NORWELL, MASS., Jan. 23, 1901.


I have examined the accounts of the School Committee and find vouchers for all amounts paid.


GEO. CUSHING, Auditor.


REPORT OF SUPERINTENDENT.


To the School Committee of Norwell:


I have the honor to submit to you and to the citizens of this town the annual report of the superintendent of schools.


GENERAL CONDITIONS.


The schools are in good working order and their condi- tion indicates progress in the future.


In some instances the teachers have found it impossible to bring the work up to grade, but aside from these cases, the results during the past term have been satisfactory.


THE NECESSITY OF GRAMMAR SCHOOLS.


The high school law enacted in 1898, demands that the high schools prepare pupils for the state normal schools. high scientific institutions and colleges as well as for pur- poses of general culture.


Since we profess to maintain a high school, we are com- pelled by law to meet certain requirements, and the town must recognize this fact in its decisions upon school mat- ters.


A well graded system in the elementary schools is neces- sary, if the high school is to be maintained.


21


The elementary schools, as they were graded previous to the past year so inadequately prepared their pupils that only the exceptionally bright ones could meet the require- ments demanded of the high school, by the state law.


TEXT BOOKS.


The text books in language and arithmetic were changed previous to the opening of the schools in September. Al- though the new books have been in use but a short time good results are manifest.


Other changes in and additions to the equipment of the schools should be made as soon as the financial condition of the town will permit.


The teachers find it very difficult to introduce the best methods into some lines of their work on account of insuffi- cient equipment.


MODERN METHODS.


The entire conception of education has undergone a great change during the last few years.


Much that formerly was considered indispensible has been eliminated as non-essential.


Arithmetic affords a good illustration of this.


Until within a few years the entire text book was taught from cover to cover, now much that is impractical is being omitted.


The custom of introducing work in number, consisting of all the combinations from one to ten together with drill in fractional forms and denominate numbers, is also being discontinued by many towns ranking high in educational interests, in the belief that this work has been prematurely introduced.


22


The method of teaching geography, has received much attention of late. As formerly taught it was but a memory exercise and all that was most valuable to the pupils was lost.


Says a prominent superintendent: "The spirit of inquiry and investigation, the love for books of travel and for gen- eral information, and a habit of critical observation are among the most valuable possessions which proper teach- ing of geography should give to the pupils in our schools."


IN GENERAL.


The schools are of highest importance and if they are to be conducted successfully in this town or any other they must have the unprejudiced support of every good citizen. Respectfully submitted,


C. A. RECORD.


HIGH SCHOOL REPORT.


To the Superintendent of Schools of Norwell:


Beginning my work in the high school near the close of the last school year, I have had time to see but few changes.


It is gratifying to report that of the last graduating class of ten at least four are pursuing their studies further, one each at the Hyannis Normal School, Thayer Academy, Uni- versity of Maine, and Tufts College. In order however to keep up to the increasingly high standard set by college requirements and demanded as well by the necessity of a liberal training for those who are not to attend college it seems to me advisable that a ninth grammar grade be es- tablished lengthening the school life of the pupil by a year. This has been done in most of the city schools and brings pupils to the high school much better prepared to do the work required of them.


Through the generosity of Mr. Joseph C. Otis the equip- ment of the high school has been increased by a large and valuable collection of Indian relics. Additions have also been made to our library so that we now have an excellent collection of standard English literature. Work in this de- partment loses much of its value when made compulsory. Parents can however do much to lay the foundations of a love of the best literature by encouraging their children to take advantage of the opportunities for good reading that we can now offer them.


24


The present accomodations of the high school seem to me very unsatisfactory. The building is heated with such dif- ficulty that on cold days it becomes nearly and at times quite impossible to maintain a suitable temperature.


Various inconveniences arise from the fact that the main room has to serve the purposes both of town hall and of school room. The desks and chairs can not be fastened to the floor so long as they must be ready for quick removal and are therefore left to be moved hither and thither by restless pupils to the detriment of the appearance of the room and the weary ears of its occupants. Further, some time is lost each year by the necessity of adjourning school while the regular town meeting is in session.


The acoustic properties of the room are very poor. A disagreeable echo renders conversation difficult and wearing, and combined with the size of the room makes satisfactory blackboard work almost impossible.


It is to be hoped that in the near future the school may be moved to the No. 2 school house which is empty and would furnish much more satisfactory accommodations, and now that pupils are transported, would be as easily acces- sible as our present location.


In concluding I wish to thank you and the members of the school committee for your constant interest and intel- ligent cooperation in carrying forward the work of the high school.


Respectfully submitted, ALLISON G. CATHERON.
