Budget
The 1964 budget represents a total increase of $102,466 over last year. An analysis of this budget shows that, in the main, the increase is due to salaries, the addition of nine new teachers, insurance, library funds, opening of new rooms with needed fur- niture, and natural increases in costs of textbooks and supplies brought about by the new addition and increased enrollment.
It is the intent of the School Department to operate the schools as efficiently and economically as possible without sacri- ficing any necessary educational objectives.
Conclusion
In conclusion, may I take the opportunity to express my sincere appreciation to the School Committee, the Board of Se- lectmen, the Highway Department, the Police Department, the Fire Department, the Park Department, all other town officers, a loyal and helpful staff, Parent-Teacher Associations, coopera- tive parents and friends, community organizations, and all others who have given the School Department their wholehearted sup- port in its objective to provide a successful school program for your children.
Respectfully submitted, LEO J. SANTUCCI Superintendent of Schools
