TOWN OF WAKEFIELD
From the report of Miss Jennings, Reading Consultant.
Steps taken to improve some of the conditions which create reading problems-

2. 602 children from all grades and from all schools were given Diag- nostic Tests
3. Sixteen children were given the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Test
4. 263 visits were made to classrooms
5. A room at the Lincoln School has been equipped as an office, which provides an opportunity for conferences and for the display of educational books and material
6. The case history files have been revised and brought up to date
7. Wakefield has taken advantage of the free services of the Boston University Speech Clinic
8. Meetings have been held with the teachers of all eight grades
9. Talks have been given to four Parent-Teacher Association meetings
10. Cooperation with the children's department of the Public Library Recommendations for the balance of the year 1948-1949-
1. Improved planning of work-type seatwork
2. Grade meetings to stress improved classroom teaching procedures
3. Giving two or three days a month for testing and case diagnosis in the High School
4. Arrange for a second semester extension course on reading
5. Arrange for a teacher workshop for those interested in advancing the reading program
6. The selection of appropriate texts and workbooks
7. Greater use of the public and school libraries
8. A possible organization of parent study groups to help clarify the teaching program
9. The use of outside speakers for special teachers' meetings to pre- sent new materials and techniques
Miss Jenkins, Art Supervisor, reports that on three afternoons in De- cember there was an Art Workshop for all the elementary school teachers. This workshop was conducted by Miss Wilma Geer, the general purpose being to instruct the teachers in planning and developing projects suit- able for their particular grades. It was successful from every standpoint.
Last spring a mural was planned and executed on the south wall of the second floor corridor at Greenwood by six pupils of grade 8.
From the report of Miss Wheeler, Music Supervisor.
Half of the supervisory visits are for the purpose of lesson demon- stration, and half for observation. Suggestions for the improvement of the music teaching are given. All teachers are encouraged to use the school record library, which, it is hoped, may be built up materially.
Several innovations have been added to the regular music curriculum. The High School Girls' Glee Club was changed to a mixed chorus which numbers fifty-five and which presented a Christmas pageant at the De-

cember meeting of the High School Parent-Teacher Association and at two assemblies.
An orchestra has been formed in each elementary school.
A new music text has been added for the second grade.
Among the needs of the music department are: Additional books on music literature and the teaching of music for teacher reference; an en- larged record library; the extension of the present music series into other grades; a Recordio.
Mr. Fanck, Director of Instrumental Music, reports:
The number of students playing in the instrumental groups is as follows:
W. H. S. band 46
W. H. S. orchestra 24 Junior band 30 Junior orchestra 20
During the year these groups have taken part in the usual public events, Memorial Day parade, the football games, High School assemblies, the Massachusetts Music Festival at Lawrence, etc. There was the usual Spring Concert, and in June there were three evening recitals in which every pupil taking lessons was given the opportunity to play a solo.
An encouraging sign is the fact that many in the junior group are now taking lessons on the various band and orchestra instruments. (The total at present is 119).
Mr. Dower, Supervisor of Penmanship, recommends that pupils who fail to write satisfactorily upon graduation from the eighth grade be re- quired to take a course in writing in the High School.
From the report of Mr. Heavens, Coordinator of the Veterans' School. In June of 1948, after having been in operation continuously since January, 1946, the Veterans' School closed for the Summer months. How- ever, as early as August, inquiries began to come in relative to the re- opening of the school in the Fall. As a result the school was reopened in October with 51 boys registered, a number which later reached 77.
We were primarily concerned in giving boys who had started their courses previously an opportunity to complete their work. The closing date has been set as January 20, 1949, by which time it is hoped that the majority of the boys will have a fair chance of accomplishing their ob- jectives. The individual teachers have planned to carry on the work with the remainder of the boys on their own time after that date.
At present 21 boys have finished 43 different courses, and 7 have com- pleted all the requirements and have been recommended for a State Equivalency Certificate or for a High School diploma.
Report of Mr. Crompton, Director of Physical Education.
The athletic section has been merged with the Physical Education Dept., so that now students receive training in game skills, posture, tumbling, apparatus work, correctives and health. From the 6th grade up all boys who show aptitude in athletics are trained to the end that they may realize their ambition in athletics and develop proper health habits.
212
TOWN OF WAKEFIELD
All boys in the system are tested and measured for strength and co- ordination. Boys below average are given the opportunity to join extra classes in physical education. These extra classes are proving popular. A corrective room has been equipped at the High School.
The basketball intra-mural program had 23 home room teams, with 200 individual players, taking part in 175 games.
Close cooperation is maintained with the School Doctor and Nurse, in the attempt to catch and remedy as many physical deficiencies as possible.
The employment of men teachers in the elementary school, part of whose duty it is to supervise physical education, has made it possible to extend and enlarge the program. Much remains to be done but we have a good start on a comprehensive program.
The School Physician reports 2617 examinations. Of this number 824 needed work on teeth, 168 should have tonsils removed, 54 had wax in the ears impairing hearing, 13 had heart defects, 159 had faulty posture, and 4 had inguinal hernias. The faulty posture cases were referred to the Physical Education Department, and all other defects were reported to parents.
One hundred and ten under-age children who sought admission to the first grade were examined. Two children who were underweight were refused admission, and the parents of one child with a congenital heart condition were advised to have the child remain out of school for one year.
Immunization against diphtheria was carried out as usual, but with far fewer cases because of the numbers previously immunized.
All boys going out for varsity sports were examined-179 such exam- inations were given. The "School Physician attended all football games and treated 59 injuries.

In Memoriam
ELVIRA CAROTHERS COSMAN
Mrs. Elvira Carothers Cosman was born in Monmouth, Maine, on May 23rd, 1882. She was graduated from Boston University, where she had a major in English and a minor in Education, in 1921. After teaching in Marietta, Ohio, and Roselle Park, N. J., she came to Wakefield High School in 1921, serving continuously until her death on May 18th, 1948.
Hers was a lifetime spent in unselfish devotion to the highest ideals of the teaching profession. Cultured, keenly interested in the achieve- ments of her students, humble, sincere, proud of the American heritage, and devoted to service, she will be missed by both students and associates. She leaves the memory of a gracious lady who, quietly and efficiently, lived out her long and valued life.
LAURA A. HART
Miss Hart became a teacher in the Greenwood School in 1910. After thirty-eight years of faithful and conscientious service she retired in June, 1948. A cordial expression of thanks is due to her for her pleasing per- sonality, her love for boys and girls, her skill in the classroom, and her devotion to duty. Miss Hart will be fondly remembered by those pupils who were in her classes, and by her associates who wish for her many happy and quiet years in her retirement.
MABEL A. KERNAN
Miss Kernan graduated from the Wakefield High School in 1898. The following year she became a teacher at the Warren School. Two years later she was transferred to the West Ward as Principal, remaining in that building until her retirement in June, 1948.
214
TOWN OF WAKEFIELD
For forty-nine years Miss Kernan had the pleasure (and it was a pleasure to her) of guiding hundreds of boys and girls through the work of her own classes; of following their progress in the other elementary grades; of watching their achievements in High School and college; of being invited to their weddings; of having their children in her own class- room. To know of their joys and sorrows, their successes and failures, and to have their life-long friendship -- these things were the rich reward, and the only reward, which Miss Kernan asked for her service to them.
These one-time boys and girls and her fellow teachers in the School Department extend to her every good wish for the years ahead.
