The program of testing under-aged children for admission to Grade I has now covered a period of four years. A careful check has been kept on all pupils who have entered on this test. The following table shows the results.


Total number of children tested for admission 251


Total number of children admitted 90


Number who passed but did not enter 4


Number who left school during first year because of illness 7


Number who have received double promotion 2


Number who are now in an A division 52


Number who are now in a B division 21


Number who are now in a C division 1


Group intelligence tests are given to all children in the elementary schools and to some in the High School. From the results of these tests, we learn the average ability of a group of children and what to expect from that group in the way of achievement. These tests also help in diagnosing the needs of individual children, for when they show results which are not in keeping with the achievement of the child, individual tests are given and the results of these help us to help him make a better adjustment.


The Standford Achievement Test, which is a battery of tests in various elementary school subjects, was given in February 1926, and again this year. The results of these tests show a general improvement throughout the school system, and that, in general, the achievement equals the mental ability.


During the past two or three years, follow-up work has been carried on with those children who are 10% or more underweight; and the record has been sent to the Sanatorium at Westfield at the end of the year. Un- der this heading the School Nurse reports that 12 of this group were recom- mended for re-examination. In November, the State Clinic visited Wake- field and examined some of these children. The following table shows the report returned to us :


Number of children recommended for re-examination 12 Number of children re-examined 6


Number of children who refused to be re-examined 1


Number of children who had left school or moved away 5


Number of children who were found improved in 1927 4 Number of children who remained improved 2

REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE


The School Physician states that besides the regular examination of pupils, many have been examined at the request of the school nurse, the teacher, or the pupil or his parents. Seven hundred seventy-five notices of defective teeth have been sent home and an almost equal number of deciduous teeth has been noted. Notices of enlarged or infected tonsils numbered about 400; this usually included adenoids. "As previously noted in my reports, this class (underweight) is by no means restricted to any nationality or social status, except that it is definitely greater among girls than among boys in the High School age group. In the first year high group examined this fall, 46 girls were 10% or more underweight, while only 9 boys were so found. In other defects the girls outranked the boys, having only about one-half as many decayed teeth or diseased throats. The question of weight is so closely bound up in matters pertaining to dress and personal preference that statistics are misleading, but on the whole it is probably definitely established that tuberculosis will claim a greater number among the underweights than among the normal or above."

"Under the existing crowded conditions it is seldom that a pupil can study in a study room, but he must study in a recitation room. This year for the first time I had to limit the number of pupils taking free hand drawing and typewriting I. I had twelve girls who desired to take draw- ing but I could not make room as all classes were filled, so twelve girls who were not going to Normal School had to omit drawing. In typewriting I, there were twenty-three more pupils desiring it than I could accommodate, so arrangements had to be made so that all commercial pupils could take it and the others could not.


During the year our school library received books from The Boit Home, Mr. and Mrs. W. S. Ripley, Ancient History Clubs, Charles H. Howe Me- morial Fund, and Harry Foster Fund in addition to those obtained from the School Committee. This is very gratifying to us. I hope that the School Committee will appropriate $200 each year for reference books for the

library. Our library is one of the most important departments in our school and we want it to become more so each year.


The Class of 1928 presented to the school as their Class Gift, a piano, which is in the library. This gift is greatly appreciated as now we have the Girls' and Boys' Glee Clubs and the orchestra rehearse in the library instead of the auditorium. This makes it possible for the Basketball teams to practice immediately after school, where, hitherto, they had to wait until the rehearsals of the various musical clubs were over.


We have many clubs that interest pupils, but the two most active in school are the Hi-Y Club and the Inter Nos Club. Every fall these Clubs help very effectively in guiding the freshmen about for the first two weeks. Also at Thanksgiving, the Inter Nos Club prepares three dinners for needy families and at Christmas the Hi-Y club gathers gifts for needy children.


The girls do not participate in inter-school sports now, but devote all the time to inter-class sports. In this way we have twice as many girls participating and I believe more good is accomplished.


Our main task is scholastic and I believe the results obtained are very satisfactory. Our pupils who enter college by examination or by certi- ficate do very well in college, and they tell me that their high school prep- aration is very good. Those pupils who took examinations under the Col- lege Entrance Examination Board did very well. Of the 127 pupils who graduated last June, 52 went to higher institutions of learning. I believe it is a very high percentage."


The following is an excerpt from the report of the principal of the Evening School. "There has been a decided change in the makeup of the Evening School classes within the past three years. Up to that time the largest number of pupils were found in the adult alien classes. Due to the more stringent immigration laws there has been a decided decrease in the number of aliens entering the country, and consequently a decrease in the number entering these classes. At the same time there has been a gratifying interest shown by our native born in the commercial and practical art classes. This has been particularly true of the practical arts division. We now have two classes in cooking, four in dressmaking and one in milli- nery. The enrollment for this group is 115. The commercial classes are also well attended.


Whereever it has been warranted, combinations of classes have been made. The beginners and intermediate groups of adult aliens were com- bined this year. The illiterate minor class is one which will be eliminated in a short time. A combination of this class with the slower ones of the advanced grammar group has been made.

REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE


The State Supervisor of Americanization has been anxious to establish factory classes here. I have given some time and study to the situation here and I do not feel that conditions at the present time warrant the ex- penditure of the money necessary to put these classes over. Factory classes were tried when the Americanization program was at its height in Wake- field and I believe, were never very successful. I believe, however, that a mother's class would be worth much if started."


The Physical Director has supervision of all physical activities all the schools. He has an assistant who takes complete charge of all the girls in the High School, and another who works with the lower grades and with the girls of the upper grades.


Through the co-operation of Miss Bent we were able to eliminate outside competition for the girls. We have always felt that we would rather have a larger percentage of the total number of girls in the school engaged in some form of athletics than to have a championship team or teams which would mean that the benefits would be derived by a few. There is no question but that it was a success and we had more than enough girls playing to make up ten teams whereas under the old plan we could use but twenty-two girls.


This has also brought about the organization known as The Inter Nos Club which is organized to assist Miss Bent with the teams and to promote a spirit of clean competition and sportsmanship in games.


Lessons for the grades are carefully selected and work is being unified. It seems that there is much more co-operation between the classroom teachers and the teacher working in the different grades. This no doubt will help to put the lessons across 100% and the pupils will derive full benefit from them. This year the schedule of the teacher working with the grades has been carefully arranged so that it is possible for her to help each grade every two weeks. Of course, we hope to be able to help them every week and go over their problems but this can only be accomplished by additional teachers.


Through the courtesy of Mr. Russell, of the Y. M. C. A., we are using their gymnasium for the eighth grade girls' gym classes. We also have permission to use the gymnasium for eighth grade basketball which is ably handled by Mr. Crane of the Lafayette School.


An exhibition of the work being done in the schools was presented before the public on the Common in early June. This proved entertaining and educational, especially to a group who feel that Physical Education is just a lesson in strong muscles and freakish accomplishments. We feel that a good brain cannot function to its capacity unless it be accompanied by a strong, healthy body and feel that this strong, healthy body cannot

be sustained except through the education in exercise and health train- ing


A new system of banking is being tried in three of the schools. The Savings Bank sends a representative to the school to take care of the money brought by the children for deposit. Each depositor has a coupon book. The coupon has a space for the date, name of the pupil, name of the school, amount deposited, and amount of balance. There are spaces on the inside covers for records of deposit. When the amount of the deposits equals a dollar, the amount is transferred to a regular pass book. With the ex- ception of the first two grades where the coupons are filled in by the teachers before school on the day set aside for banking, the pupils fill in their own deposit coupons. These are left, together with the money on the teacher's desk. The bank representative comes into the room, takes the coupon and money and credits each individual for his deposit. This is done very rapidly and does not interrupt the work in any one room for more than three to five minutes. When the bank representative leaves the school, banking is done for the week.


This system is proving very satisfactory for two important reasons:


1. The pupils come in direct contact with bank officials.


2. A great deal of time is saved for both teachers and principal.


The Greenwood School has done the most business in banking dur- ing the past year. The amount of their deposits was $2,158.34; of this $2,068.76 was transferred to pupils' accounts. Fifty-five new pass books were issued to pupils in this school.


Safety education is being given in all buildings. A Junior Safety Coun- cil has been in operation in the Greenwood School for a year. The Coun- cil consists of an organization with a president, vice-president, secretary, treasurer, active and associate members. The qualification for member- ship is to accept and memorize the Council's pledge. The meetings are held after school hours under parliamentary rules. The Parent Teachers' Association and the Greenwood Community Association have, to date, provided the funds for the Safety Council's work.


Because of a decrease in enrollment at the Hamilton School, we closed three rooms and transferred the pupils to the Warren School. One teacher was placed in the Warren School and the others moved to fill vacancies in the Franklin School. This made a net saving of two teachers. One room in the Hamilton School has been used for an opportunity class, leav- ing two rooms in this building which are not being used.
