ANNUAL REPORT
OF THE
SCHOOL COMMITTEE
OF THE
TOWN OF TEWKSBURY
TOGETHER WITH OTHER PARTICULARS OF THE DEPARTMENT
FOR THE
FISCAL YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31
1922
REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE FOR THE YEAR 1922
During the past year needed repairs and improvements have been made in our schools, such as the installation of a new electrical water pump at the Shawsheen building, and the repairing and re- shingling of the roof.
With the changing of the grades at the Foster School, whereby each teacher has charge of one grade only, it became necessary to convert a part of Pickering Hall into a classroom; grade six now occupies this room. The increased numbers in each of the grades in this building is rapidly becoming a serious problem. The Foster building, in its present condition, cannot adequately provide for the increasing population of the school, also, the building will have to be painted this year.
During the coming year we hope to establish a Junior High School, consisting of grades six, seven and eight. The establish- ment of this system will serve to eliminate the difficulty which the present system now brings about when students go from grammar to High School. The change will be more gradual and inducive to a larger number to obtain a higher education. We have now sixty pupils attending High Schools, a vast increase over the attendance of previous years, and next year we hope for a still greater number.
