School attendance problems seem to become increasingly complex. As in the past, it is usually the unsupervised home from which most attendance difficulties arise. These continue to be the homes in which it is most difficult to put across, effectively, the importance of regular school attendance while a pupil's adjustment difficulties are still in the incipient stages. We note recently an increasing number of parents who condone poor standards of attendance for their children in the early grades. Once a pattern of indifference to school attendance becomes established in a pupil's behavior, only constant and continuous surveillance by school personnel can prevent truancy.
In one instance, this year, as a last resort, it became necessary to take court action in order to have a pupil who stubbornly refused to attend school, receive clinical help. This was done only because our local courts now regard such children as being "sick" and in need of psychiatric attention which these courts are now able to furnish.

ARLINGTON TOWN REPORT
SPECIAL EDUCATION
A trainable class for retarded pupils was organized this year in accordance with recent legislation established by the Massachusetts General Court. The class meets daily for two hours at the Junior High Industrial Arts Building. Pupils are all transported to and from their classes by the school bus. This year's class includes eight pupils, three of whom live in neighboring communities and the Town there- fore receives a total of $1200 in tuition costs from those communities.
The special class for elementary pupils now has an enrollment of eleven and their instruction is all individual. Whenever it is felt that one of these pupils can benefit from some of the work done in a regular classroom, he is so assigned for a part of each day for that type of work.
During this school year greater emphasis is being placed on the 3 Rs with pupils in the Junior High Industrial Arts. All the first year pupils have been given comprehensive tests to determine the extent of their learning ability and every effort is being made to have them work up to their ability in academic subjects.
In the High School Industrial Arts Classes pupils are assigned to regular high school classes in those subjects in which they indicate any capability. In those academic subjects in which they lack ability to keep up with other high school pupils, they have special instruction with a special class teacher. The organization of special classes throughout the Arlington school system incorporates most of the modern techniques recommended for use with retarded children and there is every evidence from follow-up studies that these pupils benefit considerably from this type of training.
ART DEPARTMENT
An outstanding project during this year was the cooperation of the Art Department with a town committee headed by Mrs. Walter McCulloch in their effort to bring to the people of Arlington a better understanding of the Bill of Rights. Nine three-dimensional illus- trations were made by the 6th grade children, three by the junior high schools and twelve decorative panels by the pupils in our high school. These were exhibited in frames furnished by the above com- mittee in several store windows in the business section of this Town. Favorable comments on the work and effort were received by the Art Director, and the newspaper reports were most gratifying, especially those published in the Christian Science Monitor, the Boston Herald and the Boston Globe.
SCHOOL CAFETERIAS
In the 1954 Report on School Cafeterias attention was called to a Special School Milk Program authorized by the Agricultural Act of 1954 which provided $50,000,000. annually beginning September 1, 1954 and ending June 30, 1956. The purpose of the appropriation was to increase the consumption of fluid milk by children in non-profit schools
211
REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS
of high school grade and under. Arlington was one of several Massa- chusetts communities selected by the U. S. Department of Agriculture in May, 1955 for a special study about various phases of the Special Milk Program. Our function in this experiment was to sell milk at different prices to see if this would affect consumption. In March, with milk at four cents per half pint, we sold 18,153 cartons. In May, at two cents, the sales went to 31,649 cartons. When school opened in September we were able to set the price of milk at three cents per half pint for each carton sold other than with the main lunch. For this we received the maxinium subsidy of four cents. The subsidy on our type A lunch remained at nine cents, seven cents for the meal, two cents for the milk Our second source of income also remained constant-the appropriation from the Town-which, with our receipts from pupils, allows us to operate on a non-profit basis.
HOME ECONOMICS
The goal of the Home Economics Program in the junior and senior high schools is to provide our boys and girls with experience that will help them contribute to better home and family living. The term Home Economics is synonymous with Homemaking, and while courses in this field were first organized for girls, it has become widely accepted that homemaking is not only woman's work, but that the establish- ment and maintenance of a good home is a cooperative relationship and that all need to work together for the best welfare of the whole group. During the present school year there has been organized for the first time in one of the junior high schools an all boy class in food planning, preparation and serving.
The annual Fashion Shows in junior and senior high schools were planned and presented in the assembly halls by the students from the clothing classes who modeled clothes that they had made. Each class had its own narrator who introduced the models with the poise of a professional. The Fashion Shows were well attended by faculty and parents and the girls of the Food classes entertained the guests at a Tea in the Home Economics Dining Room. In October, at the Senior High School, a formal Tea was served by the Foods classes on the occasion of the Student Council presenting our exchange student from Istanbul to the faculty and guests. This was the first time that a class Tea had been formally served and it offered a new and valuable experience to the many students who participated.
HEALTH AND PHYSICAL EDUCATION
School Health Education is a vital part of the whole educational process by which each child in school is guided and helped in his efforts to develop physically and mentally to his fullest possible extent. The achievement for each child in his own optimum health depends upon some sort of correlation between school health education, parent education and general community-wide health education. In seeking solutions to health problems, particularly those concerned with pupils in school, it is necessary to have close teamwork. On this team will be teachers, parents, doctors, nurses, dentists and other organizations whose activities relate to the welfare of the children.
Today a total functioning school health program consists of three main areas:
212
ARLINGTON TOWN REPORT
1. Health Service:
That part of the health program which includes all of the measures which might be used in evaluating the health status of the child; i.e., screening and examinations, daily inspections, pupil observations, careful follow-up, nurse-teacher-parent con- ferences, safety, first-aid, cumulative health records, etc.
2. Health Instruction:
That part of the total health program which is concerned with the organization of learning experiences directed toward the development of favorable health knowledge, habits and attitudes.
3. School Environment:
That part of the health program dealing with the environment which surrounds children during school hours, i.e., cleanliness, safety of the building and grounds, lighting, ventilation, recre- ation, sanitation, facilities for eating lunch, etc.
The physical examination, hearing tests and vision tests are carried out as prescribed by our State Laws. This year the Health Depart- ment made arrangements and followed through a program of chest X-rays for all teachers, secretaries, cafeteria workers, custodians and maintenance personnel in the school system. The polio Salk Vaccine shots were administered to the pupils in the first four grades
In further endeavoring to attain the objectives of health and specifically for the purpose of tuberculosis control, we are using the Patch Tubercular Skin Test on the pupils in grades nine and twelve this year. If any pupil's reaction to the test is positive, the child then will be given a chest X-ray.
Everything possible to maintain the mental and physical health standards of our pupils is given proper consideration and attention.
ADULT EDUCATION
Approximately 1200 students were enrolled in 56 Adult Education classes in Sewing, Tailoring, Draperies, Millinery, Slip Covers, Fabric Painting, Chair Caning, Foods, Furniture Refinishing, Leathercraft, Metalcraft, Pottery, Reed Craft, Braided Rugs, Hooked Rugs, Decorated Ware, Upholstery, Automotive Mechanics, Drafting, Electronics, Radio and Television, Machine Shop Practice, Typing, Parliamentary Law, Americanization and courses in English and Citizenship. Again this year is was impossible to accommodate all those wishing to enroll. However, waiting lists were established and efforts were made to provide opportunity for as many as possible from these lists. The 1954-1955 Adult Education school year culminated on March 30 with the traditional grand Exhibition and Fashion Show. A popular feature of the Exhibition was the Fashion Show put on by nearly 300 of the Evening School students from the Sewing and Tailoring classes. Officials of the Massachusetts Department of Education who visited the Exhibition declared that the displays and the Fashion Show placed the Arlington department in the forefront in Adult Education through- out the State. They also declared that Arlington holds the record for attendance at this type of Exhibition.
CONCLUSION
In conclusion, may I express to the School Committee, to all fellow- workers in the Department and to other officials, my appreciation for your kind help and support.
Respectfully submitted, (Signed) CLIFFORD R. HALL Superintendent of Schools

Report of the Planning Board
Mr. Edward C. Monahan Town Manager Arlington, Massachusetts
January 18, 1956
Dear Sir:
In accordance with Section 49 of the General Laws, Chapter 40, the Planning Board submits its report for the year ending December 31, 1955.
The Board expresses thanks to Mrs. Carol J. Thomas, who resigned her appointment, for her faithful services as a member of the Board. The Board expresses thanks to Mr. William R. Dunn, who retired, for his faithful services to the Board.
The Town Manager has filled the Board vacancies with the appointment of Mr. John H. O'Brien, whose term will expire August 17, 1957, and Mrs. Elinor I. Jennings, whose term will expire August 17, 1958.
Mr. John B. Byrne, Jr., whose term expired, was reappointed by the Town Manager for a term to expire August 17, 1958.
In the course of the past year the Board held six meetings and four hearings. During the year Public hearings were held on four Amendments to the Zoning By-Laws of which three were upheld by a unanimous vote of the Town Meeting.
The Planning Board, as members of the Joint Planning Com- mittee, attended ten meetings with this Committee which included the Board of Selectmen, Town Manager, Finance Committee, Town Engineer, Chief of Police, and various other Department Heads.
The Board has been considering the revising and modernizing of our Zoning By-Laws, but definite action has been deferred until a complete analysis of the Joint Planning Committee Report is received.
It is expected that a complete report of the Joint Planning Com- mittee regarding the Arlington Center business area will be published and made available for the annual Town Meeting in March of 1956.
The Planning Board in cooperation with members of the Joint Planning Committee intends to continue the studies on business zoning, parking, land use, and related studies in the Arlington Heights and East Arlington business districts.
It is anticipated in the near future that provisions will be made for permanent quarters for records, meetings, and pertinent infor- mation.
The Board remains a member of the State Federation of Planning Boards.
The Board wishes to express its appreciation and sincere thanks to the Town Manager and to all the Boards and Department Heads, who have rendered assistance and cooperation to it during the year.
