One of the applicants at Harvard received honors in four subjects-advanced Latin, advanced Greek, Latin composi- tion, and Greek composition.
One of the applicants at Boston University received an honor in Latin.
The whole number of conditions received in the final examinations was 2; the whole number of honors was 5.
The number admitted by certificate was 7; at Smith 6 and at Wellesley 1.
The number of pupils of the High School who took the preliminary examinations was 13; at Harvard 6, at Yale 2, at Boston University 1, at the Institute of Technology 4. Ten passsed without conditions, one was conditioned in Latin grammar, one in Greek, and one in plane geometry and the metric system.
Two of the applicants at Harvard received three honors each- one in Greek, Latin, and German, the other in Greek, Latin, and history. One of the applicants received honors in

two subjects - Greek and history, and one received an honor in history.
The whole number of conditions received in the prelimina- ry examinations was 4; the whole number of honors was 9.
The above record is certainly very gratifying, and is highly creditable to both teachers and pupils.
High School Accommodations.
The subject of High School accommodations is one of paramount importance at the present time, in that it is so closely related to the educational and material interests of the city. Its importance is my apology for again urging the subject upon your attention.
" The total enrolment in the High School the present school year," I quote from my monthly report of February 26," is, in round numbers, 475. Of these, 150 live in wards five and six, and a large percentage of them are at so great a dis- tance from the High School building that it would be imprudent if not impossible for them to walk to school. The distance being practically prohibitive, they must use some means of conveyance or they must forego the educational advantages of the High School. Is it necessary that these pupils, constituting nearly one-third of the present total enrolment of the school, should continue to be subjected to these inconveniences and disabilities? We make generous provision for our grammar schools, supplying one to each of ten villages. Our primary schools are even more numerous and are placed as near as possible to the homes of the children who attend them. In other words it has been the policy of this city for many years to bring its schools within easy reach of those who wish to avail themselves of their advantages. Is there any reason why a similar policy should not be pursued in regard to the High School? Nay, more, has not the time arrived when additional facilities for sec- ondary instruction are needed and demanded ?
I have given much time and thought to this subject; I have tried to look at it on all sides, and to weigh without prejudice all the arguments for and against it ; and I am clearly of the opinion that the best interests of the city would be promoted by the es- tablishment of an English High School in such location as will best accommodate the people of wards five and six, and I respect-

SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT.
fully submit for your consideration some of the facts that have impelled me to this conclusion.
1. The High School is large enough to warrant its division. It has already reached the limit of economic administration, and whatever gain may result from a further concentration of numbers in the future, will be more than compensated by losses in other directions. I should be unwilling to say that a high school of five hundred or even six hundred pupils is unwieldy by reason of its size, but it will be generally admitted, I think, that other things being equal, a greater degree of efficiency will be more likely to exist in a high school of from three hundred to four hun- dred pupils than in one of from four hundred to five hundred. This is especially true in regard to the discipline of the school. The object of discipline in the school as in the home is the development of character. To secure the best results in this direction, the master of the school, being responsible for its disci- pline, should be personally acquainted with every pupil. A school that has outgrown this limit has within it an element of weakness. The academic work of the school is subject to similar conditions, although not to so great an extent.
2. The establishment of an English High School in the southern section of the city would probably increase the aggre- gate number of pupils that would attend the high schools, in that it would attract a considerable number of those who are obliged to forego the privileges of the present school on account of the cost of conveyance.
3. The establishment of the proposed school is in the inter- ests of economy. The annual cost of the two schools will probably exceed that of the present school by from six to seven thousand dollars, This is the additional annual cost to the city. To be set against this is the amount paid by individuals for conveyance. The average cost per pupil for this purpose is about forty dollars ($40) a year. If all the pupils now attending the school from wards five and six were to come by rail, that is, were to avail them- selves of the same facilities that are used by pupils in the northern section of the city, the aggregate cost would amount to six thousand dollars. The average cost per pupil for conveyance to the proposed school will be about twenty dollars a year. It is probable that about one-third of the whole number, or fifty pupils, would go by rail. The aggregate cost for the convey- ance of these pupils would be one thousand dollars. Thus by the establishment of the proposed school the pupils in the southern section of the city are placed upon a footing of substan- tial equality, so far as high school facilities are concerned, with those of the northern section, with a net annual saving of five thousand dollars in the cost to individuals for conveyance. This
30
REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE.
estimate, you will observe, is purely a financial one. It leaves out of the account the inconvenience caused by the early breakfasts and late dinners that are a necessity to those whose homes are remote from the school, the danger to health on account of ex- posure to the rigors and sudden changes of our New England cli- mate. the liability to accidents, and the many hours of valuable time wasted in travel.
I have also left out of the account the cost of the plant. The reasons for this are obvious. In the present High School building there is only one unoccupied class room. This room is capable of accomodating from forty to fifty pupils. The average number of pupils belonging to the school in 1885 was 350. The average number belonging during the first half of the present school year was 440, being an increase of 90 pupils, or 25 per cent., in five years. If this rate of increase continues, additional accommoda- tions will be needed before the expiration of three years. In other words it will soon be necessary to expend $50,000 for a new High School building What matters it whether the building be located here or elsewhere? The cost in either case will be the same.
It has been shown that the establishment of the proposed school will result in a large saving of expense to individuals. But this is not all. It will enhance the value of property already existing. It will quicken enterprise, and stimulate activity in the creation of new property. In the southern section of the city, and within easy reach of the railroads, are large tracts of unoccupied lands which in beauty and healthfulness are unsurpassed by any in the city. The development of these the proposed school will help to hasten. The result of all this to the city will be a large increase in the amount and value of taxable property, and a larger annual income to the city treasury. Indeed, leaving out the educational advantages of the proposed school, and viewing it simply as a business enterprise, I doubt if the city can make a better invest- ment.
It seems to me, therefore, that every consideration of public or private interest demands the establishment of the proposed school.
4. Allow me to add a few words in regard to the character of the proposed school. Its curriculum should be the same as that of our present High School with the omission of Greek. Eng- lish, language, history, mathematics, modern languages, Latin, physics, chemistry, in short, all the branches of study now pur- sued in our High School, except Greek, should be taught in the proposed school, and with equal thoroughness. A school thus organized would meet all the needs of those students who take the three years' course as a preparation for business, of those who
31
SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT.
take the full course of four years, of those who are to enter the Institute of Technology and other schools of science, and of those who are to enter those colleges in which Greek is not an essential requisite for admission. To be more specific, it would prepare its pupils for admission to the scientific course at Amherst, Dart- mouth, Wellesley, and Vassar Colleges, to the literary and scientific course at Smith College, to the philosophical course at Tufts College and Boston University, to the Sheffield Scientific School at Yale College, to the Massachusetts Institute of Tech- nology, and to Harvard College. The Boston English High School and our own High School are now working along the lines I have indicated. The Boston English High School sent students to Harvard College last year, and has others who are in course of preparation. Indeed, if the colleges generally shall follow the lead of Harvard in modifying their requirements for admission the distinction between an English High School and a Classical High School will soon disappear. An English High School doing broad and thorough work will meet all the essential requirements of our colleges.
"Classical Schools," says President Eliot, in his last report, "are giving more attention than formerly to modern languages and experimental science, and schools of a new sort are preparing boys for Harvard College, namely, schools which teach thoroughly Latin, mathematics, modern languages, and experimental science, but do not teach Greek."
A division of the school on other lines is possible. Much can be said in favor of separate schools for boys and girls. Much might be said also in favor of the establishment of a separate classical school, were it not for the trend of thought in the colleges in regard to the requirements for admission, But whatever may be said in behalf of any plan, this fact remains, namely, that any division that may be made, except on sectional lines, will fail to satisfy those citizens who live in the southern section of the city, will fail to meet the present just demands for the extension of our educational privileges, and will fail to anticipate and provide for the needs of the future."
By vote of the Board the foregoing report was referred to a special committee, consisting of His Honor the Mayor, Mr. Hyde, and the High School Committee. At the regular meeting of the Board in March last, this committee reported as follows :
" The special committee, to which was referred the recom- mendation of the Superintendent to establish an English High
32
REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE.
School in the southern section of the city, has given the subject careful consideration and submits the following report :
It is claimed that the High School was established for the benefit of the whole city, that it is maintained by public taxation, and that consequently its advantages should be shared equally by all sections of the city. It is also claimed that the residents of the southern section, by reason of their remoteness from the school, are debarred from the enjoyment of its privileges, or avail themselves of them at considerable expense and inconvenience as compared with the more favored sections.
Furthermore, it is believed that justice requires that meas- ures be taken to remove these inequalities and to secure a more equitable distribution of educational facilities.
Your committee believes that these claims are just and proper, and that the establishment of the proposed school will subserve the interests of the whole city ; yet, in view of the fact that one school building is now in process of erection, that others have been recommended by the School Board, and are under consideration by the City Council, and that a large increase in the city debt is anticipated the present year, it is recommended that definite action in regard to the matter be postponed for the pres- ent.
Your committee, however, is of the opinion that the pro- posed school should be established, within a few years at the farthest, and that the accomplishment of this result should be kept constantly in view."
I again commend the subject to your thoughtful consid- eration.
Supervision of the Schools.
In the discharge of my duties as Superintendent during the past year, besides attending to the special work required of me from time to time by the Board and by standing com- mittees, and the preparation of four monthly reports and my annual report, I have made one examination of every primary and grammar class in reading, and have examined some classes two or three times each. I have also made twelve written examinations of grades three to nine, several oral and written examinations of grade two, and two or more oral and written examinations of grade one.
33
SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT.
I have made between six and seven hundred visits to the schools, have visited thirty-one towns and cities in search of teachers, and for this purpose have travelled a little more than twelve hundred miles.
I have also attended twelve meetings of the Board and forty-two meetings of standing and special committees, and have held thirty-two meetings of teachers.
The rest of my time has been given to the purchase and distribution of supplies, and to personal interviews with teachers and parents, relating chiefly to the details of instruc- tion and discipline.
In closing my official relations with the schools of Newton, I desire to acknowledge my deep obligations to the members of the Board for their unfailing confidence and support, to return to the teachers my sincere thanks for their constant sympathy and co-operation, to bespeak for my successor the kindly aid of both teachers and Committee, and to wish for our schools the largest measure of prosperity and usefulness.
