EVALUATION
On March 18, 19, and 20, the visiting committee of the New England Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools thoroughly inspected all phases of the operation of this school plant. We were very much pleased with the results of their evaluation. Parts of their formal report follow.
"The members of the Visiting Committee in submitting this report wish to congratulate the Staff of the Wachusett Regional High School for their outstanding self-evalua- tion. We trust that citizens of the several towns, the School Committee, and those in authority will recognize that many hours of extra work by the Faculty have been required to produce this comprehensive report.
"The Visiting Committee, collectively and individually, wish to express their appreciation of the privilege of participating in the evaluation of this, the first of the regional high schools in the State.
"Your study of yourselves is one of the greatest, if not the greatest, values of the program. From it you un- doubtedly have discovered ways and means of serving, to a greater degree, the educational needs of the communities for which the Wachusett Regional High School is respon- sible.
"The plan for evaluation and accreditation of the New England Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools has for its purposes :
1. The up-grading of public school education.
2. The appraisal of local schools at small cost to the community.
3. The support for requested and needed facilities.
4. Accreditation of member schools.
"Early in our visit we were convinced of the general ex- cellence of your school and were conscious of the high standards which you have set for yourselves.
25
"Good administration is reflected in a smoothly opera- ting program, free from interruption, with a judicious use of the public address system.
"Other commendable features and practices particularly noted were:
1. Your beautiful and highly functional plant with its excellent equipment in all depart- ments .
The faultless appearance of the building and its maintenance by an efficient custodial staff .
3. The favorable class sizes and teacher-pupil ratio.
4. The complete courses of study for all subjects and their continuing revision.
5. The recognition of the superior student and the opportunities provided for him.
6. The effort being made to meet the needs of the less gifted student.
7. The flexibility of the program which permits ad- justment of a student's schedule when the need becomes evident."
To sum this all up, we feel we had a good year in 1963. Of course, we had problems, but this is to be expected. We are crowded this year and will probably be more crowded next year. We certainly hope that some solution to this problem will be found quickly. To those who have so ably assisted me, many thanks.

IV Miscellaneous Cost Data: Salaries
Unfortunately there is no uniform system of cost ac- counting in use by school systems, thus making external com- parison difficult and of little value. We can, however, com- pare the trend of our own costs. Admittedly, costs alone do not tell the entire story, but if used with the proper limi- tations, they may be informative.

Salaries
In view of the considerable controversy over the adequacy of teachers' earnings, the following facts from our Federal In- come Tax return for 1963 are of interest. Of the 71 teachers who were employed the entire year (excluding administrators) , the average annual pay was $6,519. The lowest pay was $4544 and the highest was $9,186. In increments of $500, the earnings of the Wachusett faculty was as follows :
Under $5000

Conclusion
School expenditures take a large share of each town's budget. It is the duty of each citizen to become acquainted with how the money is spent and, we believe, to insist upon the best possible education for the money his town can afford. omy does not arise simply from spending fewer dollars. It arises from getting the most from every dollar necessarily spent. This is the price we must pay for freedom!
