REPORT OF THE SCHOOL COMMITTEE


To the Citizens of Weymouth :


The past year, like the year before, saw a considerable increase in the number of pupils in the public schools. This increase over the membership of two years ago is about 500. In a very short time school attendance will exceed 4,000, and during the coming year the membership of the High School will be over 1,000.


At present, with the aid of two-room portables at the High, Nevin and Pratt, all scholars are properly seated, but nowhere, except át North Weymouth, is there any room for the numbers that will shortly come. The new Bicknell School is filled to its normal capacity with nearly 300 pupils, while the Athens, with over 320, has but one regular school-room in reserve.


The shop, now nearing completion, will allow some room for the expected increase at the High School. Additional room must pres- ently be provided the grades in East Weymouth, and in the neighbor- hood of the Pratt School. A remodeling or enlargement of the Franklin School in East Weymouth would be inadvisable. We rec- ommend a further enlargement of the High School for the purpose of taking the higher grades of East Weymouth, leaving the other schools exclusively for the lower grades, and the abandonment of the Franklin as a school house.
