SCHOOL COMMITTEE REPORT
REPORT OF THE SCHOOL NURSE
Mr. Harold C. Wingate Superintendent of Schools Scituate, Massachusetts
Dear Sir:
The school health service program is but one phase of com- munity health work. This program has been given more or less in detail in several of my reports during the past eighteen years. Parents who are community health minded have access to this refer- ence material in their town reports. Those who are not familiar with the program may get some idea of it from the partial list of routine procedures given as follows.
Assisting physician and dentist in clinic for pre-school chil- dren.
Assisting physician with examinations of school children.
Assisting in dental clinics in elementary schools.
Keeping physical and dental records.
Follow up visits for correction of defects, and in the interest of prevention and control of communicable diseases.
Sanitary inspections of school buildings.
Inspections of individuals and groups.
Health instructions to individuals and groups.
Home visits whenever possible in cases of reported illness.
Home visits for prevention of truancy.
Hospital clinic visits.
Transportation to tuberculosis, child guidance and speech clinics. Follow up visits on the cases.
First aid treatments in cases of illness or accidents.
Replenishing of supplies, and so on.
To the best of my knowledge, Scituate has been free from epidemics or threatened epidemics of communicable diseases with the possible exception of common colds.

SCHOOL COMMITTEE REPORT
All children who were suspected as a source of danger to the health of others were excluded. They were checked before re- admittance to the class rooms.
There was no justification for reports that pediculosis appeared as a major problem in the schools. Few parents failed to give their cooperation in our plan of control. Every parent should be aware of the ever present possibility that a child may come in contact with lice. This contact may be made far remote from the schools. Therefore it behooves every parent to take over the duty of a two minute inspection of hair and scalp at least once or twice weekly. It is as much their responsibility to do this as it is to provide other essentials which contribute to the child's health and happiness.
To parents and members of the school personnel, I wish to express my sincere thanks for their very generous cooperation dur- ing the year.
Respectfully submitted, MARGARET J. O'DONNELL, R. N.,
School Nurse.
