TOWN OF NORWELL
since their interest and dedication to our Norwell youth will not cease with their leaving.
There are 30 local pupils between the ages of 7-18 enrolled in private schools, and 9 in parochial schools. Two pupils are attending St. Coletta and another school where they can secure better individual attention. Two pupils were attending agricultural and vocational schools on October 1st and two more entered later. The private- parochial school group comprise 3.7% of the total school age group. Approximately 1/3 of the children entering our first grades have had experience in a private kindergarten.
Both of the elementary buildings are making use of a special-help teacher where pupils for various reasons are able to secure more in- dividual help than they can get in the classroom. Emphasis is placed on keeping these children in the regular grades situation, but supple- menting their work in the area of their greatest need.
Budget With such rapid growth continuing budgets have no where to go but up. Costs reflect greater numbers, increased general costs, and rising teacher salaries. The additional State aid never keeps abreast of the increase, but tax payers should realize that when they vote the appropriation in Town Meeting that there is a general receipt to the Town of approximately $77,500.00 which is used to reduce the tax rate.
In addition we had a receipt of $9,149.49 Federal money from Public Law 874 "in lieu of tax money for those children whose parents work on federal property". This likewise reduces the amount needed for schools.
Major repairs have been delayed to be done when workmen are erecting the addition. The Elementary School exterior painting was completed, and one room done. At the Cole School all work done was covered by the builder's guarantee. Some work on the grounds will go over until this spring, likewise under the guarantee. At the High School, which is now 20 years old, replacement of water pipes will have to be done, probably on a 2 or 3 year basis. Routine painting should continue to be done on a yearly basis so that the worst is al- ways being improved, and there is no great amount in any one year.
Schools belong to the people, therefore we expect to work very closely with parents in keeping our schools on a high educational level. It is encouraging when the P. T. A. and similar organizations work directly with our schools. We are encouraged by the large number of organizations which are giving thought to the schools, and financial help to students through scholarships and awards.

ONE HUNDRED EIGHTH ANNUAL REPORT
Reports of the various branches of the School Department follow. School work must be done by dedicated people. I am proud to be a part of this team, which this year is working with 1,029 Norwell pupils. I especially appreciate the continued efforts of the School Committee which seeks to have better schools for our people.
Respectfully submitted,
CLIFTON E. BRADLEY, Supt. of Schools.
REPORT OF SCHOOL PHYSICIAN
Mr. Clifton E. Bradley,
Superintendent of Schools,
Norwell, Massachusetts
Dear Sir:
Please accept my report as school physician for 1957.
Regular physical examinations have been completed in the high school, junior high school, and grades one and four in both Elementary schools.
Routine eyesight and hearing tests were done, and growth measurement recorded on the health cards.
Parents were notified of unusual or correctible physical defects.
Except for some colds, contagion continues to be generally less.
The Board of Health collaborated with immunizations against Polio, Diphtheria, Tetanus and Pertussis.
In the past twenty years, I have noticed a definite trend of im- proved health in our school children. Very few are unable to partici- pate in the growing physical education program.
The very successful addition of track and cross country to the High School athletic program is filling a competitive need in that age group.
The present inadequate facilities will soon be more strained.
Miss Roe continues to be of great assistance on examinations, re- cording and effective liaison with students, parents and teachers.
I recommend that the "school nurse" should be a full time position.
Sincerely yours,
RAYMOND G. VINAL, M. D. School Physician

TOWN OF NORWELL
REPORT OF THE HIGH SCHOOL PRINCIPAL
Mr. Clifton E. Bradley Superintendent of Schools Norwell, Massachusetts
Dear Mr. Bradley:
Herewith is submitted the annual report of the high-school principal.
At present the high school building contains grades seven through twelve, a natural and desirable educational unit. Grade six now oc- cupies two classrooms pending the time there is available a sufficiency of space in an elementary school building. We exist, educationally, as a junior-senior high school, with grades seven and eight the junior unit, and grades nine through twelve the senior high school. In terms of numbers, there are currently 428 pupils attending classes in the high school building. Projected figures indicate that grades seven through twelve may enroll 952 pupils by the year 1968. This con- dition of real and anticipated growth, of course, is one of the major issues necessitating planning now for the extension of plant facilities at the secondary level.
The junior high grades provide learning experiences in English, social studies (American history and world geography), science, mathematics, literature, composition, spelling, writing, industrial arts, home economics, music (vocal and instrumental), art and physical education. The work at this level is departmentalized with the faculty members working with the young people in their respective areas of specialization. The junior high years constitute a period of transition from pre-adolescence to a degree of maturity in the upper grades. A school is a junior high school only to the extent in which its courses of study and administration conform to the needs of the adolescent youth. Your junior high school subscribes to this philos- ophy and attempts to translate it into practical procedure during each day of the school year.
The Norwell Senior High School offers three different approaches to later life situations. College preparatory subjects give to the college- minded youth an adequacy of readiness to cope most satisfactorily and successfully with the requirements of any post-secondary school. Business or commercial subject offerings prepare the young person for further training in the business area or for immediate vocational en- deavor after high school graduation. General subject selections are
122
ONE HUNDRED EIGHTH ANNUAL REPORT
offered to those pupils who have no manifest or immediate objectives as such. These young people are carefully guided into areas that ap- pear to best serve their abilities, interests and ambitions.
Subjects offered to senior high school pupils are college English I, II, III and IV; general English I, II, III and IV; Latin I and II; French I, II and III; algebra I and II; plane geometry; solid geometry; trigonometry; general mathematics; review mathematics; general science; biology; physics; chemistry; United States history; world history; phychology; civics; problems of democracy; shorthand I and II; typewriting I, II, and III; transcription; business machines; art; mechanical drawing; engineering drawing; automotives; industrial arts; home economics; food preparation and service; clothing; vocal music; instrumental music; music appreciation; driver education; and physical education.
As in the junior high school, work is departmentalized and the teaching is by a competent, well-trained, and experienced staff.
In the area of the cocurricular a well-balanced program is offered. Athletic activity includes soccer, softball, baseball, basketball, track, volleyball, field hockey, and archery. Team contests between groups within the school and between schools are organized and supervised in the interests of good physical education. Gymnasium classes are provided for all pupils. Club programs, assemblies, student council activities, National Honor Society projects, and socials all supplement the academic in the process of developing young people in their en- tire personalities.
Believing that democratic society calls for alert and intelligent leadership, the Norwell Junior-Senior High School has initiated a plan for identifying those pupils who might be considered better-than- average actually and/or potentially in academic achievement. These superior pupils are exposed to an enrichment program in the areas of their abilities and interests. They are given, with supervision and guidance, the opportunities for exploration and research that strength- en their understanding, increase their knowledge, and broaden their perspective. We believe that this phase of education is vital to a sur- viving and strong American way of life.
Educational and vocational guidance is an organized depart- mental unit at Norwell High School. This department works intimately with all the pupils to help them in planning for their future educa- tional and vocational needs and in making school and life adjustments. Guidance serves here as the word implies; it neither asserts nor directs,
123
TOWN OF NORWELL
but rather assists young people to establish their own goals and ob- jectives, and motivates and guides them along paths of endeavor com- mensurate with their desires and capabilities.
Plant facilities at Norwell High School are now inadequate. Needs in terms of space and equipment are apparent in relation to gym- nasium, auditorium, laboratory, general classroom, and special purpose areas. This writer recommends consideration of the advisability of maintaining the present junior-senior high school as a junior high school housing grades seven, eight, and nine; and the construction of a new senior high school for the top three grades.
The Norwell Junior-Senior High School is no longer a small school - not small in terms of pupil enrollment nor in the nature of its operation. It offers a well-balanced program in the academic and in the cocurricular. Educationally it is geared to grow with an in- crease in pupil population and in compatibility with changing concepts in an ever-shifting scene of world events. Provided with an adequacy of physical plant, staff, and "tools of the trade", the Norwell educa- tional system can continue to function to produce a pupil product second to none.
I am very grateful to the Superintendent of Schools, the School Committee, the faculty and staff members, and the citizens of the Town of Norwell for their constant interest and cooperation.
Respectfully submitted,
FREDERICK A. SMALL, Principal Norwell High School
Mr. C. E. Bradley Supt. of Schools Hanover, Mass. Dear Mr. Bradley:
Following four months of double sessions during which time we experienced the utmost cooperation from Mrs. Osborn and staff at Norwell Elementary School, the student body and faculty of Ridge Hill moved into their beautiful new building.
124
ONE HUNDRED EIGHTH ANNUAL REPORT
The thrill of a new building was felt by both pupils and faculty and after a short period of adjustment teaching and learning sched- ules resumed.
On March 3, 1957, dedication of the building took place and it was officially named Grace Farrar Cole School in honor of a teacher whose life work was well appreciated by the people of Norwell.
From January through June of 1957, ten of our twelve rooms were occupied. At present all twelve classrooms are occupied and we also have a very active remedial reading room. The following table will show the distribution of pupils in Grace Farrar Cole School as of December 17, 1957:

The greatest number of pupils in any one classroom is now thirty- three and the least is twenty-one. Come next September, it appears we will be in need of two more classrooms. Tentative plans have been made for the use of the cafeteria and the auditorium as classrooms to handle a fifth and a sixth grade class.
In the fall Miss Jean Murray and Mrs. Janet German became our new first grade teachers. Mrs. Jean McCusker, second grade, replaced Mrs. Grace Alvey who now is handling our extra help program. Mrs. Rachel Hardin is teaching fifth grade along with Mrs. Victoria Hunt who returned in September after teaching our sixth grade during the months of May and June. Mr. Everett Leonard is now our sixth grade teacher.
We are very pleased with the helpful and enthusiastic cooperation we are receiving from our "room mothers". Our thanks go to the P.T.A. for supplying the initiative in starting this system and to the many parents who have volunteered their services that it may be a success. We trust this cooperation will continue to grow thus making our system of education ever stronger.
Academically speaking the first and foremost job of the elemen- tary school is to teach each child how to read. Reading consists not only of sounding out words on a written page but more important, an ability to think. A good reader is one who reads thoughtfully and this is what we are endeavoring to produce from each of our pupils. With
125
TOWN OF NORWELL
this goal in mind Cole School has initiated a special help program directed by Mrs. Grace Alvey. Sometimes referred to as remedial reading, in actuality it encompasses a far greater territory. This plan provides,-
1. Testing
2. Phonic help for all grades
3. Remedial reading
4. Speech assistance
5. Teacher guidance
6. Parent conferences
Since September a testing program has been put into effect where- by all first grade pupils received a readiness test in October and an- other in January. Mental ability tests are now given in the second and again in the fifth grade so that each child will have received two tests before leaving for junior high school. Achievement tests are given in May of each school year and are most helpful in showing the accom- plishments and weaknesses of each individual so that instruction may be applied accordingly.
Also, in recognition of the advancing educational standards, we are developing an over-all library service in fiction, non-fiction, and research for students and faculty.
The faculty of Cole School wishes to thank all of you- taxpayers, building committee, school committee, and school administrators who are making it possible for us to guide the learning activities of your children in such a wonderful educational environment.
It was a pleasure to see so many parents attend open house November 13 and 14, held in recognition of National Education Week. The faculty welcomes opportunities to discuss mutual interests with parents. If we may be of service please do not hesitate to call us.
Respectfully submitted,
WILLIAM W. HAYS, Principal
Grace Farrar Cole School

ONE HUNDRED EIGHTH ANNUAL REPORT
Mr. Clifton E. Bradley
Superintendent of Schools
Hanover, Massachusetts
Dear Sir:
Herewith is the annual report from the Norwell Elementary School, Main Street.
Our enrollment when school started in September was 294. At present it is 304.
We were very fortunate in having all teachers return in Septem- ber. This always tends to make an easy, pleasant and profitable start.
Only favorable reports have been received concerning our new report card.
Many parents took advantage of our Open House during National Education Week and visited school. Ninety per cent of the pupils were represented either by parents or grandparents. We were pleased to see so many fathers.
Last June, we had Visitation Day for first graders entering in September. This proved very helpful to the little folks and made our "first day" in September run very smoothly.
We have cooperated with the Board of Health when they gave Booster and Polio Shots.
The testing of eyes and ears has been carried on as in former years. The school physician has given the physical examinations.
The attendance has been very good except for a few days this last fall when an "epidemic" raced through our building. Then nearly one third of the children were absent.
The usual field trips were taken in the spring. The following places were visited: the Children's Museum, King's Castle, Plymouth Cordage and the Maparium at the Christian Science Publishing Society.
This year each room has been allotted a room mother. This has worked out very well and they have proved very helpful. This pro-
127
TOWN OF NORWELL
ject was worked out by Mrs. William Cook, working through our P. T. A.
We are short of room and hope that this situation will be taken care of soon.
I feel that this year has been a very successful one. Standards are being kept high. Our pupils compare favorably with those enter- ing from other schools.
In closing, I wish to thank the school committee, superintendent, and school personnel for the unfailing support which they have given me.
Respectfully submitted, ELLA F. OSBORN, Principal Norwell Elementary School
REPORT OF THE SCHOOL DENTIST AND SCHOOL HYGIENIST
To the Board of Health and
Superintendent of Schools
Norwell, Massachusetts
Gentlemen:
This report marks the end of a 31 year period that I have served as your school dentist.
Many thanks for the co-operation of teachers, parents, school officials, school nurse and the Board of Health. All have united to make my efforts for the children a little easier.
With the increased enrollment of pupils, it has become harder to complete the pupils in all grades.
Increased educational work by the hygenist and referral to private dentists may be the answer in relieving some of the clinic load.

Your committee has been actively engaged in the neighborhood discussions of many phases of education. Members have attended meetings in Scituate, Hanson and at Boston University to study salary discussions, Regional High School for Hanover and Norwell and Regional Vocational School.
One member served on the Regional High School Survey Com- mittee, another served on the Elementary Addition Building Com- mittee, one on Regional Vocational School, one on Long Range School planning and a fifth on the Salary Study Committee; reports of which will be found elsewhere.
The question of whether the Superintendence Union of Hanson, Hanover and Norwell should be dissolved was studied. At a joint meeting of the Union Committee it was voted to continue the Union as all the committee felt it unwise to dissolve at this time when many other problems confront us.
To relieve the load carried by the Superintendent in Norwell, we have appointed Frederick A. Small, our High School principal as Assistant Superintendent of Schools working under and with Mr. Bradley.
The question of Teachers' Salaries was studied by a committee consisting of one member from each of the following: Advisory Board, School Committee, Teachers' Club, P.T.A., one at large and Superin- tendent ex-officio. This Salary Committee made the following pre- liminary report: "On July 30, 1957, the Salary Study Committee voted to recommend the following salary changes in the 1953 salary schedule and that this revision go into effect on September 1, 1957.
