Summer Term .- Whole number of scholars, 35. Average attendance, 283.
Winter Term .- Whole number of scholars, 44. Average attendance, 321.
Primary School .- This was assigned to its former teacher, Miss Lois B. Vining. It was no ordinary task for her to maintain its former reputation. It was, however, marked for its good order, and at the examinations, the different exercises reflected much credit upon the patience of the teacher in her efforts to secure disciplinc, correctness in reading, and the formation of good habits.

Summer Term .- Whole number of scholars, 53. Average attendance, 26+.
Winter Term .- Whole number of scholars, 42. Average attendance, 35+.
SECOND DISTRICT .- A Mixed School .- Miss L. A. Tirrell was appointed the teacher of this school. She fully sustained her reputation as an excellent teacher. Always gentle, deliberate and prompt, she did not fail to secure good government. The school has appeared well at the several times that it has been visited. Every thing indicated that the scholars (with few exceptions) prized their privileges, and with order and diligence were striving to improve their golden opportunities.
During the winter term the school was so large, that after it had been continued some weeks, it was deemed advisable to give Miss Tirrell an assistant. Miss E. White was so appointed, and gave great satisfaction in the discharge of her duties. We feel confident she will make an excellent teacher. The examinations were very satisfactory.
Summer Term .- Whole number of scholars, 48. Average attendance, 37.
Winter Term .- Whole number of scholars, 59. Average attendance, 40g.
THIRD DISTRICT .- Grammar Department .- Miss Mary D. Chellis and Miss Abby F. Crocker, teachers.
Whole number of scholars-Summer, 58; Winter, 58. Average attendance-Summer, 44; Winter, 40}.
This school has suffered materially the past year through a change of teachers. Miss Susan Pratt, under whose judicious management the school attained a very high degree of excellence last year, declined a re-election, and last spring the school was placed in charge of Miss Mary D. Chellis.
Miss Chellis came well recommended to the Committee, but she failed to secure the confidence and respect of her pupils, consequently her connection with the school proved unfortunate. Miss Chellis resigned her connection with the school at the close of the summer term, and Miss A. F. Crocker was appointed her successor.
Miss Crocker, having previously attained a high reputation as a teacher in Watertown and Somerville, your Committee had the fullest confidence of her success in this school, and the result proved that their confidence was not misplaced.
She found the school in a very bad condition, but she entered upon her duties with earnestness and zeal, and under her direction, notwith- standing many discouraging circumstances, the school has steadily improved.
36
Intermediate Department .- Miss Sarah E. Loud, teacher.
Whole number of scholars- Summer, 53; Winter, 56. Average attendance-Summer, 41++; Winter, 38++.
The condition of this school for the past year has not been entirely satisfactory to your Committee. The teacher has endeavored to perform her duty faithfully, but many unforeseen and unavoidable circumstances have tended to render her labors less successful than they otherwise would have been.
The closing examination, as a whole, was not quite satisfactory ; yet some of the classes appeared very well. The classes in Geography were pretty good, and one class just commencing English Grammar did them- selves and their teacher great credit.
Primary Department .- Mrs. S. E. Nash, teacher.
Whole number of scholars-Summer, 49; Winter, 48. Average attendance-Summer, 37; Winter, 34.
This has been an excellent school throughout the year. The teacher has shown great earnestness and zeal, as well as good judgment, in the discharge of her duties.
Good order has been steadily maintained, and the kindly feelings of the children secured. Commendable progress has been made in all the studies of the school, and at the closing examination the Committee found much to praise and nothing to censure.
First Division Sub-Primary Department .- Miss Mary C. Cow- ing, teacher.
Whole number of scholars-Summer, 51; Winter, 53. Average attendance-Summer, 39 ; Winter, 35.
Your Committee feel that scarcely too much can be said in commenda- tion of this school. Miss Cowing ever manifested a lively interest in her school, and, combining an unusual degree of mildness and firmness, she not only maintained perfect order, but secured the affectionate esteem of her pupils. The Committee were pleased to notice that the children had not only made great progress in their studies, but that they had been taught very many useful things not found in their books.
Second Division Sub-Primary Department .- Miss Maria L. Bates, teacher.
Whole number of scholars-Summer, 50; Winter, 44. Average attendance-Summer, 31; Winter, 29.
This school consisted mostly of children in the Alphabet and Primer. The teacher manifested great interest in her work; good order was maintained ; and commendable progress made in all their studies, for children so young.
The room in which this school was kept is dark, gloomy, and very inconvenient, wholly unfit for a school-room.
37
FOURTH DISTRICT .- Grammar Department .- Miss Lizzie W. John- son, teacher.
Summer Term .- Whole number of scholars, 38. Average attendance, 33.
Winter Term .- Whole number of scholars, 43. Average attendance, 37.
The appearance of this school, at the several visits of the Committee, during the summer term, was very gratifying. The order was generally good; and the teacher manifested much energy and zeal in the discharge of her duties. The classification of the school was excellent. Vigor and life characterized the recitations of the several classes during the year. At the closing examination the classes appeared well, giving evidence of faithfulness on the part of the teacher, and diligence on the part of the pupils. In particular, the exercises in Algebra, Arithmetic, Analysis and Reading, elicited much praise.
There was evidently a falling off in the order of the school during the winter term. The scholars, however, seemed, for the most part, intent upon their lessons, and often so intent, as to overlook the importance of a noiseless or quiet school. There was too much loud studying, and too many communications between the scholars, though the latter were, we trust, for the most part, in relation to their studies.
Primary Department .- Summer Term .- Whole number of scholars, 68. Average attendance, 49.
Winter Term .- Whole number, 55. Average attendance, 38.
The summer term was taught by Miss Mary Proctor. Notwithstand- ing a somewhat unfavorable mention of this school in the last report, it was thought best, as the teacher possessed qualifications which seemed to give a prospect of success, to continue her in the school, in hope of more efficient discipline in the future. We regret to say that our expectations were not realized.
Order, which is the basis of every school excellence, was very de- fective, though there seemed to be some improvement towards the close of the term. The teacher labored with commendable interest in the work intrusted to her; indeed, we have seldom seen a teacher more conscientiously devoted to her duties. Most of the classes ap- peared well at the examination, and considerable improvement was manifested.
For the winter term the school was assigned to Miss Emeline Preston. Whenever the Committee visited it, they found the teacher laboring untiringly to secure a better state of discipline, and to bring the school to a more systematic attention to its duties. Some unforeseen circum- stances operated somewhat unfavorably upon the school during the latter part of the term. These considered, the examination was all that could be expected. There was great improvement in the order of the school.
38
FIFTH DISTRICT .- Grammar Department .- This school has been under the care of Miss J. Frances Vining during the year, a teacher of much experience, well qualified, earnest and persistent. Indifference, sickness, and perhaps other causes resulting in the irregular attendance of many of the children, and some want of interest and manifest coöpe- ration on the part of some at least in the district, combined greatly to increase the labor of the teacher, and in no small degree to retard the progress of the school. Notwithstanding these difficulties, the order and discipline of the school have been uniformly good, the instruction thorough, the recitations generally correct, the interest of the school sustained to the end, the progress generally very gratifying, and it is believed the district cannot part with her services without hazarding great detriment to the school.
Primary Department .- This school has been under the instruction of Miss J. Ellen Reed, residing in the same district, and this was her first trial as a teacher. The school was large, and some of the causes affect- ing the Grammar School were felt in this. But the teacher in her quiet way, diligently and earnestly persevered in her work, overcoming diffi- culties, so that a manifest improvement has been visible at every subse- . quent visit. The order of the school has been very good, the progress very gratifying, and we believe Miss Reed has the ability to excel as a teacher.
SIXTH DISTRICT .- Grammar Department .- In order to secure the services of Mr. C. D. Pratt, 2d, for the year, the district voted to add to the appropriation from the town treasury, enough from the income of their fund, to meet the additional expense. The Committee were happy to continue in the school one who had taught it so successfully the preceding term. The general appearance of the school, at the several visitations, was satisfactory. The order was good, and the scholars were generally studious.
The examination at the close of the summer term was in many respects excellent. The more advanced classes acquitted themselves admirably. In some of the other classes there appeared to be a want of thoroughness.
The examination, at the close of the winter term, reflected great credit upon the teacher and the scholars. It evinced great thoroughness of instruction, and much progress in many of the studies. The per- formances of the more advanced classes were of uncommon excellence.
The proper place of ten or more of these scholars was the High School in Southi Weymouth, and had they been in it, they would have done it great credit, as well as added to its number, without diminishing the advantages of those connected with it, since they would not have
39
increased the number of classes. But being in this school, they have added several classes to it, to the disadvantage of the other scholars, they having been deprived of that portion of the teacher's time and attention really needed by them, which he was required to devote to these advanced classes.
Primary Department .- This school has been during the entire year under the charge of Mrs. M. A. Raymond, a native of the district. She entered upon her work with a determination to succeed. For several years previous, it had been under the management of Miss Elizabeth White, a very successful teacher. It was some weeks before the school recovered from the effects that necessarily followed a change of teachers. But by untiring energy on the part of Mrs. Raymond, it gradually improved in deportment, diligence in study, and prompt- ness of recitation.
Owing to a misunderstanding as to the time of the examination, (it being deemed best to have it before the long vacation, instead of the usual time in the fall,) the classes were allowed but very little time for review, and consequently some of the exercises at the closing examina- tion were not as good as should be desired, although, on the whole, the examination was fair. We think the teacher attempted to carry the scholars over rather too much ground to insure the thoroughness and readiness desirable. Whole number of scholars, 73; average attendance, 50.
On the first visit of the Committee after the commencement of the winter term, they discovered a decided improvement. The order of the school was superior to that of the preceding term, and the recitations were marked by accuracy and promptness. From that time until the close of the term, the school steadily improved. Particular attention was given to reading and spelling, and the exercises in these branches were highly gratifying. The improvement in reading was truly remark- able. As the school advanced, the enthusiasm increased, and at the closing examination, the exercises, almost without exception, were of a high order of excellence. Winter term-whole number of scholars, 70 ; average attendance, 39.
SEVENTH DISTRICT .- Grammar Department .- This school, for the greater part of the two preceding years, had been under the instruction of an able and efficient teacher, Mr. Henry F. Woodman. It being deemed expedient to reduce the wages of the Grammar schools to a uniform rate, Mr. Woodman's services could not be retained, and Miss M. W. Tinker, of Connecticut, late a graduate of the Mt. Holyoke Seminary, was employed in his place. She came to the task with good qualifications and an earnest and sincere desire to discharge her duties faithfully ; and few teachers have labored with more anxiety and perse-
40
verance. She continued through the summer and a larger part of the winter term, and with a measure of success. But the change from the discipline of a rigid and experienced male teacher, of great popularity, to that of a sensitive female, and a stranger, thie frequent interruptions from habitual non-attendance of the pupils, and from an alarming sickness that prevailed, an apparent lack of confidence in the teacher on the part of some in the district, and the accession to the school in the winter term of several older scholars, led to a degree of insubordination in the school, which induced her to ask to be released ; and Mr. Woodman, having just closed his school in another place, was employed to complete the term, which he has done with the same distinguished success that attended his former labors. And it is believed that under favorable circumstances, Miss Tinker would prove an excellent teacher.
Primary Department .- One division of this school has been under the instruction of Miss S. Louisa Vining, a resident of the district. Though it was her first effort in teaching, she entered on her work with entire self-command, which was at once felt by the whole school, securing excellent order. Her mode of instruction was good. The school made gratifying progress ; and her energy, efficiency, and success afford ground to expect that she will prove herself one of our ablest teachers.
Branch Primary School .- This school was taught in the summer by Miss Elizabeth Torrey, one of our most experienced and successful teachers. Her affectionate interest in her scholars was reciprocated by their love and confidence. The order of the school was perfect. Tlie pupils were interested in their studies, and made rapid progress. It was a great disappointment to the teacher and pupils that an examination was prevented by her illness.
After a suitable vacation, Miss Maria A. Blanchard, from the High School, was employed to take Miss Torrey's place till her health should permit her to return to the school. But her illness continuing, Miss Blanchard remained in charge of the school through the term. Although this was her first school, yet she governed and taught it in a manner that was highly creditable. The order was excellent. The scholars were inter- ested in their studies, and the closing examination was deserving of the high commendation which it received. Some of the scholars, particularly the younger ones, had made very great progress.
EIGHTH DISTRICT .- Grammar Department .- This school, on Pond Street, during the summer term, was under the instruction of Miss Susan M. Torrey, a deservedly popular and successful teacher. Under lier efforts, the school made commendable progress; and the district was sorry to lose her valuable services.
41
During the winter term, the school was under the management of Miss P. B. Shaw, from the High School in South Weymouth. She was young and inexperienced in teaching, and there was some disturbance, which threatened for a time the overthrow of her authority. But her energy was equal to the emergency, and her school was a success. Promptness in recitation was a marked characteristic. There was at the closing examination some indistinctness in articulation, which fault needs especial attention. Her continuance in this school promises flattering results.
Primary Department .- This school, during the summer term, was in the hands of Miss L. A. Paddock, who has a peculiar faculty to impart instruction to children. After this term closed, she made known her determination to leave town, and we were reluctantly obliged to part with her.
Her place was supplied, during the winter term, by Miss Hattie Far- rington, from the South Weymouth High School; and although the dawn of her school was inauspicious, it closed with a satisfactory exami- nation.
The School on Randolph Street .- This has been under the charge of Miss L. A. Bradford during the whole year. It is a Mixed school. The order has been excellent, showing on the part of the teacher a wonderful faculty in obtaining the perfect obedience of her pupils, without resorting to severity. And while in this respect the school has been all that could be desired, in some respects it has not come up to the wishes of the Committee. Considerable improvement has been made in Reading by the smaller scholars, but in Spelling and Arithmetic the school is deficient. The teacher evidently has not required that correctness of recitation that is desirable in all our schools.
NINTH DISTRICT .- Grammar Department .- Summer term-whole number of scholars, 49 ; average atttendance, 32. Winter term-whole number, 36; average attendance, 31.
The school was again committed to the care of Miss Mary T. Clapp, the faithful and assiduous teacher of the previous year. The same earnest purpose was manifested which characterized the previous efforts of this teacher, and received such high commendation. She aimed, in imparting instruction, at thoroughness ; and the results were very grati- fying.
The happiest relation appeared to exist between the teacher and pupils. The order was good. At the examinations the several classes appeared well, particularly those in Book-keeping, Grammar, and Algebra. Indeed, all the advanced classes received unqualified praise. Favorable mention, also, should be made of the written exercises in
6
42
spelling, which were presented for examination. A high order of excel- lence was attained.
Intermediate Department .- Summer term-whole number of scholars, 49 ; average attendance, 41. Winter term-whole number of scholars, 54; average attendance, 37.
This school was placed under the care of Miss Anna E. Wright, who had charge of the Upper Primary Division during the previous year. She entered upon her duties with an earnest purpose to succeed, and if possible, to carry the school forward to a high degree of excellence. Soon after the commencement of the term, it became apparent to the Committee that the order of the school was not of a character to be commended, and though the teacher applied herself earnestly to secure a better state of discipline, there was not much improvement made. The teacher was persevering in her efforts to achieve success, and if she failed to do so, it may be accounted for in part, if not wholly, by the state of her health, which was seriously impaired during the most of the term. There was also on the part of most of the pupils, an apparent want of interest in their studies.
At the closing examination, several of the classes appeared very well indeed, especially those in Colburn's, and the advanced classes in Reading. The Writing-books were generally neatly kept. The atten- tion of those interested is called to the fact that there is a sad and increasing amount of truancy and rude behavior connected with this school, which the efforts of teachers and Committee have failed to remedy. We entreat parents and guardians to exercise a more vigilant care over those intrusted to their charge.
At the close of the summer term, Miss Wright resigned her connec- tion with the school, and Miss Elizabeth White was appointed her successor. She found the school in a very disorderly condition, and although she labored most faithfully, she was unequal to the difficult task of improving, to any great extent, the character of the school. She failed to secure the respect of her pupils ; consequently the order remained defective, though during the last few weeks of the term, some improvement was made.
Upper Primary Division .- Miss Maria D. Nash, teacher.
Summer Term .- Whole number of scholars, 56. Average attendance, 34.
Winter Term .- Whole number of scholars, 58. Average attendance, 44++.
In consequence of the promotion of the former teacher to the Inter- mediate Department, it became necessary to select a new teacher for this school. The Committee made choice of Miss Maria D. Nash, a
43
graduate of our High School, who, though young and inexperienced, it was thought would do well in this department.
The school was somewhat disorderly at the commencement of the first term, and the teacher had many discouragements, yet by vigorous efforts, a good degree of order was secured, and during the latter part of the term, the discipline was well nigh perfect. Great pains were taken on the part of the teacher to secure good articulation, and attention to the pauses in Reading. The results were very gratifying. The winter term was in keeping, in every respect, with the latter part of the previous one. The exercises of both examinations were highly creditable, both to pupils and teacher, and received a due amount of commendation.
Lower Primary Division .- Summer Term .- Whole number of scholars, 83. Average attendance, 60.
Winter Term .- Whole number of scholars, 92. Average attendance, 70
The teacher, Miss Sarah A. White, entered, at the summer term, upon her third year's labor in this department. She was animated with the same zeal which had, in the two previous years, secured such a satisfac- tory degree of success. And the Committee expected, with her increased experience, a degree of excellence, more commendable, if possible. They were not disappointed. Though the school was large, the discipline was good, mild yet firm, and the method of instruction well adapted to the minds of her charge. The appearance of the school at the usual visita- tions, and at the closing examinations, showed that the efforts of the teacher had been eminently successful, and they received warm approval.
The number of scholars was so large at the commencement of the winter term, that it was found necessary to employ an assistant ..
Accordingly Miss - Clapp, a young lady residing in the district, was put in charge of thirty or more of the pupils in the adjoining recita- tion room. She labored diligently, and to the satisfaction of the Com- mittee, for her little charge, and proved a very efficient aid to the Principal of the school.
TENTH DISTRICT .- Grammar Department .- Whole number of schol- ars-Summer, 43; Winter, 56. Average attendance-Summer, 33 ; Winter, 38. Miss Ursula K. Fletcher, teacher.
Under the charge of Miss Fletcher, this school maintains a good rank among the Grammar schools in town. . The order has ever been excel- lent, and the teaching thorough and accurate. The examination at the close of the summer term was, in all respects, satisfactory, and at the close of the winter term, although not so perfect in all respects, the per- formances were better than we had reason to expect, when we consider the serious interruptions the school sustained from sickness during the middle and latter part of the term.
44
Primary Department .- Miss M. Augusta Fay, teacher. Whole num- ber of scholars-Summer, 44; Winter, 39. Average attendance- Summer, 28++; Winter, 24+.
Miss Fay, who won such high commendations from the Committee a year ago, has fully sustained her character as a first-rate teacher the past year. Under her efficient management, this has, indeed, been a superior school in every respect.
During the winter, diptheria prevailed to an alarming extent in this district, rendering it necessary to close this school, without examination, a month before the time allotted.
ELEVENTH DISTRICT .- Mixed School .- The school in this district is not graded, and, like all similar schools, has had almost as many classes as scholars.
At the commencement of the year, the Committee secured the services of Mr. W. H. Alden, of Bridgewater, a graduate of the State Normal School at that place, to teach for the year. Mr. Alden seemed to throw his whole soul into his arduous work, and to spare no pains on his part to raise the standing of the school. We have had few harder workers in our schools ; he even devoted the recesses to recitations. He aimed at thoroughness in discipline and study, and imparted much instruction not contained in the text-books. It was soon apparent that he was not receiving the sympathy of a considerable portion of the district, nor the affections of the scholars, as is desirable. He became somewhat dis- heartened, and asked to be released from his engagement at the close of the summer term, and it was thought best to grant his request. The closing examination was very good, the school showing a marked improvement.
Length of term, twenty-four weeks. Whole number of scholars, 65. Average attendance, 43.
The winter term commenced with Miss Almira T. Partridge, of Abington, as teacher. Under her charge the school opened fairly, and the good will of a large portion of the scholars was secured. Soon after the commencement of the term, the health of the teacher began to fail, and after teaching eight weeks, acting under the advice of her physician she resigned, leaving the term unfinished. At this time the Committee were fortunate in securing for the remainder of the term the services of Miss S. Louisa Vining, a native of the town, who had just completed a term in one of the Primary departments of the Seventh District. She entered upon her duties February 11th. Considering the unfavorable circumstances under which she commenced the school, she has met with fine success, the school appearing as well during the visitations of the Committee as at any former time during the year. We would take this
45
opportunity to suggest to the members of this district the necessity of giving their hearty cooperation to their teachers, and we are confident that they will see its immediate good effects on their schools. The influence of parents on the teacher is beyond computation.
The school is unfinished at the time of making this report.
