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 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 the 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 third annual report. Incorporated herein is the report of the Berkley School Committee, the School Nurse, the Music Supervisors and a report of the Dentist.
Personnel
Two of our regular teachers and the vocal music super- visor left us last June. Miss Olive Kelley, who had previously taught in Salem, was hired to teach grade 6. Mr. Burke who taught at the Christian Day School in Fall River, was chosen to teach grades 7 and 8. Mr. Donald Morrison took over as vocal music supervisor for the union. I believe these changes have served to strengthen our faculty.
We all deeply regretted the passing of Francis Fournier, Sr., one of our custodians. He was well liked by pupils and teachers and had the interest of the school foremost in his mind. Mr. Lawrence Swift was hired in August to replace Mr. Fournier.
Finances
The budget continues to increase. Increases this year are due to the number of pupils for whom tuition will be paid. Along with the increased number of pupils attending high school the School Committee has decided to send the seventh and eighth graders to the Freetown-Lakeville Regional Junior High School. An increase in the State minimum for teachers starting salaries from $3300 to $3600 reflects an increase in our budget. All other items in the budget remain about the same as they were in 1958.
School Program
We anticipate two changes in our school program this year. First the seventh and eighth graders will go to the Apponequet Regional School. This will eliminate the use of the unfinished room as a classroom. This will also provide these classes with a program that will be exploratory in nature and give these pupils a better preparation for high school. A
4
ANNUAL REPORT
similar program could be set up at Berkley only after consid- erable extra space could be made available. Secondly, the first six grades will be able to occupy the rooms on the first floor. As a result the finished room located in the basement can be used for a special class. The Department of Education has for some time stated that we should have such a class but we have not had space available. Such a class is required of any town having five or more retarded children. We have more than twice that number at present.
With these changes I feel that we should be able to run a good elementary school with extra help for those who need it.
Building
Last summer certain floors in the building were refinished. Some rooms were painted and all painted surfaces washed. We hope to expand this refinishing and cleaning project this sum- mer. With the cooperation of the P. T. A. we were able to improve our school grounds some this last summer. This is part of a plan that will be completed in four or five years. It is the ultimate aim of the plan to provide suitable play areas for the children and at the same time improve the landscaping about the building.
Conclusion
I should like to take this opportunity to thank the mem- bers of the P. T. A. for their interest in our school. I want to thank the School Committee for their cooperation throughout the year. I wish to say to those members of the faculty who have stayed for the past few years that I hope the fruits of their labors may be realized in this coming year.
- I wish to thank the parents for their cooperation and say to them again, please feel free to call upon us for any help we can give you with any school problems.
Respectfully submitted, ROBERT T. ROY,
Superintendent of Schools

ANNUAL REPORT
REPORT OF THE PRINCIPAL
Mr. Robert Roy Superintendent of Schools Berkley, Mass.
Dear Mr. Roy:
I herewith submit my sixth annual report as principal of the Berkley Grammar School.
In November, a new primary grade report card was issued, as the result of a study made by the teachers of these grades. Parental response to this new card has been quite satisfactory.
Our third grade science program has been greatly im- proved by the addition of the new science text, "Our World of Science", which is published by Ginn and Co. This com- pletes our science series for grades three to eight.
Educational television in grades two to six has added immeasurably to the curriculum in these grades. One-half hour programs in Science, Music, History and Literature are seen by each of these classes each week. These programs add a great deal to the teacher's regularly prepared lessons.
Our home study program in grades five to eight, which began last year, is flourishing. Students are taking on this responsibility seriously. They realize that all their homework assignments are based on the class lesson for the next day; therefore, they must have it completed. We are pleased with the progress in this area.
During the last marking period of each year, eighth grade students begin work on some of the high school subjects which they have selected for the following year. Last year's class was able to have only six weeks of Latin, Algebra, and Business Arithmetic. It is hoped that ten weeks can be given over to these subjects this year. The Freshman class this year from our school did very well during the first marking period at Digh- ton. We hope that this program contributed to their success.
Our music program under Mr. Morrison and Mr. Lincoln is advancing splendidly. Our Junior High Chorus and our orchestra will be ready for public inspection at our annual con-

ANNUAL REPORT
cert in April. We expect as fine a concert as our students performed last year.
Junior High athletics and our general physical education program was enhanced this year by the presentation of new equipment to us by the Berkley Police Association. This, plus the blacktop area in our school yard has indeed improved our facilities for sports. The latter improvement was undertaken jointly by the P. T. A. and the School Committee. Worthy of note here is the fact that Berkley won the Softball Champion- ship in the Massasoit League for the 1958 season.
The loss of Francis Fournier as our school custodian sad- dened both teachers and students. We all shall miss his warmth and friendliness.
I should like to thank you, the school committee, all school personnel, and our townspeople for making the past school year a most successful one.
Respectfully submitted,
O. J. LAMOUREUX,
Principal

ANNUAL REPORT
INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC REPORT
.
Robert T. Roy Superintendent of Schools
Dear Mr. Roy:
My report as instrumental music supervisor in the Town of Berkley is herewith respectfully submitted.
The instrumental music program consists of group instruc- tion in the brass, woodwind and percussion instruments.
Lessons are offered to beginners, intermediate and advanced instrumentalists. Each group receives one half- hour lesson a week and at the present time there are thirteen students in the instrumental program.
Due to the lack of advanced players, the formation of a band has been delayed but we hope to begin an ensemble group as the proficiency of new students increases.
Some of the students have performed for the school assemblies and with the Dighton bands. These instrumental- ists will also play with the Dighton band at the Spring Concerts and South Eastern Massachusetts music festival.
Respectfully submitted, CHARLES H. LINCOLN,
Instrumental Music Supervisor
VOCAL MUSIC REPORT
Mr. Robert T. Roy Superintendent of Schools Berkley, Mass.
Dear Mr. Roy:
The program of classroom music being offered this year would be best termed a program of general music in that it attempts to stress all phases of musical art rather than limit itself only to the vocal area. The entire program is oriented toward providing broad and varied experiences in music for every child enrolled in the school.
8
ANNUAL REPORT
In grades one through three, much emphasis has been placed on rote singing augmented by the use of singing games and rhythm band instruments. The purpose of this approach is to initiate a process of musical growth centered around the concept of musical enjoyment rather than musical drudgery. During the remainder of the year, the previously mentioned activities will be continued with the addition of experiences within the area of music listening. The students of grades four through eight have been engaged in a survey of the important instruments of the band and orchestra, in addition to their work with selected material in the vocal field. In the study of instrumental music, a systematic approach has been utilized whereby the various groups or families of instruments have been considered both individually and in regard to their importance within the general framework of the band, orches- tra or small ensemble group. This method is being employed in order to best impart to the students the basic understandings of instrumental music necessary for success in their work with musical form and style which will be presented throughout the remainder of the year.
During the fall, the Conn Music Aptitude Test was administered to all students in grades four through eight. This test serves the twofold purpose of indicating those students who will derive the greatest benefit from specialized music training while at the same time pointing up certain areas in which a given grade or class requires special assistance.
The annual Christmas Program was presented on the morning of December 23rd. Representatives of the first seven grades prepared and presented traditional Christmas music. Members of the eighth grade staged a pageant which was accompanied by the Glee Club.
Respectfully submitted, DONALD F. MORRISON,
Supervisor of Vocal Music

ANNUAL REPORT
REPORT OF THE SCHOOL NURSE
Mr. Robert Roy Superintendent of Schools
Berkley, Mass.
Dear Mr. Roy:
I hereby submit my annual report as school nurse of the Berkley Grammar School.
The routine school health program has been carried out for the year.
Clinics for Diphtheria and Tetanus protection were held in March, April, and May. Vaccination against Smallpox was done at the Preschool Clinic. Both clinics were well attended.
Massachusetts Vision Test and Hearing Test were given to pupils in all grades. Notices were sent to parents reporting a failure to pass the test.
Pupils in the first and third grades have attended the dental clinic. Several emergency tooth aches have been taken care of through the clinic. It is our hope that the dental clinic will expand so that the pupils may have more dental coverage.
Dr. Alan Poole examined pupils in grades 1, 3, 5, and 7. Cavities and enlarged or infected tonsils are the major health problems. Four pupils have had tonsillectomies during the year.
There have been a few cases of chicken pox and virus infection in the school, but the general health of the children has been good. Attendance has been 85 per cent. for the year.
I wish to thank all the school personnel and the people of Berkley for their interest and cooperation in the school health program.
Respectfully submitted,
ELLA F. DILLINGHAM, R.N.

REPORT OF THE SCHOOL PHYSICIAN
Robert T. Roy Superintendent of Schools Berkley, Mass.
Dear Sir:
The following is my report as School Physician for the Town of Berkley:
Routine physical examinations showed the students of Berkley are maintaining a commendable health level.
Records of the School Health Service may be found in the report of the School Nurse, whose services are outstanding in school health.
Again I wish to thank the personnel of the Berkley school for the fine cooperation of the past year.
Yours very truly, DR. ALAN M. POOLE

ANNUAL REPORT
REPORT OF THE DENTAL CLINIC
Mr. Robert Roy Superintendent of Schools Berkley, Mass.
Dear Mr. Roy:
This is the annual report of the dental clinic serving the Berkley Elementary School. The term started on March 31, 1958, and ended on November 3, 1958. This is equal to 15 visits to the dental clinic. The total number of operations was 105. Breaking this down into the various services rendered, we accomplished this:
50 extractions of teeth including odontectomies (surgical removal with sutures ) 10 prophylaxes (cleanings ) 38 amalgam (silver ) fillings 7 silicate (porcelain ) fillings
