WARD THREE.


Miss MARY HALL, Grammar: METTA C. ORR, Pri- mary school.


12


This Grammar school is numerically the smallest school, of the same grade, in town, and composed of the youngest pupils; yet, under the able leadership of their teacher, have cultivated an extensive field of effort, and have done their work thoroughly, showing that good discipline, energy, and determined zeal, in the pursuit of knowledge, may accomplish much with- out the advantages which experience brings with riper years. Cliftondale may well be proud of its youthful historian ; its writers ; arithmeticians, gram- marians, and orators.


This Ward has also the smallest Primary school in town. We do not ask teacher or scholars to do any better. We know they will try, and try earnestly and will succeed if possible.


A zeal unbounded, and a woman's will. What opposition can withstand; .. Be still ! " She says, though gently as the purling rill, And every little lip and foot and hand Is quiet. as if hushed in sleep ; 't is grand To feel this silent power. on sea or land. But in the school we think it quite sublime. A wonder to beholders - on that line. She means to conquer, and, if tact and skill Can do it, conquer thus she surely will.


WARD FOUR.


Miss S. F. GOODNOW, Grammar school : Miss E. A. MANSFIELD, Primary school.


The school first above named has done remarkably well. It has, we think, made more improvement than any school in town. Generally speaking, we were satisfied, and more than satisfied. Had we time to particularize, we could mention many points for com- mendation. We notice one slight failure, which may


13


be easily remedied-a little lacked in what is termed drilling. It will not do to rely wholly upon memory, with occasional reviews, to retain dry rules and other matters purely technical. They are too artificial to elicit any general interest. They must be fixed in the mind, if at all, by persistent, frequent, and sys- tematic reviews.


We desire to express our gratification for the in- terest Mr. B. F. Calley has taken in this school, by giving the scholars gratuitous lessons in music twice each week, since January, and the fulfillment of his generous promise, made last year, of prizes for declamation and composition.


The teacher of the Primary school has felt obliged to tender her resignation, after teaching with unpar- alleled success, the same school, for twenty successive years, on account of impaired health ; but, at the suggestion of the Committee, has withdrawn the same, and has asked for a substitute, for a single term, until she can recruit her exhausted energies. This we have cheerfully granted. The school is large, and the labor severe. Her usefulness was never greater or more apparent than at present. This interesting school has more than sustained its previous high character during the past year.


The marked success of the schools in this ward, rarely achieved, is alike flattering to teachers, pupils, and parents.


There seems to have been a happy union of three important elemental forces,- earnest, faithful, and devoted teachers ; intelligent, willing, and obedient scholars, and watchful and sympathizing parents-all


14


acting in harmony. Without all these, so much and so good work is simply impossible. Children have more need of models than critics.


WARD FIVE.


Mrs. E. W. BOARDMAN.


This is a mixed school, with plenty of work. Av- erage attendance twenty-seven, with fifty classes. Our impression is that the material here, in an educational point of view, is, generally, not as good, with, of course, some fine exceptions, as we have before observed. And the less apt the scholars are and susceptible of rapid improvement, the less, as a rule, the meed of praise awarded to the teacher; but this is an exceptional case. This teacher has been too long and too favorably known to require any commendation at our hands. All we need say, is she has well sustained her previous good reputation. and the school, in point of discipline, order, neatness. and industry, ranks as high as at any other time.

At the appointed time for opening the school the inside doors shall be locked, and reopened at the close of the devotional exercises, and all scholars admitted after that time shall be marked tardy.


2. Each school, except the Primary, shall be kept three hours in the forenoon and three hours in the afternoon. The morning sessions shall commence a 83 o'clock, A. M., during the summer terms, and 9 o'clock during the winter; and the afternoon sessions may begin either at 1} or 2 o'clock, P. M., at the discretion of the teachers.


3. The exercises shall commence with the reading of the Bible each morning, and it is recommended that this reading be followed by some other devotional exercise. No change from the regular school hours shall be made without the permission of the Committee.


4. Teachers shall exercise the same authority over their scholars during the recess, on the school premises, and in going to and from school, as while in the school-room ; shall maintain a kind, faithful, and parental discipline, avoiding all harsh punishments and all pro- voking and improper language; shall aim, by precept and example, to improve the manners and morals of their pupils, and exert their influence to prevent all unbecoming behavior.


5. Punishment .- When punishment shall have become absolutely necessary, teachers shall take care to punish with moderation and presence of mind, and never punish under the influence of a hasty movement, or when they feel irritated. As punishment is inflicted only for the purpose of benefitting the children, teachers shall watch over themselves, so as not to exhibit anger or impatience in their


3


18


corrections aud reproofs. They shall not at any time give to their' scholars any injurious epithet or insulting name. They shall not strike the head, nor pull the ears or hair, nor punish in any indecent manner; nor use corporal punishment, except when other means of correction have failed to produce the right effect.


6. Record of Corporal Punishment .- Teachers shall keep an exact record of all corporal punishments inflicted, inscribing therein the name of the pupil, the date, the offence, and the extent of the punishment. This record shall always be open for the inspection of any member of the Board.


7. Refractory Scholars .- Whenever a pupil shall be found guilty of grossly immoral conduct, or shall continue violent and refractory under proper discipline, the teacher shall immediately inform the Committee, by whom the pupil shall be excluded from school, or otherwise dealt with, according to their discretion; and, in cases of stubborn and violent opposition, the teacher may exclude a scholar, giving immediate notice to the parent or guardian, and applying to the Committee for advice and direction.


8. Scholars leaving under censure .- Teachers shall give imme- diate notice to the Committee whenever any scholar shall leave while under censure. No scholar so leaving shall be allowed to attend any public school in the town, except by order of the Committee, when proper satisfaction has been made.


9. Teachers shall receive or retain in their schools only those whose residence is within the prescribed boundaries, except by the consent of the Committee.


10. Teachers shall not permit any subscriptions or contributions for any purpose whatever, among their pupils; nor allow any exhi- bition, show or advertisement to be introduced into their schools without the permission of the Committee; nor permit any invitation to any show or exhibition without the consent of a majority of the Committee.


11. Recesses .- A recess of ten minutes shall be given at the mid- dle of each half day's session of the schools, and, by the consent of the Committee, the Primary Schools may be allowed two recesses in each half day. In schools where there is but one yard, the male and female pupils shall have their recesses separately ; and in no case shall any scholar be wholly deprived of a recess each half day.


12. Holidays .- Wednesday and Saturday afternoons, the day of


19


Public Fast, the Fourth of July, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day, shall be allowed as holidays; and teachers who may wish to attend the Essex County Teachers' Convention will be allowed for this purpose alone, the two days in the spring, and the two in the autumn, on which that convention meets.


13. Vacations .- The school year shall commence on the third Monday of March, and shall close on the last Saturday in February. There shall be a vacation during the last week in May, one of six weeks preceding the first Monday in September, and one of two weeks in November, including Thanksgiving week and the week after.


14. Admission as to Age .- No child shall be admitted to the Primary Schools under five years of age.


15. Vaccination .- Scholars to be admitted to any public school must furnish satisfactory evidence of having been successfully vac- cinated.


16. No school or text books shall be introduced without the ap- probation of a majority of the Committee.


17. Teachers shall be responsible for the school property en- trusted to their care; but all injury done to it by any scholar shall be paid for by the parent or guardian.

ANNUAL REPORT.


The Auditing Committee for 1875 have attended to their duties, and herewith present the Annual Report of the Town.


We have carefully examined all the accounts and vouchers, and find them correct.


We would recommend that hereafter a day be fixed by the Town Officers when all town accounts shall be closed and balanced. Here- tofore much labor has been required of the Auditors which does not properly belong to them.


We would also suggest that a more thorough system of accounts be provided for the Poor Farm.
