No extraordinary changes have occurred during the year. Economic conditions have required conservative ad- ministration, devoid of expansion or new developments, and have also made it necessary to make other curtail- ments than those listed in reports of the past two years.
School membership is steadily increasing, most notice- ably in the senior and lately in the junior high schools. The following table shows this growth. Figures are taken (except the last line) from Annual State Reports.

Accommodations have been ample for all pupils, includ- ing those enrolled this Fall, although it was necessary to change the dividing line between the Junior High School Center and Junior High School East to relieve the former school. There seems to be no probability of badly crowded schools in the fall of 1935, except possibly in some depart- ments of the Senior High School.
SCHOOL WORK
The work of the schools during the year has, on the whole, been very satisfactory. Standards of scholarship, as shown by tests, grade attainments, preparation for junior and senior high schools and by records of graduates in higher institutions, have continued to be creditable.
Excellent results have been achieved both in the funda- mental subjects and in the fields of music, art, manual and domestic studies. Arlington students have won distinction on numerous occasions in neighborhood and even wider competition. Extensive community service has also been rendered by our organized groups.

ARLINGTON TOWN REPORT
The general health program for the year has been wholesome and worth while. Aside from a few epidemics of children's diseases of less than normal extent, there has been very little illness among the pupils. Attendance for the calendar year has averaged over ninety-four per cent. School physicians, nurses, physical training teach- ers and regular classroom teachers have correlated their work closely to secure sound knowledge of hygiene, good health habits, remedy of defects and body building.
A minor, yet vital part, of the health program is par- ticipation by the maximum number of boys and girls in suitable games, sports and athletics. Competitive games arouse keener interest in physical activities. The sched- ules of such events are comprehensive, including sports for all seasons and for many different groups. Inter-class, inter-school and outside contests are carried on. In them, Arlington teams have been a credit to the schools and the Town.
Athletics, dramatics, musical entertainments, art ex- hibits and a variety of other so-called extra curricular activities have their importance in personal development, and in adding interest and vitality to school life. In not a few instances such activities are of greater value to in- dividuals than any other one thing the school provides. Yet the time and effort devoted to this group of activities is predominantly outside of regular school hours. With rare exceptions the extra time spent by teachers in this way is without financial compensation.
BUILDINGS AND MAINTENANCE
It has been a consistent policy of the Town, even during the current depression, to keep its buildings in good re- pair. We have been greatly aided during the past two years by welfare workers and Federal aided projects. Local administrators have been very helpful and co-opera- tive in this respect, resulting in the completion of numer-
433
SCHOOL DEPARTMENT
ous important improvements, such as extensive painting jobs, reseating Spy Pond Field grandstand, electrical work and a number of carpentry and masonry jobs.
Aside from general upkeep and repairs, several special matters should be mentioned. One is the need of addi- tional roofing repairs and waterproofing on several build- ings. This is important for protection of the buildings and to prevent damage to interior finish. Repairs of this sort should be done as rapidly as possible.
Another important matter is the installation of sprink- ler systems in those inflammable buildings not already so equipped. The Senior High, Junior High Center, Crosby, Cutter and Russell schools are now equipped. Had not the depression intervened, the remaining buildings would doubtless have been finished. As a safeguard and insur- ance factor the work should be completed as soon as finan- cial conditions permit. - Buildings still in need of sprinkler systems are the Old Parmenter and Locke schools, and the older parts of the Junior High West and Peirce schools.
A third and even more important need is the installa- tion of fireproof stairways or adequate fire escapes at the Russell School. This is a three-story building, wooden in- terior construction, and with open wooden staircases that are the only means of exit. The arrangement is one that would be very dangerous in case of even a slight fire.
Schoolhouses in other towns that have burned with heavy loss of life have in almost all cases been of this type. There are at present over four hundred chil- dren attending the Russell School, mostly under twelve years of age. Fire drills held under most favorable con- ditions require two minutes and a half or more to empty the building.
The risk can be entirely removed in a practical manner and the change should be made during the summer of 1935.

FINANCIAL
It will be of interest and value to record year by year the adjustments made on account of the financial depres- sion through which we have been passing.
All of the measures of economy previously listed-in- creasing and consolidating classes, discontinuing certain positions, curtailment of expenditures in various lines- have been continued during the year and, in some cases, still further extended.
In addition, the evening school was discontinued after the 1933-1934 session. This involved an expenditure of $3,000 to $4,000 and provided practical educational oppor- tunities for from 400 to 600 students.
The position of supervisor of health instruction has been discontinued; service in attendance supervision cur- tailed; employment of assistant athletic coaches largely eliminated; the employment of a special physician for athletic teams discontinued ; capital outlay cut out, except for emergencies; half of the regular step increases for 1934-1935 withheld.
The cost of fuel, light and power, and janitors' supplies for 1934 was $29,535, contrasted with similar expenditure in 1931 of $35,995, in spite of the fact that neither the new High School nor the Brackett School was built at that time.
The trend in school expenses will best be shown in tabular form. The following statement gives appropria- tions and expenditures for the fiscal years 1931 and 1934 and their relation to the size of the system and to the local tax rate.

ARLINGTON TOWN REPORT
The total annual cost of education to any community includes not only net current expenses raised by taxation, but also any additional annual amount raised for buildings and equipment and for payments of principal and interest on school bonds. The town financial records show that the total amount of these items for 1931 was $245,142.50 and for 1934, $139,120, a reduction of $106,022.50. This is equivalent to a reduction in the tax rate for this purpose of $3.87 in 1931 to $2.28 in 1934.
If these figures are combined with those given in the above table, the total cost of education raised from local taxation in 1931 was at the rate of $14.27 per thousand dollars, and in 1934, $12.13, a favorable difference of $2.14.
Within this interval of three years, which covers the period of financial depression to date, the standard school program has been carried on as usual except for the fol- lowing major modifications :
Special activities discontinued,
Amount of books and supplies reduced,
Teaching positions eliminated and teaching load in- creased.
These things directly affect the educational opportuni- ties and service available for children, and also the effi- ciency and standards of the schools. The difficulties and curtailments incurred have been met thus far without excessive harm, but every reasonable effort should be made to avoid further restrictions except such as may be effected in regular administrative processes.
The critical factor to consider at present is the teacher load. Theoretically, it might seem feasible to increase substantially the average number of pupils per teacher. Practically, it is a question of organization and geography. Schools in East Arlington and Arlington Heights cannot greatly aid each other. The elementary junior high and
437
SCHOOL DEPARTMENT
senior high groups cannot relieve one another. A small senior high school class in advanced Latin, science or mathematics cannot be combined with another small class in a different subject or grade. Even dropping certain subjects where classes are necessarily well below the aver- age would not go far, for other classes and activities would have to be provided for them with teachers in charge. In many cases this course of action would un- fortunately result in poorer adjustment of educational opportunities to the real needs of pupils.
Nevertheless, the possibilities of economy in this direc- tion have not been overlooked as the following statement will show:

The increase in pupils per regular teacher from Novem- ber, 1931, to November, 1934, in the Senior High School was 4.8; in the three junior high schools, 3.8; in the ele- mentary schools from no increase to 7.4 (Russell School) and an average of 2.6.
It has been and will be the steadfast endeavor of all who are occupied with the conduct of our schools to main-
438
ARLINGTON TOWN REPORT
tain and improve their high standards and generous edu- cational opportunities. The need for superior education is greater and not less in the midst of present-day condi- tions. The prestige that Arlington has enjoyed should not be lost nor diminished if it can possibly be avoided. It has been preserved thus far and, as this report has pointed out, at a lessening cost to the taxpayers. Further retrenchment would, however, greatly endanger the wel- fare of the schools, and might easily result in losses and disadvantages outweighing pecuniary savings effected.
The usual statistical information is given on the fol- lowing pages.
