ANNUAL REPORT.
REPORT OF COMMITTEE.
Our schools, seven in number, have been in session thirty-four weeks during the year which has closed.
It has been our aim to employ only good teachers, and if through lack of experience or want of discipline, some of our teachers have failed to meet the expectations of Committee and parents, others have been successful, and we feel that in general we have had a fair degree of prosperity, and our teachers have not labored in vain.
OBEDIENCE.
We have been often reminded during the past year of the importance of good order and prompt obedience in school, but to secure this condition of things it requires the united efforts of teacher, parents and committee. There must be obedience at home on the part of our children, if we are to expect it at school.
A noted educator once said when speaking of obedience : It is a greater acquirement than arith- metic or grammar, and recently in the case of a fire in a school building in one of our large cities, where were eight hundred children, such was the discipline and habit of obedience that the teacher emptied the building in three minutes and only one child was injured, and this exception was a boy, who, in disobedience to the teacher's orders, at- tempted to get out of a window.
44
ANNUAL REPORT.
IRREGULAR ATTENDANCE.
We desire to call the attention of parents to this great evil, it is a great injury to the interests of the school. When a pupil is absent from school but a single day, he or she has lost a link in the chain which must be replaced or the pupil must stumble along without it greatly to his disadvantage.
Absence from sickness and other necessary causes cannot be avoided, but the practice of allow- ing a child to attend school one day and remain at home the next is not only doing the child a great injury,but is working against the best efforts of the teacher for the rest of the school.
NON ATTENDANCE.
This is an evil even worse and more unjustifi- able than "irregular attendance." The parent or guardian who for a slight pretext-(perhaps don't like the teacher) removes their child from school, permitting them to remain away for weeks togeth- er, not only wrongs the child but the community and town suffers from such a course, because of his example in setting at defiance the laws of the Com- monwealth and daring the School Committee and Truant Officers to enforce the law which the stat- utes of the Commonwealth require them to do.
The school law under which we are living re- quires the attendance at school of all children be- tween the ages of eight and fourteen years for thirty weeks during the year. This would require an attendance in Berkley for nearly the whole of our school year.
45
ANNUAL REPORT.
We hope when our schools open again, every child of school age will be found in school, and that there will be no need of any further allusion to this matter.
TEXT BOOKS.
No changes have been made the past year in text books with the exception that we have intro- duced "vertical writing" with very good results.
REPAIRS ON SCHOOL BUILDINGS.
Very little has been done the past year in re- pairs more than to replace broken windows and repair doorsteps and put flag poles in such condi- tion as to comply with the recent law which re- quires a flag upon every school house.
SNOW BLOCKADE.
Your Committee would call the attention of the citizens of Berkley to the fact that during the past winter several heavy snows had fallen,followed by a strong wind, which caused such a blockade of snow in our roads as to make several of our schools almost a failure for two or three days. We would suggest that not only the Highway Surveyor, but all public spirited citizens join in this matter and see that a good path is made to the school house from every part of the school district as soon as possible after a snow storm, so that the money so generously appropriated for schools in our town shall not be wasted through neglect of its citizens.
46
ANNUAL REPORT.
VACCINATION.
The attention of parents and guardians should be called to the fact that many of the children in town have not been vaccinated. As the law re- quires that all children who attend the "public school" shall have been vaccinated it becomes the duty of some one to see that this is properly attend- ed to.
DISTRICT SUPERVISION.
Your Committee are inclined to favor "Dis- trict Supervision," but as indications seem to point to the fact that we are to have it whether we vote to accept the provisions of the Act of 1888, and ap- propriate the money or not, it may be a question as to the wisest course to pursue,
We cannot close our report without a word of thanks to the people of the town of Berkley for the generous spirit they have shown in the past in re- gard to school appropriations, and we hope the same spirit will be manifest in the future.
SCHOOL CENSUS.
Number of children in town the 1st day of May, between the ages of five and fifteen years, was 146; between the ages of eight and fourteen years, was 115.
