SCHOOL REPORT.
SCHOOL REPORT.
To the Citizens of Lynnfield :- Your committee submit the following report.
The Centre Grammar School during the year has been under · the charge of Miss Theresa M. McCarthy, who has proved herself a good teacher in every respect. She has used good judgment in directing the studies of her pupils. They have taken an interest in their studies, and we can truly say that teacher and scholars have worked together, and the result has been a good, orderly school. The progress has been marked. There has been a goodly number of scholars enrolled, but the attendance has been somewhat irregular at times. This has affected the average. We feel this should be remedied and hope the parents will do their part and see that the scholars are in school unless it is necessary for them to be away.
The Centre Primary School began the year under the instruc- tion of Miss Clara M. Herrick. She had the goodwill of her scholars and there was much interest shown in the work. The result was good. We feel that in losing Miss Herrick we parted with a faithful and earnest teacher.
During the fall term the school was under the care of Miss Julia A. Griffin, who came to us highly recommended. She has proved herself all that we expected and the scholars have ad- vanced rapidly in their studies.
It was thought best to unite the two Centre schools for the win- ter term. This was done and the school was given into the charge of Miss McCarthy with Miss Griffin as assistant. The work of course was somewhat retarded by this change, but every-

SCHOOL REPORT.
thing has moved along smoothly and good work has been done. The attendance of the primary scholars has been excellent. On account of sickness these schools have been closed the last week in February.
The South Grammar School at the beginning of the year was in the care of Miss Miriam C. Smith. Her work was satisfactory as far as teaching was concerned but the committee felt that the discipline was not what it should be and so thought best to make a change.
The school, during the fall and winter terms, has been taught by Miss Mary Newman. During this term the work has been pushed forward with zeal. From the beginning Miss Newman has had the confidence of the scholars and they have been willing to work and obey. We feel that in Miss Newman we have the right teacher in the right place. In this school the attendance has been good but there has been a great number of cases of tar- diness. We would call the attention of the parents to this fact, hoping it will be remedied as far as possible.
Miss Jennie M. Quinn has taught the South Primary School for the year and has done a grand work. It is a place for which she is admirably suited and her success is well merited. The scholars have taken a great deal of interest in their work and have performed it faithfully. The attendance has been very good indeed.
At the beginning of the winter term your committee thought it advisable to have a music teacher in our schools. Accordingly, we engaged Mr. C. W Green of Stoneham for one term, and the result has been such that we feel the instruction should be con- tinued. The pupils have taken great interest in this study and we can see that great benefit has accrued to them in many ways.
As music is taught in the schools of all the neighboring towns, we feel that ours should also have the benefit of instruction in this branch. Gentlemen, we leave this matter in your hands, calling your attention to the article in the Warrant bearing on this.

REPORT OF TRUSTEES OF THE PUBLIC LIBRARY.
question. We ask you not to vote on it without due consider- ation.
Eight of our scholars have accepted the privilege the town offers, to attend the High Schools of other towns, and are doing well in their studies.
Our school buildings are in a good condition inside, the build- ing at the Centre having had the walls painted, the blackboards repaired and other plastering done, also two windows put in at the back which is a great improvement. The outside of both build- ings (South and Centre Grammar) need painting. Therefore we recommend that at least one of them be attended to.
J. WINSLOW PERKINS, OSCAR I. STOWELL, GEORGE M. ROUNDY, School Committee.
