SCHOOL BUILDINGS
Consolidation of the school building plant has worked out well, making possible for the greater part of the pupils the educational advantages of an up-to-date sanitary build- ing in which modern facilities are offered.
It would be well if improvements could be made at the Center Primary and Ridge Hill schools, making these
117
TOWN OF NORWELL
buildings more modern. Chief among the needs is improv- ed lighting facilities. Cross lighting at both school makes it difficult for pupils to see th eblackboards. On dark days, regular school work is sometimes not possible.
Improvement of the school grounds at both buildings would be desirable. There is no need to mention the need for improvements of the grounds at the high school be- cause that is already assured. The grounds at the Center Primary school are particularly bad in wet weather; per- haps some sort of draining would remedy that situation.
There is no congestion of pupils at any of the buildings except in one of the grade rooms at the high school build- ing. Enrollment figures printed elsewhere in this report show the number of pupils in each room at each building.
HIGH SCHOOL
Although numerous changes have taken place in the teaching staff of the high school, the work of the school has been carried on, on a high plane of excellence. Under the leadership of the new principal, Mr Phillips, the school has been assured efficient management. The usual atten- tion has been given to athletics and the other so-called extra-curricular activities with no detriment to the regu- lar studies. It has been the policy of the new principal to stress more than ever the regular work of the school. I feel that we have an efficient high school faculty, exhibit- ing unusual interest in the welfare of the school.
As usual, the lunch room has functioned efficiently. Athletics have been carried on with great success. The discernment of the principal has brought about several phys- ical changes to the advantage of the smooth conduct of the school. The seating equipment of the high school is not suitable. New seats should be purchased to replace the chairs now in use.

SEVENTY-SIXTH ANNUAL REPORT
THE TEACHING STAFF
The following changes have taken place in the teaching staff during the past year. Lester E. Williams resigned to re-enter the Newton school system. His place was fill- ed by the election of Edwin Phillips of Pepperell, a grad- uate of Stetson University in Florida, who has done gradu- ate work at Harvard and Massachusetts Institute of Tech- nology. Mr. Phillips has had five years' experience in teaching and administrative work in Education. At the close of the year, the resignation of H. Deane Hoyt was received. Mr. Hoyt was elected to the principalship of the consolidated school at Manchester, Massachusetts, at a very substantial increase in salary. Hollis E. Clow of Ha- verhill was engaged for the place vacated by Mr. Hoyt. Mr. Clow is a Bowdoin graduate and has had considerable ex- perience directing athletic teams. During the spring. Doris P. Allen resigned, Emma West of South Paris, Maine, be- ing engaged for the remainder of the school year. Miss West deciding to continue her college studies, Myrtle Graves of Norwell, a graduate of Radcliffe, was engaged. Lois C. Turner resigning, Lila G. Perry of Somerville, a Burdette graduate was engaged for the position, to which
Mrs. Turner returned in the fall.
Two changes occurred in the grades. Jessie Ferguson of Brockton, a graduate of the four year course at Bridge- water Normal School was elected to the position vacated by Ella F. Osborn, and Shirley W. Hare of Houlton, Maine, a graduate of the State Normal School at Farmington, Maine, with four years' teaching experience, was elected to the position vacated by Katherine Turner who went to Winthrop, Mass., to teach.
I feel that we have an efficient, hard-working teaching staff, worthy of the confidence and support of the people of Norwell.

TOWN OF NORWELL
SCHOOL ENROLMENT
The enrolment in the schools of the town at the present time is as follows:
High School 57
Grammar School, Grades 7, 8
40
Grammar School, Grade 6 34
Grammar School, Grades 4, 5 46
Center Primary, Grades 3, 4 24
Center Primary, Grades I, 2 39
Ridge Hill Primary, Grades 1, 2, 3 2I
Total 261
The number of children enrolled a year ago at this time in the schools of Norwell was 252.
SUPERVISION OF SPECIAL SUBJECTS
The supervision of special subjects has been carried on well as usual this past year.
Fortunately, drawing supervision has been restored again in Norwell. The exhibitions of drawing and the prizes won at Marshfield Fair testify to the excellent results se- cured by our drawing supervisor in other towns.
The quality of music at graduation proves the excellent work of our music supervisor. One value of music and drawing is the refining influence on the young. Music and drawing have a rightful place in our curriculum because they touch life at so many points beyond the school days. .
Supervision of physical instruction is exceedingly im- portant and it is a source of gratification that Norwell in line with other progressive towns has this type of super- vision.
120
SEVENTY-SIXTH ANNUAL REPORT
TEACHING METHODS
Extensive use is made by the teachers of the town of modern, progressive methods of teaching such as the pro- ject method and the socialized recitation. Good old-fash- ioned drill work, however, is far from neglected.
Every teacher has a carefully worked out program for her own benefit and that of any substitute who may be called in.
Each teacher keeps a plan book in which she considers the aim and procedure of each lesson she teaches.
GENERAL STATISTICS
The following figures in the annual report of the State Department of Education for the school year ending June 30, 1925 may be of interest.
Population U. S. Census 1920 I348
Valuation as of April 1, 1924 $1 520 120 00
Average number of days in school session I76
Expenditure for school support from local taxation per $1000 valuation $II 84
Expenditure for support of schools from local tax-
ation per pupil in net average membership $77 25
HEALTH
Considerable attention is paid to the health of the child- ren by teachers, physicians, nurse, and dentist. The val- ue of the health work done through these agencies can hard- ly be overestimated. Many studies have been made show- ing the degree to which poor health is a contributing fac- tor to failure in school and mental retardation.
121
TOWN OF NORWELL
SIGHT AND HEARING TESTS
The state law reguires that the sight and hearing of all pupils be examined early in the school year and that the results be reported to the superintendent of schools. A summary of the reports sent in to me follows :
Number of pupils enrolled (Sept. 1925) 265
Number found defective in eyesight 22
Number found defective in hearing 6
Number of parents or guardians notified 27
SOME MISCELLANEOUS THINGS
Fire drills have been held regularly in the various schools.
It has been recommended to the teachers that school sav- ings accounts be fostered wherever possible.
The ordering of supplies has been put on as efficient and systematic basis as possible insuring economy in their pur- chase and preventing any possibility of teachers being with- out the necessary material equipment to work with.
Good use of visiting days has been made by teachers. Each teacher writes a report which is read at a teachers' meeting so that all teachers of the three towns of the sup- ervision district may benefit from new ideas obtained by individual teachers on their visits.
Only three children retarded 3 years or more who are subjects for special classes for deficient children have been discovered in an enumeration of backward children.
COST OF SCHOOLS
Occasionally a citizen remarks about what the schools used to cost when everything was proportionately less ex- pensive. If one will investigate present conditions thor- oughly, he will find that the Norwell school cost campares
122
SEVENTY-SIXTH ANNUAL REPORT
very favorably with that of other school systems of equal size. Indeed, he may find that he is getting more for his money than many other places.
The cost of schools everywhere is increased by growth of attendance, depreciation of the dollar, and the additional burdens society places on the schools. Various comparis- ons have been made showing how much less is spent for education than for various luxuries and amusements.
It cost less than four cents each day of the year per capita in the town of Norwell for the support of schools last year from local taxation. This is certainly not a great sum. It would be more fortunate for our school if this four cents per day came as an indirect tax; possibly it would not then be felt more keenly than are many of the present non-es- sentials for which we enjoy paying much more.
Money for schools is money invested. The man who pays toward the support of schools, although he may have no children of his own, is still paying for protection to his home, and aiding in the development of his community.
WHAT WE ARE TRYING TO DO
Train pupils to be thoughtful and responsive. Lead pu- pils to know how to use the information which they have acquired.
Stimulate interest and effort. Inspire.
Select suitable and adequate teaching material, emphasiz- ing essential values.
To be sympathetic and appreciative in working with pupils.
To be sincere and just in dealing with pupils.
Train for the worthy use of leisure time.
123
TOWN OF NORWELL
Teach citizenship and patriotism.
Stress proper habits, ideals and attitudes; and not be sat- isfied with the mere inculcation of knowledge.
To exemplify good manners and morals.
WHAT WE WANT AS OUR EDUCATIONAL PRODUCT
A right sentiment toward authority and obedience.
The power of selection, the ability to make wise choices.
Not only intelligence, but a fair-minded, honorable and public spirit.
A stronger moral and physical development as well as a cultivation of the intellect and social graces.
Proper ideals, habits, and attitudes in matters relating to courtesy, honesty, co-operation and the various other desirable qualities in human conduct.
Again let me express my sincere appreciation of the pleasant relationship existing between school committee, teachers, parents, children and myself.

All classes have received very vigorous and efficient treat- ment. They are well planned, instructed and supervised.
125
TOWN OF NORWELL
An outline of the High School's Curricula Activities is in the process of printing and will be issued soon to all parents.
The pupils are provided with modern texts in all classes. A good reference library is kept at the High School and is available to the pupils at all times.
The teachers are well provided with class room devices for teaching their subjects. The High school is in urgent need of new furniture. Both teachers and pupils would do better work if modern desks, seats and laboratory ta- bles were installed throughout the High school.
The discipline of the High school has been good. There has been no suspensions or expulsions. All pupils who en- tered High school last Fall are continuing in school.
On January 22nd, the Senior Class presented "Seven- teen" before an appreciative audience. This play was in- teresting, well done and worth while. Two invitation dances were given by the school and were well patronized. Both were successful financially and socially.
The singing class is doing excellent work. The pupils are anixous to sing. The boys and girls of Norwell sing well.
The drawing class is small but very much interested. It started late and therefore it has been difficult to get a larger enrollment for the Drawing teacher.
The Physical Training teacher has brought into play several new features in athletics that have done much to improve our usual sports. The basket ball teams have de- veloped a spirit and skill of which we are proud. Pupils

board, who have in many ways given assistance to me dur- ing the present school year. Their readiness to be of ser- vice when asked to help and the atmosphere of good will and friendship that exists among us has given me encour- agement to make efforts to satisfy.
Respectfully,
EDWIN PHILLIPS
Principal, Norwell High School.
School Nurse
To the Norwell School Committees
The health work in the schools during the past year has progressed along the same line as previous years. We have tried to impress on the childrens' minds that an "ounce of prevention is worth more than a pound of cure," and have met with a certain amount of success for while many diseases were prevalent with the co-operation of the par- ents, teachers and children we escaped any epidemic that might have otherwise occured.
More than one half the number of children with physical defects have had them corrected and the results in school have been noticeable and on the whole satisfactory.
The number of underweight children has also consider- ably decreased and this is encouraging for a child who is not in normal health, is greatly handicapped and cannot meet the everyday affairs of life as successfully as a healthy child.
Of course the work of the doctor, dentist, and nurse, would amount to but little without the co-operation of the people, and I wish to take thise opportunity to thank the parents, teachers and children for doing their share to- ward better health in the community.
Respectfully,
CATHERINE A. ROE

CATHERINE A. ROE
Director of Physical Education
Mr. Leon M. Farrin Supt. of Schools
I herewith submit my second annual report.
Physical training has been on trial in the Norwell schools for over a year and much benefit has been derived from it, considering the fact that each child receives less than an hours instruction each week.
The pupils in the primary grades are interested in "ac- tion stories" and put a great deal of energy into their move- ments.
Grades three, four and five are developing grace and rhythm in doing folk dances. The pupils are taught songs and sing as they dance.
In order to have good basketball players in High school the children must begin their training in the grades. The pupils in the sixth, seventh and eighth grades have been given talks and practice in playing the game, together with their regular exercises.
High school boys should have a man as their coach and advisor and I was very glad to have Mr. Hoyt take up that part of my work. Everyone knows of the splendid results of our boys basketball team.
130
SEVENTY-SIXTH ANNUAL REPORT
The girls are very much interested in the game and with effort and practice, they will develop into a worth-while team.
Games are the best means of character-building known.
One man has written :
"For when the One Great Scorer comes, To write against our name.
He writes not that you won or lost, But how you played the game."
Respectfully,
FRANCES ILLSLEY
.
Supervisor of Music
Mr. Leon M. Farrin,
Superintendent of Schools, Norwell, Mass.
I herewith present my annual report.
The work in music has been carried very much as in previous years, using the same course of study. Note singing in grades I and 2 has been developed along with the reading of the scale.
The work in grades 3 and 4 is a continuation of that done in the I and 2 with the addition of drill in the rudi- ments of music and practice in reading music.
In grades 5 and 6 the work becomes more difficult, the intervals are longer, rhythms more complicated, and the chromatic comes in for more serious consideration.
Beginning with grade 7 part singing in three parts has been developed. A report of the music would not be com- plete without reference to the good work which is being done by the chorus in the High school.
To the teachers I extend my appreciation for the co- operation given.
Respectfully submitted,
GEORGE H. WOODS
School Dentist
Mr. Farrin, Supt. of Schools
It gives me pleasure to submit to you the following sum- mary of dental work in the Norwell schools for 1925 :
Silver Fillings 175
Porcelain Fillings 51
Cement Fillings 3
Cleanings 45

There has been a marked increase in the care of the teeth in the schools. The brushing of the teeth has been espec- ially emphasized, particularly by the teachers and school nurse.
