Our graduation of last June was unique in that the pupils provided the entire program. Several townspeople contributed their services in securing material for pupils' essays and in coaching them in their de- livery.
The quality of the program rendered by our pupils was such that I am sure we shall wish to continue this plan in the future.
SCHEDULE FOR FIRST GRADE
During the first three months of the school year pupils of grade one at the South School were required to attend school only during the morning session. This allowed the teacher the entire afternoon to de- vote to grade two, and was beneficial to pupils of grade one as they
54
TOWN OF LYNNFIELD
gradually adapted themselves to their new surrounding and school life by the half day's attendance. It is hoped this plan may be continued with the next year's first grade both at the South and Center Schools, if suitable transportation can be provided to return pupils to their homes at the close of the morning session.
NURSERY SCHOOL
Through aid provided by the Federal Government a Nursery School is soon to be established provided sufficient parents are interested in enrolling their children not now in school.
If a sufficient number of mature children enroll, the work done with them will be of Kindergarten grade otherwise we shall follow methods of the Nursery Schools.
It is anticipated that many parents will avail themselves of the opportunity to enroll their children. Whether or not the school is con- tinued after June 30th will depend upon securing aid from the Federal Government and upon the desire of such educational opportunities in Lynnfield.
HIGH SCHOOL BUILDING
Elsewhere in this town report will be found a report of the School Housing Committee. The report will doubtless be one of disappoint- ment to those who have desired to make it possible to provide further educational opportunities for the pupils of grades seven, through high school in Lynnfield.
It would seem, that rather than feeling disappointed, they might well feel encouraged, realizing that they are but "blazing the trail" or "breaking the ground" as has been found necessary wherever any municipal advance has taken place.
When the need for this educational progress is fully understood by the citizens of the town I believe they will wish to register their vote on the side of progress. This need must be considered in the light of benefits to the town, and to the boys and girls, rather than be figured entirely on increased costs.
If costs alone and not educational progress determined whether or not schools should be maintained we might expect that only the wealthiest communities of this commonwealth would maintain schools.
I anticipate that, in the not too distant future, the School Housing Committee of your town will have so effectively demonstrated the need of extending its educational facilities that the voters will consider they have been privileged to live in a generation when their vote can count for so much toward progress.

REPORT OF SCHOOL HOUSING COMMITTEE
REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON SCHOOL HOUSING
To the Citizens of the Town of Lynnfield:
Your Committee, after several meetings, decided that as a new school building will have to be built in the not far distant future, the present was an opportune time for submitting the question to the voters of the Town.
The project was presented to the Finance Committee and was favor- ably endorsed by them.
At a special Town meeting in October the voters rejected our rec- ommendations, and at a second special meeting in December, sustained the rejections.
Our reasons for making the recommendations follow:
1. Our own two school buildings are taxed to capacity, and addi- tions will be necessary on one or both of our present buildings.
2. Sec. 4 of Chap. 71 of the General Laws of the Commonwealth, provides that every town containing, according the latest census, state or national, five hundred families or householders shall unless speci- fically exempted by the department, and under conditions defined by it, maintain a high school. There seems to be no doubt that the next State Census in 1935 will show the Town of Lynnfield to have that number of families.
3. The cost to maintain such a school as we require would not cost much more than we are paying now for tuition and transportation for our present high school pupils.
4. A site on Summer Street, known as Huckleberry Hill, was agreed upon by the Committee. We would have liked to have obtained a site in the geographical center of the Town but none was available. The site chosen was as near the center as any we could find with adequate acreage, 10 acres being considered a minimum for buildings and play grounds.
5. The N. R. A. plan of loaning the towns money for just such pro- jects as these was considered favorable to the tax-payers by the Com- mittee. Under this plan the Town secures $125,000 from the N. R. A. $37,500 of this is a grant and does not have to be paid back by the Town. The Town signs notes for $87,500 at 4% interest and make payments to the Federal Government yearly, beginning the 4th year after the loan is made. This gives the Town 3 years to pay for the land before re- turning any money on the loan.
Building would be at costs as low as they are likely to be for some time to come, and would be in line with President Roosevelt's Recovery Program in that it would provide immediate employment for many in
66

the construction of the building and laying out the grounds and further create at least 8 new permanent positions and add a few families to our population.
Respectfully submitted, LOUIS B. TUCK,
Secretary for the Committee.
