Report of Attendance Officer


December 18, 1935.


Vernon W. Evans, Superintendent, School Department, Saugus, Massachusetts.


DEAR MR. EVANS :-


I herein submit my report of the second half of the 1935 school year.


I have investigated more than two hundred cases of absence from school. Most of these were caused by sickness of pupil or some member of the family. There were some caused by lack of shoes and a few by lack of cooperation by the parents. The above cause is being worked on and I think it will be straightened out satisfactorily.


Respectfully submitted,


GEORGE I. HULL,


Attendance Officer.


Report of High School Principal


1


Mr. Vernon W. Evans, Supt. of Schools,


Saugus, Mass.


DEAR MR. EVANS :-


I herewith submit to you my first report as Principal of the Saugus High School.


School opened in September with a large enrollment as the following figures will show:


Post-graduates


13 Freshmen 258


Seniors


165


Grade VIII 314


Juniors


155


Grade VII 167


Sophomores


303


Total 1375


The enrollment was so large that it was necessary to use the Chemistry Laboratory and the Library as home rooms. This situation is very bad since pupils do not have a suitable place in which to keep their books. If our enrollment continues to increase it will be necessary to return to the two platoon sys- tem.


19


REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE


1935]


Because of the large enrollment it seemed best to have three lunch periods instead of two as formerly. The arrangements of grades seven and eight eating during the first lunch period, the freshmen and sophomores the second, and the juniors and seniors the third, has worked out very well. New tables were purchased for the cafeteria during the summer. Although no chairs as yet have been purchased for the cafeteria the present set-up works out satisfactorily. Pupils who bring lunches from home still continue to eat them in the basement. A group of teachers, the sub-master and the principal are on duty in the basement, the cafeteria, and on the school grounds during the three lunch periods.


There were only two changes in the faculty this fall, both being in the Junior High School. Miss Josephine Ready and Miss Bernice Dahlen are the two new teachers. Due to the ill- ness of Mr. Wheeler, the head of the science department, Mr. Earl Chadsey has been teaching chemistry since school opened. Mr. Young and the teachers throughout the school have been particularly helpful to the principal in taking over his new work. Any success that we have had thus far has been due to their enthusiastic cooperation.


At present committees of teachers are at work upon pro- posed changes in the curriculum. Perhaps someone may ask why the curriculum of the Saugus High School should be changed; whether it is desirable that revisions occur frequent- ly, or why the curriculum, once determined, should not remain fixed. The following quotations may help to answer these questions : "The experience of the schools throughout the coun- try is that a changing world demands a moving, changing edu- cation which keeps pace, to prepare pupils to meet new world- wide situations brought about by new knowledge and practice in the fields of science, sociology, and economics. A dynamic world demands a dynamic education. A static education in a dynamic world is not education. Each important change in our world offers a challenge to the existing education to prove it- self competent or fit to be continued." "This is an age of sci- ence, of increasing leisure, of rapid change, and of collective action. Each of these characteristics of our society, and many more that might be mentioned, makes its own requirements on education. Among the many perplexing problems which face


20


TOWN DOCUMENTS


[Dec. 31


the American people, none is more important than the develop- ment of the schools along lines which will effectively help the new generation to meet the problems of the new age." "The school must seek to develop such qualities as adaptability and open-mindedness. A school which teaches an easy and unrea- sonable obedience to the dictates of arbitrary authority is equally open to question." "Education must hold as its pur- pose the production of citizens who will have the background and knowledge sufficient to judge clearly the efforts of their leaders toward economic reconstruction."


An answer to a parent's question: "What will a parent do who wishes his child, 'now in Saugus High School, to have a successful school year?


1. He will see that his child is present, on time, every session, unless in cases of great urgency.


2. He will see that his child has enough sleep at regular hours.


3. He will see that his child is wakened in time to have breakfast before leaving for school.


4. He will see that his child has a quiet place in which to study and that the studying is done regularly.


5. He will, by word and attitude, impress upon his child the fact that school is the most important job right now.


6. He will insist that his child's social activities and tem- porary pleasures be made less important than school.


7. He will investigate, with the purpose of getting all the facts, the reasons his child assigns for poor marks.


8. He will not accept his child's statement that there is no need of home-study, if such a statement should be made.


9. He will visit the school occasionally, to talk with the teacher about his child's work.


10. He will show a constant interest in his child's school progress.


One of the chief problems confronting the teachers and administrators of Saugus High School is failure prevention.


21


REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE


1935]


"Failure is depressing, humiliating to the personality. The fear of failure may sometimes act as a spur to increased ac- tivity, but failure itself, untouched by inspiration from some other source, has never resulted in later conspicuous achieve- ment. It has long been known that failure to make normal progress is one of the chief causes of early school leaving. The school which prides itself upon maintaining a high standard by the establishing of a single, arbitrary promotion level, and by the rigid exclusion from its courses of those who fail to reach that level, has forgotten its mission in a democracy. Children have a right to the encouragement resulting from success, and that school will be doing the most for society which tries, by careful grouping, differentiated work, and in- tensive study of individual needs, to keep its children in a success atmosphere."


There are two causes of failure that should be mentioned. (1) Absence from school. Absence from school because of illness cannot be helped. But we have several pupils who are out of school now and then, a day this week and two days the next, who are never able to catch up with their class. This irregular attendance on the part of some pupils is a constant source of discouragement to teachers. (2) Wrong attitude. Unfortunately we have a few pupils who take the wrong atti- tude toward school and thus become disturbing elements. They become disciplinary problems and are constantly menacing the progress of the whole group. These pupils are not only indifferent to their own school progress but become so annoy- ing to everyone that we are forced to exclude them from class. Pupils who have to be disciplined in this way generally fail.


Report Cards are sent to parents every eight weeks. Special reports are sent to parents at intermediate periods if the quality of the work is unsatisfactory. Cooperation between the home and the school is absolutely necessary in this matter. Frequent visits to the school to talk with the principal and his teachers may save many failures.


SUGGESTED REPAIRS AND IMPROVEMENTS


(1) Gates in the corridor near the assembly hall.


(2) New lights in the Mechanical Drawing room.


(3) Weather stripping in several rooms.


22


TOWN DOCUMENTS


[Dec. 31


(4) New window shades in several rooms.


(5) Replacement of old desks in Study Hall.


(6) New treads on stairways where needed.


(7) Some place made for pupils to keep their books if Chemistry laboratory is to be used as a home room.


In closing I wish to thank you, Mr. Evans, and the School Committee for your helpful advice and encouragement.

Principal.


Report of Art Supervisor


332 Lincoln Avenue, Saugus, Massachusetts, December 23, 1935.


Mr. Vernon W. Evans, Superintendent of Schools,


Saugus, Massachusetts.


DEAR SIR :-


I am pleased to offer my annual report as teacher of Art in the public schools of Saugus.


My teaching schedule remains as of last year: Two days each week are spent with the twelve classes of the Central Junior High School. One day each week is with the five classes of the Sweetser Junior High School. The fifty-four grade classes and two opportunity classes are visited once each month. Monthly outlines are arranged for each class in the grades, that the individual teacher may follow, allowing, ap- proximately, the pupil two art periods each week in the grades.


Outlines are planned that an integrated program may be attained. .


Many local clubs and organizations have shown interest in the Art work accomplished, and have offered competitive awards for posters in the Junior High School.


Several bronze and silver medals were awarded grade pupils for posters in observance of "Be Kind to Animal Week" by the Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. The posters which were prize winners were on ex-


23


REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE

hibition at the Boston Public Library in April, the exhibition being arranged by the Humane Society above mentioned.


Illustrations and posters have been made in observance of Constitution Day September 17, Fire Prevention Week October 6-12, American Education Week November 11-17 Children's Book Week November 17-23, as well as various holiday ob- servances in the grades.


Many senior high school pupils have asked for assistance in Art problems this past year, but the program at present does not afford time for any definite Art period. It is sug- gested that Art be made an elective subject in both Junior and Senior High schools, allowing one day for Junior High school classes and one day for Senior High School classes each week. In this way, pupils who are definitely interested in Art work could have more assistance. At present the pupils in the High School have no time allotted for Art work. With this change of schedule Art could be made an elective subject' in the Senior High School.


The increased number in the Opportunity classes makes it impossible to teach the entire group together as of last year.


I wish to express my appreciation to the principals and teachers who have assisted in the work of the Art department this past year.


To the School Committee, and to you, Mr. Evans for guid- ance and support, I am most appreciative.


Respectfully submitted, ANSTRICE CARTER KELLOGG, Art Supervisor.


Report of Music Supervisor


Saugus, Mass., December 18, 1935.


Mr. Vernon Evans, Supt. of Schools.


DEAR SIR :-


I herewith submit my annual report as Supervisor of Music in the Public Schools of Saugus, Mass.


24


TOWN DOCUMENTS


[Dec. 31


GRADE SCHOOLS


In the grades the same program as outlined in previous reports is being carried on. This means that there are 11 build- ings containing approximately 60 classes that are visited once a month. A course of study is outlined for each, for the year. Every 2 months each teacher receives a typewritten copy of the work to be covered.


We also have several first grade toy orchestras, to which additional time is given.


Three buildings have orchestras containing violins, etc., that are taken during a noon period.


In' addition I have given some work in Music Appreciation in every building.


JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL


Three days a week is given to Junior High School classes, 17 in all. Each class receives one 45 min. period a week. The course of study as outlined in the grades is carried on and completed during the Junior High School years.


In the eighth grade I have taken up reading music written in the Bass Clef, because, at present we have no classes in music in the High School.


Since practically every home to-day is equipped with a radio, I sincerely believe that just singing is not sufficient to enable boys and girls, especially in the formative age of Jr. High School, to appreciate music. Therefore this year I have tried to train these pupils to enjoy all branches of this very im- portant subject.


We have done this by listening to some of the best selections on a victrola, by reading and discussing stories of the operas, oratorios, such as The Messiah, and also lives of the great composers.


In addition, I have a large picture of each instrument of the Symphony Orchestra, which I display, at the same time dis- cussing its tone quality, range, parts, etc., so that they may be able to recognize each instrument by sight or sound.


25


REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE


1935]


HIGH SCHOOL


In the High School we have our orchestra, which meets once a week.


At present, Mr. Emmons Robinson of C. G. Conn, Ltd., is, by permission of the School Committee, starting to reorganize the band. We hope that at the beginning of the baseball sea- son, a splendid band will make its appearance.


May I extend my sincere thanks to each teacher, principal, member of the School Committee and to you, Mr. Evans, for the splendid assistance and cooperation I have received.


Respectfully submitted, GERTRUDE K. HICKEY, Supervisor of Music.


Report of Mechanical Drawing Department


Mr. Vernon W. Evans, Superintendent of Schools, Saugus, Mass.


DEAR SIR :-


I herewith submit my annual report of the Mechanical Drawing Department.


This, as in the past, has been a banner year for Mechanical Drawing. The six periods which have been allotted for this work are nearly filled to capacity. The interest of the students is shown by the type and quality of work they are producing and it speaks for itself.


Several of the boys are particularly interested in aviation and have drawn plans of ships which they are building. One boy is making the plans of a gasoline driven model which will have a wing spread of about six feet. I hope that by spring we will have it in the air.


I am again making a very urgent request that the Drafting room be painted, the ceiling whitened and some good lighting fixtures installed. I know that the lighting now is very poor and that in fair justice to the 150 pupils who use this room it should be improved. Lost eye sight can never be replaced.

TOWN DOCUMENTS


[Dec. 31


I do hope that next year we can have the classes separated as follows; third and fourth year pupils in one division, two divisions of second year, and three divisions of first year students.


My thanks go out to Mr. Evans, the Principal and the School Committee for their cooperation in the past year.


Respectfully submitted,


PAUL BUND.


Report of School Nurse


Mr. Vernon W. Evans, Superintendent of Schools, Saugus, Massachusetts.


DEAR MR EVANS :-


I herewith submit for approval my first annual report as school nurse for the year ending December 31, 1935.


Before doing so, however, I should like first to express my sincere appreciation for the encouragement and cooperation given me by virtually every member of the School Department.


To you, Mr. Evans, the School Committee, school physicians and teachers in the various schools, I owe a great deal for helping me to carry on the school nurse's work as it was left by my predecessor.


A summary of the past year's various endeavors follows : number of visits to schools, 600; home visits, 201; exclusions for pediculosis, 31. All pediculosis cases were followed up, and all cases returned to school. Most of the schools at present, are 100% free from pediculosis.


Home visits for other cases follow: scarlet fever, 6; im- petigo, 10; chicken pox, 8; scabies, 4; mumps, 12; enlarged glands, 45 ; headache, 3; german measles, 25; rash, 2; enlarged tonsils, 15; poison ivy, 18; tooth ache, 3; whooping cough, 2; grippe, 5; unclean, 10; truancy, 5; not at home, 6; no shoes, 2; Chadwick Clinic, 27; defective vision, 2; underweight, 17.


All children in the grades, junior and senior high schools were given their annual physical examinations by the school doctors, a task in which I assisted. This extended through


27


REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE


1935]


September, October, November and December. Approximate- ly 3413 children received complete examinations.


Sixty two children were examined and X-rayed in the follow- up work of the Chadwick Clinic. Dr. Low of the Clinic, and Miss Stuart, nutrition worker for the Clinic, were more than pleased with the fine response given by parents who brought their children to the examinations.


Ten children were taken to the Essex County Sanitorium for examination in the spring, and six of these went to the Essex County Health Camp for the summer.


Contagious diseases were kept at a minimum during the year, and as each disease was reported and symptoms found, the child was referred to his school physician, and excluded from school if necessary.


At the Cliftondale School every Tuesday and Thursday morning, a dental clinic is conducted, at which I assist Dr. Beckman, the school dentist.


Health badges were awarded to 325 children for Child Health day.


Toxoid and toxin-antitoxin were given to 299 children for the prevention of diptheria by Dr. Davis of the Health Board.


Grade school children, as in previous years, were measured and weighed four times during the school year. Approximate- ly 1880 children were weighed and measured, of which number some 189 were found to be 7% underweight, 182 were 10% and 10 were 15% underweight.


We also followed the same procedure with 633 children in the Junior High School, of which number 44 were 7% under- weight, 42 were 10%, 16 were 15% and 30 were 15 plus per cent underweight.


Miss Griffin, supervisor of physical education, has done a great deal of the work of weighing and measuring children, as I assisted the school physicians in making their physical examinations.

OLIVE L. NEAL, R.N.

Report of Supervisor of Physical Education


Mr. Vernon W. Evans, Superintendent of Schools, Saugus, Mass.


DEAR SIR :-


I herewith submit my annual report as Supervisor of Phy- sical Education in the Saugus Elementary Schools.


The past year has been most successful in the progress of the Physical Education program carried on in the grades. There is:


1. A noticeable increase from year to year in the know- ledge and practice of health habits.


2. A constant decline in physical defects due to the check- up by the doctor and the follow-up work by the nurse.


3. A gradual increase in skill in games, folk-dances and other activities of each grade over that of the previous grade.


4. An increase in social adjustment from grade to grade. The spirit of fairness and sportsmanship increases steadily.


A visit is made to each school every two weeks. Outlines of the work to be covered are given to all teachers the first of each month. In selecting and arranging the material for the grades the following; points are kept in mind.


1. The type of activity.


2. The quantity.


3. Suitability to age characteristics.


4. Suitability to weather conditions, to playground and schoolroom.


5. Degree of participation by all children.


6. Progression from year to year.


7. Degree of joy in participation.


The child grows progressively in structure and in functional powers. His growth is tremendously influenced by his physical training activities. The most important for contributing to his normal development are his spontaneous play activities. These are conducted by the school under adult leadership in


29


REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE


1935]


order to establish play habits and ideals, which will function in the play life away from the school's influence.


During the baseball season the annual tournament was held in the sixth grades. The cup, which is awarded each year by the Playground Commissioners was won by the Roby School. Mr. George Nicholson made the presentation.


As in the past, I assist the school nurse in weighing and measuring the children at the end of each term.


For the assistance which the grade teachers have so will- ingly offered, the interest of the School Committee, and the encouragement from you, Mr. Evans, I am most appreciative.


Respectfully submitted,


CATHERINE R. GRIFFIN, Supervisor of Physical Education.


Report of Opportunity Class


Mr. Vernon W. Evans, Supt. of Schools,


Saugus, Mass.


DEAR SIR :-


I hereby submit my annual report as Opportunity Class teacher in Saugus.


The enrollment in both classes this year was considerably larger than that of any previous year since this class was organized in 1929.


Twenty one were admitted to each class in September. Since then three boys, who reached the age of sixteen years, were given working certificates and have secured positions, two boys have moved away from Saugus, and one girl, eighteen years of age, has left school. The present enrollment in each class is eighteen.


Mr. Evans found, at the High School, a steriopticon view camera, which has been mislaid and unused for years. He gave it to us with a set of blank plates for each class. Upon these plates either new or review work can be prepared in advance, to flash in magnified form on the board.


30


TOWN DOCUMENTS


[Dec. 31


A great deal of subject matter which has hitherto been reviewed orally can now be presented by the camera also, thus establishing visual as well as auditory images. Not only is it splendid for motivating group work, but it fills a need for more board space, as the yellow walls make a perfect background upon which to reflect written work and illustra- tions.


The school department appropriated money for handwork material this year.


The girls will get an invaluable training in sewing as Miss Douglass was formerly sewing instructor in the Junior High School.


There will be an exhibition of the children's handwork in June. Not only are the articles made, useful and attractive, but the results achieved in terms of self-reliance, pride, and self respect are of inestimable value.
