126 Report of School Physician


Supt. of Schools, Pepperell, Mass.


Dear Sir :-


The first half of the school year has been an unusually difficult one as regards the health of the school children owing to the pre- valence of Scarlet Fever and Grippe, necessitating a marked dimi- nution in attendance at schools. It has been the policy of the School Authorities, and in my opinion rightly so, not to close the school, as it was felt that with proper supervision at the schools, children suffering from contagious diseases could be more readily detected and proper isolation enforced.


The physical examinations of pupils for year 1927-8 were completed as required by law and I regret that more parents do not take note of notices sent to them in regard to correction of tonsils and teeth when needed.


It is very gratifying to meet with such hearty cooperation from all authorities of the Town who have to do with the welfare of the school children and especially so to have such an efficient School Board who acted so promptly in the Scarlet Fever scare.


I wish to thank the School Authorities, School Nurse and Teachers for their kind assistance in my work.


Respectfully submitted,


HAROLD W. AYRES,


School Physician.


127 Report of School Nurse


To the Superintendent of Schools.


I am submitting the following report of school work for the year 1928.


The regular routine work, prescribed for the school nurse, such as : aiding the school physician in his examinations of the children, first aid in the schools and follow up work in the homes, has been carried on.


In July, a summer round-up in the form of a tonsil and ade- noid clinic was held at St. Joseph's Hospital, Nashua. Dr. C. E. Congdon, operating successfully on twenty-five children. This through the kind cooperation of the mothers and local doctors, was a success.


Dr. Martin of the State Department of Health, with his able assistant, Miss Lillian Stuart, State Nutritionist, in September, at the C. M. Shattuck School, held a clinic for under-weights and tubercular suspects, this in accord with the ten year follow up pro- gram.


A mental clinic under supervision of Dr. Ackerely, of Worcester, aided by three assistants was held in October. This clinic for the retarded children was also a success. At the above clinics, both school physician and nurse assisted.


In the Groton St. School, unfortunately, during October and November, we had the Scarlet Fever epidemic, but due to the time- ly action of the school physician, local doctors, and school board, the progress of the contagion was soon checked. Dr. Dudley, of the State Department of Health, visited our schools at the time and reported well pleased with work being done.


The sale of milk is still carried on at the schools, and at the


128


C. M. Shattuck School, Mr. Burney, has arranged a light repast at a minimum cost.


I wish to express my appreciation to the school physician, local doctors and school board, for their kind cooperation, during the recent epidemic in the schools. To the principals and teachers, I extend my sincere thanks for their help in making my school work more a pleasure than a task, due to their interest in the health of the child, and to the mothers for their confidence and acceptance of the performance of my duty.


Respectfully submitted,


ANN C. FLAHERTY, R. N.


School Nurse.
