REPORT OF THE SCHOOL COMMITTEE


OF THE


TOWN OF QUINCY,


FOR THE SCHOOL YEAR 1885-86.


The year just closed has been rather an uneventful period in the history of our schools, so far as the ordinary administration of school work is concerned. Not that the general improvement has failed to maintain as high a ratio of advance as in former years, but from the fact that all the forces and elements com- prised in our system grow yearly more in harmony with each other, and now operate without that friction which was neces- sarily incidental to the application of a new method of instruc- tion. We have, also, been more fortunate than usual in the re- tention of a large number of old, experienced teachers, who have long been identified with our schools ; and to these we are in a great measure indebted for the very satisfactory character of the work which has been accomplished during the past year.


Your Committee are unanimous in the opinion that, so far as the real ends to be desired, and the designs intended by the public schools are concerned, the Quincy schools occupy an honorable and exemplary position among the educational institu- tions of the State.


EVENING SCHOOL.


At the annual town meeting in March, 1885, the sum of one thousand dollars ($1,000) was appropriated for the purpose of establishing an evening school, for instruction in mechanical drawing. Having no vacant room in any of the schoolhouses, which could possibly be used for such a school, we were obliged to seek accommodations elsewhere. A vacant hall in " Hard- wick Block," South Quincy, was rented, which was the best that


-

could be obtained, although rather inconveniently small for the purpose. Having secured the services of an able and competent instructor in Mr. Thomas E. Sweeney, this school was formally opened, Thursday evening, October 22, with forty pupils, all that could be accommodated in the hall.


It immediately became evident that the demands upon this school would be far beyond its capacity. The original intention of the Committee was to hold the sessions of the school three evenings in each week, continuing for a period of twenty weeks. So many persons applied for admission, however, and so great was the pressure upon the Committee, that it was deemed ad- visable to engage another teacher (as Mr. Sweeney could only serve us three evenings in each week), and open the hall, for another class of forty, on the evenings not occupied by the original school. This was accordingly done, and Mr. W. B. Church employed to take charge of the second class, which en- ables us now to give instruction to eighty persons in industrial and mechanical drawing, under the provision made by the town. We are pleased to inform our citizens that, while the history of many evening schools in other towns shows a rather discourag- ing lack of interest on the part of the public, and impaired use- fulness from the irregular attendance of pupils, the Quincy Drawing School is remarkable for the intense interest mani- fested in the work by all who are connected with it, and the moral influence and support it receives from the best sentiment of the town. The peculiar nature of the leading industry of Quincy renders the instruction given in a drawing school of exceptional value to a very large class of our citizens ; particu- larly young men who design to engage in this industry, as a life work or as a temporary means of livelihood.


While the statute requires the maintenance of such a school by the town, it neither limits nor advises the actual number to be provided for, or the sum to be expended in such instruction ; leaving this entirely to the discretion of the School Committee. While your Committee has felt the perplexity of discriminating with impartiality among the many applicants who have presented themselves for admission, they have striven to select those who were most likely to be permanently benefited by this instruction, and whose probable attendance would be a fair guarantee that the money thus expended would be usefully employed, and the school meet the design of the public.


In consequence of the unexpected demand made upon us for the privileges of this school, we have been obliged to exceed the appropriation granted by the town by the sum of one hundred


5


and sixty-one dollars and thirty-two cents ($161.32). Of course a large portion of the expense of the past year has been the fitting up of a room and purchase of apparatus, which will not be necessary the coming year.
