Two problems facing us are a possible kindergarten (for which I have campaigned before), and regionalizing with Orleans and Wellfleet. I, personally, think that both these steps will be taken eventually-but, why not now? Forty years ago the principal of Orleans High School sug- gested that Harwich, Chatham, and Orleans have a union high school located in East Harwich. Think what colossal opportunities have been denied our children !
REPORT OF ELEMENTARY SUPERVISOR
I am happy to submit my third annual report as Elementary Supervisor in the Schools of Union No. 16 and to show how I am carrying out the work of this position.
A careful testing program is being continued, records kept, and the total elementary school program studied with aim to better progress. Mental ability testing has been done with group tests at first, third, and sixth grade levels and individual testing wherever group results or class perform- ance indicated a need. Achievement tests were given to all children in May. Eastham School compares very favorably in most subjects with the national norms on these tests.
A very thorough study of the spelling results on tests and actual performance in spelling was made this year and has resulted in experimental work in spelling carried on at primary grade levels. At the close of the school year, I expect to make another survey and see whether the school has made the expected improvement in this subject.
In an attempt to improve the teaching of social studies in the school, five of the teachers completed work in a course in teaching social studies skills which I presented last spring under State University Extension. One of the
127
teachers is at present enrolled in an arithmetic course and some of them plan to study art projects for classroom use under Mr. Bolton, our new art instructor.
The new Eastham report card drawn up by a commit- tee of teachers and parents last year has been favorably received and seems to be giving the parents the type of information they wish. We have started a new type of permanent record card and have these at present in the first, second, fourth, and fifth grades. By the end of the year all children's records will be on these cards. The aim is to have duplicate records in the main office and to have a less bulky and more compact type of card.
Excellent use is being made of the fine auditorium at the Eastham School. In addition to gym and music activi- ties excellent assemblies have been held and movies are being used as educational aids and for entertainment. The movies are on such subjects as travel, safety, science, com- munication, health and literature.
I was fortunate this year to be able to speak on our school program at the yearly convention of the National Council for the Social Studies at Cleveland, Ohio, in November. I also represented our school union as a speaker at the regional conference of the National Education Association at Boston and at the annual meeting of Massa- chusetts Elementary Principals and Supervisors Association in Amherst.
I wish to thank the Eastham School Committee for their interest in these contacts with outside educational facilities and state that I am proud to work for a system that is interested in such broad contacts. I should like to express appreciation for the cooperation, friendliness, and courtesy, of the superintendent, school principal, teachers, and parents of Eastham.
Respectfully submitted,
HARRIET CHACE Elementary Supervisor.

REPORT OF THE ART SUPERVISOR
Edward E. Bolton
I hereby submit my first annual report as Supervisor of Art in the schools of Union No. 16.
Since September 1956 the art department has been undergoing the process of curriculum revision and re- organization. The objective of this activity is to make the art program one of the most outstanding programs in this section of the country. The emphasis of this program is pointed to the development of an appreciation of all arts and crafts for all of the children in the schools of Union No. 16. For example the grades from the first through the sixth will be introduced to a program in which directed and non-directed activities are present. The art teacher will teach a lesson once every week with varied subject matter and will introduce new materials in order to give the pupil a wide field of experience. The mediums for ex- pression should include clay modeling, soap carving, the use of crayon, chalk, construction paper, water-color, finger paint, and poster paint. This instruction will be directed toward a correlation of the classroom work or to point up specific holidays. There will also be an attempt to train the pupil's eye to see the relationhips of the objects in the world around him. Then, between the scheduled weekly art period, the classroom teacher carries on art activities in which the child is urged to express his ideas of stories, songs, dances or his every day activity. By this programing, the art department hopes to foster the inventiveness and imagination required for creativity at this level and in the student's every activity for years to come.
The foundation of this program will be in the hands of Mr. Vernon Smith. It is both as an artist and an educator
129
that Mr. Smith guides the children of the elementary schools in their creative activity. We are very fortunate to have Mr. Smith lend us his talents and many years of ex- perience as a professional artist.
Then, on an upper level, the program will be carried on in a more intensified manner. At this level, individual attention for each class member will be the method used to help the students grow at his own rate of speed. Group assignments or projects in which all students will share or participate will be the center of activity with each and every student reaching out from this point toward a spe- cific goal to satisfy his particular need. The students, in most instances, will select their own medium and subject matter relative to a general heading under a controlled experience. The materials for experimentation in this situ- ation should be inks, various lead and charcoal pencils, poster and oil paint, watercolor, chalk, clay for ceramic work, wood and linoleum, soap, leather, wire and various construction papers.
Before the above program is fully in force at this level, a grounding in the various basic techniques are now being put forth. It is of great importance that such a program will be a continual building process. Consequently, it will give the student freedom to advance as far as his interest and ability will allow.
In addition, the foregoing program will be augmented by pamphlets and bulletins. This material will be passed on to the teachers as an aid to teaching by suggesting cor- relations of activities, projects, and craft work to help stimulate the pupils.
In closing, I should like to express my appreciation to those responsible for giving me the opportunity to work and live with the people on Cape Cod.

REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC
Samuel Griffths
It is a great pleasure to report favorable progress in our Elementary Instrumental Music program during the past year. We are well on the way-but only on the way -toward outstanding achievement in this field in New England.
Over two hundred students are now taking active part in this program from grades three through six in our School Union. Many other pupils are benefiting from the regular classroom work in rhythm training and music appreciation.
Obvious progress was demonstrated last Spring, when these children presented a public program in Memorial Auditorium in Chatham, upon which occasion an orchestral group of 85 beginners played with reasonable balance and accuracy. Since then, each school has formed its own orchestral class, and all of these groups have performed several times for assembly and other school occasions. We shall soon be providing a steady flow of talent to our junior high and high school music groups.
When schools opened last Fall, all children in grades three through six were tested for talent. These tests re- vealed a large potential, and gifted students are being en- couraged to commence studies as fast as they can be assimi- lated into the program.
In addition to the splendid co-operation received from our administration and staff, teachers, and colleagues, I want to express sincere gratitude to the parents and friends of these young students, for interest shown in our work, and to the children themselves, who are as fine a group as I have ever had the pleasure of teaching.

REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF VOCAL MUSIC Webster Whitney Tileston
A decade of Vocal Music Supervision in our Union of Towns! Ten years in which to see the fruits of the music seeds planted then, nurtured and developed to the point of personal, pleasurable participation through the years to the culmination of school music activities in their respective high schools.
In many, many cases our young people have continued in music fields and I watch with inner pride as I follow results. I am glad too, that Harwich has seen the wisdom of adding an Assistant in the Vocal Music Department to assure the ever increasing enrollment of continued active participation and music learning.
To me, music is the highest of the arts; and art, along with religion, is the way in which people express the best that is in them. Expressing the best that is in us brings a spiritual reward more potent and more permanent than any worldly goods.
In public school music, necessarily, and rightly, I have placed the principal stress on singing. The voice is the natural instrument of everyone, and almost everyone sings from time to time all through life, from the comfortable cooing of the baby to the cracked quaver of the octoge- narian. Human beings naturally love to sing.
Like art, music has been an emotional outlet, a whole- some leisure-time activity, and an aspect of cultural growth from the most primitive of societies to the most civilized.
One of my most legitimate basic aims in the Teaching of Music in your Town is to give your children a real love of singing (and, for some, playing) and enjoying fine music. The appreciation of music, cultural familiarity with it, the social satisfaction of feeling oneself a participant in group singing or playing, and the use of music as a leisure- time pursuit, all necessarily follow from a genuine love of
132
good music. This can be achieved by giving children musi- cal experience from kindergarten on, that is basically satisfying to them and that familiarizes them as partici- pants with the best music available.
We climax this with three grand Festivals each year : our Union Festival, (with thanks to the Harwich P.T.A. this year as hosts) ; our Cape and Islands Massed Music Festival (with thanks to the Chatham P.T.A. this year as hosts) ; and the All New England Music Festival of Chorus, Band and Orchestra, held this year at Claremont, N. H., to which we sent students from all Towns of our Union.
Rhythm is the essence of Music. I stress it. Therefore our children are given a great deal of experience with rhythmic expression. They express rhythm and meter of music with bodily movements, they create rhythmic games; they relax to music, run to music, dance to music. We try to help them get the feel of the rhythm of music until it becomes a part of them. Then we're ready for singing and develop it through the years as previously discussed.
Music exists for its joy-giving quality and it matters little that many of us never reach proficiency. A momentary push over a rough spot to a goal just ahead may sometimes be not only harmless but helpful. We can tell whether or not this is the case only if we know the child and closely watch his reaction. With many children, if they are to continue voluntarily the musical journey through life, it must be a journey that is in itself satisfying to them. The obstacles must not be so great as to cause discouragement, must not call for effort greater than the satisfaction that results from overcoming them.
In conclusion, may I repeat again, music is the highest of the arts, and moreover, is a social art. Writers and Painters crcate in solitude; they communicate by remote control, as it were. The Musician sings, plays or conducts for an immediate audience, and this immediacy is a public act of love, which can transport both the performer and his audience into a wondrous unity of soul.
133
I realize that musical talent is largely an accident of heredity and temperament and that no young person can be pushed, cajoled, threatened or bribed into a genuine affection for any art.
In the case of my three sons, as with your boys and girls, I do not insist on the various fields of music but suggest and hope ( as we all must with all our hearts) that his or her gifts include a good ear, a supple finger and a singing spirit. I will continue to do my utmost within our schools and our communities to see that all this is developed, cultivated and fostered to the fullest degree.
REPORT OF THE SCHOOL NURSE Mrs. May Dunphy, R.N.
Taking over the duties of School Nurse in April was indeed a pleasure. The School Clinic was efficiently organ- ized by Mrs. Jean Putnam, R.N., who had resigned in March.
The staff is most helpful and cooperative, and I feel grateful for the kindness shown to me during my duties at the school.
Dr. Whitright, the School Doctor, has completed all physical examinations for this year, and the necessary referrals were made.
Three Salk Vaccine Clinics were held-two at the School and one at the Town Hall during the summer vacation.
Dr. Dickson, the School Dentist, will examine the chil- dren's teeth in December, and will continue the Dental Clinic in January, 1957. During December, the children are to receive the Sodium Fluorine treatment given by the Dental Hygienist, Mrs. Dalzell.
Audiometer tests are completed. Vision tests will be done in December.
134
REPORT OF THE PHYSICAL EDUCATION PROGRAM
Ethel T. Reed
Our program of Physical Education has been greatly facilitated and improved by the use of the new gymnasium- auditorium and the purchase of new equipment.
Mats for tumbling and stunts have been hung on the walls; volleyball standards, belonging to the Recreation Commission, have been installed and can be used for bad- minton, tennis, deck tennis, and volley-ring as well as vol- leyball.
The Kraus test for Physical Fitness, which consists of exercises given for testing the strength of abdominal, psoas, upper and lower back and hamstring muscles were given during the year. It was the first time I had given these tests and the children showed very little deficiency in mus- cular strength. According to the results of a survey by Dr. Hans Kraus, associate professor at the Bellevue Medi- cal Center and Mrs. Bonnie Hirschland, Research Assistant at N.Y.U. Medical College, 56% of a tested school popula- tion in suburban and industrial areas was found to be muscularly deficient, whereas in Italy and Austria the deficient rate was roughly 8%. The newly purchased Jungle- gym will help greatly in strengthening arm, back and ab- dominal muscles which will tend toward improving the posture of our children.
Our indoor program consisted of rhythms using the new small rubber balls, singing games, different tyes of dancing, tumbling and stunts, action stories, games and re- lays. The skills used in basketball, softball, soccer, volley- ball and volley-ring were taught and then a progression of games for each sport.
135
We have been most fortunate this fall in having such fine weather and the opportunity to use the large athletic field. The backstop for baseball is up and the diamond marked off, out-of-door basketball backboards and baskets are in use and much activity is seen on the out-of-door volleyball court. The soccer field has been staked out, but, will not be lined until Spring.
The field is in wonderful condition, due to the excel- lent care of our most efficient custodian, and the co- operation of the school children in keeping off of it last Fall and Spring.
The fifth and sixth grade girls had a Five-Soccer Play Day with the Orleans fifth and sixth grade girls as guests. A few get acquainted games were played and then the girls were placed on four teams who played together on a team, not against each other as a school. Refreshments were served and a sociable good time was enjoyed. More of these play days are planned and will serve to acquaint the chil- dren with each other before they enter high school.
The Town of Eastham is most fortunate in having a School Committee so interested in the education of its chil- dren. It has been a privilege to teach under such favorable conditions.
