For the Year Ending December 31

SANDERSON BROTHERS NORTH ABINGTON, MASS.
REPORT OF THE SCITUATE SCHOOL COMMITTEE
To the Citizens of Scituate:
The Scituate School Committee submits its report for 1958 with the realization that many problems still face our town and its schools. We also feel that none is insurmountable.
Our problems seem to fall into two categories. First, there is the ever-increasing school population and the attendant difficulties experienced in providing adequate classroom space for all of our children. The second concern is with the furnishing of fine teachers and good educational opportunities for each student.
Our 1958 Town Meeting voted to have plans drawn for a new Senior High School and for a 10-room addition to the present Senior High School which would become the Scituate Junior High School. Articles will appear in the 1959 Town Warrant for the construction of these two projects. It was necessary to place the Junior-Senior High School on double sessions for 1958-1959 because of extreme over-crowding in the existing building. Double sessions will continue until such time as new construction is completed.
Our growth in school population has exceeded all estimates from year to year. The committee, as a result, is continuously facing new crises in classroom space.
The School Committee has tried to keep the educational needs of the student foremost in both thinking and planning. We are grateful to each teacher who has devotedly worked with our chil- dren at times in crowded situations and on double sessions.
Your School Committee has constantly reviewed the ever- changing needs and trends in Education. Curriculum studies are continuously in progress. Our educational program is reassessed often. Improvements and new plans are being carried out as we seek ways of providing better educational opportunities for each student in the Scituate Public Schools.
Your School Committee is especially grateful to the many towns- people who have supported the schools so consistently. Organiza- tions have presented scholarships; recognition and interest have been shown to athletic and other school programs; the P.T.A. has worked

closely with our schools, and the new Citizens' Committee for the Public Schools has given time and much effort in behalf of our schools. To these groups and all other citizens who have helped and supported our schools so wholeheartedly we are most grateful.
