oped child through this cooperation. In order that par- ents may intelligently understand the work habits which make for success, each subject has been divided into its component skills and these are marked separately. By an- alyzing the marks, any parent can tell the type of assistance that is needed in order to insure success in school.
Norwell High School has always been a class A High School. It is very desirable that it so continue. In order to do so it must meet certain standards set by the State De- partment of Education. The following paragraph is fron a report made by Mr. Jerome Burtt, Supervisor of Second - ary Education, after a visit to the school.
"In connection with the physical equipment of the building, I noticed that the facilities for la- boratory work were very poor. I do not see how the school can adequately prepare its pupils in science with such meagre equipment in that field. You will notice from Paragraph 12 of the Reg- ulations for Approval of High Schools which was recently sent out, that the number and character of classrooms, recitation rooms, and laboratories and the equipment of the school shall be such as may reasonably be expected in a Class A High School. I would like to suggest very strongly that improvement be made in this respect as soon as possible otherwise it may be difficult to con- tinue classifying the Norwell High School as a Class A. school."
During the past year there has been much uncertainty as to what the future would hold for any of us. The activ- ities of the Federal Government have become more and more a part of the life of every community. Unless this tendency is a temporary one, it is becoming increasingly necessary to establish a thorough understanding of the means by which such an occurrence takes place and to de-

velop again the critical attitude toward government which so characterised our forefathers. To this end I recommend the establishing of definite courses in citizenship in the schools of the town.
The enthusiasm and care which the teachers have shown for their work during the past year has been a cause of pleasure and a source of inspiration to those who have been fortunate enough to come in contact with them. The schools will continue to progress while they are in charge.
The committee is to be congratulated for the careful way in which it has handled the affairs of the schools. The developments of the past year have placed added burd- ens upon every town official. In meeting these efficiently, time and energy have been necessarily expended. Norwell is fortunate to have a group of people in charge of the schools who hold the welfare of the children so close to their hearts.
Very respectfully yours,
WILLARD SPALDING, Superintendent of Schools

Report of Principal
To the Superintendent of Schools
Mr. Willard B. Spalding :
I present my annual report for the Norwell High and Grammar School for the year 1933.
Several changes have been made in the curriculum this past year. One is the addition of a course called "Prob- lems of Today." This is taught by Mr. Jackman. Anoth- er is the introduction of the Rugg series in Social Science. Both are very valuable additions.
The Senior Class of 1933 was of normal size. Several of the members of the class are attending college or various secretarial schools. The class did not attempt a formal trip of any magnitude. This policy seems to be sound at the present time.
The Operetta "The Gypsy Rover" was presented April 13 with great success. This production was ably coached by Mrs. Stetson and Mr. Booth. The stage fixtures were excellent, being due to the cooperation of Mr. Robert Wade.
The school play presented this year was "She Stoops to Conquer." This production was slightly more difficult than previous plays, being a costume affair. Coached by Mr. Booth it was very satisfactory, and I am sure the pupils benefited from it greatly.

EIGHTY-FOURTH ANNUAL REPORT
Graduation exercises opened June 19, with an appropri- ate baccalaureate sermon by the Rev. Alfred Wilson. Sen- ior Class Day exercises were held Monday, June 20. The usual excellent banquet and amusements were enjoyed. Members of the classes of 1932 and 1923 were guests. Plans are already being made for the coming graduation.
The past athletic season was satisfactory. Norwell fill- ished well in the South Shore Basket Ball League. We were not as successful in base ball but the training and enjoyment well paid for the expense. The girls team alsc enjoyed a good season. The teams were coached by Mr. Jackman and Miss Stiles.
The Shipbuilder was again issued as a graduation nun- ber. The magazine paid for itself and was greatly enjoy- ed. The present class will publish a number if finances permit.
Hot lunches are being served again this year. These have proven so beneficial that they will surely continue. Parent cooperation has made this possible. Pupils in the building who are unable to purchase a luncheon are furn- ished one free of charge.
The personnel of the faculty has been slightly altered, Miss Heathcote replacing Miss White, who resigned to be married, and Miss Ollendorff, replacing Miss Stiles in the English department. The girl's physical education is han- dled by Miss Meyers, who is practice teaching. Her in- struction in dancing is very popular and valuable. This includes both boys and girls.

Home Economics
The Home Economics department has been planned with the idea of giving the students an appreciation of the every- day arts of the households as well as a practical knowledge of the application of foods and clothing.
In the beginners' class in clothing the seventh grade giris concentrated their efforts, at the first of the year, on hand- work. They made an apron, a holder and a head band for their first year cooking class as well as an Italian hemstitch- ed article which, in many instances, was used as a Christmas gift. The care and use of the sewing machine, in making simple undergarments, is now being taught : darning and mending will be taken up at the end of the year.
.\ rather extensive study, by the eighth grade class. in foods, was made of the changing of the average home kit- chen and its equipment to a well planned one. The rela- tionship between appetite, an attractively set table and the correct way to serve nourishing foods, to the average fam- ily has been established in our study of the breakfast and the luncheon unit. In the remainder of the year, to give our students the poise of the hostess, opportunity will be given them. to prepare Sunday suppers and to demonstrate simple foods. Throughout the year, stress has been placed on well balanced meals and nourishing foods.
The Lunchroom Management class has had full charge of preparing and serving the luncheons to the Students of the Norwell schools. They have also learned the financial and administrative business of the lunchroom.

PRISCILLA HEATHCOTE
Supervisor of Music
Mr. Willard Spalding Superintendent of Schools
Dear Sir :-
This year the course of music in the first three grades is somewhat different, combining the "Music Hour" System with Boston University Methods.
The purpose of "The Music Hour" is two fold, to broaden the pupils experience in music and to be made to function in all possible phases of the child's life, both in and out of school. Its pedagogy leads the child from the familiar to the unknown, largely, by allowing the child to discover all he can in music, giving scope to his imagina- tive and creative instincts.
Tonal development and rhythmis work are the main fea- tures in first grade study.
Under tonal development comes the treatment of mono- tones and the training of head tones through rote song ex- perience.
Under rhythmic work we have the toy orchestra and rhy- thm play, the fundamental movements of physical expres- sion being the march, skip, hop, jump and galop.
The recognition of rhythms of unfamiliar songs by means of a combination of scansion and reference to the notation of familiar phrases, motives and figure rhythms make up the second grade work.
102
EIGHTY-FOURTH ANNUAL REPORT
We have further development of the recognition of the phrase, motive and figure ryhthms and their notations in the third grade.
As formerly, two part music begins in the fourth grade with more difficult two part songs in the fifth, adding the study of keys and chromatics, also some correlation worl- with drawing lessons.
The usual study of three part songs takes place in the sixth and seventh grades with more difficult ryhthms and chromatic progressions, adding the bass staff in the eighth grade.
The high school chorus meets once a week and are pre- 1 aring their special annual program to be held in March.
A few special singers from the chorus gave a selection at the December meeting of the Womans' Republican Club, and a group from the sixth grade sang carols from the balcony of the hall.
Much is being attempted instrumentally, Miss Quinn has a violin class again this year, Mrs. Damon from Scituate is giving piano lessons and Mr. Leach, band instructor of Whitman High school has two or three pupils on Wednes- days after school.
A demonstration of this work will be given during the latter part of the year.
I wish to close my report with a word of appreciation to school officials for their fine co-operation and to our school teachers for their untiring efforts in school music.

WILLIS B. PARSON, D. M. D.
Supervisor of Drawing
To the Superintendent of Schools Mr. Willard Spalding :
The following is my report for the work of the Art De- partment in the Norwell Schools.
It was decided in the spring to hold exhibitions of Ele- mentary school work in the buildings housing those grades, rather than to have our usual large exhibit of all the grades at the High School. This plan I believe will prove most satisfactory in the future, as many parents come to view their children's work at their own school.
Our annual exhibit, held at the Marshfield Fair, evident- ly impressed the judges most favorably. We received a very generous share of First and Second Prize Awards, and I sincerely hope that we shall be as fortunate this coming summer. Every year more school systems of the surround- ing territory seem to enter the contest, and with greater competition our standards are necessarily raised. There- fore the Fair Exhibition of school work serves as a very timely "barometer."
In the spring the department of the High School under- took the settings of the school operetta. From the favor- able comment of many people, it would seem that they had met with a good measure of success.
The High School classes throughout the entire schoo!

year, are kept busy with many art aids; posters, dance dec- orations, and many other school activities. It makes a very crowded program to attempt so much work with but one day a week in which to accomplish everything.
Marion Hardwick a graduate of our High School and for several years a member of our art class is enrolled as a student at the Designers Art School of Boston.
In closing I wish to thank all the members of our school system, who through their friendly attitude, help in making the Art Department successful.
