Secretary's Report.


The last year's report of the Secretary commenced as follows : " The past has been a busy year to all having the charge and management of our public schools. How properly to provide for the rapidly increasing number of children who crowded for admission into our schools, has been a matter of much perplexity. The report of the Super- intendent exhibits the increase from term to term. How to provide for an increase of six hundred and forty-one scholars during the year, when the schools were full at the commencement, has been a duty which could not be evaded, but must be met." The above remarks apply with equal force to the past year. During the year 1866 the new school-house on Providence street, for eight schools, was completed, as well as a new house at the Adriatic Mills, and one on Orange street, for two schools each. The house at Northville was enlarged for an additional school, and new rooms were prepared in the Ash street, Main street, and the Quinsigamond school houses. Although so much additional room was provided during the year, yet at its close, and at the commencement of the year 1867, the schools were found to be still crowded, and the number of applicants for ad- mission rapidly increasing.


During the first week of the May term of last year, four hundred and thirty-nine scholars who were not register- ed the term previous, were admitted to the schools. This unprecedented increase in so short a time necessita- ted the crowding of the school rooms, especially in the


81


lower schools, to their utmost capacity, without regard to the number that could be successfully taught by the teachers. This state of things was brought to the at- tention of the City Council, and they acted promptly by ordering the construction of two large houses; viz., the Dix street and the Lamartine street, capable of accom- modating eighteen schools. But the City Council and the School Board thought advisable to sell the Main street house, which accommodates five schools, which will make the net increase of room from the two new houses thirteen rooms. These eighteen rooms will all be occupied on the first of May next, and but few new schools will be organized, the Board having been obliged to anticipate the completion of these houses by estab- lishing new schools in other localities, which schools will be removed into these houses when completed.


It is hardly probable that another year of such rapid increase will follow, unless business should revive, but still we can expect no falling off in our population, or in the number of children in the public schools, but rather an increase, though less rapid than for the past two years.


It has been estimated that at least one thousand tene- ments have been constructed within the last year, count- ing the new houses and the additions to old ones, and the buildings not formerly occupied as tenements. These tenements will all or nearly all find occupants in fami- lies of persons who have not been able to procure them heretofore. Hundreds of persons have found employ- ment in this city for a few years past, who were obliged to provide for their families elsewhere. Upon two of our rail-roads, early and late extra trains have been run to the neighboring towns, for the accommodation of such workmen.


82


The City Clerk has returns of over a thousand births in the city during the year; the actual number was un- doubtedly considerably in excess of that, as not nearly all are recorded. In view of these facts, and of the fact that as business facilities increase, as they do yearly in this city of diversified business pursuits, we must expect a constantly increasing population, and constant demands for more school accommodations.


The attention paid to education in this city and the growing superiority of our schools, add not a little to our material growth and prosperity. There is no better in- vestment made for our moral, intellectual and material growth, than a liberal provision for a judicious, progres- sive system of practical common school education.


The calls for more school accommodations, for more teachers, with such salaries as will command the best talents, should be met cheerfully and promptly, and then those who have the management of our schools, should be held strictly accountable, that the means furnished should be judiciously expended in such a manner as to produce the best results.


There is another duty to be performed, and an impor- tant one, and this should devolve entirely upon the parents of the children of our city. Every child in the city should be permitted and required to attend our schools for a sufficient length of time to acquire such an education as will fit him for the responsible duties of life. Good as our schools are, liberally as they are endowed by the generosity of our city, yet in our midst hundreds of children are allowed to grow up in ignorance through the neglect, the avarice, and sometimes the poverty of the parents.


The table following will show that a majority of the children of this city never enter a Grammar School, and


83


a very large number never enter a Secondary School, or attend these schools so irregularly that they derive little or no benefit therefrom. Our mills, workshops, stores and other places of employment, furnish in too large a degree a means of gratifying the avarice of parents in gaining a little money from their children's labor, thus robbing them of that education which is their due, and which would be of such priceless advantage to them in fulfilling their duties as citizens and the parents of coming generations.


There were 3750 seats occupied in the Primary and Secondary schools during the whole of last year, and in the Grammar and High schools there were but 1232 seats occupied.


The startling fact therefore appears that in this com- munity, where so much attention is paid to popular edu- cation, less than one third of our children never enter a Grammar school.


The average age of children in the Secondary schools is eleven years and three months ; therefore two thirds of our children are taken out of the schools before they reach the age of twelve years.


The parents of the children and the persons who em- ploy children under the age of fourteen years, who have not attended some public school for six months in the year preceding such employment, are violating a law of the commonwealth and are liable each to a fine of fifty dollars for such offence. This law should be rigidly en- forced. In some cases the parents need the money earned by these children, but it would be of far greater benefit to the community at large to supply that pit- tance thus earned, than that the children should be robbed of their education.


The children of parents of foreign birth, as will be


11


84


seen by the annexed table, are in a very large propor- tion, those that are taken from the schools at a very early age. A large portion of their parents come from countries where public education does not receive that attention that it does in New England. They have not themselves enjoyed these advantages, and do not appreci- ate them as do the parents brought up within the influ- ence of New England institutions. Let us analyze that table. There were belonging to the Sub-Primary schools of the city on the 23d day of November last 1213 child- ren ; of these 349 were of American and 864 of foreign parentage. In the Intermediate Primary there were 372 children ; of these 103 were of American and 269 of foreign parentage. In the Primary schools there were 1180 children, 437 of American and 743 of foreign pa- rentage. In the Secondary Schools there were 1102 children, 587 of foreign and 515 of American parentage. In the lower grade of Grammar Schools there were 758 children, 302 of foreign and 445 of American parentage, In the 2d grade of Grammar Schools there were 206 children, 44 of foreign and 162 of American parentage. In the highest grade of Grammar Schools, there were 105 scholars, 87 of American and 18 of foreign paren- tage. In the High School there were 169 scholars, 151 of American, and 18 of foreign parentage.


It will be seen that as we go upward in the grades, the proportion of children of foreign parentage rapidly di- minishes. It also shows how large a proportion of the children of both American and foreign parentage that go into the lowest grade of Grammar schools, there grad- uate at the average age of twelve years and seven months.


This table also shows another important and interest- ing fact, viz., that a very large proportion of the increase


85


of the population of the city, and if the fact was asser- tained, of the country at large, is to be credited to those who have emigrated to this land and made this their adopted country. The manner of living, and the habits of Americans, especially in our cities, are such that they do little towards increasing the population. How few American families in our cities have more than two or three children, yet this would not keep their numbers good, and if left to them alone the American race would in time run out. But our country will grow and increase in population nevertheless, by the emigration from other countries of men and women of rugged constitutions, of frugal habits of living, who, by their labor preserve their robust health and contribute large additionsto our popu- lation. Is there anything alarming in these facts. Yes and no. Yes to the fact in regard to our American de- generacy in this particular. No to the fact that the emigrants to the country are supplying so large a portion of our population, provided they are educated, and fitted to become good citizens. Most of these men and women have fled from bad governments at home, and have ad- opted this free country as their future home and the home of their children through coming generations.


In view of these facts how vastly important becomes our system of free schools, and of the laws compelling parents to give their children a competent education. In this lies the salvation of the country.


Thirty-seven hundred and fifteen (3715) certificates have been given at this office for admissions and re-ad- missions to the schools, and for changes from one school to another during the year.


Two thousand five hundred and sixty-two (2562) scholars have been promoted and assigned to other schools during the same time. Sixteen hundred and sixteen


86


(1616) in May, and nine hundred and forty-six (946) in Nov., or a total assignment to the schools, changes and promotions of six thousand two hundred and seventy- seven (6277), or an average of 26.1 for each school day in the year.


Much dissatisfaction is sometimes expressed by parents at the assignment of their children to the schools, and it is often an impossibility to assign children to the schools to which they would by location properly belong, when, as has been the case in many of our schools, the past year, that school is already over-crowded. It would be bad policy to go almost daily into a school and remove a scholar to make room for one who desires admission, simply because the one already in the school happens to live a little nearer another school house than one desir- ing admission. The only rule that can be justly adopted, is to send a new applicant to the nearest school of the grade in which room can be found for him.


The cure of the great evil of tardiness has received more than ordinary attention during the past year. Teachers have been required to give, in their term re- ports, the number of cases of tardiness in their schools during the term. This has operated to cause teachers to make greater exertions to remedy the evil. These returns show where the evil exists to the greatest extent, and where teachers and children should be stimulated to take more efficient measures to remedy it.


The whole number of cases of tardiness reported in the schools the past year, was 30,727.


During the first term there were reported 10,726, or an average of 2.44 to cach scholar. For the second term there were reported 6.323, or an average of 1.40 to each scholar. For the third, or short term, there were reported 4.861 or an average of 1.01 to each scholar. For


87


the fourth or long term there were reported 8,807, or an average of 1.87 per scholar.


The first and last terms include the winter months, when there is more tardiness than during the summer months, the last term of the year being the most unfa- vorable.


These returns show a commendable improvement dur- ing the year, the last and most unfavorable term show- ing 1.87 per scholar, to 2.44 per scholar for the first term.
