ANNUAL REPORT
REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE
To the Citizens of Attleborough :
We herewith submit the report of our board for the financial year ending December 31, 1910, and we wish to thank the citizens of the town for their loyal support and the generous appropriation for the schools. The Committee has labored harmoniously during the entire year with but one object in view, namely, the welfare and education of our boys and girls.
No radical changes have been made in our department during the year just closed. A beginning in Manual Training has been made by the opening of a school one day a week in the South Main street building under a special instructor for the boys of the eighth grades. We trust that the Town will soon provide a suitable High School building so that this work may be extended to the High School, thereby better fitting our graduates whose school life ends with the High School to go out into the world into competition with the graduates from other cities and towns.
On account of the increase in the number of pupils taking the Commercial Course in the High School, we have been obliged to add another teacher to that depart- ment.
One room has been added to the Hebronville build- ing and the heating and ventilating changed so that all of the pupils below the seventh grade, including the kin- dergarten, are housed under one roof. The pupils of the seventh and eighth grades are still brought to the center. The grounds have been graded, the walks con- creted, and a small strip each side of the walk loamed, which, with the addition of a few shrubs, will greatly im-

prove the appearance without materially decreasing the size of the playgrounds.
At South Attleboro the ventilating and heating sys- tem has been changed and a new heater added, so that the entire building is now properly heated and ven- tilated.
