ANNUAL REPORT


. OF THE


SCHOOL COMMITTEE,


OF THE


TOWN OF SOUTH SCITUATE,


FOR THE YEAR 1882.


REPORT


The following annual report of the School Committee of South Scituate is respectfully submitted :


The Committee was organized by the choice of Hon. E. T. Fogg as chairman, and Mrs. E. T. Jacobs as secretary.


The maximum salary of the Primary teachers was fixed at $5.50 per week. Otherwise salaries remained as the previous year. Sub- sequently, owing to the establishment of a Grammar School in District No. 5, which provides for the higher classes of District No. 6, the salary of the teacher in No. 6 was fixed at six dollars ; this variation from the maximum Primary School salary being caused by retaining in No. 6 the lowest Grammar School class.


The length of the schools was fixed at thirty-seven weeks for the year.


During the summer vacation the school-room in District No. 3 was refurnished with new seats and desks, for which a special appropriation of $100 was made at the last annual town meeting. The expenses of refurnishing were as follows : -


Cost of desks delivered .


$72 00


Cost of setting


5 62


$77 62


leaving a balance of $22.38 unexpended.


The enlargement of the school-house in District No. 5 was com- mitted by the town to a special committee. This was also done during the summer vacation, causing a delay in commencing the fall term of only three weeks, which will be made up by shortening the fall and spring vacations.


The statement of the expenditure of the sum appropriated for the above purpose will be found in the Selectmen's Report, to which we refer. All other expenses incurred by work on school-houses are for ordinary repairs, which are also embodied in the Selectmen's Report.


48


For the expenditure of the school appropriation, the school-book account and estimates, we would refer to the statement appended to this report.


The teachers who were in charge of the several schools at the time of the last annual report continued to the end of the winter term.


The condition of the school premises in District No. 5 was such that the school was closed nearly two weeks before the intended end of the winter term.


All other schools passed the annual examination creditably.


For the spring term, Mr. J. J. Prentiss was elected teacher of Grammar School in District No. 1 ; Miss Bella Nye in District No. 4, and Miss Martha Brooks in District No. 5. In all other schools the previous teachers were re-elected. At the commencement of the fall term Miss Martha Brooks was elected teacher of Grammar School in District No. 5, and Miss Etta Flint, who had at times previously acted as assistant, was elected teacher of the Primary School. The vacancy occurring in the Grammar School, District No. 7, by the resignation of Miss Grace Brown, was filled by the transfer of Mr. Frank Jones from No. 6, and Miss Mary Sparrell was elected to fill the vacancy thus caused. The winter term now in progress is under charge of the same teachers.


With regard to the matter of attendance, so often and wisely referred to by school committees generally, we would call your attention to the excellent remarks made in the last report. We cannot see that there is any material change. About the same per- centage of attendance is shown by the abstract of attendance. The abstract this year shows the difference between the number enrolled and the average number belonging, while the per cent. of attend- ance is based upon the average number belonging. It is somewhat remarkable how nearly alike are the averages for the two years when reduced to per cent. While individual schools may vary, the average for all the schools for the whole year varies very little.


We wish we were able to speak in such a manner as to arouse those parents who are most culpable in this matter, to a full appre- ciation of the wrong they are doing their children, whom natural instinct. it would seem, ought to cause them to care for, to the best of their ability, and for whom, we should suppose, they would desire to gain every advantage that may be honorably obtained. If parents


49


feel that it is impossible for them to send their children to school all the time, they should make a business of it when they do send them, and see that they are there as constantly as health will per- mit. By examining the registers you will find some pupils have been only three days during a term, several that have been nine or twelve, others about half the time, and those days not consecutive.


What wonder that the child becomes discouraged and acquires a dislike for school duties when he finds how vain are all his endeav- ors to keep pace with his class. When he finds, too, that human nature in the teacher manifests itself in impatience at the total lack of intelligent comprehension of those things that the remainder of the class explain and perform with ease.


It is common for Committees to say that the schools are making commendable progress, that continued advance is made, etc., until the average listener or reader begins to think that if he were to visit a school of the present time, he would find the pupils to be so learned that they might be truly called prodigies of learning.


People are often thus led to expect children of twelve to fifteen years of age to excel them in a practical knowledge of matters per- taining to their particular pursuits. We are apt to forget that the common school life of a child is only about nine years, and during that time they have first to learn to read that they may be enabled to gain further knowledge. They are also expected to lay a firm and broad foundation that they may build thereupon any super- structure that the commoner businesses of life require. Why, then, do you expect them to be proficient in the work that you have been specially devoting yourself to for years? Were the tables turned and the pupils to propound questions to the man, we are inclined to think that failures would be quite as common and certainly more embarrassing.


Our schools, too, receive a constant influx of new pupils, raw material we might call it, which is to be prepared and permeated with the germs of development, that it may in due time unfold, as nearly as is possible, into the stature of perfect men and women. The teacher's work is constantly repeating itself ; they are not per- mitted to mould the raw material into finished productions ; they are only the primary workmen, and their work seems hardly begun ere the material is withdrawn from their hands.


50


The progress of our schools, then, is not to be judged of by a hasty glance or by the ability to answer an occasional question, but rather by a series of continued observations and actual comparisons with work done heretofore, and thus determining whether the pupils are gaining more ability to successfully meet and conquer the prob- lems of actual life that are so soon to be presented to them ; whether they are gaining greater powers of insight than pupils of a corresponding age formerly.


Judging by this standard, we believe our schools are making pro- gress, that pupils now go from our schools with a greater power of grasping and overcoming difficulties than in times past. It is true, individual cases of unusual ability there were ; individual cases of excessive dullness now. But we are speaking generally, and do not hesitate to say that our pupils as a whole emerge from our schools more cultured and self-reliant than formerly.


We bespeak, then, for your schools a just and liberal spirit. As water cannot rise above its fountain head, so our schools cannot be better than the public sentiment that sustains them. Their contin- ued progress is in your hands. Aid them with your best endeavors to improve and they will respond to your efforts in increased activity and usefulness, and the result will be a generous reward for your best efforts.

With regard to the appended abstract of registers, the Commit- tee supposed that the registers containing te hrecord of the last winter term could be found at the Selectmen's office. When inquired for they were not to be found, and the time at the disposal of the Committee was then too short to ascertain where they were, in season to be entered in the abstract. Therefore only the spring and fall terms appear in the table.

FOR THE

EMBRACING THOSE OF THE


SELECTMEN, ASSESSORS, OVERSEERS OF THE POOR, TREASURER, SURVEYORS OF HIGHWAYS, TOWN CLERK AND SCHOOL COMMITTEE.


HINGHAM: FRED H. MILLER, Printer. 1884.


REPORT OF THE SELECTMEN.


The selectmen submit for your consideration the thirty-fourth annual report of the financial condition of the town January 1, 1884.


At the annual meeting held in March last, it was voted to print a report of the financial standing of the town, together with the names of all tax-payers and the amount of taxes, also the names and amount of delinquent tax-payers, also a detailed report of Surveyors of Highways and the School Committee.


REMOVING SNOW.


There has been paid for removing snow $321.78. At the annual meeting thirty cents per hour was voted to be paid, an increase of five cents from the previous year. As it would be a repetition of names, some having been paid each price per hour, it is thought best to print only the total amount paid to each person.


REPAIRS OF HIGHWAYS.


The several Surveyors were instructed to have all bills for labor presented in detail, and as some of the work was done by the hour, some working eight hours a day, and others nine hours, or more, we have devoted considerable time in arranging the several ac- counts, and trust that they may prove satisfactory. By a vote of the town $1,700 was placed in the Surveyors' hands and $300 in the hands of the Selectmen. From some cause the Surveyors have all, or nearly all, exceeded their several amounts.


In District No. 7 the repairs of Elm street were referred to the Selectmen, and the extra amount expended in this district was done with their consent. The same may be said of Districts No. 1 and No. 6. The amounts overworked, however, are small, with the


4


exception of Nos. 2 and 5. All bills, however, have been paid, as the labor had been actually performed, and we hope in the fu- ture, should any district need more money to complete any neces- sary repairs, that the Surveyors should consult the Selectmen in regard to the same. For the extra repairs of highways and remov- ing obstructions, we refer you to the body of the report.


POND STREET.


The repairs on this street have been completed at an expense of $41.00. Total cost of the work, $889.74. The County Commis- sioners have allowed $400.00 as part payment for the cost of the same.


WINTER, CROSS AND PARKER STREETS.


There has been expended for rebuilding sections of these streets, $346.17. The town appropriated $600.00 and instructed the Select- men to cause the work to be done. The repairs are now nearly completed, and the balance of the appropriation will, we think, be sufficient to complete the work the ensuing year.


ROAD MACHINE.


The town, after considering the question of purchasing a road machine. referred the matter to the Selectmen, who, after an inves- tigation of the merits of the same, purchased one of the Pennock machines, and although it was received late in the season for spring work. it was used in nearly all the districts, and proved, we think, a valuable acquisition for repairs of our roads.


CENTRAL STREET.


The County Commissioners have the past year, under petition of E. T. Fogg and others, widened and new located a section of Cen- tral street from a point near the house of L. W. Flint to that of James H. Pinkham. The street in this section is in places very narrow. crooked and dangerous to public travel. The town will be asked at its next annual meeting to appropriate a sum of money to do the necessary work.


5


ABATEMENT OF TAXES AND COLLECTION OF THE SAME.


Taxes have been abated or given up the past year amounting to $160.50. Our method of collecting taxes does not seem to us to be the best that could be devised. As will be seen, a large part of the taxes abated are of those who pay only a poll-tax, or in addition to the same, a small personal tax. We think these taxes should, if possible, be collected the year that the assessment is made, as after that time some of the parties have removed from town, or their personal property has disappeared, and the Assessors are called upon to give up their taxes ; and we hope the town will at its annual meeting consider the question of collection of taxes. The Collector has caused to be sold real estate the past year for the non-payment of taxes-property standing in the name of Dimmock Bowker heirs, I. B. Damon heirs, Nathaniel Chamberlain heirs, and Charles A. Curtis, at an expense of $110.10. The property was purchased by the town and is reckoned as an asset in the financial standing of the same. The amount of taxes and interest being $340.54, to which add expense and of recording 67 deeds, make the total $517.64. A large part of the same, no doubt, will be refunded to the town the ensuing year.


SUPPORT OF POOR.


The almshouse has continued the past year under the charge of Mr. Goodwin and wife, and they have given good satisfaction. There were fewer inmates than in the previous year. The board and clothing of inmates at Taunton hospital is very expensive, and we think that necessary arrangements should be made to keep the harmless insane here, as it can be done at less expense to the town, and the inmates be as well cared for.
