REPORT OF THE EASTHAM SCHOOL COMMITTEE
To the Citizens of Eastham :
Following the Annual Town Election, the Eastham School Committee reorganized with Mr. James E. Schofield as Chairman, Mrs. Elizabeth Collins as Secretary, and Mr. Alton C. Crosby as the third member and member of Re- gional Planning Committee. Regular meetings have been held throughout the year with the Eastham School Com- mittee also attending the Building Committee meetings and the joint meetings of Union 16.
From January until June, the Eastham School operated with five teachers for six grades. Grade 1 under the super- vision of Mrs. Vesta Gould, Grade 2 with Miss Lorraine Hayes, Grades 3 and 4 in a single room with Mrs. Esther Handel, Grade 5 in a basement classroom with Mrs. Della Macomber, and Grade. 6 under the direction of Principal Otto E. Nickerson.
School opened in September 1955 with 115 children in the first six grades and 89 attending Orleans High School, a total of 204 Eastham youngsters attending public school. Because of the usual drop-outs who migrate South for the winter that number has decreased to 198 but the coming of spring will again bring the total up.
The new addition was opened for use on September 7th and is being used to great advantage. The first and second grades now have adequate space for study, reading groups and play area within the room, plus toilet facilities, sink, drinking fountain and clothes rack. This eliminates contact with the older youngsters except during the lunch hour
For the first time Eastham now has one teacher for each grade. The committee feels that this is a justifiable expenditure as all modern educators frown on the old fashioned two and three grades to a room. This move, in our opinion, is a mark of progress for the Town of East- ham-a plan that the school committee has been working toward for many years.
111
A report by Donald H. Ross and Bernard McKenna for the New York Metropolitan Council, The Study, "Class Size, the Multi-Million Dollar Question", finds that indiv- uals are more apt to get attention in small classes. When the class size is increased, the authors report, desirable elementary classroom practices tend to be dropped. On the other hand, desirable practices are added when class size is reduced. The authors call it "patently indefensible" to set any arbitrary, common class size. Local conditions, pur- poses, quality desired in education, and the abilities of the teachers must be weighed. We also refer to an article by Dr. Howard Lane, Professor of Education at New York University who states "that smaller schools do a better job of educating children than the big consolidated ones. The bigger the school, the more regimentation there is. Regimen- tation is not good for young people." Eastham School today is considered a small school, but with the rising birth rate, the steady in-migration and many other factors pointing towards a rapidly growing population, it will be but a few short years when Eastham will no longer have a small school.
The multi-purpose room is definitely an asset to our unit and once again the privilege of weekly assemblies is part of the regular program. When the new addition is turned over to the School Committee, Rules and Regulations regarding the use of the multi-purpose room will be drawn up and a policy established. In order to get a higher per- centage of usage and efficiency from the multi-purpose room and equipment we suggest a close coordination be- tween the town Recreation Commission and the School De- partment. The completion of this room marks the first time there has been sports equipment and building facilities for indoor activity, and we feel that now there is an oppor- tunity for the Recreation Commission to function during the months when weather forbids the planning of outdoor programs.
112
It is the recommendation of the school committee that the use of the multi-purpose room be allowed free of charge to all civic organizations WITHIN THE TOWN. Charges for additional janitorial services and police protection of course wll be made. OUTSIDE ORGANIZATIONS or IN- DIVIDUALS requesting the use of the facilities will be charged rent. The building is so designed that all class- room areas can be locked and the public need not interfere with school projects in any way while using the multi- purpose room, cloak room and toilet rooms.
Eastham has adopted a new salary scale with a $3400 minimum wage. This is a professional improvement type salary schedule and requires that each teacher receive four credits every three years for professional improvement directly related to the subject matter he or she is teaching. These credits must be earned and acceptable by the Super- intendent of Schools and the School Committee. The adjust- ment of present salaries to this scale increases the 1956 bud- get by less than $700.
The over all school system is short approximately 141,300 teachers. By 1960, 476,000 new classrooms and 1,047,410 new teachers will be needed. Eastham, count your blessings! By careful planning we need not be caught in the educational web. We've been warned, it's up to us to act accordingly.
We recommend that any interested citizen of Eastham who would like to read the new booklet on Teachers Views and Needs should write to the "Fund for Advancement of Education", 665 Madison Avenue, New York 21, N. Y., and ask for a copy of "Teachers for Tomorrow."
Respectfully submitted,
JAMES E. SCHOFIELD, Chairman ELIZABETH F. COLLINS, Secretary ALTON C. CROSBY
