FINALLY.
It is pleasant to remember the harmony which has prevailed in this Board. It is a not less agreeable duty, to bear testimony to the liberal care for the interests of education which has prevailed the past year in the sister branches of the City Government; and to recur to the hearty interest of the Mayor in all that concerns the welfare of our public schools. Personally, I have to thank the teachers for their faithfulness to duty; and each member of this Board for the confidence and co-operation which have lightened the onerous duties of a responsible post.
All which is most respectfully submitted.
ALBERT P. MARBLE,
Superintendent of Public Schools.

SCHOOLS .- SECRETARY'S REPORT.
Two thousand five hundred seventy-nine and Too dollars of the foregoing expenditure was ordered by the City Council, the amount "to be paid out of the appropriation for the support of schools." No additional appropriation being made.
As will be seen, much the largest portion of the extraordinary expenditure was for the completion of buildings, yards and appurtenances, which should have been charged to the appropria- tion for the erection of those buildings; but as the work was left unfinished by the Committee of the City Council, and the appropriations exhausted, the work was left for this Board to complete and pay for out of the appropriation for the Support of Schools.
This has been the practice for years past; no school house has been built, the appropriation for which has been sufficient to com- plete the building and yards; no additional appropriations have been made, and the buildings and yards have not been finished up in a proper manner before being placed in the hands of the School Department; and in no case, except in that of the High School, has an appropriation been made for the furnishing of the buildings; they have therefore been furnished by the School Board and been paid for out of its appropriation.
In this way have the expenditures of the School Board been swelled from year to year to such an extent as to give the impression that there is extravagance in the expenditures of the department.
With the exception of an expenditure of $1,180 80 by this Board, the new High school building should be excepted in the foregoing remarks. Substantially that building has been erected and completed with the grounds surrounding it by the City Council; and they should have the entire credit therefor, from its inception to its completion, and for having made appro- priations from time to time to cover the outlay.
The same may be said of the removal and fitting up of the old High School building, which has been done at an expense, in- cluding the lot, of $37,989 26; this amount being more than the entire cost of either the Dix, Woodland, Belmont or Lamar- tine street houses and lots. The School Board have now appro- priated $1,500 more for the fitting up of the attic rooms, to receive the models belonging to the Drawing school.
122
CITY DOCUMENT .- No. 27.
In 1867, under the direction of the Committee on school houses of the School Board, the partitions in this building were all taken out, the rooms re-arranged, the furniture taken out, repaired and put back with additions, all for the sum of $1,994 23.
In 1868 the entire inside of the Thomas street house was taken out, the rooms re-arranged, ten good convenient school rooms and double stairways put in, at an expense of $2,731 81. This was done under the direction of the Committee on school houses of the School Board, after plans made by the Secretary of the Board; and as he had not sufficient knowledge of architecture to know where to put in the expense, and having no per centage thereon, the work was done for the above very moderate sum.
ORDINARY EXPENDITURES.
Of the ordinary expenditures but little need be said. More than two-thirds of the amount is for salaries of teachers. These salaries are not higher than in other cities of the size of our own, and not so high as those of several of our eastern cities; which fact tends to draw from us our best teachers.
But few people comprehend the largeness of the work and re- sponsibility entrusted to the Board of School Committee, nor can they take it in, in its full magnitude, until they attempt to visit and examine the schools of the city. Few have the leisure to do this; for if three schools should be visited each half of a day, it would take over five weeks time to visit them all. After it is done, and they have looked into the faces of between seven and eight thousand children, the men and women of the next generation, in whose hands the interests, the moral standing and material prosperity of this community are to be intrusted, they would be ready to acknowledge that the amount spent for education is the best investment we can possibly make, and yields the largest returns.
SUPERINTENDENT OF PUBLIC BUILDINGS.
The difficulties heretofore alluded to, of drawing a line between the duties of the City Council and the School Board in relation
123
SCHOOLS .- SECRETARY'S REPORT.
to the erection, completion and repairs of school houses, &c., and the increasing duties of the Secretary of the School Board, rendering it impossible for him to give that personal attention to these "matters which seems to be required, point to the ex- pediency of providing for the appointment of a Superintendent of Public Buildings.
The school houses comprise nearly all of our public buildings. Aside from these are the City Hall, Public Library building, and a few engine houses. There are thirty-four school houses, con- taining one hundred and sixty-three school rooms; the value of these houses is $585,600 00, and the lots upon which they stand are valued at $242,735 00; there are in these rooms furniture and heating apparatus to the value of $40,000 00. All of this property is in constant use, occupied as it is by from seven to ten thousand children and teachers.
What prudent individual having this amount of property, real and personal, filled with tenants, if he could not give personal, undivided attention to it, would hesitate to employ some compe- tent person at a good salary to look after it and see that it was kept in good repair and preservation ?
Three men are employed constantly in the repairs of houses and furniture, the making of furniture, &c. Most of the extra- ordinary repairs are, and must be, contracted for with other parties, as well as the ordinary repairs of the heating apparatus, black-boards, painting, &c.
162 stoves, 12,400 lbs., or more than six tons of pipe, 7,216 school desks and chairs, 173 teachers' desks, 936 chairs, 394 settees, &c., &c., to be kept in repair and looked after, with the repairs and care of the houses and grounds, is enough, it would appear, to occupy one man's entire time.
The Secretary of the School Board has now more clerical duties to perform and detail to look after than are imposed on any other city officer, and should not be required to attend to any other duties. He has in a measure been able to attend to the repairs of buildings, &c., only by the aid of an experienced overseer of repairs, who has been employed in this capacity for many years.
If a department of public buildings is established, and a com-
124
CITY DOCUMENT .- No. 27.
missioner appointed, the School Board will be relieved from all care and responsibility of repairs of houses and furniture, and the appropriation for the department be devoted to the actual ex- pense for the support of the schools themselves.
. The School Board should however retain the power they now have, (but which has been uniformly disregarded), to approve of the location of each new school house, as well as of the plans and details for the house and grounds.
