TOWN OF SCITUATE ANNUAL REPORT
SOUTH SHORE REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT COMMITTEE
Our first year of operation has been most gratifying. During the 1962-1963 school year we had an enrollment of 129 in nine day courses and 80 in the trade extension evening school.
During the summer and fall of 1963 we enrolled 32 in a manpower retraining program in Metal Fabrication and Precision Sheet Metal. Of the original enrollees 23 were placed. Financially the course was very helpful since we received $29,000.00 for specialized equipment for permanent installation.
In September 1963 we enrolled 82 first year pupils and 107 second year pupils. In the evening school we had an enrollment of 118 in 8 courses.
Our staff now consists of the director, 19 teachers and 12 non-teaching em- ployees including one part-time nurse and three part-time bus drivers.
Our athletic program has been restricted by the small enrollment but will expand in the next few years. This year we will offer soccer, basketball and baseball.
Our financial picture has improved rapidly. In our first year of operation the per pupil cost was very high because of the high initial cost of "setting up house- keeping," the enrollment of only first year pupils and deferred State reimburse- ments. Our per pupil budget for the fiscal year 1964 is about $750.00. We hope to see this significantly reduced in 1965. The complete financial picture is given in the District Treasurer's report.
On January 20th we held open house and dedication exercises at which the Commissioner of Education, Dr. Owen B. Kiernan and Mr. Walter J. Markham, State Director of Vocational Education, were speakers. About 3,000 persons visited the school on that day. We have had frequent visitors during the year, some from as far away as Brazil and Puerto Rico.
In June we will graduate our first class. It will be composed of 2nd year post graduate pupils in electronics, and one group of Seniors in automotive repair.
This year the Advisory Committee of local business men and tradesmen were organized. The Committee will meet and visit the school, reviewing our course offerings and give constructive advice on our operations.
We look forward to the next few years when our graduates will take their places in our community and feel sure that they will be welcomed by the labor market.
Respectfully submitted,
NELS H. SANDBERG

TOWN OF SCITUATE ANNUAL REPORT
MESSAGE FROM THE
SCITUATE SCHOOL COMMITTEE
Dear Fellow Citizens,
In one sense 1963 for the Scituate Public Schools was more of the same - more children, for the sixteenth consecutive year. Statistically, we now have almost 4,000 students, 10.4% more than a year ago. About two thirds of the in- crease resulted from the difference in size between the incoming kindergarten class and the outgoing senior class - 375 vs. 130. The rest resulted from new children entering at various grade levels. This pattern has existed for a number of years and will continue for several more. Next fall we can expect another in- crease of about 8% and, of these 325 additional students, about 220 will represent the difference between the new kindergarten and the present Grade 12.
As predicted a year ago, the completion of the new Hatherly School did not solve the elementary housing problem; the entire 6th grade of 300 students is still housed in the junior high school. At the March Town Meeting we voted to proceed with plans for a fifth elementary school. It will be almost an exact duplicate of the Hatherly School and will be called the Cushing School, after William Cushing, first Chief Justice of the Massachusetts Supreme Court. This school, which can be ready for use by September 1965, will provide sufficient elementary space, and perhaps a little to spare, for the first time in seven years.
Meanwhile we will have reached another critical point in secondary housing. Both the senior and junior high schools have effective capacities of about 800, and by 1966 neither will be able to handle Grade 9, which we have considered a junior high grade but have had to house in the high school ever since that building was completed. In either school Grade 9 would push the enrollment over 1,000. The School Committee believes that the sensible solution would be to consider Grade 9 permanently a part of the high school and proceed to build the wing the high school was designed to receive. Accordingly, the Committee will request funds for plan- ning this wing at the March 1964 Town Meeting. If it is accepted, the construction can be completed by September, 1966 and we shall have, for the first time since 1947, enough space for all children and all grades.
In another sense the year 1963 was wholly different from prior years. It was a year of heartening advance in many areas of our educational program; indeed, it was an exhilarating year for the Committee. In following pages Dr. Grandy will discuss some of these changes and innovations, but we sense that many of you, even without reading them, are already aware of this forward movement. We have heard numerous comments and observations of parents; we have seen students returning from private and parochial schools; and we have noted a remarkable increase in one year in the proportion of new families moving to Scituate from outside New England. (The last point is significant because these primarily are people transferred by their companies, and most of them shop carefully and knowl- edgeably for schools when moving to a new area.)

Your School Committee is intent on sustaining our present rate of academic growth and development. Two conditions will permit it: adequate housing and your continued interest, support, and encouragement. We look to the future with confidence.

TOWN OF SCITUATE ANNUAL REPORT
REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS
To the School Committee and Citizens of Scituate:
It is with pleasure and confidence that I respectfully submit my second annual report as superintendent of the Scituate Public Schools.
SCHOOL STAFF
Scituate continues to be fortunate in the quality of its instructional and non- instructional staff.
The large majority of the instructional staff continue to improve professionally by pursuing graduate work at the various institutions of higher learning in the surrounding area.
With the opening of the Hatherly School and the increased enrollments in the junior and senior high schools, eighteen additional instructional personnel were added to the staff this year.
SCHOOL PROGRAM
Scituate schools continue to emphasize and stress the fundamentals of reading, writing and numbers; however, the schools are sensitive to new developments as they emerge from research and pilot studies throughout the country.
Language Arts Curriculum
The first of a series of Curriculum Guides was produced this summer.
The Language Arts Guide, Grades One through Six, will help to insure reason- able uniformity through grades school by school.
This guide was written during the summer by a team of teachers representing all grades, one through twelve. Basic guides covering grades seven through twelve are needed in order to complete the series in this area.
Social Studies
A complete review of the Social Studies program, grades one through twelve, is in progress. This project will cover a period of two years. Many of the areas formerly studied in the intermediate grades will be introduced in the primary grades.
A complete review of the subjects offered at the high school in this area has been made, with the following new subjects, World Geography and World History, contemplated for 1964.

TOWN OF SCITUATE ANNUAL REPORT
Honors Program in United States History
An experimental honors program in United States History is being given to a selected group of students who have shown unusual aptitude or interest in history. This program parallels. the freshman college program and will prepare students for advance placement in this area.
Mathematics
Beginning in September, 1963, the new School Mathematics Study Group (SMSG) program was offered in four divisions at grades seven and eight.
All elementary teachers are taking an in-service course in the new approach to the teaching of mathematics in the elementary grades. This course will prepare our teachers for the new program in mathematics which will be given in the ele- mentary schools beginning September, 1964.
Science
The excellent program in science being carried on in grades seven and eight will make it possible for those students with demonstrated achievement in this field to elect biology as afreshman science course. This will allow these students time in their junior and senior schedules to elect advance courses in science and mathematics, or add courses in foreign language, English, social studies or the arts.
Foreign Language
The study of foreign language (French) in grades four through eight has been refined and reinforced.
A qualified foreign language teacher has been assigned to grades four through six to work with teachers and pupils, supplementing the TV program Parlons Francais.
Students in both the seventh and the eighth grades, for the first time, may elect a full credit French course, which is offered four periods a week. It is contem- plated that for those who demonstrate superior achievement, it will be possible to elect French II their freshman year.
Special Services
Two special service personnel have been added to the school staff this past year, a school adjustment counselor and a speech therapist.
The major portion of the time of these specialists is spent in the elementary grades.
The primary purpose of the programs carried on by these specialists is the early identification of behavioral and speech difficulties, followed by remedial action and the involvement of the teacher, parents and pupil in the solution of the problem.
5
TOWN OF SCITUATE ANNUAL REPORT
Positive results are already evident and further progress in these fields can be expected.
Libraries Elementary
School libraries are today an essential part of a well-balanced and quality school program.
Libraries have been established in each elementary school, and a certified school librarian has been assigned to supervise and coordinate the library serv- ices of the four elementary schools. A volunteer group of some sixty parents and interested citizens, sponsored by the individual school P.T.A.s, staffs and operates these libraries during the day.
Additional funds should be allocated in order that the several libraries may be adequately stocked with books and reference sets. In order that duplication of effort and materials are kept at a minimum, regular meetings are held with repre- sentatives of the Town Libraries during the year.
SCHOOL PLANT
Enrollments continue to increase, both in the beginning years and at the secondary levels. Total enrollment will reach 4000 by the end of the present school year.
Junior High School and Elementary Schools
Increased enrollment in the seventh and eighth grades will make it necessary to move six or seven divisions of the sixth grade, now housed in the new wing of the junior high school, to the four elementary schools in September of 1964. These divisions will be assigned to emergency classrooms in the gymnasia and play areas of the individual schools. Classroom space will be rented to house the kindergarten classes assigned to the Jenkins School.
High School
The enrollment at the high school has exceeded its capacity (800). In Septem- ber, 1964 the high school will enroll an estimated 940 pupils.
This condition produces large classes, limited flexibility in scheduling, and a limitation on the student's freedom in the selection of his program of studies.
Observation
It is imperative that immediate action be taken to provide funds for:
a. An additional elementary school
b. An addition to the present high school
These two additions are necessary if we in Scituate are to continue to provide an adequate educational program for our children.

TOWN OF SCITUATE ANNUAL REPORT
SCHOOL AND COMMUNITY RELATIONS
This past year the School Committee and the staff have made every effort, not only to keep the various publics informed of the progress and needs of the schools, but to involve representative citizens in some of its major activities.
Intercom
This publication, sponsored by the School Committee and the staff of the Scituate Public Schools, is a periodic progress report on the various programs carried on in the schools.
This publication is distributed to parents and interested citizens five times a year. It is a major part of an annual report.
Salary Survey
This year the School Committee enlisted the services of representative citizens and teachers to study present practices in the payment of teachers and staff, and to recommend salary policies which the School Committee might consider for the future.
The superintendent mentions this activity as a positive example of the involve- ment of many segments of a community in working on pertinent school problems.
CONCLUSION
Guidelines set for the future in the superintendent's 1962 report remain to be fully realized and are repeated for emphasis.
1. A toughening of the curriculum with a coordinated approach grades K through 12.
2. Expansion of the guidance and counseling services.
3. A gradual incorporation of the newpatterns of the instructional organization such as the Ungraded Primary, Team Learning and Team Teaching where applicable; and the involvement of the faculties in in-service programs in order to implement these new patterns.
4. A wider use of findings of research and development, especially in the field of technology.
5. A broader involvement of the various publics in the development of the emerging design for education in Scituate.
A Portrait of an Education in Scituate
This We Believe that each student must learn to think for himself and must be able to communicate effectively his ideas to others.
We strive to place the student in this position of dual responsibility and to teach him judgment and discrimination in his responses. The coin of individuality has two sides, and along with self-expression and initiative come self-discipline and social responsibility. Only with a parallel development can our young people

achieve fully realized roles in their families, and in the local, national and inter- national communities of tomorrow.
If these ends are to be reached, every citizen must bear his share of responsi- bility for our future.
