NEEDS FOR FURTHER USE OF TRAINING FACILITIES


The circumstances created by the war at the beginning of this year dictate two major training needs and ample facilities are available to satisfy them. They are:


1 - Coordinated technical courses between the High and Trade Schools for both boys and girls.


2 - Pre-induction training for boys 16 to 18, and men 18 to 38 years of age.


I recommend that provisions be made to acquaint boys and girls; their teachers, parents and friends with the opportunities that Southbridge provides to train its citizens for immediate and ef- fective service in its industries and the Armed Services.


Respectfully submitted, COLE TRADE SCHOOL


CLARK H. MORRELL, Director

In the preparation of this report, each department has sub- mitted a report of its work. I wish to take this opportunity to thank each teacher who has submitted material to make this report a comprehensive survey of the high school offerings.


ART DEPARTMENT


An elective four-year course in Art is offered students at Mary E. Wells High School. The course is extremely wide in range when one considers the number of students enrolled in the school. It in- cludes the following: free-hand drawing, pencil and pastel drawing, water color painting, lettering, pen and ink drawing, cartoon draw- ing, and silk screen painting. In addition covers in three colors are designed for the Crimson and Gray issues.


The Art Department's contribution to the war curriculum is a two -year course in Mechanical Drawing. This course is open to both girls and boys.


COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT


The program followed by the Commercial Department aims, as much as possible, to be in keeping with the demands made by our local of- fices. Besides the traditional subjects such as Bookkeeping, Type- writing, and Shorthand, we have been stressing machine training, re- quired of so many of our graduates. We provide training in not only the knowledge of how machines perform in. the office, but also in the possession of operating and marketable skills.


All members of the 1943 commercial class obtained positions soon after graduation, many being placed as early as May before graduation. As a result the demand exceeded the supply.


-125-


The majority of the commercial pupils received valuable work experience at many of our local factories and offices while they were still in school. This was made possible due to the one ses- sion day.


ENGLISH DEPARTMENT


The English Department has endeavored to stress the value of American 'citizenship to each student by pointing out the value of a thorough and complete understanding of our language and our liter- ature. The various classes have put their letter writing drill in- to practical purpose as many letters have gone from the classes to our boys in the service.


Naturally the every day aims of the department have not been neglected. Word study, grammar drill, reading, book reports, theme writing, and a study of the most precious gems from all literature, still occupy the prominent position they have always held in the curriculum.


GUIDANCE DEPARTMENT


On November 1, 1943 the School Committee elected Mr. Paul Dion to headup the guidance program. The pattern, inasmuch as the Mary E. Wells High School is concerned, follows closely the work of pre- vious years. The time devoted to guidance in the past was limited to one or two periods per day. Necessarily much had to be omitted because of the time element involved. For a more comprehensive survey I refer you to Mr. Dion's report which is contained in an- other section of this book.


HO ME ECONOMICS DEPARTMENT


The Household Arts course came back to school this fall to a newly decorated department. The pantry was painted by the Trade School boys, under the supervision of Mr. Andrews. The color scheme of the pantry was planned by the girls and likewise the girls re- arranged all the equipment so that utensils would be more con- veniently placed.


The classes started the year off by "Victory Canning. " Many jars of vegetables were canned for the hospital and delivered to the hospital by the girls.


There have been two additional courses in the curriculum this year. First, junior and senior girls are given advanced work in clothing, simple millinery, and accessories. ..


Secondly, there is the new "Victory Course." This course has brought the facilities of the Household Arts Department to a large number of girls. Heretofore, the only girls who benefited from these facilities were those enrolled in the Household Arts course. The girls in this new course have, for the most part, brothers or close relatives in


the service. This course deals with the con- tributions and adjustments which individuals must make in their day- by-day activities for better home and family living during war times.


-126-


INTERNATIONAL MORSE CODE


In September, 1943 a class in Radio Morse Code was started. This is an authorized pre-induction course. The materials used are those prescribed by the United States Army. So far the enrollment in the course has been limited to boys, preferably upperclassmen.


That the course is of value to boys anticipating active service has been demonstrated by the students who have already been in- ducted. They claim that the course helped them to pass tests for signal corps work in the Army and Navy forces.


LANGUAGE DEPARTMENT


The courses in the Language Department follow the plan of former years with one addition; namely, the inclusion of Spanish in the curriculum. This course was designed to prepare pupils for post- war relations with Central and South America.


MATHEMATICS DEPARTMENT


The Mathematics Department, in complying with government re- quests, has started its second year of double periods for all ele- mentary methematics; namely, algebra, elementary and advanced, and plane geometry.


There is an extensive use of mathematics in all branches of our armed forces . With this in mind, we recommend all freshmen boys take Algebra I. This has increased the number of students to such an extent that three additional classes have been required to accommodate them.


SCIENCE DEPARTMENT


There has been considerable change in the curriculum of the Science Department. The fundamental courses of general science, biology, and chemistry are maintained as in past years. The big change has come in the increased emphasis on physics and the added course in aeronautics.


The course in physics gives to boys who have had three years of mathematics a much needed background for the air force and the V-12, V-5, V-6, and A-12 programs. These programs offer specialized training at many of our leading universities for a period of from eight to twenty-four months in such fields as engineering, aviation, dentistry, medicine, and laboratory work. It is almost essential for the high school boys to be able to offer physics and mathematics to be eligible for any of thes programs .


The new course in aeronautics represents science in its best form. It is basically cultural and contains broad application to the living environment of civilized men; at the same time, it con- tributed directly to vocational education. This study contributes specifically to the development of a reservoir of potential air force personnel; it also provides training which can be freely utilized in many occupations which are directly or indirectly as- sociated with civil aviation. These advantages emerge because the basic elements of aeronautics are equally applicable to civil and military aviation.


-127-


SOCIAL STUDIES DEPARTMENT


The fact that nearly all of our high school boys and some of our girls will see service in the armed forces of cur country has greatly colored the material covered in the courses given by this department. More than ever emphasis is placed upon the privileges and responsibilities of citizenship. The students are urged to ac- quire a thorough understanding of our history, its relation to this vast struggle and to the post-war problems.


THE ACCELERATED PROGRAM.


It has been necessary to innovate an accelerated program in the school. Thisis for those boys whose eighteenth birthday would take them into the armed forces before graduation. By this program each boy is assured of his diploma. The diploma gives each boy the chance for Officer's Candidate School. Without it, he would not be eligible . Further, any boy who wishes to make ready for the V-5, V-12, V-6, and Army 12 programs benefits greatly by the additional work of- fered in this program. This program as well as the set curriculum of the Mary E. Wells High School is designed to give our boys and girls the best preparation possible for their future efforts.


Despite this wartime routine we have tried to preserve our normal requirements as far as possible. We still have our club activities, traffic squad, and safety committee. The Junior Red Cross unit is still functioning, and our Victory course renders various services such as supplying food during the blood plasma do- nations. Our Commercial Department still does much work for various defense organizations in the way of clerical work. The teachers and administrators are al; ays ready and willing to advise the boys and girls as to their present and future activities. Yet behind this all is the one outstanding fact: our nation is at war. Therefore, our policies and courses change to meet this emergency.


I express my appreciation to Mr. Channing H. Greene, Super- intendent of Schools, to every member of the School Committee, and to the taxpayers of the town of Southbridge for this opportunity to present my report on the Mary E. Wells High School, and for the continued support displayed these people of the educational policies of the high school.


Respectfully submitted,


JAMES M. ROBERTSON

REPORT OF VISUAL-AIDS DEPARTMENT


To the Superintendent of Schools:


It again becomes my duty, as director of the Southbridge Visual- Aids Department, to submit to you a report of the progress of this department.


The Visual-Aids Department is gaining wider recognition in all of the New England States and in various parts of the country through the New England Section of the National Visual Education Associa- tion. This recognition has been made possible only through the cooperative work of all the teachers who are making adequate use of the available teaching aids and who find in this department a source of valuable and interesting material.


During the past year, we have added new material in relation to the war effort: 1. A complete set of 2" x 2" kodachrome slides on "Aircraft Identification".


2. Filmstrips "Behind the Scenes of a coast to coast flight", "The light airplane goes to war", and others.


3. Other material in the present vital science subjects, chemistry and physics.


Moreover, a variety of subjects have been added to our past collection: American authors and literature, English authors and literature, have been widely used since their purchase. Additions in Biology, Art, Mathematics, General Science, and many other fields, has also been made.


It is the hope of the department that the teachers will realize more and more the importance of these aids as a necessary supple- ment to the regular classroom work.


The department, since September, has widened its services by allowing not only the teachers, but also the student to make use of whatever material is available for some of their own personal v. ork.


During the year 1943, a total of 34, 495 pupils saw 125 different educational motion pictures in 359 showings.


The following tabulation gives a more detailed account of the material used and of the work done in our public schools during the past year:

REPORT OF ATTENDANCE OFFICER


To the Superintendent of Schools:


We have made an earnest attempt to prevent the spread of juve- nile delinquency, which is affecting all parts of the nation, by constantly investigating, checking, and remedying its probable causes insofar as it is possible for us. Here in Southbridge, there has been a remarkable increase in the number of cases in- vestigated and a noticeable augmentation in truancies as has not yet been witnessed.
