The School Committee wish to thank the Superin- tendent, the Finance Committee, and the people in general for their co-operation which has made it possible to do many things for the best interests of the schools which otherwise could not have been accomplished. New steps need to be taken to further safeguard the health and gen- eral welfare of our boys and girls.

REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS
To the School Committee of Carver :
I herewith submit my third report as superintendent of the Carver Public Schools.
We were very fortunate to be able to retain the larger part of our last year's teaching force. No matter how good the equipment, no matter how interested the pupils,
70
the success of our schools depends on the ability of the teacher. A school may have everything needed in the way of equipment, but with a poor teacher the school will be a failure. The Carver teachers have worked faithfully the past year to improve the standard of our schools and have spared no pains to accomplish all that was planned for them to do. It is a real pleasure to work with such an enthusiastic and faithful body of teachers.
At the end of the school year in June Miss Prendergast, Miss Perkins, Miss Bassett and Mrs. Shurtleff resigned. To fill these vacancies we engaged Miss Mildred Sprowl, Miss Frances Cornish, Miss Mary Eldredge and Moiss Elizabeth Sampson. By means of teachers' meetings and by personal conference the new teachers were able to take up the work of those who had resigned without loss of time or effort.
The work at the High School has gone along this year in a very satisfactory manner under the direction of Mr. MacLeod. Excellent discipline has been maintained, the spirit of the school has been good and the results obtained satisfactory. I hope the day may soon come when our high school may expand by the addition of the new courses of study in addition to those already in the school.
At the present time but one course is available. This of course is strictly academic, fitting pupils for college or normal school but making no provision for the boy or girl who wants a vocational training. To a pupil who wishes to pursue a business career a course like ours offers little of interest. I do not have much sympathy with those who would compel every child to take the same course, no mat- ter what he was planning to do after leaving school, nor do I have any use for those courses which teach only carpentry or brass pounding. A wisely administered course, planned to give a pupil training in those fundamental subjects that all should have and also training along the lines of his inclination will be most satisfactory to all. It is useless to
71
force a pupil through Latin and Geometry if he has no desire to learn them, sees no value in them and is simply serving time until he can take up work that appeals to him. "Whether the causes of leaving school and going to work is economic pressure in the home or lack of interest in school, the unfortunate result to the child is the same. Some way must be found not only to make it possible for the poor family to keep its children in school, but for the school to keep the interest of the restless pupil.
I believe a business course would be of great assistance in keeping some of our boys and girls in high school. I would not like to see such a course established unless it was a good one, taught by a capable teacher. I should hope that only those pupils who were fitted for such work would take this course. I would also have the first two years of this course devoted to practical work in English, History and Mathematics, and the last two years devoted to in- tensive work in Stenography, Bookkeeping, Arithmetic and Typewriting. Of course nothing can be done at the pres- ent time as we have not enough room for our present work. It would be better to have no business course than to begin it without the proper place, proper equipment and proper teaching. I had hoped that by this time some steps might have been taken to bring all the schools of the town to one building. When this is done we can allow sufficient room for high school puposes. With three teachers in the high school the work could be reorganized to improve the work of the school.
Last year I devoted nearly all my report to the matter of school consolidation. I believe that we cannot advance much more until we have done something to do away with duplication of work. If two schools have five pupils in a certain grade far better results will be obtained if they are combined into one grade of ten pupils. In one of our schools there is a first grade of one pupil. The teacher is compelled to take away time from fifteen others to allow
72
this pupil to recite. The child has no interest in the work because there is no rivalry in the class. The teacher cannot become very enthusiastic hearing one pupil recite. It amounts to private tutoring for this pupil. At the same time within a mile and a half from this school there is a large first grade where this pupil would receive much more time and attention and would have the spirit of emulation created through trying to keep on even terms with the other members of the class. It does not seem wise to take time from a large group and devote it to a small group when the smaller number could be better accommodated at another school. The present plan of grading is a decided improve- ment over the old plan in force when I first came to this district but needs to be further developed to be fully satis- factory.
A new departure this year has been the establishment of courses in millinery and dressmaking. So much interest was shown by the ladies that three classes in millinery and three in dressmaking were successfully conducted last spring. We were fortunate in securing competent instruct- ors to teach the classes. By the accompanying table the work of these classes is shown. I feel that courses of this kind are very beneficial and should be continued. It should be understood that we are desirous to make these courses reach all the ladies in town. Every one is invited to join. Under no circumstances must the impression be gained that this work is only for a few.
Mrs. Eleanor Shaw, Mrs. James McKay and Mrs. Alice Shaw have been of great assistance in making these courses a success.

Last spring the State Board of Education required from each city and town an enrollment list by age and grade. I have added this at the end of this report. As our pupils enter school at the age of five and one-half years the rate of progress may be seen by studying this table. I also want to speak in praise of the pupils who have had perfect attendance for the year or a part of a year. Pupils who gain the habit of punctuality have acquired a habit that will be of great help to them in business life.
All the schools have made greater efforts to decrease inattendance. The pupils at Popes Point have been very much interested in good attendance. Only a case of sick- ness will cause a pupil from this school to remain at home.
In closing this report allow me to thank you for your uniform kindness and consnderation. I have thoroughly appreciated all that you have done to assist me and to aid me in making the school year successful.
Respectfully submitted,
W. J. B. MACDOUGALL,
Superintendent
