REPORT OF THE SCHOOL COMMITTEE
At the annual town elections in March, Mrs. Lenora P. LeCours who had been appointed to replace Mrs. Dorothea J. Wettergreen, was elected for a two year term and John P. Turner was elected for three years re- placing former Chairman Lane W. Fuller who retired from the Committee after eight years' active membership.
The Committee was reorganized at the first meeting in September with the appointment of the following officers:
William W. Allyn, Chairman Lenora P. LeCours, Secretary Henry B. McConville, Treasurer
In several instances this year, the Committee was prompted to assert its policy on matters pertaining to the proper administration and use of the schools, such as:
Compulsory retirement of school personnel at age of seventy years.
Use of school facilities on Sundays for other than cultural programs opposed by Committee.
Committee declined to depart from its policy which requires that children be five years, eight months of age to be eligible for enrollment in the first grade.
Reaffirmed policy to transport only those pupils living 11/2 miles from a school.
Two important citizen committees were appointed by the Chairman during the year. Mrs. Jean W. Beebe, Gerard G. Barry, William T. Curley, Jr., Max J. Ramocki, Alice M. Grilk, Rosalie N. Spinozzi, James Nelson, Thomas W. McManus, and Thomas Hanson served on a special committee to survey Driver Training Education. After several meetings this special
39
148TH ANNUAL REPORT
committee concluded that Driver Training is definitely worthwhile, every- one benefits from it and the best place for this instruction is in the schools. Its recommendation was adopted to expand the program so that it will be made available to all students of driver age.
Another committee will study the problem of Transportation and Sidewalks. This committee is composed of the following citizens: Mr. Franklin C. Johnson, Mrs. Isabelle J. O'Connor, Mrs. Charles H. Geiger, Mr. Warren B. Colburn, Mrs. Herbert Franklin, Mrs. Joseph E. Caroselli, Mr. Richard McGrail, and Mr. Henry H. Orcutt.
A complete review of various areas of school curriculum was con- ducted by the Committee during several meetings which were devoted entirely to discussions of (1) Guidance (2) Elementary program (3) Sum- mer School Enrichment program and (4) Athletics. This gave the Com- mittee an opportunity to evaluate the effective planning and conduct of current methods in the field of education. The Committee reports that Wakefield has made advances in guidance and has recognized the necessity of a program for the exceptional child. It is vital that both of these programs should be expanded for the benefit of all students.
The Committee also reviewed recommendations for changes in cur- riculum in the Junior and Senior High Schools. A full year of Algebra, Ancient and Medieval History, History and Government, and General Science will now be offered at the ninth grade level and high school students in the College Preparatory Course may complete Algebra I in one year and Plane Geometry in one year instead of spending one and a half years on each subject. In addition, a new course in General Mathe- matics for Business students will be introduced. German I will be offered in grades 10 and 11 which will provide one ancient and four modern languages in the high school curriculum.
The School Committee herewith acknowledges with appreciation the faithful services to the community of two teachers: Mrs. Hester A. Walker who retired this year following 41 years of devoted service and Mrs. Hazel O. Wilder whose excellent teaching covered a period of more than 40 years. The loyal services of John M. Hennessey whose skill as a maintenance man has been invaluable is called to the attention of the townspeople. Mr. Hennessey served the Wakefield school system for 20 years.
Following announcement of a new State minimum and after a review of teachers' salaries in comparable communities, it was decided by the Committee that a new schedule should be adopted in Wakefield in order to maintain our present position in the employment and retention of experienced teachers. The following schedule becomes effective Septem- ber 1, 1960:
Bachelor's Degree
Women
4200-6250
Men 4400-6450
Master's Degree
Women 4500-6550
Men 4700-6750
The schedule comprises twelve steps with increments of $200 for the first seven, $150 for the next three and an additional $200 after fifteen years experience.

TOWN OF WAKEFIELD
Enrollment figures at the beginning of the school year were 4,857 in the Wakefield school system. Senior High 945, Junior High 1,257, and Elementary 2,655. It is easy to discern the impact of growth in pupil population in the next decade. Wakefield is well prepared for the begin- ning of it with a Junior High School now under construction and an ele- mentary school in the planning stage.

148TH ANNUAL REPORT
To the School Committee:
We are continuing the practice begun last year of submitting a brief, concise report for inclusion in the Town Report.
Educational Program Accomplishments and Changes - 1959
Televised educational programs have been extended and enlarged. Elementary French is now being taught at the 4th grade level and a Humanities program was received at the senior high school level. These programs have been well received.
Teacher committees have been established in all areas of elementary education. A Steering Committee serves as an advisory group to all other committees.
A complete revision of the Elementary Course of Study was completed by the Elementary Steering Committee. This has been published and placed in the hands of every elementary teacher.
We have had a re-examination of daily programs from the viewpoint of time allocation for all areas of learning.
Our testing program continues to indicate excellent standards of accomplishment by the students.
The summer school program was enlarged. A year's study and explora- tion culminated in the introduction of a program for the gifted child. This was in addition to the regular remedial program.
The program of guidance has been strengthened. A full time teacher in guidance has been employed in the high school and classes in guidance have been scheduled for the 7th and 8th grades.
French and Spanish are now being taught at the 7th grade level on a selective basis. This is experimental and the results will determine future possibilities.
The High School Science Department conducted its first Science Fair with over 400 exhibits.
During the year the staff of the senior high school has been busy in preparation for a special evaluation to be conducted by the New England Association of Secondary Schools and Colleges.
Sixty-two percent or a total of 189 students of the graduating class of 1959 are continuing their education at 74 different colleges and uni- versities.
Recommendations for the Future:
Centralization and coordination of our audio-visual program.
The employment of a Speech Therapist.
Enlargement of the summer program to include all children who wish to enroll.
Re-evaluation of Marking, Reporting, and Records.
