REPORT OF THE SCHOOL COMMITTEE.
The School Committee of Duxbury respectfully sub- mit the following report for the year 1889-90 :-.
Two events of great importance, educationally, have occurred during the past year, the establishment of a free public library, through the generosity of Mrs. George W. Wright and the late Henry Winsor of Philadelphia, and the employment of a Superintendent of Schools, the latter of which comes within the province of this report.
The Town having voted at its last annual meeting to unite with the towns of Marshfield and Scituate for the employment of a Superintendent of Schools under the provisions of chapter 431 of the acts of 1888, the School Committees of the three towns met in joint convention early in April last, and organized with the choice of Col. H. A. Oakman of Marshfield for Chairman, and Mr. C. F. Jacobs of Duxbury for Secretary. After some time, having failed to secure two men who had been highly recommended, the Committee elected Mr. Frank W. Sweet of Portsmouth, N. H., who had supervised schools in that city. Mr. Sweet entered upon his duties May 15th, and it was expected that, after having spent the remaining portion of the Spring term in observing the needs of the schools, he would be prepared to enter into
4
4
the work at once, when the Fall term commenced in September. Immediately before the beginning of the Fall term, Mr. Sweet resigned to accept a similar position in Bridgewater. The vacancy was at once filled by the election of Mr. Edwin H. Watson, a graduate of Dart- mouth College, and for five years principal of the High School and Superintendent of Schools in Beaver, Pa. Mr. Watson's report, giving a summary of work accom- plished or begun and recommendations, will be found appended to the report of the Committee. The first and most imperative need of the schools being a definite course of study, Mr. Watson's first work was the prepa- ration of such a course and the grading of the schools. This having been accomplished, the Superintendent is now in a position to give the portion of his time to which the Town is entitled, to the work of the school-room. The results of a vast amount of preliminary work not being at once apparent, some persons have been disposed to ask what improvement has been made, and if a Super- intendent, in so large a district, can give time enough to the schools to make it advisable to continue the plan. The Committee are confident that a long step has been taken in the right direction and that, with the continua- tion of the present plan, the schools must be decidedly improved.
It was decided by the joint committee that the salary of a Superintendent should be paid by the Town in an- ticipation of the amount to be paid by the State, rather than oblige him to wait a year for nearly one-half of his salary, and it was also decided that his salary should be
5
paid in ten equal instalments, one on the last day of each calendar month, except July and August. Accordingly it was decided that Marshfield and Duxbury should each pay $150.00 and Scituate $200.00 in addition to the sums appropriated, such additions being refunded after May 15, 1890.
The following table shows the actual cost of supervi- sion for the time covered by this report, during which time the schools have been in session thirty-three weeks : Committee bills, deducting balance for 1888 9. $93 75

It will be seen from the above that the actual cost has been $256.25. The following, selected at random, give an idea of the expense, compared with former years :

1880-1 247 77
1883-4. 254 75
It should be borne in mind that, in addition to the amount paid by the State for the salary of a Superin- tendent, the Town will also receive its share of the sum of $500.00 to be divided among the three towns forming the district.
Mr. C. F. Jacobs, who has served very acceptably as a member of the committee for a year and a half, resigned
6
during the Summer and the vacancy was filled by the election of Miss Emma S. Stetson, Mr. George H. Weath- erbee becoming Secretary of the joint committee.
Since the death of Mr. Josiah Peterson, who had served the Town as book agent in a very efficient manner for a number of years, the books and supplies have re- mained at the same place, and the Superintendent has acted as book agent without extra expense to the Town.
During the year past, besides ordinary repairs, the Ashdod and Crooked Lane School-houses have been painted, and the Hall's Corner School-house has been shingled. Few changes of teachers have been made and no changes in text-books, except that the Franklin Arith metics have been adopted in place of MacVicar's, a,much needed change.
The same arrangement with the trustees of Partridge Academy has been continued. Mr. C. F. Jacobs, who had been principal for nearly seven years, resigned at the close of the school year in June, and the vacancy was filled by the election of Mr. George R. Pinkham. During the time of service as principal of the Academy, Mr. Jacobs commanded the respect and confidence of the public to an unusual degree, and with his departure for Europe to enter upon an advanced course of study, the Town lost a faithful teacher and an excellent citizen.
The next entrance examination for admission to the Academy will take place Monday, June 30, 1890, at 9 A. M., the requisites for admission being the same as heretofore.

In closing, the Committee earnestly recommend a continuation of the present plan for supervision, and request the following appropriations :

Support of schools. $3,000 00
Repairs of school-houses 200 00
Salary of Superintendent 250 00

SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT.
TO THE SCHOOL COMMITTEE OF THE TOWN OF DUXBURY :
In accordance with instructions, your Superintendent herewith presents his annual report for that part of the school year during which he has had charge of the schools of the Town.
COURSE OF STUDY.
A course of study was prepared at the beginning of the Fall term, comprising seven years, below the regular high school work. The schools have been graded according to this plan, and are now working under it.
It is proposed, as soon as practicable, to extend the time for this work to eight years, thereby insuring more thorough and better work in all branches.
No study occupies more time in the course than its practical value to the pupil will warrant.
Pupils, after studying Grammar for the greater part of their school life, as a rule, violate constantly the common law of Grammar in conversation and writing.
To remedy this, as well as to cultivate an increased power to write and speak with ease and correctness, a scheme of language study has been adopted.
9
In this, as in all other branches of study, the full effect cannot be felt for a few years. Its development must be awaited with patience and a spirit of fairness. Some advantages have been already derived, and will be appar- ent to the careful observer.
Writing and Drawing are receiving special attention.
Mr. Henry T. Bailey, State Agent of Drawing, is giving instructions to the teachers in Drawing free of cost to the Town. The first lesson was given February seventh.
The Normal Music Course has been introduced into the schools. It was impossible to arrange with the publishers for an instructor at the last teachers' meeting. Assur- ance has been given, however, that instruction will be furnished to the teachers, free of cost to the Town, until the work is thoroughly understood.
The advantage of pupils in pursuing this will be great ; not merely in giving them a fair knowledge of music, but in developing the chest and lungs, and in giving a control of the voice which will aid greatly in obtaining proper expression in reading.
An outline has also been prepared for the teachers, specifying the amount of work to be accomplished in each class and for each term.
It is clearly the best policy on the part of the Town to insist that the schools shall be made as efficient as any, and that the instruction given shall be according to methods approved by the best educators. Good schools are always an inducement to people to settle permanently in a place.
The object of any system of education should be not
10
merely to fill pupils with a certain amount of knowledge in such a way as shall best develop the mind and make good thinkers and reasoners.
PHYSICAL CULTURE.
Simple exercises are practiced in the schools daily, which will tend to develop the body and keep it in a healthy state. This is as much a work for the schools as anything else. Round-shouldered, narrow-chested chil- dren cannot make healthy men and women.
Nothing difficult is attempted or anything that any child cannot easily follow.
ATTENDANCE.
Considering the great amount of sickness this Winter, the attendance has been good.
Parents have co-operated with the teachers readily in most cases. Much more can be done by them. No child should be allowed to remain away from school for trifling reasons. Sickness or some very unusual occurrence should be the only excuse. Absence from school entails a great loss to the pupil by causing him to drop behind his grade, even if absent for only one session. It also is an hindrance to the whole class.
It is hoped that parents will re-double their efforts in this direction by visiting the schools frequently, and by examining the cards issued monthly, and inquiring into any discrepancies which may occur.
Teachers can also aid in this direction by using every means to make the school-room attractive, and by employ-
11
ing every method possible to make the school work inter- esting.
TEACHERS.
Your Superintendent wishes to express his thanks to the teachers for their earnest efforts to aid him in the improvement of the schools.
Meetings have been held from time to time, at which methods have been discussed and the general welfare of the schools carefully considered. Special training for the profession, on the part of the teacher, is undoubtedly of lasting advantage to both teachers and pupils.
Natural aptness for the work of teaching is as necessary as in any other profession, trade or business. If, how- ever, a person has the requisite amount of energy, deter- mination and enterprise, lack of special training may, to a great extent, be overcome.
SCHOOL PROPERTY.
School books and other supplies are Town property They should be carefully guarded. Teachers should keep a strict watch over them. Any loss of or injury to them should be regularly reported, and should be paid for, the same as for injury to other Town property.
Under the free text-book law, the cost to the patrons of the schools for supplies for their children is very light, and they should be willing to make good any such losses which may occur through negligence or maliciousness.
As fast as the Town can afford it, the old desks, where used, should be replaced by those better adapted to the.
12
shape of the child's body. Improperly constructed seats are responsible many times for deformities in children, especially for round shoulders, crooked spines and narrow chests.
The blackboards in many of the schools need attention. This defect can be remedied at a comparatively small cost, and as pupils need to use them a great deal, they should be repaired at once.
The High Street school-house is sadly in need of repairs, as is one or two of the out-houses.
VENTILATION.
Good air is as necessary as good light. In a room where the air is breathed over, the health of the pupils is endangered. A proper supply of pure air is also necessary to the moral welfare of the children, nor can good work be accomplished where the brain is subjected to the noxious influence of a vitiated atmosphere.
It is recommended that the subject of proper ventila- tion receive careful attention, and every means possible used to secure the desired results. No great expense is necessary.
CONCLUSION.
In conclusion, much has been done for the advance- ment of the schools. The full benefit of a large part of this work cannot now be felt. Children must be subject, in their instruction, for a few years, to the methods now recognized as the best before the great advantages to be gained by systematic training can be fully realized. No
15
one can fully learn a trade, profession or business in a year. There must be an initiatory period.
Progress in any direction is, necessarily, slow if it is to be sure and lasting. History confirms this. Common experience teaches it. The work of the school is to make its pupils good, close observers, thinkers, and reasoners, fully as much as it is to supply them with knowledge. A parrot can be taught to talk. Children should be trained to think as well.
If the line of work begun in the schools is faithfully pursued, under proper supervision for a few years, there is not the shadow of a doubt that all closely observant and fair-minded men will pronounce the result highly beneficial.
