SIGNALS FOR NO SESSIONS OF SCHOOLS
Fire Station Sirene
A. M.
7:30-22 repeated : No session of High School.
8:15-22 repeated: No forenoon session for first six grades.
P. M.
12:45-22 repeated: No afternoon session for first six grades.
NO SCHOOL SIGNAL
The "No School Signal" is used only in extremely stormy weather. The school bus starts on its first trip in the morning ten minutes after seven o'clock in order to collect the children in time for the opening of high school at 8:30 A. M. and the elementary schools at 9:00 A. M. Unless the signal is used before 7:00 o'clock many of the children already are on their way by bus. It is very difficult to determine weather conditions for the day as early as 7:00 o'clock except in cases of severe storms.
People in the outskirts of our town often cannot hear the signal, in which case children appearing in school are disappointed to learn that they must cover the long dis- tance back to their homes, while they may be chilled or wet.
We wish each parent to use his or her best judgment as to whether or not the weather is auspicious for sending their children to school. No penalty is inflicted upon any child for non-attendance on account of severe weather.
Since our teachers are in school and many of the pupils do not hear the signal, it seems wise to use the time to good
186
SIXTY-FIRST ANNUAL REPORT
advantage in warm buildings, whereas during days when the signal may be used many children are out of doors, be- coming wet and contracting colds.
Is it not wiser to have them in warm school rooms under supervision, receiving beneficial instruction ?

DIGEST OF LAWS AND REGULATIONS RELATING TO SCHOOL ATTENDANCE
Any pupil desiring to enter the first grade in September, 1935, must be at least five years of age at the opening of school in September.
Children, otherwise eligible to enter school in September for the first time, are required by law to present at time of entrance either a certificate of vaccination or a certificate of unfitness for vaccination. The school committee and board of health have ruled that certificates of unfitness for vaccination must be renewed each year. Children coming into the school system from other places, whether at the
189
TOWN OF ROCKLAND
opening of the year in September or during the school year, will be required to produce satisfactory evidence re- garding vaccination.
Pupils desiring to enter the first grade must enroll on or before October 1. Otherwise they will not be admitted.
The school hours for the first grade children, shall be from 9 until 11:30 A. M. The afternoon session shall correspond with the other grades, 1:30 P. M. until 3:30 P. M. The ruling took effect March 6, 1933.
Pupils who have been absent from school on account of contagious disease must secure a permit from a school physician before re-entering. In cases of doubt, or in cases where there exists a suspicion of contagion, the parents should advise, and the teachers should require, that the pupils consult the school nurse, who may refer the case to a school physician for further examination.
Any pupil having a contagious disease or showing symp- toms of such a disease may be temporarily excluded from school by the teacher on her own initiative or at the direc- tion of the school nurse or school physician.
Sickness is the only legal excuse for absence from school.
All children between fourteen and sixteen years of age must be in school unless they are actually employed under the authority of an employment certificate, a home permit or a special certificate permitting farm or domestic em- ployment.
Any pupil who habitually violates the rules of schools, or otherwise seriously interferes with the proper and orderly operation of the school which he attends, may be tempo- rarily excluded by the teacher or the superintendent of schools or may be permanently expelled by the school committee.
190
SIXTY-FIRST ANNUAL REPORT
Pupils under seven years of age or over sixteen who elect to attend school must conform to the same rules and regulations as those pupils who are within the compulsory age-from seven to fourteen.
Teachers may require a written excuse signed by a parent or guardian covering any case of absence, tardiness or dismissal.
Whenever a pupil is suspended by a teacher or principal, for any cause for any length of time, an immediate report must be made to the superintendent's office.
Those pupils attending the first eight grades will be transported to and from school if they live in the town of Rockland and reside more than one mile and a quarter from the school where they are authorized to attend.
Those pupils attending the high school, grades nine to twelve inclusive, will be transported to and from school if they live in the town of Rockland and reside more than two miles from the high school.
RECENT RULINGS PERTAINING TO OUR SCHOOLS
There shall be a Supervisor of Buildings who shall rep- resent the School Committee in charge of all school build- ings when they are used by outside organizations (other than school organizations).
The Supervisor's duties shall be to prevent any damage to school property and to be responsible for proper conduct in and on school property. (Prevent smoking, drinking and unbecoming conduct in the buildings.)
The organization using the building shall be responsi- ble for the expense of such a supervisor.
191
TOWN OF ROCKLAND
The supervisor shall receive his instructions from the Superintendent of Schools.
The supervisor shall receive remuneration at the rate of $2.50 until 10:30 P. M .; $4.00 if the function continues until 11:30 P. M .; $5.00 after 11:30 P. M 75c per hour will be the charge for the building if used before 6:00 P. M.
The above ruling took effect December 1, 1934.
All work performed by the School Committee shall be awarded to native born citizens, naturalized citizens, or those who have taken out their first naturalization papers.
The tuition for pupils whose parents reside out of town and wishing to attend the Rockland schools shall be estab- lished as follows : Senior High, $100 per year; Junior High, $80; elementary grades, $60.
RULES REGARDING PAYMENT OF SALARIES
The teachers of the Rockland schools shall receive their salaries bi-weekly after two weeks of actual classroom teaching from the opening of school in September until the close of schools in June. During July and August one salary check monthly will be paid.
All regular appointed teachers shall be allowed no "sick leave" with pay and for each school day's absence 1/200 of the yearly salary shall be deducted. This ruling to take effect at the opening of schools in September, 1933. A teacher will continue to receive full pay for five calendar days on account of death in the immediate family.
Visiting school authorized by the superintendent of schools or work pertaining to the schools which has been assigned by the superintendent may be allowed without loss of salary.
192
SIXTY-FIRST ANNUAL REPORT
The superintendent, principals, special teachers, teachers and janitors shall receive their salaries beginning with the opening of schools in September 1933 on a twelve months' basis rather than on a ten months' basis as formerly.
Substitute teachers shall be paid at the rate of $4.50 per day beginning with the opening of schools in September, 1933.
After September 1, 1933, the janitors shall be allowed no "sick leave" but five calendar days will be allowed with full pay for death in the immediate family.
R. STEWART ESTEN,
Superintendent of Schools.
193
TOWN OF ROCKLAND
To the Citizens of Rockland :
The members of your School Committee have endeav- ored to administer the business of the department with their best judgment and recommend for your consideration the detailed accounts as given in the different reports.
Often we hear that the educational equipment and methods of our day were good enough for us, so why not for our children. If this is true then we should return to the standards of living of the past, for education must fol- low requirements of living in the present.
We wish to call your attention to our crowded first grades. Better foundation for your children would result if the age of admission was raised to five and one half years, for a teacher cannot do her best work with a class composed of pupils five and six years of age.
The Committee herewith expresses its gratitude to the Rockland Woman's Club, the Kiwanis Club, the Milk Fund Committee, the Chamber of Commerce, and the Rockland Athletic Association for their interest and valuable assist- ance to the School Department.
We are constantly reminded also of the splendid work being done by our Superintendent of Schools, principals and teachers and we are glad to extend the commendation which is their due. As soon as business conditions will warrant it we know you will be glad to return to them the salary cut under which they have worked since April, 1932.
Respectfully submitted,
WILLIAM A. LOUD, Chairman, HELEN M. HAYDEN, Sec., BENJAMIN LELYVELD, II, E. STUART WOODWARD, M. AGNES KELLEHER.
