NINETY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT
REPORT OF THE DRAWING SUPERVISOR
Mr. A. O. Christiansen,
Superintendent of Schools :
I herewith submit my report as Drawing Supervisor in the schools of Randolph.
Very satisfactory results are obtained in the grades and High School.
All grades, one to eight inclusive, are visited once in every two weeks, at which time an individual two-week drawing outline is submitted to the teacher. The grades are studying and executing work in color, designing, illus- trations and nature study.
The classes in the High School are made up of two groups: the freehand drawing and the mechanical. In the former group, special interest is centered on poster work, design, pastel and portrait drawing, figure propor- tions and applied work. The mechanical drawing classes advance from the simple three-view working drawings to more complex plates, dealing with the elements and de- tails of machine design.
I wish to express my sincere appreciation to you and the teachers for your interest and co-operation in my work.
Respectfully submitted,
EILEEN V. DOWD, Supervisor of Drawing

REPORT OF MUSIC SUPERVISOR
Mr. A. O. Christiansen,
Superintendent of Schools:
The interest in music has been well maintained during the past year. Good progress has been made and much ground has been covered with, a thoroughness that is productive of good results.
Music taught in our schools is not limited to the teach- ing of song-singing; the purpose is to teach the pupils in such a manner that upon the completion of the Grammar School course, they will fully understand the principles of this subject, namely, the knowledge of keys, ability to read songs at sight, to sing in time and in tune, and to be able to carry parts accurately in two, three and four-part music.
The so-called "monotone," or the child who cannot carry a tune, or who cannot co-ordinate the ear, eye and voice correctly, must receive special attention, the same as a backward pupil in any other subject. Individual sing- ing is of untold value in correcting this fault. It also helps to establish self-control and consciousness of ability to do individually what the class has accomplished as a whole.
The opportunity offered today in the public schools for the study of music develops the kind of knowledge and ability that motivates directly into the community.

An orchestra has been organized from the pupils of the

terest is manifested among the members. It is hoped that with an increase in membership, a larger and better orchestra may develop.
Throughout the schools our girls and boys enter into ยท the lessons and sing as though they realy enjoy it. Un- doubtedly this response is due to the splendid school spirit and the hearty co-operation of the teachers and Superin- tendent.

ROSE G. HAND, Supervisor of Music
REPORT OF THE SCHOOL NURSE
Mr. A. O. Christiansen,
Superintendent of Schools :
The X-ray Clinic at the Stetson High School was the second given in the State last year. At that clinic, with the co-operation of parents, we enrolled a total of 156 pupils.
To stimulate interest and activity in health observ- ances last year, teachers very successfully carried out various projects and programs in the form of health plays, posters, food displays, diaries and booklets.
Whatever we may claim as a step forward in our health program in Randolph, acknowledgement must be made here of the interest and co-operation of the Ladies' Li- brary Association for the use of their rooms; also the
92

Women's Catholic Club, and the Community Welfare Committee, for their contribution of $125 for free distri- bution of milk among needy children. Thanks and appre- ciation for assistance and constant interest in our health work are likewise extended to you, teachers and pupils.
All pupils weighed and measured.

HIGH SCHOOL EDUCATION
The need of a High School education today is rarely disputed. It isn't so much the need we question, as the value and worth of such an education. Several attempts in the past have been made by statisticians to evaluate its instruction to the individual in terms of dollars and cents ; its cultural investment, its useful training for citi- zenship, or its broader function, namely that of self-ad- justment to the real problems of living. These are indeed excellent attainments, but do we really attain them? For a reply to that question it may be given, or admitted, that we do so in part only. Such seems to be the result of our self-analysis. The fault points to no one in particular, but rather is a trait or tendency of our day to look upon a High School education as a sort of a finishing place where courses and activities are so many and so thickly coated with frosting that pupils will like them without work. The High School, indeed, is the people's school, and is in truth a finishing school, but it costs money ; and because of that cost it is fair to suppose that pupils are sent there for work, and that it is not inconsistent on our part to expect work.
Problems and complexities immediately arise as we begin to enumerate the factors which go to make up a High School course of study. In such a study, however, it is right that we keep in mind first the student body, its needs and capabilities; the service to the community ; the ability of that community to pay for education; and the last, as it should be, the demands of colleges and higher institutions of learning. With our limited material equip- ment, we point with pride to pupils who have successfully
95
1
NINETY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT
completed our High School courses. They are pupils who worked. There are others, again, whose four years' experience in school have netted them little of real value. For these we are sorry.
For a High School the size of ours, the task of supply- ing all the material needs of our pupils is out of the ques- tion. At our best we cannot hope to compete with city schools on such a basis. Perhaps it is not necessary. We can and will compete, however, in the quality of students turned out. To think, is confined to no one school or class; nor is it necessarily a sequence depending upon the num- ber of courses offered. To teach how to study-the very foundation and attainment of all knowledge-knows no monopoly, but is more at home in a school the size of Stetson High School than in a city school of some two thousand pupils. If we teach with such objectives in mind, the value of an education needs no definition. There is more need of real study today than more courses to be studied. Parents and teachers have a joint responsibility here. The child must be taught to have a right attitude towards, and a proper respect for study. There must be co-operation of the best sort; instruction and leadership of the best kind; punctuality and respect for the school day, to the end that the child shall learn how to study, how to see clearly that it pays to study, and that it pays to think.
HIGH SCHOOL COURSES OF STUDY
The table below represents the three courses of study offered at the High School, namely, Commercial, General and College Preparatory. Under these courses the re-
96
TOWN OF RANDOLPH, MASS.
quired, elective and optional subjects are listed, with their number of recitations each week, number of weeks in the year, and the diploma credit given each subject. A total of 82 credits will meet the requirements for graduation.
In the words of the Principal, these courses are the best selections we can give with our somewhat limited oppor- tunities. Each pupil is required to maintain four full subjects daily, or a total of 21 periods of recitation a week, including physical education. This in turn will give him a total of four units for the year, or twenty-one credits, or, sixteen units or eighty-four credits for the four years.
A rank of C, (65 to 70 per cent), will satisfy the require- ments for promotion and graduation, although at least B, (80 to 90 per cent), is required for certification to normal school or college.
All pupils are required to fill out blanks, naming the course of study which they elect to pursue. These blanks, in turn, are countersigned by the parents and given to the Principal. A change in the course, or the dropping of a subject is a serious handicap to the pupil after school has been in session for weeks. Only with the consent of the Principal, parents and Superintendent, can such a change be made.

PROMOTIONS
The once-a-year promotion for all pupils is one of those customs handed down from the days of pure guessing. The assumption must have been that all children were cast from the same mold and moved in rhythm and equal- ity of attainment throughout the different grades. That was no more true in those days than it is today. As chil- dren differ in features and temperment, so do they differ in educational attainments, though little attention has been given to it.
The time is not far distant when schools must take account of stock and realize that there is a close correla- tion between the cost of public school education and the finished product, namely, the movement of pupils from grade to grade and the final output, graduates. There are strong indications that the system of promotion needs revision, and that it might have something to do with the soaring cost of education.
For the last three years this phase of our school prob- lem has received careful consideration. Although observ- ing the old method of promotion, as a whole we have found, as we expected, great differences of ability among pupils, by means of tests and special work. To deny these capable children the privilege or the right to move on is to deny them the very right which is theirs as pupils in a public institution. We sin, as it were, against the excep- tional child, by holding him back for a mass promotion. No less is the sin of waste, of time and of public money.
It is strongly recommended, therefore, that a more flexible system of promotion be observed, so that the
101
NINETY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT
progress and attainment of all our pupils may be more justly and properly carried out and evaluated.
In closing my report I am mindful of your deep interest in the welfare of our schools, and of teachers, parents and pupils who have worked together for one common good.
Respectfully submitted, A. O. CHRISTIANSEN, Superintendent of Schools

HONOR ROLL FOR PERFECT ATTENDANCE
It has been the custom for years to publish in the Town Report the names of pupils who have successfully com- pleted one or both school terms without an absence, tardy or dismissal record against them. It is a single honor of no small importance. Punctuality and strict observance of school business are excellent traits in our pupils, and are here evaluated as they will be in the business world outside. Many a good name could have been added to this list had not sickness intervened and robbed the child of his prized goal.
