ANNUAL REPORT
GENERAL INFORMATION
Birth Certificates
Presentation of a birth certificate is required for entrance to the first grade.
Vaccination
Every child who enters school for the first time must present a certificate of vaccination or a statement from his physician that vaccination is inadvisable.
No School Information
When weather conditions are such that our buses are unable to run, a no school notice will be broadcast over Radio Station WSAR, Fall River, and over Radio Station WPEP, Taunton. Parents are urged to use their own good judgment about sending their children to school on stormy days. The fact that school is in session does not mean that attendance by all pupils is advisable.
Transportation
The law requires that transportation be provided for pupils residing more than two miles from the school attended or more than one mile from the nearest bus stop. Many pupils living at lesser distances along established routes are trans- ported if the seating capacity of the bus will permit. From time to time it is necessary to refuse transportation to some of those living under the required distance when our buses are filled to capacity with children living at a greater distance.
Entrance Age
First grade registration in September of any year will be limited to those children who are at least six years of age or who will become six years of age on or before the following January first. There will be no exception to this ruling. Regis- tration must be during the first three weeks of school in September.

ANNUAL REPORT
REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS
To the Citizens of the Town of Berkley:
I herewith submit my first annual report. Incorporated herein is the report of the Berkley School Committee, and those of the School Nurse and the Supervisor of Music.
Personnel
After eleven years of faithful service to the school system of this Union, Mr. John J. Rolfe resigned as Superintendent of Schools in order to accept a similar position in Wareham, Mass.
We were fortunate that all of the teachers returned to teach in the fall, and Mrs. Lenore Beynon of Swansea was appointed to the new position created by the construction of a classroom in the basement of the school.
The Building
The added classroom constructed in the basement has filled a great need and is a most pleasant spot for the pupils and the teacher to work. However, as previously stated in the report of 1953 the state no longer approves of basement rooms, and it is necessary new classrooms be provided in the near future. At present a committee is very hard at work study- ing all of the needs of the school system and it will report back to the annual Town meeting. The situation demands the attention of all.
The new water supply has been piped into the school, but now it is a question as to whether or not the pipes can stand the higher pressure.
If the building is to be properly maintained a great deal of repair work should be done in the near future.
Finances
The budget for 1955 shows a net increased cost to the town of $7,796.72. The School Committee and Superintendent have planned carefully, but increased costs and an increased enrollment have caused slight increases in almost every item, particularly in teacher salaries, since it was necessary to hire another teacher, and in the accounts for books, supplies, janitor service and repairs.
92
ANNUAL REPORT
The problems of school building costs and increasing operational costs are prevalent throughout the nation. It is strongly hoped that the smaller communities such as Berkley may soon have much needed aid from the state and federal governments, but legislation of this type carries slowly, and frequently not at all.
Health
The health program has been given greater emphasis by the initiation of a program of physical examinations to which the parents are invited, and also the nurse now works an additional one-half day per week in order that she may be able to make more house visits.
Conclusion
I wish to thank all the officials, school personnel, and people of Berkley who have done so much in the few months I have been here to make me sure that I shall enjoy working with and for you and your children.
Respectfully submitted, THOMAS L. WARREN, Superintendent of Schools
REPORT OF THE SCHOOL NURSE
Mr. Thomas L. Warren
Superintendent of Schools
Berkley
Dear Mr. Warren:
I take pleasure in submitting my twelfth annual report as public health nurse in the Berkley Grammar School.
Looking back over the years I realize several changes, improvements and progress has been made.
The enrollment has more than doubled; two class rooms and teachers have been added, new lighting and heating sys- tems have been installed. A room used by the teachers and nurse was made. The vision and hearing test have been greatly improved. These improvements add to the comfort and contribute towards a better health program.
93
ANNUAL REPORT
In the early fall the school committee voted to add an extra half day to the time allotted the school nurse. This extra time has been utilized in making home visits and follow-up work.
The Massachusetts Vision Test was given to all pupils. Three pupils in the first grade failed the test. All were taken to an eye specialist and are under treatment. Early recognition of impaired vision is very important. Two hundred and twenty- five pupils were tested. Nine pupils failed the test.
Although our dental program presents many problems I consider it a very necessary and important part of our health program. We have tried to concentrate our attention on pupils who had urgent conditions existing. The result has been very gratifying. More pupils have attended the clinic and some serious conditions have been corrected. Dr. I. Helfand's report gives a record of the work accomplished during the year.
The usual clinics have been held during the year.
The school health program includes many phases of child health. Home visits are always very satisfying. This type of close contact with parents is necessary, so both parents and nurse may have a better understanding of any health problem that may develop. Attending meetings and lectures on public health developments, new methods and general information proves valuable in the local school health program.
Dr. Alan Poole, school doctor, has started the annual physical examinations. Notices and invitations to be present at the examinations were sent to parents of all first and third grade pupils. Several parents were present and consulted with Dr. Poole.
Dr. Poole and I believe that the promotion of the health of school children is of great importance.
We wish to express our appreciation to the School Com- mittee, teachers and parents for their cooperation and help in the school Health program.
Respectfully submitted,
ELLA F. DILLINGHAM,
Registered Nurse

ANNUAL REPORT
REPORT OF THE MUSIC SUPERVISOR
Mr. Thomas L. Warren Superintendent of Schools
Berkley
Dear Mr. Warren:
I submit my third annual report as supervisor of music of the town of Berkley.
The ultimate aim of any music teacher is to have each class enjoy their music program. This will ensure learning as they will be satisfying their own need of beauty and art. Interest and appreciation cannot come from the supervisor alone, for without the classroom teacher her program would fail. I may honestly say that enthusiasm and enjoyment accom- panies each music lesson. For this, I thank all the teachers.
Because of the new classroom, we found it necessary to purchase new singing books. The book selected was "Singing Juniors", the seventh grade book in the series "Our Singing World" by Ginn and Company. We are in hopes of securing the eighth grade book in this series, thus completing it. This will mean that every class is equipped with the latest music book offered by Ginn and Company, which we find excellent.
Also purchased was a song entitled "Yankee Glory" used for graduation exercises.
Our graduation program was well received. The seventh and eighth grades sang a group of numbers which were in keeping with the program, "United Nations". They worked diligently and should be commended for their performance.
The school orchestra is doing fine. We have a few new members, and have quite a number of students studying privately.
The school committee and teachers have helped make this a very gratifying year.
Respectfully submitted, ELIZABETH A. EVANS,
Supervisor of Music
