The legislature is continuing to receive for consideration bills for increased State Aid and for a higher minimum salary for teachers.
The work of the Art and Music Supervisors continues on its same high level, and no special report is asked for at this time. Our Band Leader is doing an outstanding job with an increasing number of pupils, many of them from the lower grades so that they will have many years of instruction and group work ahead of them. A concert is being prepared for, and should be of interest.
Proposed projects might well be an expansion of the parking facilities at the new elementary school, which has proven so popular for evening functions. Fill could be used in the rear of the building toward the brook, and would result in increased space.
The high school will be strengthened by the employment of a teacher who can act as girls' gym instructor and sport coach. It is anticipated that a teacher can be secured to teach one of the upper grades, and to handle this much needed instruction.
The Superintendent feels that the immediate pressure is off in Nor- well, now that a new school is built. When it is realized that the Building Committee had approximately ninety meetings, most of which the Super- intendent attended, it can be understood that he feels well pleased to have it behind him. Because he is a Superintendent of three towns, he is now in a similar position in Hanson, with a new twelve room building and large auditorium-gymnasium fairly well along in its construction. Han- over is just facing the enrollment squeeze and has had many preliminary Building Committee meetings. The Superintendent has had about one hundred and fifteen meetings this past year in connection with his official duties. With the exception of a very few days he is on duty during the summer months, caring for repairs, interviewing teachers, compiling re- ports, and otherwise preparing for the opening of school. Because of his limited home hours he appreciates it when school business can be trans- acted through the local school offices or through his office in Hanover.
I appreciate the whole hearted cooperation of all who have made the past years so successful.
Respectfully submitted,
CLIFTON E. BRADLEY,
Superintendent of Schools.

TOWN OF NORWELL
REPORT OF THE PRINCIPAL
To the Superintendent of Schools
Mr. Clifton E. Bradley
I herewith submit the principal's annual report concerned with the Norwell Public Schools.
The new Elementary School has been in service now for one year. It is functioning smoothly as an educational unit. With all but one of the elementary grades in the new building it is much less difficult than former- ly to organize and administer a program of learning for the youth con- cerned. Teachers and administration have been working this year to achieve a better correlation among the various grade activities so that the learning process throughout the system might be one of continuous mental growth and cultural enrichment. Subject matter and method have been ob- jects of close scrutiny. Material and procedure have been revised, deleted, or added to, as the case may have been, in order that pupil achievement be at the maximum. Educational goals have been better established and more clearly defined. New teachers in the elementary system this year; Mrs. Ford, grade three; Miss Lusk, grade four; and Miss Standley, grade five, have proved definite assets in their respective capacities and have contributed much to the success of the total program.
The High School was visited several months ago by Mr. A. Russell Mack, Supervisor of Secondary Education for the State Department of Education. Mr. Mack rates a school in three categories; building, per- sonnel, and program. Norwell received an A-1 rating from Mr. Mack in all categories. Your faculty at the High School is considering the needs and requirements that well may be manifest in the near future. It is reasonably safe to assume that the enrollment in grades seven through twelve will nearly triple by the year 1958. Such a "boom" condition will necessitate expansion of existing facilities, revision of the program of studies, and addition to staff personnel. We shall make every effort to be ready for the increase in pupil population. It is hoped that the citizens of Norwell are aware of the fact that larger enrollments call for greater expenditures for the support of schools -- if current high standards are to be maintained. New teachers in the High School, Mr. Thomas and Mr. Kiernan, are doing very excellent work in their respective departments; mathematics and social studies.
I take this opportunity to pay tribute to my faculty. As individuals they are well-trained, experienced, hard working, professional people. Collectively they form the very best staff it has been my privilege to know and with whom to work.
Again I thank the Superintendent of Schools, the School Committee, Staff, and Citizens for the close cooperation and the many considerations that have contributed so vastly to the success of the year.
Respectfully submitted,
FREDERICK A. SMALL,
Principal.

ONE HUNDRED-FIRST ANNUAL REPORT
REPORT OF SCHOOL PHYSICIAN
Superintendent of Schools,
Norwell, Massachusetts
Dear Sir:
The annual report of the School Physician for the year 1950 is sub- mitted as follows:
All students have been given careful physical examination. Nutrition, vision and hearing are especially checked by the School Nurse and teachers by standard graded test methods.
The general health of the schools was excellent. Routine notices were sent to parents in those instances requiring correction or special attention. Almost all pupils are able to participate in regular athletic activities.
The custodial services including sanitation, heating, and lighting of the school buildings have been excellent. Contagious diseases have been few and easily controlled.
Before a special committee meeting, I have urged that the new school auditorium be used as a playroom and gymnasium, including basketball. It is believed that the Town Meeting voted for the new build- ing with this intent. Norwell is deficient in physical education, and needs more emphasis on competitive athletics. The girls, especially, need a good physical education instructor. Many teachers and Norwell residents have expressed their belief in the benefits of athletics in the development of healthy minds and bodies.
The School Nurse has been of much assistance, and will submit a separate statistical report.
Respectfully submitted,
RAYMOND G. VINAL, M. D. School Physician.

ONE-HUNDRED-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT
REPORT OF THE SELECTMEN
'T'o the Citizens of Norwell:
The Town of Norwell is growing and each year brings increased prob- lems; the expenditures are mounting out of proportion. This is due in great part to the expanding social services demanded by the citizens and those required by state law. The resulting load on the part time elected and ap- pointed public servants is in some measure uneconomic.
If the increased demand for better and more schools, roads, water, fire, police, and other services is met, either the property owner must contribute more cash or assist in providing in material ways his proportionate share of that which he votes for at town meeting.
The State Auditor's Report, covering the year of 1950 Town Accounts, has been received. The accounts show proper balances and no recommen- dations were made by the Division of Accounts.
We regretfully announce the resignation of Mr. Kenneth A. Torrey as Town Accountant as of December 1, 1951. Mr. Torrey rendered outstand- ing service to the Town of Norwell for 15 years, always courteous and oblig- ing while at the same time carrying out the exacting requirements of his duties. On December 1, 1951 the Selectmen appointed Mr. Harry L. Chase, Jr., to fill the vacancy in the Town Accountancy Office.
All legal steps necessary to transmit the Zoning By-Law voted by the town at a Special Town Meeting December 3, 1951, to the State of Massa- chusetts Attorney General's Office have been complied with, and the town now awaits said Attorney General's action.
Civilian Defense continued in 1951 under the direction of Mr. W. Clarke Atwater whose report is attached.
The Town of Norwell has lost several citizens whose records of public service have covered years of unselfish contributions to our community. Among those were members of the Advisory Board:
Mr. E. Harold Osborne Dr. Frank W. Rounds.
The armed services has borrowed several of our citizens, among these Mr. Ernest H. Knight who resigned from the Advisory Board this past year. Chapter 90 work under the 1951 contract on Grove Street, Prospect Street, to School Street, has been satisfactorily completed thereby adding another improved highway for main travel.
Another important road problem that should receive attention soon is Main Street from the Center to Scituate Town Line. The drainage is bad, and temporary patching during the past few years has been expensively inadequate. Chapter 90 assistance will be provided only by Town accept- ance of the County Commissioner's layout.
May we suggest increased citizen attendance at the Town Forum pre- ceding each Town Meeting, also the monthly school board meetings, as well as the special committee meetings on various problems.
The Board of Selectmen meet each Friday evening from 7:00 P.M. to 9:00 P.M. to serve you on all town matters, and welcome the opportunity to be of service by appointment at any other day and hour convenient to our citizens. Adequate personnel is available at the Town Hall each day for the transaction of routine matters.
The Selectmen, on behalf of the Town, wish to extend thanks and ap- preciation to the various departments and committees who have given generously of their time and ability in their service to the Town of Norwell.
