Many thanks should be given the P. T. A. for the plastic dishes in the cafeteria, the Athletic Association for the electric refrigerator, the Old Home Day Committee for its gift of fifty

dollars toward tables and chairs in the Cafeteria, and to many individuals for their help in making this endeavor a great success.

TEACHERS
On September 26, 1951, Mrs. Evelyn Tenney resigned as teacher in the Leyden School. Mrs. Tenney had taught before her marriage in Leyden and had taught since September, 1945, in this period of service. Mrs. Tenney was a splendid teacher and had done an outstanding job. It was a tremendous loss to the Leyden schools. I know every parent wishes Mrs. Tenney the best of success in her new undertakings. Mrs. Mildred Rineer of Mount Hermon substituted while efforts were being made to obtain a permanent teacher. The School Committee was most fortunate in obtaining the services of Mrs. Ann Brissette, of Greenfield as teacher. Mrs. Brissette is a graduate of Fitchburg Teachers' College, taught grades 1-8 in Wendell; grade 4 in Turners Falls and in Greenfield as a substitute teacher.
43
At the beginning of the school year Leyden was paying its teachers $2100.00 a year, or the minimum salary allowed by law. Legislation is now in progress to raise that minimum to $2300.00. With the teacher shortage becoming more acute, it seems likely that teachers' salaries will have to be raised considerably if we are to attract suitable teachers to Leyden.
TEACHERS' WORKSHOP
On November 9, 1951, all the elementary teachers of Union #21 met at the new Elementary School at Bernardston. The morning was spent in studying the teaching of reading under the guidance of Miss Mary Hinton, Reading Consultant of Row, Peterson Company, publisher of our reading texts. Grades 2 and 4 were used for demonstration purposes. After lunch the re- mainder of the day was spent in group discussion of the modern trends in elementary school teaching with Miss Helen O'leary of Holyoke as leader. This type of teacher workshop gives every teacher a chance to discuss her problems and to add to her fund of experience from the experiences of others. This meeting has brought many desirable results.
FINANCES
On August 8, 1951, the State Legislature amended Chapter 70 of the General Laws giving to towns under two million dollars valuation, under certain conditions, an additional 25 percent reimbursement under Chapter 70. This meant an addition- al $1,284.93 for the Town of Leyden. Other, usual reimburse- ments made the total reimbursement $11,922.16. This is the greatest reimbursement ever to be received by the town, or 62.7 percent of the total cost. The net cost to the town for edu- cation in 1951 was $7,077.75 or the lowest since 1948.
During 1952 the State reimbursements have been estimated as follows:
Chapter 70 $ 6424 63 Vocational Tuition 920 00
Transportation 6000 00

Superintendent's salary
433 35
State Wards

The following table shows how the school dollar was spent in Leyden during 1951 in comparison with the same spending in group four towns (towns less than 5000 and not maintaining high schools) and with state-wide spending in schools. (The cost of new equipment is left out according to state methods of ac- counting).
This analysis shows that Leyden spent less in comparison than the towns of its group in salaries, textbooks, supplies, jan- itor services, repairs, libraries, health and miscllaneous and more for transportation and tuition. (Two items which the School Committee can do very little about).

For the coming year the School Committee feels it will be necessary to ask for $21,700.00. This is an increase of $2,700.00. Of all the increases, three items: High School Tuition $1,282.40; High School Transportation $453.82 and Local Transportation account for $2,696.82 of the $2,700.00 or all but $3.18. The
45
School Committee can do very little about these items, especially High School tuition.
If present reimbursement laws continue there should be an increase of reimbursement of $2,105.72. This would leave an in- crease of $594.37 to the local taxpayer.
It is true that every town must be considered in the light of its own problems and possibilities. There are grave problems facing the world and Leyden, as part of that world. No longer do world events have no effect upon the individual. The call for men and supplies in Korea, or anywhere on the globe, is reflected almost instantaneously in Leyden. We must, therefore, study and understand the problems of the world, we must conduct our town and ourselves so that we may take our part in their solu- tion, and above all, we must see to it that our boys and girls, as they go forth from our town to take their place in the world, are as well prepared as we can possibly make them. This is a tremen- dous task, and needs the help of everyone.
It is with appreciation that I thank the School Committee for its helpful guidance and encouragement during the last year. The School Committee has spent many hours discussing and solving the many problems that arise in the School Department. I also appreciate the valuable work of the teachers and super- visors. May I thank the parents, town departments, pupils and civic organizations for their help in making 1951 a successful school year.

Report of the Art Supervisor
To the Superintendent of Schools:
At this, the end of the second year of the art course, we know we have accomplished certain things. First, we have developed an attitude in the student toward participating in the program. The students willingly and confidently attempt all projects, which is a healthy attitude toward accomplishment, and this makes it possible for us to do a great deal more than one would imagine we could in the time we have. The basis of the course is to have a pleasant time and learn something, too.
Secondly, the students understand what constitutes a suc- cessful artistic endeavor. This is not based on how well a student can draw, but rather on the use of his taste, his interest, his ideas, his feelings, and his thoughts.
Third, with an understanding of the fundamentals behind us, we now are able to extend ourselves and try more varied projects. We have broadened our use of mediums. For instance, we have used chalk on grey paper, spattering-ink technique for Christmas cards, and water colors. The mediums we use must be thought of in terms of time and how well they can be moved from room to room.
We also entered various poster contests sponsored by the American Legion and the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, and the students did well in both. Poster contests and poster contest winners are not the main objective of the art course, but it is always rewarding to have students from our Union fare well in competition with students from other areas.
The art course deals with and pertains to the way we live today. Subjects, like a portrayal of the war in Korea, are chosen from that viewpoint. Also the program is varied. One week we may do a design, the next a holiday scene, the next a postcard, and the following week a portrait.
51
The teachers have put to work many of the ideas and meth- ods we have used in art class, to decorate the rooms or use in con- nection with regular work, which not only is gratifying but makes the art training broader than it might otherwise be.

Report of Music Supervisor
To the Superintendent of Schools:
I take pleasure in presenting my report as Music Supervisor in the Leyden public schools for 1951.
In grades one, two, three and four many rote songs are taught to provide a more extensive experience with vocal music than can be gained through reading songs.
Grades one and two have new music appreciation records that are used in teaching walking, marching, running, galloping, hopping, skipping and swaying to music. Grades three and four have new music appreciation records which provide an opportun- ity to listen to music which pupils cannot perform but they will want to hear.
Note reading starts in grade one in January with simple ex- ercises put on the board by the teacher, to teach quarter and half notes. Music note books on theory of music start in grade three and continue through grade eight.
In grades five, six, seven and eight many songs are taught with syllables in parts, also the playing of the tonette and record- er which are pre-band instruments.
A number of the girls from all grades are learning baton twirling during their noon hour with June Barton as instructor.
52
Musical Varieties of 1951 was presented in the town hall in May with every child in school taking part. This consisted of rhythm band, baton twirling, solos, duets, harmony groups, min- uet, square dancing and action songs. A collection was taken at intermission which netted fifty-eight dollars and thirty-nine cents. It was voted by the children to buy playground equip- ment with this money.
Special musical programs were worked up for educational week and Christmas.
I find it very pleasant working in Leyden. There is a friendly atmosphere throughout the town, which is a great help in doing good work with the children.
Respectfully submitted,
CLARA P. COOK,
Supervisor of Music
Report of the School Physician
To the Superintendent of Schools:
The annual physical examination of the school children took place in September in the new school building. This was a pleas- ant change for all concerned, and Leyden is to be congratulated on its fine new building. The new cleanliness and improved san- itary conditions should contribute to the children's health.
The examinations were conducted in the usual manner. The general health of the pupils was found to be good, and the num-
53
ber of defects found small. An itemized list of defects found fol- lows:
Defective Teeth 10
Bad throats 2
Poor posture 1
I wish to thank Mrs. Berry, the school nurse, who assisted me in the examinations, and the teachers for their cooperation.
Respectfully submitted, F. WILTON DEAN, M. D.,
School Physician
Report of the School Nurse
To the Superintendent of Schools:
The routine work of assisting Dr. Dean with health examina- tions, giving Audiometer hearing test and the Massachusetts Vision Test has been done. All defects have been reported to the parents. All children have been weighed and measured. A well- child clinic was held in July with Dr. Wallace examining and giv- ing advice to mothers. Regular visits have been made to the school throughout the year.
