Report of School Committee


To the Citizens of Harwich :


In the last year now drawn to its close, your com- mittee feel that the schools have made satisfactory prog- ress.


In the absence of any other policy, partial consol- idation has continued to be followed and expen- ditures have been made at the Center and Port Schools By the orders of the State Building Inspector fire es- capes were added to these buildings. A complete change of plan in the lighting of the Grammar building was adopted. At the Port complete new toilets for both schools with a new building was provided. These im- provements will be made in other schools as means are available.


So far as can be seen no great change in appropria- tions are needed in the immediate future. Salaries seem fairly adequate and up to adjoining towns.


In November Supt. L. G. Williams closed a fifteen year term of service in the Schools of Harwich. This is by far the longest period any one occupant has held the office and was characterized by steady, persistent work for the betterment of the schools. Your committee was fortunate in the choice of Mr. W. F. Sims as his suc- cessor. On account of this change the special committee


6


chosen at the last annual town meeting for any general improvements has not accomplished much. We recom- mend this committee be continued and with the assis- tance of the new Superintendent when he becomes fully acquainted we feel sure valuable work can be accom- plished.
