintendency union formed and conducted under the provisions of sections sixty-one to sixty-four, inclusive, may employ one or more school physicians and may em- ploy one or more school nurses; determine the relative amount of service to be rendered by each in each town ; fix the compensation of each person so employed; ap- portion the payment thereof among the several towns; and certify the respective shares to the several Town Treasurers. A school physician or nurse so employed may be removed by a two-thirds vote of the full mem- bership of the joint committee.


Section 53B. The towns comprised in a superin- tendency district or union employing, to the satisfaction of the department, one or more school physicians and nurses in accordance with the provisions of section 53A shall be exempt from the provisions of section 53 re- quiring the appointment of such persons.


44


ANNUAL REPORT


The School Committee has engaged Mrs. Gina F. Whitehouse of Foxboro, a registered nurse, for one day a week, provided an appropriation is made at the next annual town meeting for the purpose.


Towns with a school enrollment of 2500 employ nurses for full time. Plainville, with a school enrollment of 280, would, under the above ratio, require a nurse for one day a week or even less.


The work of the nurse will be of great value in im- proving the physical condition of the children.


The 'school physician should make a thorough physi- cal examination of each pupil once a year. Then the health work can be done by the nurse by personal in- spection of the children and by visits to the homes, the school physician being further called only for consulta- tion and diagnosis.


Physical Exercise


Last year the General Court passed a law making physical instruction required in the public schools. Plainville would need such a teacher only a small part of the time. Therefore no special instructor has been employed. We have tried to comply with the law by requiring the regular teachers to devote certain time each day to such instruction.


Parent-Teacher Association


A parent-teacher association has recently been or- ganized.


Such an association can be of great service by pro- moting a better acquaintance with the teachers and a closer touch with the work of the schools.


Drawing and Music


Miss Brigham reports the usual good work in draw- ing. The last exhibition gave sufficient evidence.


45


ANNUAL REPORT


Mrs. Tisdale says : "We very much need new records for the Victrola. I would like to do more in Apprecia- tion of Music. I would like to have the pupils from the High School assemble in the Town Hall occasionally to hear the Victrola. I would give them lessons in Appreciation of Music.


"One of the great benefits of music in the public schools is the teaching to the coming generation the ability to hear and appreciate good music. Music should be a socializing force in American life, and it is through the home and community life that school music will be the means of producing this force."


Conclusion


We still need playground apparatus and a dental clinic. An organized supervised playground is indis -. pensible, if we would secure the greatest good to the students as a whole.


Many boys and girls lack robust health through de- cayed teeth. All the children should have their teeth examined once a year by a dentist. Then the school nurse should follow up the work.


The boys should have manual training. The only reason why they do not have it is the want of an instructor.


Your attention is called to the reports and statistics which follow :


I wish to thank the teachers, the School Committee and the citizens of Plainville for their helpful sugges- tions and their hearty co-operation during the past year.


Respectfully submitted,


IRA A. JENKINS

ANNUAL REPORT


Report of the High School Principal


To the Superintendent of the Plainville Schools :


Dear Sir: I take pleasure in submitting to. you my first annual report, as Principal of the High School.


On registration day, school opened with an enroll- ment of fifty pupils, since which time two pupils have left school-one on account of difficulties at home, and another removing to Boston. One particularly gratify- ing feature of registration was the re-entrance into school life of some students who had left school in pre- vious years.


All great educators agree that the aim of education is, primarily, three-fold :- that is, the all-round de- velopment of the students, morally, mentally and physi- cally. It is further agreed that such a plan of educa- tion, definitely followed out, leads to the production of a group of broad-minded citizens, well fitted to cope with their various responsibilities, civic and national, which may devolve upon them in their after lives.


We have been considerably handicapped in following out the physical development of the students, due to lack of places of practice. However, this handicap has been considerably lightened through the co-opera- tion of Mr. Charles Whiting, of the Whiting & Davis Company, whom I wish to thank publicly, for the free use of his tennis courts, which he so kindly granted the High School students.


My aim, educationally, is not the production of ascetics, nor scholastic fanatics, but rather the produc- tion of a group of thinking men and women, well trained to take up whatever duties may be connected with their life work.


47


ANNUAL REPORT


In the accomplishment of this, I have been, and still am, very ably assisted by Miss Pithie in the Commer- cial Department, Miss Littlehale in English and His- tory, and Miss Fisher in the Ancient and Romance languages. It is to them, largely, that I owe the popu- larity and esteem, in which the High School is held by the students.


At this time, I want to congratulate the town of Plainville on its two most valuable assets. First, and of major importance, the courteous, refined and re- spectful attitude of the High School students. I have remarked to you, sir, several times, as you will remem- ber, that I have never met a more gentlemanly or lady- like class of students during my professional life. These students are the future citizens, and Plainville may well be proud of them.


Secondly, I wish to congratulate the town on their efficient corps of Grammar School teachers. Their ef- ficiency is well shown by the high standards of scholar- ship attained in the High School. These were made possible only through the firm academic foundation laid in the Grammar Schools.


A Parent-Teachers' Association is in the process of formation at present, and gives promise of being a very healthy organization before the academic year closes. At these meetings, the students of the Domestic Science Department give tangible examples of their ability, in the form of delectable refreshments, prepared under the efficient tutelage of Miss Burditt. Two huge "Get-to- Gethers" are planned as follows: One for the fathers and sons, in the latter part of February, and the sec- ond for the mothers and daughters in the latter part of March. Committees are already at work upon these events.


48


ANNUAL REPORT


As a means of bringing about a sense of more com- plete co-operation between the students and teachers, socials are held monthly in the Town Hall for the High School students and teachers of both buildings, ex- clusively.


Mr. Superintendent, allow me to make one prophecy. In the several years in which Plainville has competed for the Singleton Trophy, it has never been victor. I will not be so boastful as to say that this year we WILL win it-but sir, I promise you that the competing towns will have to be represented by premier speakers in order to take the trophy from us this year.


In closing, permit me to express the appreciation of the new teachers in Plainville for the wonderful spirit of help and co-operation we meet on every hand.


Respectfully submitted,


WEBSTER HALL, Principal.

CLASS ODE


In our minds there's a wonderful picture, Tho' our paths may lead us far from here, We'll always remember our school days, And our class-mates we love so dear, Tho' our hearts may be filled with grief, This picture will give relief.


Chorus


In the future we all can look backward, And think of our high school career. How we'll miss our teachers and class-mates, All these memories to us will be dear. Tho' our hearts may yearn, we can never return. For our high school work is complete, We must never dispair, but forget all our care. And with smiles the whole world we'll greet.

REPORT OF DOMESTIC SCIENCE TEACHER


To the Superintendent of Schools. Plainville. Mass. :


Whereas my teaching of Domestic Science has been short in Plainville, this report of necessity must be brief.


Classes are held in Plainville. Monday. Tuesday and Wednesday of each week and consist of classes in sew- ing from the third grade to the eighth. cooking in the eighth grade, and two classes in High School. A class in Household Management is also held for High School girls desirous of taking the subject.


The sewing outline is being followed as in the pre- vious years ; in the third grade, practice stitches : simple articles made in the fourth and fifth grades. while in the sixth and seventh, more difficult garments are made. The High School class in sewing does more ad- vanced work in cutting and making.


The most simple dishes are taught in the first cook- ing class, the eighth grade. along with the principles of cookery. The two High School classes take up the planning of menus and preparation of more difficult dishes. The girls in the Freshman class of High School served refreshments at a Parent-Teachers' meeting with great success, while the Sophomore class plans to serve a dinner to the School Committee and Superin- tendent.


53


ANNUAL REPORT


The cooking class in the eighth grade has charge of making and serving the cocoa for the school lunch. It has seemed to be very successful, as we serve on an average of forty-five to fifty cups a day at the cost of three cents a cup.


The Domestic Science room is fairly well equipped, with the exception of a few necessities needed-as far as utensils and equipment are concerned. The room it- self is most unattractive, however. The condition could be somewhat remedied by painting the walls and in- stalling an additional radiator to insure a safe tem- perature.


Respectfully submitted, GEORGIA G. W. BURDETT.

REPORT OF THE SCHOOL PHYSICIAN


To the Superintendent of Schools of Plainville :


Dear Sir: In presenting my report for the year 1921 I am glad to report the general health of school chil- dren has been very good during the year.


At the Fall opening of schools I found parents, with very few exceptions, had their children vaccinated be- fore entering the first grades, as the law demands. This is a great improvement over past years. Here- after, all children not being vaccinated before entrance, must present a certificate from a physician, stating the reason why the child should not be vaccinated, also the length of time such condition will prevent the child from being vaccinated.


I find the feeling against vaccination very much less than a few years ago, and that a little sore on the arm is much preferred to the great disfigurement of face, if

ANNUAL REPORT


not death, from the dreaded disease of smallpox. Smallpox has not been prevalent in Massachusetts of late years, but in the week ending December 10, 1921, there were 1003 cases of smallpox reported in the United States. In the recent outbreak in Kansas City. the absence of vaccination was markedly demonstrated where disease broke out in unvaccinated people. some only visitors to the city for a few hours.


In conclusion, I would like to suggest that the ad- dition of a part time, (one day a week) nurse would be a great benefit to the children of the schools, as certain work can be carried out by the nurse that is impossible by the physician or teachers, and allow the physician to keep a closer watch upon certain conditions among the children which tend to retard their progress in school.


Respectfully yours,


December 31, 1921. F. J. CARLEY, M. D.
