A full account of the progress of the schools, together with the usual school statistics, will be found in the report of the Superintendent of Schools.


In connection with the work accomplished in the Com- mercial Department of the High School, we wish to call your attention to the report of the Principal of the Stetson High School, Mr. Chapin, showing some of the results of this department.


The Committee again recommend the sale of the No. 1 School House property and have inserted an article in the town warrant, recommending that it be sold at public auction, by the Board of Selectmen.


The school property in the various sections of the town is all in good condition.


The Prescott Primary building was painted during the last summer vacation, greatly improving its appearance. The old wooden steps on the East side of this building were replaced by concrete steps and landing, the same being enclosed by an iron railing, thereby insuring greater safety for the children entering and leaving the building. Concrete steps were also provided for the West Corner School.

SEVENTY-NINTH ANNUAL REPORT


It was found necessary to rebuild the chimney at the Prescott Grammar building, the old chimney having previously given trouble during the winter months.


Few changes have been made in the teaching force during the past year. Mrs. Albert E. Powderly, who has been doing substitute work for some time, has been appointed to the position of teacher of the 7th grade at the Prescott Grammar School.


Miss Marian Dunphe has resigned her position as teacher at the West Corner School, her resignation taking effect at the close of the school year in June. Miss Ana- statia McAvoy of Dorchester was appointed to fill the vacancy.


Mr. Joseph Belcher, for many years Principal of the Belcher School, was elected a member of the Legislature at the Annual State Election in November.


In order that he might be able to attend to his duties as a member of the Legislature he was granted a leave of absence for the balance of the school year, ending in June.


Mr. Wm. J. O'Keefe has been appointed to fill the va- cancy thus made.


It will be seen by reading the financial report that there are a number of approved and unpaid bills in the hands of the Treasurer.


A detailed statement of the receipts and expenditures in this Department for the year ending Dec. 31, 1914, is annexed to this report.


The Committee ask the town to raise and appropriate the following sum of money to meet the school expenses for the year ending Dec. 31, 1915.

TOWN OF RANDOLPH


REPORT OF SCHOOL PHYSICIAN


To the Citizens of Randolph:


The general health condition of the pupils has been good the past year. There have been a few contagious diseases in the various buildings, but no wide-spread in- fection has taken place. During the winter and spring, tonsilitis will occur among our children due to wet feet, but this condition cannot be avoided.


Parents are attending to enlarged tonsils and adenoids each year, and improvement in the general well-being of the child follows.


I must say a few words again in regard to head lice. This can be treated at home very easily, and better con- ditions in the school room follow.


I wish to thank our local board of health, our superin- tendent and teachers, for their hearty support during the past year. I am


Respectfully yours,


GEORGE V. HIGGINS, M. D.

SEVENTY-NINTH ANNUAL REPORT


STETSON SCHOOL FUND


Report of Trustees


To the Citizens of Randolph:


There has been some change made in the investment of the fund during the past year.


When the work of remodelling the hall was completed, it was found that there was much needed in the way of hall furnishings. New seats were needed for the gallery and additional seats for the main floor, and several other items of expense, for which no provision was made in the appropriation. To meet these bills the trustees decided to borrow a sufficient sum from the fund, the same to be returned to the fund from the income of the hall in the near future. Had we received the full amount of the Stetson School appropriation $300.00 would be returned to the fund this year.


The fund is invested as follows:


7 Northern Pacific & Great Northern 4 per cent. bonds. $7,000 00


2 American Telephone & Telegraph 4 per cent. bonds.


2,000 00


2 Boston & Maine R. R. 4 per cent. bonds.

SEVENTY-NINTH ANNUAL REPORT


The Work in the Grades


With but one resignation during the year, the work has been conducted with practically the same corps of expe- rienced teachers; the attendance has been excellent and there have been no breaks in the term caused by contagious disease.


The first four years of reading is devoted to drill in phonics, the acquirement of a good vocabulary, and prac- tice in grasping the thought expressed in the sentence. In four years the child should master the art of reading that he may be able to understand the thought expressed by the authors of the text-books he will use in the higher grades.


In the four upper grades there is need of a regular course of supplementary reading, composed of selections from the best English authors; each grade should make a study of at least one of the best poets and one of the leading writers of prose, taking a poem of considerable length, such as Whittier's "Snow Bound" or Longfellow's "Evangeline" and some complete work of the selected writer of prose. Such a course, continued through the years, will give the children an acquaintance with some of the best literature and lead them to acquire a taste for it which will influence all their later reading.


In arithmetic the primary years are devoted to constant drill in the four fundamental processes with a little work in single process problems, leaving the more difficult prob- lems for the higher grades when the pupils have reached the maturity necessary for their solution. The change of textbooks in history and arithmetic which was begun last year, has been completed at a considerable expense, and the new books are now in uniform use throughout the grades.


132


TOWN OF RANDOLPH


The progress in music and drawing is excellent, being conducted by the same supervisors as last year. There is lack of uniformity in the practice of penmanship which may be remedied at small expense by the adoption of one of the free arm movement methods of teaching writing.


The High School


Section two of chapter forty-two of the Revised Laws relative to the maintenance of public high schools, was amended by the last Legislature by the insertion of the following clause:


"Any high school maintained by a town required to be- long to a superintendency union shall be maintained in accordance with standards of organization, equipment and instruction approved from time to time by the Board of Education."


This statute authorizes the Board of Education to re- quire in our high school such standards of instruction and equipment as the Board shall consider necessary to secure efficiency.


Preparatory to carrying out the purpose of this statute, the Board of Education has submitted to superintendents and high school principals a list of proposed requirements which it will be necessary to meet in order to secure ap- proval.


It is not necessary to quote the proposed regulations in full, but I shall mention certain requirements which, under the present organization, our school is not prepared to meet, and which, since we shall be required to comply with them, will call for additional expenditure of money.


1. "The number of teachers shall be such that the ratio of pupils enrolled in the school to teachers does not exceed 25."


133


SEVENTY-NINTH ANNUAL REPORT


With the present enrolment of 148 pupils, six teachers will be needed to comply with this rule.


2. "Not over 50 per cent. of the classes in the school shall contain more than 25 pupils each, and not over 20 per cent. of the classes shall contain more than 30 pupils each. No class of more than 30 pupils shall be instructed by a teacher of less than two years' experience."


(Note-The word class means a group of pupils instructed in one subject, at one time, by one teacher.)


3. "No teacher who instructs five classes shall have a sum of more than 125 pupils in these classes; no teacher who instructs six classes shall have a sum of more than 100 pupils in these classes; and no teacher shall instruct more than six classes, even if each of these classes recites only four periods per week. In order to allow the principal time for directing and supervising the work of the teachers and for conferring with pupils and parents, the maximum number of classes instructed by the principal shall be, in a school of from 100 to 200 pupils, not more than four classes."


This regulation is a valuable one and compliance with it will greatly improve the efficiency of the school, but it will not be possible until the teaching force is increased.


It is not likely that our school will be approved until we offer better facilities for the study of science, and I recommend that when an additional teacher is employed it be one qualified to instruct classes in chemistry, physics and biology, and to give some assistance in the commercial department, that the pupils in typewriting may have more regular instruction and supervision.
