REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE


1937]


Report of the Superintendent of Schools


To the Honorable School Committee and Citizens of Saugus:


It is both the duty and the privilege of the Superinten- dent of Schools to submit his fifth annual report for the School Department, the same being the forty-fifth annual report.


The 1937 Budget


At the annual March Town Meeting of 1937 the School Department was voted a general budget of $211,000, and a repair budget of $4,000.


For the fifth consecutive year the School Committee is pleased to announce that the department will finish the year within its general appropriation. This is a record of which the School Committee, and the Superintendent of Schools, are justly proud.


The repair budget of 1937 was $1,000 less than that of 1936. This reduction represented a cut of twenty per cent. from the 1936 budget, which in itself was inadequate. The School Department has found it necessary to seek two trans- fers from the Finance Committee which will probably total about $785.00.


The School Committee again calls attention to the cit- izens the fact that such small repair budgets are not in reality a saving. They virtually allow for the making of emergency repairs only. School property cannot be properly main- tained on such appropriations.


Saugus school property is easily worth one million dol- lars. This is the property of the citizens of the Town of Saugus. It is good business on your part to protect a million- dollar investment. It cannot be properly protected on a repair appropriation of $5,000 a year.


8


TOWN DOCUMENTS


[Dec. 31


To list the needed repairs for 1938 would require too much space in this report. Needless to say the list is a lengthy one.


The School Committee is still of the opinion that school buildings should be kept in repair. It cannot be done with- out money. It is your property. The committee can keep it in repair only to the extent that you allow.


Scholastic Standing


Scholastically our schools remain at a high standard. In 1937 Saugus High School was again rated a Class A High School by the State Department of Education. We hope it will again be so rated in 1938.


One of the conditions, however, for such a rating is as follows:


"Exclusive of the principal, the number of teachers in the school should be such that in general the ratio of pupils in the membership of the school to teachers does not exceed thirty to one."


For the past several years in the Senior High School the ratio of pupils to teachers has been slightly in excess of this requirement. In order to reduce the ratio we added two new teachers to the High School staff in 1937. Then in Sep- tember, 1937, we had an increase in the pupil enrollment of approximately one hundred which offset the two-teacher ad- dition. In order to keep the ratio near to thirty to one I shall recommend to the School Committee that they add an- other teacher to the staff in January, 1938. To actually get down to the thirty to one ratio one, and perhaps two, more teachers should be added in September 1938. I am aware of the fact that these teacher additions will add a substan- tial amount of money to the 1938 general budget. It must be done, however, or we run the risk of losing our Class A rating for Saugus High School. The State Department of Education has been very fair with Saugus during recent years.


In 1934 the privilege of certifying our graduates to some fourteen leading colleges, which are members of the


9


REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE


1937]


New England College Entrance Board, was renewed for four years, or until 1938. Four-year renewals are only granted to high schools whose scholastic standing is unquestionable. I believe that we will receive a four-year renewal in 1938.


In the past seventeen years I have known of only one Saugus High School graduate who has failed in college after being certified to colleges in this group. I wonder how many high schools can point to a better record ?


It is also an established fact that graduates of Saugus High School who have entered the various State Teacher Colleges have made very creditable scholastic records.


Textbook Program


Good textbooks are essential to the maintenance of a good school system.


When I became Superintendent of Schools in 1933 I made a survey of the textbooks in use in our system and found them, as a whole, to be poor. I immediately planned a five-year textbook replacement program to be started in 1933 and completed in 1937. That program was started in 1933 and was completed in 1937. Here is what we have done :


(a) Installed the Elson-Gray basal reading system in all the elementary schools of the Town from Grades I through VI.


(b) Installed the Atwood-Thomas basal geography series in all the elementary schools of the Town from Grades IV through VII.


(c) Installed the Winston Triangle Arithmetic basal se- ries in all the elementary schools of the Town from Grades III through VIII.


(d) Installed the language series "Growth in English," basally in all the elementary schools of the Town from Grades III through VIII.


(e) Installed the World Book Company's new spelling


10


TOWN DOCUMENTS


[Dec. 31


series in all the elementary schools of the Town from Grades III through V.


(f) Replaced hundreds of old worn out music books in various grades with new up-to-date music books.


(g) Replaced hundreds of ancient and worn out supple- mentary readers in the grades with the newest and best sup- plementary readers obtainable.


(h) Replaced thousands of Senior High textbooks and Junior High textbooks so that now in the Central Senior and Junior High School we have less than 1500 textbooks out of approximately 8000 which were published more than five years ago.


(i) Instituted libraries in several of the elementary school buildings and equipped them with modern up-to-date textbooks and reference books.


(j) Rearranged the library in the Central Senior and Junior High School and have already commenced equipping it with the best of recent reference book material.


(k) Installed Elson-Gray Reading Workbooks in all double first and second grades in the Town.


I have no hesitancy in saying that this above five year textbook program has immeasurably raised our scholastic standard and given the school system textbooks which need no apologies from anyone. Our problem during the next five years is to replace where necessary and install still better textbooks as they are printed. I would be interested to learn of any school system that has accomplished a better pro- gram of textbook replacement over a five year period with the same amount of money available.


OTHER IMPROVEMENTS


Many other improvements have been accomplished dur- ing the five year period 1933-1937: Space permits me to list only a few of the most important.


(1). School grounds have been beautified as well as made more safe for children.


11


REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE


1937]


Previous to 1933 our school grounds were anything but areas of beauty. Today most of them excel those of our neighboring communities. I cite the High School, the Cen- tral Junior High School, the Roby School, the Lynnhurst School, the North Saugus School, the Armitage School, the Cliftondale School, the Sweetser School, the Felton School and the Ballard School. By beautifying the front areas we have compelled the children to play in the rear areas away from the danger of darting into traffic on the main thorough- fares.


(2). Every inch of ceiling in every schoolhouse has been repainted.


This has been accomplished under the Federal W. P. A. Program at negligible expense to the town.


(3). Every schoolhouse in town has been painted two: coats on both the inside and the outside of the buildings.


This was accomplished under the Federal Work Relief program at small expense to the town. . 1


(4). Every schoolhouse in town has had all interior woodwork revarnished.


This was accomplished under the Federal Work Relief program at small expense to the town.


(5). More than 3000 pupil's desks were refinished.


This was accomplished under the Federal Work Relief program at small expense to the town. It resulted in length- ening the life of these desks about 15 years.


(6). Practically every typewriter in the commercial department of the high school has been replaced.,


It might be interesting to know that some of these ma- chines had not been replaced for sixteen or seventeen years.


(7). Other new machines have been purchased for the commercial department of the high school.


(8). A sick or hospital room has been installed and equipped for students of the Central Senior and Junior High School.


:12


TOWN DOCUMENTS

NEED OF A VOCATIONAL SCHOOL


The time has arrived when Saugus should have a voca- tional or trade school. Our Senior High School now num- bers approximately 1000 students. It is strictly an academic type of high school giving an excellent general education as well as preparing for institutions of higher learning. It offers virtually no courses for training for the practical arts and specific vocations.


Thinking citizens will agree that many of the 1000 stu- dents now in our High School. will never attend higher insti- tutions of learning. The general education is highly desir- able but it may not directly help many students to earn a living in later life. Many high school students, especially boys, are manually inclined and obviously fitted for vocational training. They are not interested in Latin, French, History or perhaps many of the other subjects offered in our High School. They would be interested in mechanics, carpentry and woodworking, sheet metal working, automobile repair- ing, printing and courses along these lines. Our High School offers no such courses. Neither has it the space, facilities, equipment or personnel for their introduction. Therefore students vocationally inclined have little or no opportunity to receive the training to which I believe they are entitled. They may, it is true, enter an outside vocational school such as the trade schools in Boston, Beverly, Everett, Somerville and other cities. In such cases the Town of Saugus pays the tui- tion and receives a one-half reimbursement from the Com- monwealth. Relatively few students, however, can avail themselves of this opportunity since there are transportation

and other costs involved which must be borne by the parents of the students.


One thing is most certain. A boy or girl vocationally in- clined should have the same opportunity to develop his or her talents as a boy or girl who may be academically inclined. In our high school they do not have the same opportunity. Because of a lack of interest in the regular subjects of the curriculum they frequently leave high school as soon as le- gally possible and become what might be termed "maladjust- ment cases." If they remain in high school they are not in- terested and usually develop into behavior problems. It does not necessarily follow that because students cannot master certain subjects that they are devoid of brains. On the con- trary they have brains but they may not be attuned to the interest of academic subjects. Many a brilliant surgeon, in- ventor, and scientist exhibited scant brilliancy while students in academic high schools.


I have given this matter much thought and considera- tion. In the interest of equality of opportunity for all boys and girls of high school age I most earnestly again suggest that Saugus citizens entertain the idea of establishing a vo- cational school. Much of the cost of such a school, under present conditions, would be shared by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and by the Federal Government.


NEW BUILDING CONSTRUCTION NEEDED


It may not be popular to say so but the time has come when the Town of Saugus must do one of two things :


(1). Erect a new Senior High School building on a new site.


(2). Remodel, add additions to and make other build- ing changes in the present Central Senior and Junior High School structure.


My estimate of the cost of either of the above alterna- tives is close to $500,000.

REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE


1937]


Citizens, however, may as well face the facts and not, like the ostrich, hide their heads in the sand. Problems are not solved by this method.


Let us look at the facts.


In 1927, ten years ago, the Senior High School had an enrollment of 513 students. Today in 1937 the enrollment is 1013 students.


Now the building itself has not grown in those ten years. Therefore the same building is housing 500 more students than in the year 1927. That only means one situation and that is a crowded condition. Another year or two of in- creased enrollment and we shall be back on the two platoon system again.


The issue is simple. It is either for the citizens to au- thorize new building construction or accept conditions as they are and make no complaints.


The School Committee in 1937 submitted a $500,000 building proposition to P. W. A. authorities in Washington. Plans called for the building of a 27-room addition on the side of the present structure towards Central street and a gymnasium and shop on the side of the present structure towards Winter street. The present structure also to be re- modeled so as to provide modern classroom and laboratory facilities. Evidently the project is still in Washington. The above plan, however, is one way of solving the existing situa- tion.
