REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS
To the School Committee and Citizens of Southbridge:
This is my first report to you as your Superintendent of Schools since assuming the duties of this office on August 1, 1950.
Let me begin by saying that I greatly appreciate the co- operation and assistance which I have received from the School Committee, teachers, parents and citizens of Southbridge. You have made me aware of your support at all times, in affairs per- taining to the administration of schools; and even in the occa- sion of my father's recent death, your personal attention, sym- pathy and kindness to me at that time can never be forgotten. You have made me feel welcome and very much at home in this fine town of Southbridge.
May I take the liberty to cite a few general observations and commendations concerning your educational system in Southbridge:
1. The interest on the part of the citizenry in regard to schools in this community is almost universal. This is an exceptionally healthy situation and a definite indication of progress and the sincere desire to advance the cause of education.
2. The Town of Southbridge has every reason to be proud of its excellent staff of intelligent, well-trained and zealous school teachers and school personnel. The high degree of proficiency is quite apparent. The small turn- over of teachers each year speaks well for the profes- sional standards which you have endeavored to main- tain here.
3. The general attitude of pupils toward school life in Southbridge is good. Their personality, deportment and effort, their respect for teachers, and their participation in school activities, all reflect good home care and home training which is a tribute to their parents.
