NEW TEACHERS.


Since September 1920, there has been a clean sweep in the teaching force, and three of the four began their work here in September 1921. We have, however, been greatly favored by freedom from interruption in that neither the school nor any teachers have lost an hour of school time.


RETENTION OF PUPILS.


Only three pupils have left school at this writing, all freshmen who have removed from town.


TARDINESS.


Tardiness is on the increase, and, as it is customary for school people to give the "credit" for all shortcomings to parents, we are asking for a higher degree of cooperation to check the tendency ..


We regret, too, that not less than 12 pupils found it neces- sary to delay entering 'school for from one day to ten weeks. Still this is not unusual in summer resort towns.


ORAL THEMES.


It seems advisable to us to stress oral rather than written themes for at least the half of the school year. The aver- age person makes his education felt far more by his speech than by his writing.


THE NEW DICTIONARIES.


No more important addition to the school's equipment could have been made than the Winston dictionaries, re- cently supplied to the whole school by vote of the commit- tee.

CHRISTMAS SEALS.


The drive to sell these seals for the benefit of the Massa- chusetts Tuberculosis League was engineered by the High School with several other agencies assisting. We are hereby gratefully acknowledging this aid.


The drive netted $79.56, in comparison with $44.19, the amount the town contributed last year.


OTHER MATTERS.


It seems wise to defer any discussion of other matters until further observations can lead to better based opinions.


I desire to record herewith my sincere appreciation of the efforts of all who are cooperating with me, supervisors .. teachers, committee and parents.


Respectfully submitted,


ROBERT CUSHMAN, Jr., Principal.

REPORT OF SUPERVISOR OF MUSIC.


To the Superintendent of Schools of Duxbury :


In the grade work this year I have pursued the same policy as last year, in trying to give the average boy and girl a chance to learn note-reading, rather than to do bril- liant work on exhibition days, or to develop the most musi- cal minority to a fine degree of excellence. The teachers almost unanimously, I think, endorse this policy, and cer- tainly all cooperate to further it.


The shortening of the High School periods gave such a short time for music that the principal kindly arranged to give me an extra period beside the prescribed hour for gen- eral chorus singing. We had no trouble in getting together a glee club of the best musical talent in the school, and here we have a little opportunity for individual training.


Two new books were purchased for the music department this year. One, a volume of two-part songs for the Inter- mediate schools, supplements the Second Reader, which of- fers scant material in the two-part singing so desirable in these grades. The other, a volume of four-part songs for the High School, is the first of its kind introduced here for many years, and was much needed, both for the music periods and for the semi-weekly assembles. Both books, have been a great help in stimulating interest in our music. I believe our particular need of equipment in this department now is a volume for the grammar schools which shall give the boys more practice in reading from the bass-clef, as our present material in this line is meagre, and I feel sure the boys entering High School are handicapped for want of such training.


-101-


I wish to express my appreciation of the strong support of the grade teachers, without which I realize my work could not be effective, and to thank the High School staff for their interest and assistance.


Respectfully submitted,


REBECCA PHILLIPS, Supervisor of Music.


REPORT OF SUPERVISOR OF DRAWING.


Note : The Supervisor of Drawing is unfortunately un- der quarantine at this time and therefore unable to submit a written report of his work. Instruction has been given regularly along the same lines as in former years and with as good success.


F. E. Bragdon, Superintendent of Schools.

REPORT OF THE SELECTMEN


To the Citizens of Duxbury :


Your Board of Selectmen make the following report :


In accordance with the vote of the Town, Powder Point Avenue has been completed from the residence of Mr. Phillips easterly to the Gurnet Bridge, all within the appro- priation of $4,000.


Sunset Road also has been completed from Washington Street to Chapel Street making this one of the prettiest little streets in town.


The Gurnet Road, so-called, at the northerly end of Dux- bury Beach, has been repaired satisfactory to the property owners there. There is a small section just northerly of this street that needs repairs the coming spring.


Temple Street at North Duxbury has been greatly im- proved considering the material available for use.


A section of Standish Street has been graded and drained in anticipation of having funds the coming spring availa- ble for applying a surface of asphalt.


The question of clearing the streets of snow is getting to be a question of great importance. A majority of people now travelling by automobile are demanding that the streets in all parts of the town, even the most remote location be cleared immediately which means an enormous appropria- tion if there is much snow.


We believe that with two snow ploughs of a type suitable for a three or four ton truck used in the proper time and in a proper way can clear the streets within a reasonable time.


Your board recommends that we have all improvements

possible, bearing in mind at all times that the same must be paid for. Before deciding on the appropriations asked for the coming year consider your tax bill that you know you will receive the following fall and see if you really can af- ford to pay any higher rate than last year.


Respectfully submitted,


SIDNEY C. SOULE, WENDELL PHILLIPS, ALFRED E. GREEN, Selectmen of Duxbury.
