Since September, 1945, we have been able to secure Doctor Dalitzky as school dentist and Miss Vartanian for dental hygenist. We have been able to carry the dentistry on with the help of the Lions Club, Agawam Parent- Teachers Association, and the Feeding Hills Women's Club.


The cost is so low that every child can have his teeth taken care of. The children have responded very well.


Up to date we have:

We have one family of Albino children. They are in need of glasses. The Lions Club took care of one child; the North Agawam Firemen's Fund took care of another child.

Eight children went to camp, each gained four to nine pounds.


172


I feel the Feeding Hill's lunch room has proved it- self.


We would appreciate the continued cooperation of the parents in checking the children, before they leave for school, for any symptoms. If found, call your family doctor.


I wish to take this opportunity to thank the differ- ent clubs in town for their assistance.


I sincerely appreciate the cooperation of the Super- intendent, School Committee, Principals; and most of all the teachers who have shown an interest in the children. I thank the parents for their cooperation.

REPORT OF THE ART DEPARTMENT


To the Superintendent of Schools :


Expressions in art display thought most clearly, and such art demonstrates an individual's thinking power. It is this thinking power that we hope to develop in our edu- cation. Hence, art as a subject is merely one, yet a most interesting outlet for this aim.


Tennyson's immortal words, "the old order chang- eth, yielding place to new" highlights this aim-the need for new, sound thoughts in an ever-changing world. Any child introduces his mental views in his creative works and from these will appear expressions useable in our world. Not only brilliant minds have power to produce such ideas, but the simple thinking of any one leads to successful findings which can be "shared."


It is the sharing of one's successes that the world so desperately needs. A selfish grasping, retaining the best for one's self actually causes a retardation in the world, with jealousy and strife as inevitable evils. Shar- ing, however, has many powers. The world advances, of course, with the opportunities presented by a new scheme, but the harmony of feeling caused by the shar- ing or the giving of one's accomplishments has even greater potentialities-friendliness and good will. When a child, an adolescent, an adult, or a very old person real- izes and practices this, he is a happier individual and the world is a better place because of him.


Hence, we in the field of art education have a liberal opportunity to take our place in the world of thinking, expressing, and sharing our good fortunes in concrete forms. Even the children with crude drawings have de- picted the charm of ideas; even if their illustrations are not technically most superior, they display valuable thought; and the sketches that are rough or direct con- tain fresh elements with a new-found vim. In other words, the true art quality is not its obvious beauties


174


but the honest idea which is in greater evidence for a small or large world to use as it can the best.


In the Agawam schools, we try to utilize our art ac- complishments by sharing our work with each other, with groups, for clubs and plays, and for general school activities, as well as for the Red Cross and other com- munity groups. We make posters, greeting cards, decor- ations, scenery, novelties for parties, tray favors. We de- light in friendly competition. In any of our contests an unbiased group, untouched by the intimacy of the young artists' labors and joys, decides on the winners. Yet, we realize the winners include those who have used art standards as best they were able, but for whom the joys of purposeful achievement came foremost in their hearts.


In this way we teach ourselves and learn from others, finding happiness in purposeful attainment. When our children have faith in their works, realizing themselves that true art quality uses originality and clear thinking, our hopes of cultivating their minds in creative fields ex- pands, and our ambitions of gaining triumphs for the world is strengthened.

REPORT OF THE MUSIC DEPARTMENT


To the Superintendent of Schools:


I hereby submit to you my report for the year 1945. My activities are :


1. Teaching and Supervising in the Elementary Grades.


a. A twenty to forty minute lesson in each class room once in two weeks.


b. An assembly for the fourth,fifth and sixth grades at least once in three weeks.


c. A songfest for all the children of the town (during the war years this has been held in each building. Beginning with June, 1946, we hope to resume the community event at the High School.)


2. Teaching in the Junior High School.


a. One forty-five minute period per week for each division of the Seventh and Eighth grades. This time to cover singing, theory, and listening lessons.


b. Seventh and Eighth Grade Glee Clubs and Orchestra one period per week for each during the last half of the year.


3. Teaching and coaching in the High School.


a. Girl's Chorus (135 enrolled this year) two periods per week for one credit.


b. Boy's Glee Club two periods per week for one credit.


c. Orchestra two periods per week for one credit.


d. Coaching for operetta and other public performances. Three of our students were accepted for the Junior Symphony. Our boys' quartet made several public per- formances. A sextet of girls and a small group of instrumentalists attracted favor- able attention.


4. Coaching for Adults.


a. Parent-Teacher Organizations.


176


b. Churches


c. Clubs.


This outline will show you that every minute of the school day and many hours outside of school time are scheduled with routine music teaching and coaching. We have five activity periods per week at High School and I have six classes for them. Therefore, one of these must come after school. The Junior High Glee Clubs cannot be started until after Christmas each year, because the hour before and after school as well as three or four evenings each week are taken up with operetta rehearsals. The Junior High Glee Clubs and Junior High Orchestra re- hearse during the noon hour.


You have attended our Elementary School Songfests, our Maytime Festival at High School, our operetta, Pi- rates of Penzance, the P .- T. A. Council Banquet and vari- ous club programs and assemblies where our girls and boys have supplied music, so I need not point out to you the high standard of performance. I thoroughly believe in the old adage, "Not failure, but low aim, is crime." I think the interest in music shown by so many students proves their appreciation of this.


However, we have two urgent needs. We should have one or two more periods a week for each Junior High School Music class. We have one-third of the time al- lowed for music in the Springfield Schools, and one-half the time allowed for music in the West Springfield Schools. Our allotment is not sufficient to carry out the program recommended by the State Board of Education.


The other need is for a definite instrumental pro- gram culminating in a High School Band. To meet this need there should be an assistant in the music depart- ment. Even then, we could use hours more every day helping our young people with the many and varied mu- sical projects which are of vital interest to them.


Every year is a busy one but this one has been par- ticularly satisfying. Such a pleasant year is due in great measure to the splendid cooperation of pupils, teachers, principals, and you, Mr. Phelps. Thank you for the priv- ilege of serving Agawam through music.


Respectfully submitted,


RUTH A. PERRY, Supervisor of Music

REPORT OF THE INDUSTRIAL ARTS. DEPARTMENT


To the Superintendent of Schools :


With Victory a reality after almost four years of the greatest struggle the world has ever known, we can once more turn our full thoughts to the education of all Ameri- can Youth.


It is with a feeling of pride that I review what the boys of the Agawam Junior-Senior High School have ac- complished during the war years. Our department made over 200 small projects for the Red Cross. Items such as cribbage boards, checker boards, writing boards, lamps, ash trays, ash stands, and small games. Projects of a larger nature included 10 ping-pong tables and 300 traction splints for the army hospitals. Other items of a different nature included 12 stretchers for the Agawam civilian defense, as well as 30 scale-model aeroplanes for the Navy Bureau of Aeronautics. All of these projects aided in the war effort and the boys gained much satis- faction from the favorable comments received as well as the valuable experiences gained from doing this type of work.


The boys have contributed much time and effort in order to assist in making our new athletic field at Aga- wam Center more complete. A new baseball backstop was erected at the field by them which saved the town quite a sum of money. Two portable ticket booths were constructed for the convenience of the ticket sellers at the football games.


Many other jobs of a smaller nature have been done this past year such as repairing school furniture, mak- ing bulletin boards, and bookcases for the different schools in town. In spite of these extra duties just men- tioned, each boy finishes at least one worth-while article to take home. Most of these may be seen at our annual exhibit which is held during the last week of school.


178


Our department was most fortunate in obtaining two drill presses through the Springfield Ordnance District. These machines were classed as surplus war material and were valued at $150. They were obtained at no cost to the town and are a valuable addition to the shop.


I am grateful to you, Mr. Phelps, the School Com- mittee, and all who have helped to make this department function so well during this hectic war period.


Respectfully submitted, RAYMOND E. HARRIS Supervisor of Industrial Arts

AGRICULTURAL DEPARTMENT REPORT


To the Superintendent of Schools:


Enrollment in the Agricultural Department has more than doubled in the past year. Judging teams were or- ganized last summer and capable teams in vegetable, poultry, and livestock judging have participated in sev- eral regional contests. Public-speaking contests, suspend- ed during the war, are again promoted by the Massachu- setts Future Farmers. The Agricultural Achievement Award, presented by the American Agriculturist Foun- dation, is an incentive for improved interest in our de- partment. Several awards are available when our agri- cultural pupils qualify.


We have tried to meet the vocational requirements in farm-shop and in farm-mechanics courses. The farm- mechanics course was conducted at the Tractor and Im- plement Sales, West Springfield. The facilities there are shared with West Springfield Agricultural classes under the difficulties of increasing enrollment in both depart- ments. This course in farm-mechanics should be con- ducted in Agawam.


I have tried to make our agricultural school-year co- incide with the regular school-year. Normally, the agri- cultural year extends from September to September, to include required summer farm-work. By enrolling in June, pupils may now do the first summer's work and complete their year the following June when other cours- es end. A serious drawback to this plan is the tendency of some boys to change to the agricultural course during the school year; and thus revert to the old category. I think the newly established guidance program will assist in this problem as it has in others. Several agricultural boys have received the benefit of this guidance, which I think is an extremely valuable service.


I appreciate your interest in the agricultural depart- ment and also the help of our director, the faculty, the school committee, and the advisory board in solving our many problems.


Respectfully submitted, L. H. MOSELEY, Agricultural Instructor

REPORT OF THE HOME ECONOMICS DEPARTMENT


To the Superintendent of Schools:


Homemaking is the goal of most girls. At some time in her life every girl needs to be able to cook a bit and at least use the fundamental stitches of sewing.


Home Economics aims to adjust the girl to her im- mediate conditions and environment, and if continuous encouragement is given each girl to carry out appropriate work at home, she should develop a true appreciation of the home and the beauties of the highest type of home life. If pupils can be stimulated in their home economics class to be more thrifty, industrious and charitable in their family circles, greater home happiness and con- tentment will be enjoyed. Pupils develop their resource- fulness and initiative according to the opportunities af- forded them for individual and group activity.


The material used in our classes is meant to come within the experience of present-day girls and in ac- cordance with their daily contacts, interests and responsi- bilities both at school and at home: namely, wise selec- tion of food for themselves and others; good manners and courtesy; preparing and serving meals; marketing; planning for special occasions; wise selection of fabrics; good style; and proper methods for construction and care of clothing. Note books which are kept by both foods and clothing pupils should have an educational value for fu- ture use.


The enrollment of all classes conducted in this course was much the same as the previous year, and the annual exhibit was held in June.

REPORT OF THE VOCATIONAL HOUSEHOLD ARTS DEPARTMENT


To the Superintendent of Schools:


We have a larger enrollment in the Household Arts Department this year. The pupils have shown an in- creased interest in home activities and have developed a better understanding of the need for training in home- making.


Students taking the first and second-year programs have been combined into one group. A careful adaptation of subject matter, classroom activities, and pupils own needs were considered in the selection of the courses of study. It is possible for each student to accomplish as much as her time and ability permits.


To interpret homemaking in the broadest sense our program includes work in the following:


Foods and Nutrition-Special emphasis on organiza- tion of work to save time and energy.


Clothing Selection and Construction-To increase in- terest and appreciation in personal appearance.


Home Decoration-To develop better taste in household articles.


Consumer Education-Judging values in a variety of consumer goods that the buyer may save money and se- cure increased satisfaction.


The Family and Its Relationships-To develop in the minds of the pupils their responsibilities as members of a family group.


Believing that homemaking is the most important business in life, it is sincerely hoped that the citizens of Agawam will show an interest in Vocational Homemak- ing and encourage enrollment in this course.


Respectfully submitted, MARJORIE B. KELLY,


Household Arts Instructor

REPORT OF THE GIRLS' PHYSICAL EDUCATION DEPARTMENT


To the Superintendent of Schools:


Physical Education begins when a baby learns to grasp his first rattle and proceeds to develop as a child learns to sit, stand, walk, run, etc. The further specific training into skills of these natural movements of child growth develops and stimulates the vital organs and sys- tems of the body. These factors give a basis for an or- ganized program.


In Agawam we have a graded program of activities which starts in the seventh grade and continues through the last year in high school. The aims are: (1) to develop organic vigor, provide neuro-muscular training, and pro- mote bodily and mental poise; (2) to promote a hygienic school and home life; (3) to create a wholesome interest in recreational activities so that there will be a desire to continue them after completion of the high school course.


The program contains both curricular and extra- curricular activities. These include team games, dancing, apparatus, gymnastics, and posture training.


Respectfully submitted, DOROTHY R. HASTINGS


Supervisor of Girls' Physical Education


184


REPORT OF THE BOYS' PHYSICAL EDUCATION DEPARTMENT


To the Superintendent of Schools :


The following is a re'su'me' of the Boys' Physical Education program for the past year.


Despite the loss by resignation of the part-time as- sistant, we have been able to carry on to date a construc- tive and diversified program of field and gymnasium ac- tivity and a successful schedule of interscholastic sports competition.


All boys found physically fit were required to take active work from two to five periods per week. High school classes were given more time in order to insure better physical efficiency in the boys about to enter the armed services.


The classes, as usual, consisted of calisthenics, ap- paratus work, games, and special instruction in the sports in season. Better than 99 per cent of all the boys enrolled in the school received the benefit of this training.


Our interscholastic sports program enjoyed unusual success. A very colorful and versatile football squad went through an undefeated season, being one of three undefeated and untied teams in the entire state. Basket- ball also enjoyed a banner year, and the baseball and track squads were again active with somewhat modified schedules.


And last, but not least, the realization of a suitable athletic field will no doubt be an inspiration to future squads to carry on in the traditional Agawam manner down through the years.
