On Monday evening, June 18, at Sargent Hall, a class of 26 pupils, consisting of 11 boys and 15 girls (exactly as in 1943 and 1944) graduated from the eighth grade. The honor pupils were Ethel Dwinnells, Priscilla Emery, Ken- neth Floyd, Sheila Flynn, Virginia Gleed, Corinne Hall, Nancy Harrison, Virginia Heath, Dorothy Jerome, and Manford Palmer. Diplomas were presented by Mrs. Edgar R. Tucker. The program was a patriotic feature entitled "The Guiding Light." The class motto was "Our Guiding Light-Education."

Three of the boys, Kenneth Blackden, Charles Davis, and Robert Saulnier, were in active service; the diplomas were received by the parents. The valedictory was by Barbara Hall and the salutatory by Margery Clark. The diplomas were presented by Mr. Willard T. Kelly. High school honors and awards will be found in the principal's report.
Although eighteen high school graduates is less than the average number of recent years, it indicates, when compared to the year preceding, a swing back to more nearly normal conditions.

REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF ART
Design, color and composition have been studied by all the grades in the Merrimac Schools. It is hoped that through this knowledge the student will become more sen- sitive to and appreciative of everything that is beautiful and well designed.
The techniques of water color, poster paints, crayon, and cut paper are practiced that the child may become better acquainted with the language of this graphic art.
Grades Seven and Eight have designed book jackets and booklets for book week, illustrations, and effective Christmas greeting cards. Grades Five and Six have shown much originality in their illustrations, designs and cut pa- per work. Animal and figure drawing has been studied by the Fourth Grade. Color, perspective and composition entered into the Indian mural made by the Third Grade. Grade Two made a colorful Indian village for their sand table. Both Grades One and Two have had opportunity to express their personal experiences freely in different medi- ums. They have learned to draw simple objects by using the basic shapes.
In the Port School some handwork has been done, and a mural has been started, designed wholly by basic shapes.
Color design and figure drawing has been studied by the freehand drawing students of Merrimac High School. Student poses were enjoyed by this group. The Fashion Design students have sketched many original designs, and are planning a fashion layout. In crafts, pins and book- ends have been made from wood. Some work in clay has
14
MERRIMAC SCHOOL REPORT
been done. The Senior Mechanical Drawing Class is de- signing floor plans for a house of their own creation.

REPORT OF SUPERVISOR OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION IN THE ELEMENTARY AND JUNIOR HIGH GRADES AND THE PORT SCHOOL
Physical Education like any other subject is taught. on Grade Level. In the first grade the children are intro- duced to physical education through simple games and. dances. As the child at this age has been sheltered and alone more or less in play, we want him to be able to play fairly and happily with children his own age. The children. learn rhythm by following the beat of a tom-tom drum. The rhythm is changed from time to time and they soon learn to recognize one beat from another. The piano and rec- ords may also be used.
Story plays are an important part of the first grade. program. These are daily activities exaggerated a great deal in movement. Children like these bcause they are fa- milar activities. Making a Jack-O-Lantern or Playing in. The Snow may be used.
In the second grade the games are more team-like in. form. The activity is a little more strenuous than in grade. one. The children are given responsibility in their games: through captains and leaders. As the American Indian and His Life is a unit used in the second grade an Indian Dance, with the accompaniment of the tom-tom drum, is taught.
In grades three and four the children are given more difficult games involving more rules and a great deal of vigorous activity. The boys and girls are often separated at this grade level so they may play games which are dis- tinct favorites of each sex. Posture is emphasized begin- ning in grade three and four so formal marching is taught. In these grades mimetic exercises are substituted for form- al exercises. Mimetic exercises are imitative movements.
15
MERRIMAC SCHOOL REPORT
of well known activities without the usual equipment. They are very closely related to story plays except that they are more formal and more attention is paid to the way in which the exercises are performed. We often mimic sailors and soldiers thus performing the activities these individuals must do.
In the fifth and sixth grades the boys and girls are separated a great deal. The games in these grades are all team-like in nature, Competition is stressed at this level. Re- lays are popular with both boys and girls. Last fall a soccer team composed of sixth grade boys was organized. Two games were played with West Newbury.
The girls had soft ball, newcomb and volley ball as fall sports.
In the Junior High Grades the boys and girls are sep- arated. The boys enjoyed football and soccer as fall sports. Baseball was also played and will be continued this spring. A football team was organized and one game was played with the seventh and eighth grades of Salisbury. The girls enjoyed soft ball and volley ball as fall sports. These will be continued in the spring.
This winter Modern Dancing will be introduced. The girls will learn to walk, run, skip, jump, and leap to the beat of a tom-tom. As the girls progress they will be able to form simple dance patterns using dynamics, dimension, direction and focus.
Physical education, as one phase of education, has a distinct contribution to make toward the personal-social growth and development of the child; it represents a phase of the educational program providing unique situations and experiences through which social behavior, rather than anti-social behavior, can be learned and practiced.

MERRIMAC SCHOOL REPORT
REPORT OF HIGH SCHOOL PRINCIPAL
Dr. John C. Page, Superintendent of Schools, and Members of the School Committee:
On October 1, 1945, there were 91 pupils enrolled in the high school, 37 boys and 54 girls.
The new principal wishes to take this opportunity to express his appreciation for the complete and systematic condition in which his predecessor, Mr. Chauncey D. Mac- Kay, left the records of the school. School was thus opened in September without any confusion of details in spite of the suddenness of certain events. ยท
A course in pre-induction training had been planned to start in September, but events changed these plans. Since the high school should be more concerned with education than with training, this course was dropped shortly after the opening of school. In its place two half-courses have been offered: one in Latin-American history, and one for the second half-year in the history of the Far East. This course is open to all students whereas the training course was for boys in the senior and junior classes only. A second year in Spanish was also offered this year to accompany the first-year course which was offered for the first time last year. In conformity with the best practices throughout the state, a student must take two years of a language in order to obtain graduation credit for either year.
The facilities for lunches at the high school are ex- tremely limited ; but on March 5, 1945, under the Commun- ity School Lunch Program sponsored by the United States Department of Agriculture, the school was able to offer to the students milk at two cents per half-pint bottle. This program has continued through the present school year. If facilities were available, a more complete luncheon could be served.
On December 14, 1945, the senior class presented the comedy "Busy As a Beaver." Under the capable direc- tion of Miss Dorothy Kyros, head of the language depart-
17
MERRIMAC SCHOOL REPORT
ment, the play was a success both dramatically and finan- cially.
Both the boys' and girls' basketball teams have new coaches this year. Miss Isabelle M. Phelan, the English teacher, who has had valuable experience in the sport at Jackson College, is doing a splendid job with the girls' team. The boys are coached this season by a volunteer citizen, Mr. James Tobin. Mr. Tobin deserves a great deal of credit for the time and energy he devotes to the boys. His knowledge of the game and ability to lead boys makes him invaluable.
To replace the Balfour Award the high school has adopted certificates of the National Honor Society. The Student Council paid the required registration fee. By the adoption of these awards the qualities of scholarship, good citizenship, and leadership of a larger number of students can be recognized.
Miss Beulah R. Hutchins won one of the prizes in the patriotic essay contest sponsored by Lorraine Post Auxil- iary, V. F. W., and the Haverhill Gazette.
The girls of the newly formed Tri-Hi-Y club cleaned, painted, and redecorated the girls' section of the basement. This was a very worth-while project, and at the writing of this report several others are being planned. Miss Sophie Gagalis, the social-studies teacher, is the advisor of the club this year. Mr. Chase is the director of the Hi-Y club, which sent three members to the Two-State Older Boys' Conference at Pawtucket, R. I., on December 1, and 2, 1945.
A fund for the purchase of a 16mm sound movie pro- jector has been accumulating for the past few years. The fund is now nearly large enough, and it is expected that shortly these machines will be on the market once more. The training programs of the armed forces have demon- strated beyond any possible doubt the great educational possibilities of this type of visual aid. It is therefore hoped
18
MERRIMAC SCHOOL REPORT
that the high school may soon be able to present educa- tional and amusement programs on its own projector.
There were eighteen graduating members of the class of 1945. The class parts were awarded as follows:

I appreciate the sincere cooperation of Dr. Page and the Merrimac School Committee.
