ANNUAL REPORT
OF THE
SCHOOL COMMITTEE
OF THE
TOWN OF TEWKSBURY
TOGETHER WITH THE REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS
FOR THE
FISCAL YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31
1920
REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE
The year 1920 has been one of considerable progress in the "School Department. It has been the purpose of the School Board to give all our Schools certain attention each year so that they will be kept well stocked with necessary supplies, be safe and sanitary for children and teachers and kept in good repair inside and out.
Undoubtedly the peak of high prices was reached last Summer, and as the energy of the School Board was directed at the remod- elling of the Library School, a good deal of caution was used in spend- ing money on the other Schools until the Committee could be certain as to the expense to be incurred on the Library School.
It was found that while the sumn named in the special appropria- tion would still cover the major part of the work to be done on this building, yet some advance had gone into effect in building materials; the cost of furnishing had reached a much higher figure than esti- mated and in addition to this, it was decided that.in order to give a finished appearance to the work, the building should be painted.
Therefore, with the knowledge and assent of the building in- spection authorities, certain work in the Schools. such as the com- pletion of metal lath and plastering and retubing of the Foster School boiler, was postponed and the money used to insure the satisfac- tory completion of the work at the Library School.
This School was in a deplorable condition and had been con- demned not only by your Committee and other Townspeople but also by the Inspectors.
Today it stands completely renovated and with alterations of a nature to fit it for the uses of an up-to-date school building, so that it would hardly be recognized as having any connection with the old Library School. It will no doubt be of interest for some of our older citizens when looking at the present building, to call to mind the original little one-story school house which stood on this site.
The improvements include a larger basement with new furnace and more convenient arrangements for removing ashes; new driven "well, 500 gallon pressure tank and gas engine mounted properly on a
(95)
.
new cement floor: water is supplied to drinking fountain in the en- tries of both school rooms above, as well as to the new toilets for which ample drainage has been provided.
Both school rooms are ventilated according to the requirements of the law, new exits have been provided, and better light is fur- nished by means of special sets of windows on the East side of the building. Supply rooms, coat rooms and a teacher's room complete the accommodations. The room on the lower floor was furnished with new desks and seats and curtains of the latest type were adjust- ed to the windows.
The front entry was brightened by means of the installation of a transom over a new set of doors. The porch was laid in concrete, as were also the steps.
The flagpole was taken down; shortened for safety and painted, while a large number of minor repairs and additions, together with & thorough job of painting both inside and out, completed the work.
It was the intention of the Committee to spend some money in laying out the grounds about this and other Schools but funds were not available. Conditions over which we have no control forced ex- penditures for the year in excess of the appropriation for Schools, in spite of efforts to keep within bounds.
For the information of the voters, the following is pointed out with regard to increases in expenses which could not be anticipated.
It has been necessary to grant some increases in salaries; two more teachers have been added to the pay roll; trolley transporta- tion for scholars has advanced 25% ;High School Tuition was ad- vanced in the Fall of 1920 nearly 100%; fuel cost more than esti- mated, although orders were placed early in the year, and it was impossible to foretell the limits of the cost of supplies, although it is. to be hoped that the peak of high prices has now been passed.
The School Committee does not offer apology for a situation as indicated above, but trusts that the Townspeople will believe that our Schools have obtained the greatest possible benefit from expenditures. incurred.
The teacher situation is enlarged upon under the report of the Superintendent. It is the opinion of the Committee that under his guidance the best is being done today for Tewksbury Schools, that. can be expected under the present situation which is still fraught with so much difficulty throughout the State and Country.
Following the course of necessity and whether by advice or un -. der compulsion of State Laws your Committee will continue to ask for funds sufficient to keep the standard of teaching in our Schools. . as high as possible.
(96)
As regards accommodations, the yearly increase in the number of scholars at present is small, and the additional space at the Libra- ry School has brought temporary relief at least. It should be remem- bered, however, that the number of scholars now attending our Schools is sufficient to fill nearly all rooms to capacity and that it is not satisfactory to use the small class room in the Foster Building as much more than a recitation room if the health of the children is to be regarded.
Your Committee calls attention to the faithful and high quality of work of all those directly connected with our Schools and invites the Townspeople to visit the Schools oftener, that they may be ac- quainted with the conditions surrounding their children, and if neces- sary offer suggestions to the Committee.
The lack of education in its simpler forms has been shown to be great in this Country, while it is increasingly evident as we daily re- view the affairs of this and other nations, that education is the true means of bringing our young people to appreciate the blessings of, and uphold ours, the best form of government in the world today.
We recommend the following sums be raised to cover expenses as enumerated below, for the year 1921: .
