of bringing home students who are not physically able to continue the day's program.
Giving advice on matters of general health and hygiene, making home visits on long absentees, and checking the physical conditions of those pupils returning after long illnesses round out the nurse's duties.

REPORT OF THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL NURSE
Mr. Edward K. Chace Superintendent of Schools Scituate, Massachusetts
Dear Mr. Chace:
No one can more fully appreciate the Reorganization of the School Health Council, than I. The School Health Council reor- ganization took place last fall, and to some extent has already been publicized. Getting the council to function again after a set-back of several years, gives rise to the hope that it will set the pattern for an adequate community health program and eventually bring about the organization of a Community Health Council. Much has been done by the school in the effort to reach this goal, but much re- mains to be done, and too much time has been lost for lack of interest by those who held leadership.
Scituate must have coordinated health services if the school health education programs are to keep pace with community growth and expectations.
The health of the school child has long been recognized as the first of the cardinal principles of education. Health is listed first in a specific set of objectives for general education. School admin- istrators and surveys have shown that programs are sometimes poorly organized, are limited in scope and in general unproductive of better health.
Helping children to understand life and to face its problems with courage and confidence, and to prepare them to take their places later in the community as capable adult citizens, is of vital importance.
38
SCHOOL COMMITTEE REPORT
During 1952, all of the problems and referral cases of the school children were met and cared for in accordance with the suggested standing orders for nursing procedures set up and recom- mended by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health. There is never a dull moment in the Health Unit of the Elementary School.
With sincere appreciation for the cooperation of parents, pupils, and fellow workers.
Respectfully submitted, MARGARET J. O'DONNELL, R.N.
REPORT OF THE DRIVER-TRAINING INSTRUCTOR
Mr. Edward K. Chace Superintendent of Schools Scituate, Massachusetts
Dear Mr. Chace:
The Driver-Training course offered as an extra-curricular activ- ity in the High School is well into its fifth year since the course was resumed early in 1948. During this period we have had the added advantage of the use of a new dual-control car which has been provided each year through the cooperation of local dealers in Cohasset, Marshfield and Scituate.
At the time the course was resumed in 1948 an agreement was reached among the Superintendents of the above-mentioned towns providing for the purchase of a dual-control car and its rotation for use among the three towns. As a result, each town uses the car for one week and passes it along to the next town so that its use is dis- tributed as equally as possible.
To coordinate our classroom part of the program with the actual behind-the-wheel instruction given in the dual-control car, we have conducted a class period once each week after school dur- ing the two-week period when the car is being used by the other towns. The classwork periods are devoted to the development of good driving skills and attitudes, taking care of an automobile, the fundamentals of driving, rules of the road and highway traffic laws. The behind-the-wheel period is spent in the practical application of the classroom principles.
39
SCHOOL COMMITTEE REPORT
At present we are conducting two courses each school year. However, each course has to be limited to twenty students. At the end of each course, a Registry of Motor Vehicles inspector is invited to come to our school to give road tests to those students qualified to take the examinations for a driver's license.
During the week prior to Christmas vacation this year, we had the good fortune to have the Traffic Safety Education program spon- sored by the Atlantic Refining Company conducted at our school. During that week fifty-six of our licensed students throughout the school were road-tested on many points of good driving. The re- sults of these tests were generally quite gratifying and the program did much to arouse interest in the importance of traffic safety among our young drivers.
I would like to close this report with a word of thanks to all who have cooperated in working out the many problems in offering driver-training to our High School students. It is a step toward reducing accidents and lowering auto insurance rates.
Respectfully submitted,
CLARENCE O. ATKINSON, Driver-Training Instructor
REPORT OF HIGH SCHOOL LIBRARIAN
Mr. Edward K. Chace Superintendent of Schools Scituate, Massachusetts
Dear Mr. Chace:
The Scituate High School Library consists of approximately 1700 volumes, catalogued and arranged on the shelves according to the Dewey Decimal System of Classification. The library also sub- scribes to seven magazines and to Readers' Guide to Periodical Literature.
During cach study period two student librarians are responsible for checking books and keeping the shelves orderly. Others assist be- fore school and during home room periods. A senior typist prepares catalog cards for each new book. These assistants are usually busy since the library is well patronized by the student body.
40
SCHOOL COMMITTEE REPORT
Each year it is the policy to add books on all levels of reading as well as research material of value to different departments. To encourage the younger readers, two subscriptions to the Junior Literary Guild are maintained, thus adding a new book each month for the girls and, as of 1952-53, one also for the boys. During the past year special attention has been given to adding to the fiction, biography, and science shelves. Two sets of reference books have been replaced: The Encyclopaedia Britannica and The Book of Popular Science. Two periodicals are recent additions: Newsweek and Natural History.
Every year sees a need for more and more books (1) to aid the students in improving their reading ability and background, (2) to stimulate an interest in good books, (3) to teach pupils how to locate information, and (4) to encourage them to think for them- selves and to obtain as much as possible from their high school education. The trend is toward a growing library for a growing school.

REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR OF INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC
Mr. Edward K. Chace Superintendent of Schools Scituate, Massachusetts
Dear Mr. Chace:
Following is a report of the activities of the Instrumental Music Department.
The program at the Central Elementary School provides for in- struction on all recognized band and orchestral instruments. Weekly class lessons are given with opportunity for full band ensemble. Instruction has necessarily been limited to pupils of the fifth and sixth grades due to a one day schedule in this building.
Four days are given to similar but smaller class instruction in the Junior and Senior High School. The orchestra is limited in size because of the small number of string players. This organization has appeared at several evening school functions. It joined with
41
SCHOOL COMMITTEE REPORT
the band and choral groups for the annual spring concert. The band has played for football rallies and games and municipal parades. They participated in the Southeastern Music Festival in Middleboro and at the Plymouth County Teachers' Convention in Brockton. Several players were chosen to appear with the All-State Band in Framingham and the All-New England Band in Boston. Smaller instrumental groups have been called upon to play for other school and municipal functions.
The success of this program has been insured by the coopera- tion given to me by the principals and the teachers.
Respectfully submitted,
B. NORMAN DICKINSON, Director of Instrumental Music
REPORT OF SUPERVISOR OF VOCAL MUSIC
Mr. Edward K. Chace Superintendent of Schools Scituate, Massachusetts
Dear Mr. Chace:
It is a pleasure to report to you on the vocal music program in the Scituate schools.
The objective toward which we are aiming is the development of a real love of good music on the part of each child. It is with this in mind that every child from kindergarten through high school is given the opportunity to participate in what is probably the most satisfying form of musical activity-singing. Every student is given the chance to express himself vocally, regardless of how pleasing his voice may be. While we endeavor to develop voices that will be pleasant to listen to, we realize that it is that satisfaction that comes from singing, especially in groups, that is important.
We are deeply indebted to the Parent-Teacher Association for their recent gift of a number of records. We are looking forward to making great use of them in an expanded listening program. It is our hope that the experience of listening to worthwhile music of all kinds will inspire the students to explore music more and more as they get older and thus lead them to an emotionally and spiritually balanced life.
42
SCHOOL COMMITTEE REPORT
May I express my sincere gratitude to you, Mr. Chace, to Mr. Froberger and Mr. Fuller, and to the teachers for your help and cooperation.

GERTRUDE M. REYNOLDS, Supervisor of Vocal Music
REPORT OF HIGH SCHOOL CAFETERIA MANAGER
Mr. Edward K. Chace
Superintendent of Schools
Scituate, Massachusetts
Dear Mr. Chace:
About five years ago the High School cafeteria started on the Federal Lunch Program. This program provides for government reimbursement on each meal served. For the Class A lunch, con- sisting of 2 oz. protein, 3/4 cup of fruit or vegetable, one serving of bread and butter, 1/2 pint of milk, the child pays twenty cents and the government reimburses the cafeteria nine cents on each meal. We also serve the Class A without milk for which the child pays fifteen cents and we are reimbursed seven cents. A child buying just milk (Class C lunch) pays five cents and we are reimbursed two cents on each bottle served. There are, at present, about four times as many students taking advantage of this program as when we started.
At the present time we are very limited for space and facilities. We are hoping that when these difficulties are remedied we shall increase the number participating in the program.
I would like at this time to express my gratitude to my co- workers and to all those who have helped in our lunch program.
Respectfully submitted,
ANNIE M. BARRY, Cafeteria Manager
