In the hope that both teachers and parents will become more interested in the attendance of their respective schools the fol- lowing list is given in which the schools are ranked according to their percentages of attendance :

The school population is slightly less than it was six years ago. Although the rooms at the Village Grammar school each have as many pupils as it is desirable for one teacher to instruct, there seems to be no danger of over-crowded rooms anywhere in town. Most of our schools are small, there being but 243 pupils enrolled in the 10 rooms below the high, an average of slightly over 24 pupils to a room.


At the close of the school year in June, the two teachers at Tarkiln, Miss Smith and Miss Talbot, resigned to accept better paying positions elsewhere. The work of both these teachers had been exceptionally good and it was with much regret that their resignations were received. Miss Wheelock also resigned her position at North Duxbury at this time. During the summer these positions were filled by the election of Miss Eileen Ray Marshall to the Tarkiln Grammar, Miss M. G. MacGregor to Tarkiln Primary and Miss Bernice Belknap to the primary at North Duxbury. Fortunately all these teachers seem to be doing good work and the schools seems not to have lost by the change.


The Grammar schools have recently been supplied with some excellent books of reference which are really much used by the pupils and are of much benefit. Each of these schools needs a small library composed of books on science, on the practical arts, history readers, geography readers and a few children's classics. The dull pupil receives more than his share of atten- tion while our bright pupils could do more than is required and would improve themselves without the aid of the teacher if suitable books were at hand. Also the average pupil could be stimulated to better work if well prepared lessons gave him

access to some book that appealed to him in the school library.


In closing this report it gives me joy to be able to say that the teachers are one and all working earnestly and in harmony and that in consequence the schools are doing work that is a credit to the town.


The Supervisor of Music is putting much well directed energy into her work and I feel that better work is being done in music than for some years past at least.


The work of the Supervisor of Drawing speaks for itself. The rapid improvement of the pupils in this branch of work is a sur- prise to all who have observed it.


It is with a feeling that the present healthy condition of the schools of Duxbury is due in no small degree to the thoughtful care, timely suggestions and wise encouragement of the members of the School Board that this report is respectfully submitted.


WILLIAM E. CHAFFIN,


Superintendent of Schools.

SUPERVISOR OF DRAWING


Mr. W. E. Chaffin, Superintendent of Schools.


Dear Sir :- The pupils in the schools of Duxbury are cer- tainly doing much better work in drawing this year than last. Nature Work, Practical Design, Lettering, Prospective, Object drawing and Architectural work are the different branches we have planned to take up this coming term.


We hope to make a large exhibit of our work in Duxbury this spring and another at the Marshfield Fair in August. A small exhibit was made at the Fair last August of the work done in the Duxbury schools. Enough to prove that a successful start had been made. Awards, too, were made of premiums to graduates for this exhibit to the amount of $11.50, which was distributed to the scholars concerned.


Lengthy explanations might be made of what we hope to do, but believe the proof will be forthcoming in our spring and summer exhibits.


Respectfully yours, SAMUEL WARNER.

SUPERVISOR OF MUSIC


Mr. W. E. Chaffin, Superintendent of Schools.


Dear Sir :- Many people formerly looked upon music in the schools as a luxury and entirely unnecessary, now, music is being taught in the schools of nearly every town of any size, and it plays an important part in the larger schools. Public perfor- mances are given every year and music from the best com- posers is chosen.


As a result, a better appreciation of good music is brought about with a taste for refinement and culture.


·Any one who has adopted a different system in some parti- cular branch of work realizes, it is very difficult at the start. So, since September the primary and grammar school teachers have worked conscientiously in the "Weaver System," originated by Sterrie A. Weaver, who lived in Westfield, Massachusetts. Since his death a few years ago, the system has been carried on and improved upon by other prominent musicians. It is now being taught in Hartford, Conn., Northhampton, Weymouth and in other cities and towns throughout this State. It might be interesting to parents and music lovers to learn how we are working out this system.


The first grades have learned several rote songs this fall in- cluding the syllables of the scale. The upper primary grades have so memorized the first five tones of the scale that they can sing fairly well, any skips within these tones, also to read these skips in different keys from the blackboard using quarter notes, half notes, dotted half, and whole notes, with a check mark to represent Do. A few pupils in the Point School are even able to read difficult skips, using the eight scale tones.


The idea of this training is to bring about good sight reading.


-70~


The grammar grades are drilling in the same manner with dotted quarter and eighth notes. Observe that the object of this system is to learn thoroughly, one thing at a time.


In addition to this, the individual sight singing slips have been introduced. These have been the most dreaded by the pupils, the idea of singing alone and at sight is like punishment . to all.


However, pupils who have never sung before are taking an in- terest.


This practice is wonderful mind training for three things have to be thought of in a flash, the syllable name, the pitch, and the kind of note to be sung. This is not all, there is something de- finite to work for, if the slip is sung correctly, the pupil re- ceives a credit of ten points. A separate record of this work is kept, and the reason of failure goes on record as well. So, for example, if scholars fail in starting with the right syllable name the teachers know that they are not familiar with the keys, and that more drilling is required in key signatures.


With the work standardized from the very first grade effi- ciency is bound to come, in time. The Academy pupils are working on four part exercises together with their songs, with a little extra drilling on the bass clef.


This is a most fitting time, I believe, to thank the Superin- tendent, Committee and teachers for their hearty co-operation.


Respectfully submitted,


PANSY E. BARTLETT,


Supervisor of Music.

REPORT OF THE PRINCIPAL OF THE PARTRIDGE ACADEMY AND DUXBURY HIGH SCHOOL


Mr. Wm. E. Chaffin, Superintendent of Schools.


Dear Sir :- I submit the following report of the work at the Partridge Academy and Duxbury High school for the year end- ing December 31, 1914 :


At the close of the school year in June a class of ten was graduated. The program of the graduating exercises will be found at the end of this report. One of the graduates has en- tered Colby College, another attended a business school during the fall term, and a third is taking post-graduate work at the Academy.


The school started in September with 47 pupils-5 seniors, 10 juniors, 13 sophomores, and 19 freshmen. Since then 5 pupils have left and one has entered, making the present enrollment 43-1 post-graduate, 5 seniors, 10 juniors, 10 sophomores, and 17 freshmen. This enrollment, while not as large as that of last year, is a good average for the school. It is to be regretted that so many pupils find it necessary to drop out; yet, as the regular High school work makes no appeal to a great many boys and girls, it is really better for them to leave and do something in which they are interested, than to waste time trying to do work to which they are not adapted. Until it is possible for the small school to teach some kind of industrial work, we must expect to lose some pupils each year.


During this fall the attendance has fallen off considerably from last year's record. Tardiness has also been extremely prevalent. I would ask the co-operation of the parents in an attempt to remedy this condition. No pupil can remain out of school a


-72-


single day without losing a certain amount of work that is neces- sary for his further progress ; so that, in many cases, low marks on the report card are directly due to absence and consequent inability to do the work required.


In closing I wish to thank you and the members of the School Committee for your kind assistance throughout the year.


Respectfully submitted,


ALTON HARRISON HARTFORD,


Principal.
