The stage is on the same level as the gymnasium floor and is sep- arated from the gymnasium by large doors running on a track, and a handsome velour curtain. The track for the doors is arranged in such a way that the stage or platform more truly speaking, may be enlarged or the doors may be run back along the sides of the gymnasium, ex- posing the whole gymnasium to the auditorium. The latter has 809 seats and is equipped with a moving picture booth and machine.
The basement or ground floor provides space for the fan room; storage rooms with a small lift leading up to each floor above; the' do- mestic science suite, including a large room for cooking with one corner set off as a demonstration kitchen off of which is a small demonstra- tion suite, consisting of bedroom, dining room, and bath; a sewing room with a small room for fitting; a large lunchroom with proper equip- ment, including storage rooms; the janitor's office; biology laboratory with a small experimental greenhouse and workshop combined; a room for taking care of the main switches for the electrical equipment, storage batteries and charger, and pump and air tank for the thermostats; a music room and an armory. At the extreme rear of the building are the shops built like a modern factory, lighted from the sides and from the roof. There are no better lighted and ventilated shops for the com- posite high school anywhere around. The whole basement, including the boiler room and shops, is protected by automatic sprinklers.

REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE
The second floor has two spaces for locker rooms, toilets for boys and girls, nine classrooms and a library, called the Charles H. Howe Memorial Library in honor of the late Mr. Howe who was principal for nearly twenty-three years. The library has a small workroom for the librarian and a small conference room. Three classrooms on this floor are opposite the library, and are connected by large folding doors, mak- ing it possible to open them into one large room if need arises.
The third story has a north room for freehand drawing, three labor- atories with a lecture room, apparatus, storage rooms and a mathematics room. The entire front of this floor is given up to the commercial de- partment, and includes a large bookkeeping room and typewriting room.
The building is particularly well equipped with storage rooms for books and supplies. This is one thing many high schools lack. Besides these, each classroom has a built-in closet equipped with filing drawers.
The lecture room, and the two corner rooms on the first floor have light tight shades, making it possible to use a stereopticon in each.
The building is equipped with the best wearing furniture available for school purposes. It was all bought from careful specifications and from the lowest responsible bidder with the exception of two items.
We entered the new building on June 4, 1923. It is interesting to note the ease of transition from the old to the new. There was no delay and practically no loss in time. The principal had the assignment of rooms all ready for classes, teachers, and students. The students met in the old rooms, gathered all their books together and formed a pro- cession outside the old building. They marched through the streets, headed by the Cadet Drum Corps with the Battalion Officers as marsh- - als, entered the new building, passed directly to their new assignmeints and picked up their regular work. The whole transfer took less than a recitation period.
The auditorium is filling a long felt want. During the past eleven years the entire high school has been assembled together only twice, both of these being possible through the courtesy and generosity of Mr. Charles Hodgdon of the local theatre.
The building is proving to be very easily administered, even better than we anticipated. The reaction upon the students is gratifying, and while the standard of the High School has always been high, I ex- pect to see it even better under the new conditions.
Lafayette School
The old high school building has been named the Lafayette School. The only part which is really suitable for school purposes is the north wing or annex, which was added about twenty-five years ago. This gives six rooms which can be used for the grades, with room 1 (the large room on the second floor) available as an assembly room.
148
TOWN OF WAKEFIELD
We are now using these for all the eighth grades with the excep- tion of the one in Greenwood. We are finding that this is working out advantageously for the pupils. All work is on the departmental plan, giving the teachers a chance to specialize and give more concentration on their subjects.
At present we are not attempting to operate this school as a Junior High School, as we do not feel the additional expense necessary is hard- ly warranted under the present conditions. The departmental plan is proving efficient and valuable and should be continued for a while. Ultimately we should look forward to establishing a Junior High School. We are sadly in need of more room in two districts, the Lincoln and Franklin. Whether we could get enough room by remodeling to warrant the large expense, is a question. We ought not to use any more of the building, with the possible exception of room 11 on the first floor, un- less some extensive changes are made. It seems a pity to destroy a well built building, but I am inclined to feel that this should be dis- posed of and a new one substituted. However, I suggest that we secure expert advice upon the question of remodeling or building anew.
Accommodations
Probably every town and city of any size find themselves in the situation as we do in regarding to seating accommodations. Last fall we took out two eighth grades from the Lincoln School, but these were immediately filled up. It looks now as though we shall need two more rooms next fall.
The Franklin School is in an equally bad, if not worse condition. . One grade is on part time now. Next fall there will be at least one more if not two which will have to attend alternate sessions.
Some relief for these two sections ought to be found before fall. The two-room portable at Greenwood will be available by September, but this cannot be used for both places.
The time is at hand, I believe, when the Committee should adopt a building program looking forward for the next ten or fifteen years. We should make a thorough study of the situation, the probable growth of the Town, and lay out plans accordingly. Undoubtedly the Planning Board would be of great assistance in doing this.
The financial burden looks tremendous, bit if the Town continues to grow and the school population continues to increase, more room will have to be provided. It may be of interest to note that the school en- rollment has increased about fifty percent in ten years, while besides the new high school building, only four permanent school rooms have been added. It seems as though increased accommodations have been postponed as long as possible.
Greenwood will be adequately taken care of for the next few years
149
REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE
by the addition which was authorized at the last spring Town Meeting and which is now under way.
Professional Improvement
Last year the Committee made arrangements with Boston Uni- versity to send a professor here to conduct a class for the benefit of the teachers. Professor John Mahoney gave a most valuable course in English for the grades. About thirty-five teachers were enrolled and all who passed, received credit toward a degree at the college. This year we are conducting a class under the leadership of Professor Guy M. Wilson on "Motivation of Work."
During the year 1923 eleven received enough points to entitle them to the special increase in salary.
The plan as outlined by the Committee is working out well, for about 42% of the teachers are taking up special work. This study and stimulation cannot but help react upon the classroom work, for a part of many courses requires reports from the classes of each teacher.
Entrance Age
The present rule of the Committee states that a child must be five years of age on or before April 1 preceding the opening of school in September. The largest per cent of failures occur in the first grade and seems to be due to immaturity. I think we should consider raising the entrance age to six. There would be some parents who would feel that their children were old mentally and that this would work a hardship on them. All such children could be examined by mental tests and those found to have a mental age of six might be admitted irrespective of the chronological age. I feel that perhaps we ought to do something along this line even under the present ruling.
Education Week
Education week was observed throughout the country. We did our share in Wakefield. The superintendent spoke before the Ameri- can Legion at their meeting nearest this week.
On Monday night the Lafayette classes gave a musical program. On Tuesday night the Evening Schools had a special assembly period, when they listened to talks from two members of the School Committee, Mr. Copeland Lang of the Heywood-Wakefield Co. and the Superin- tendent of Schools. Wednesday was a special visiting day in all the grades. Each pupil had written an invitation to his parents as a part of his regular language lesson, urging them to come if possible. The Lafayette School had half of their session in the morning and the last three periods in the evening. Thursday evening was set aside as visit-
150
TOWN OF WAKEFIELD
ing night for all the evening schools. Friday evening the High School was in session, showing four periods of regular work.
We were anxious to have as many of the townspeople visit the schools as possible to acquaint them with the actual operations which are a part of our regular routine. We made no attempt to "show off", but merely gave examples of regular work, showing all phases.
I felt pleased to see that about two thousand of our patrons visited the different schools during the week. I trust they feel that they know more now of what is really done in the schools. I want the people to know that parents and all who are interested are welcome and urged to visit schools as often as possible to get first hand knowledge of school work and school conditions. I urge them not to wait until Education Week comes before they make another visit.
COMMUNITY USE OF THE HIGH SCHOOL
We have one of the best high schools in New England and it seems a pity to allow it to stand idle for so much time. It is true that during the fall, winter, and spring, the night school uses a large part of it; yet the auditorium and other rooms should be available for meetings of communi- ty interest. The Committee is in accord with this idea and has drawn up tentative rules for using the building. These are in brief: any re- putable organization may use any portion of the building at a nominal charge which really covers the additional expense incurred. No public dance, however, may be held in the gymnasium.
REPAIRS AT LINCOLN SCHOOL
The Lincoln School is heated by a high pressure boiler, furnishing steam for both the direct and indirect systems. The boiler is the origi- nal one put in when the school was built. The insurance people feel that it is now getting too old to be used with safety on high pressure, and advised us to have the pressure cut down another year. We cannot heat the building if we do this. We have asked R. D. Kimball Co. of Boston to advise us as to what we should do. Whatever change is made, will involve considerable expense, and I suggest that the Committee put a separate article in the Town Warrant covering the expense of the re- quired changes.
ATHLETIC FIELD
The athletic field in the rear has been surveyed according to plans drawn up by Mr. Philip Foster of this town. Through the generosity of Mr. and Mrs. A. G. Walton considerable work has already been done. There is still much to be done, but when it is finished, we shall have a
151, 1
REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE
field that will adequately meet our needs and which will be a credit to the town. 1
EVENING SCHOOL
Miss Rourke has continued her excellent work with the Americaniza- tion classes. She has also acted as principal of the Evening School, which we have expanded this year in two directions. We have added a class in cooking. This was filled to overflowing the first night, and we found it necessary to divide it into two or three units, making each unit consist of twelve lessons.
We have also added a commercial department. The enrollment here was so large that we had to secure four teachers to take care of the classes.
I have usually included a part of the report of the Director, but I think it is better to put it in as a unit; consequently it will be found as a separate report.

MANUAL TRAINING
Below is a summary of the work done in the Manual Training De- partment. The records for the first part of 1923 were lost in moving, therefore the report covers work done since September last.
In estimating the amount of labor involved in the printing and various jobs done by the Industrial Arts Department, we figure the amount of time it would take a workman skilled in the trade to do the job.

This is the largest number we have had enrolled at the beginning of any school year. Since September we have had sixteen more pupils en- ter school. It may be of interest to know that there are 41 pupils who come from the Lynnfields.
We were fortunate in not losing many teachers from our faculty. Two were married, one took advanced work at Columbia University, and one was obliged to leave on account of the death of her mother. The new members are Miss Mildred Sullivan who teaches English and Gen- eral Mathematics, Miss Harriet Haywood who teaches Latin and Alge- bra, and Miss Winnifred Browne, who teaches General Science. Mr. Joseph Fanck has charge of Manual Training and Mechanical Drawing. Mr. Louis Marche is assistant in the Manual Training Department. Miss Eleanor Blaikie has charge of the Girls' Physical Training and Mr. Charles Bemis, Jr., has charge of the Boys' Physical Training and all athletic activities except football.
It was a great pleasure to us to enter our new building last year five weeks before graduation. We were disappointed several times udr- ing the year but when we finally took possession of the building we felt
158

as proud as any of the Caesars on their triumphal entries to the City of Rome. After working in such crowded conditions as existed in the old building it is delightful to be in a nice clean building where we have enough room and where we can have plenty of light and fresh air. We entered the new building on a Friday when we had a joyous parade from the old building to the new one. The pupils and teachers carried their books to the new building and on Monday morning we started in our new quarters without losing any time in the moving. There is a' decided improvement in the school spirit and I attribute this to the en- vironment in the new building. We have plenty of room and the best of equipment and it surely is reflected in the attitude of the pupils to- ward the school life and work. We now have opportunity to encourage activities that were not possible in the old building but are as essen- tial to the training of good citizenship as those learned from books.
We believe that pupils should be trained to feel that the govern- ment of the school is their responsibility as much as it is that of the teachers. To realize this objective we have a student council which works with the principal, and any activity that is of vital importance to the student body is taken up and acted upon in this council.
The student council has appointed a traffic squad which takes en- tire charge of the passing in the corridors to and from classes. The care of the lunch room during the recess period is practically in the control of the pupils, no teacher being in charge, and I feel that they do very well.
We now have a girls' glee club, a science club for the general science pupils, an orchestra which plays at assembly period each week, several English clubs, and a dramatic club. The dramatic club gave a one-act play at one of the assembly periods and is planning to stage several plays, having a different company of pupils take part in each play. At some of the assembly periods, we have outside speakers who address us on topics of interest, but our object is to have the pupils themselves take charge of these periods. The assembly comes on Thursday and we hope to make it one of the most interesting periods of the week.
Our school day is from 8:10 A. M. to 2 P. M. with one half hour for lunch. We serve a hot lunch each day at a very reasonable cost. The food served is plain but wholesome.
Each girl has exercise in the gymnasium two periods each week. When the new athletic field is ready we hope to do the exercises there' during the spring and fall. All boys of the Freshman and Sophomore classes must take Military Drill three days a week. The boys of the Junior and Senior Classes must take drill or Physical Training. From'
