With Mr. Bennett's return the Graphic Arts Shop, serving the upper elementary grades and the High School, was reopened. This phase of the school program had been inoperative since September, 1943, because of the impossibility to secure a suitable instructor.
FREDERICK P. PICKARD and HELEN M. BROWN are, at the time of the writing of this report, still on military leave of absence.
SUMMER PLAYGROUND PROGRAM
During the summer of 1945, a summer playground pro- gram was carried on under the direction of the School Depart- ment. The program was operated for a period of ten weeks. The activities were conducted in the day time both at the Shatswell School - High School grounds and at the Linebrook playground area. This daily program was supplemented by ยท a program for older boys and girls conducted five evenings a week at the Linebrook playground. The average weekly at- tendance in these activities was 950.
Through the generosity of the Red Cross it was possible to supplement this work with a swimming instruction program conducted at the area known as Brown's Pond.
Besides the $1200 appropriated by the Town, other indi- viduals and groups contributed money, equipment, and services to make the program the more successful.
The following is a statement of the cost of operating the program and the sources of revenue used for this purpose:
