REPORT OF WESTFORD ACADEMY JANUARY 1, 1931


Mr. H. D. Sylvester,

With the enlarged enrollment, it has become necessary to seat the pupils in six "home rooms". This has been done as nearly as possible by classes. New folding arm chairs in the study hall, so arranged as not to slide about, but which may be easily removed for basket-ball games, are a great improvement over the old style chairs.


Athletics


The Academy Baseball Team was fairly successful during the sea- son of 1930, winning the majority of its games. We play only teams be- longing to the Northwest Middlesex Interscholastic Baseball League, which includes the high schools of Acton, Ayer, Groton, Littleton, Pepperell, and Westford.


16


The Basket-ball schedule for this winter is as follows:


Dec. 17, 1930 Groton at Westford.


Jan. 9, 1931 Westford at Littleton.


Jan. 16, 1931


Chelmsford at Westford.


Jan. 23, 1931


Westford at North Andover.


Jan. 30, 1931


Littleton at Westford.


Feb. 6, 1931 Westford at Chelmsford.


Feb. 11, 1931


Groton at Groton.


Feb. 13, 1931 North Andover at Westford.


All the above games except those with Groton are with teams of the Lowell Suburban Basket-ball League. Owing to certain local condi- tions, the high schools of Billerica and Wilmington, members of the League, have been obliged to discontinue basketball this season, leav- ing only four towns to compete for the championhsip. All the schools support girls' teams as well as boys' teams and the same schedule ap- plies to both.


The League will present a cup to the winning girls' team this year. The cup for the champion boys' team comes from an outside source.


Mr. Gay is Academy coach for the boys, Miss Smith for the girls. The referees are Mr. Markham and Mr. Ratchin, the same as last year.


Pro Merito Society and Tadmuck Club


The following members of the class of 1930 were elected to mem- bership in the Pro Merito Society: Elizabeth Nesmith, Sadie Sudak, Concetta Succo, Thomas Costello.


The honorary members of the Tadmuck Club from the class of 1931 are Phyllis Hal land Marjorie Wilson.

Latin Summer School


Mr. Roudenbush conducted an elementary class in Latin from July 7 to August 1, 1930, for those pupils who had failed in the subject the previous year. A written examination was given at the close of the sessions, those who passed being allowed to continue in September with the second year class.


Student Government


Following the Christmas vacation, a plan of student government was inaugurated, which will be given a fair trial with the hope that it will prove a success.


The following officers were elected by the school in general as- sembly:


Mayor


Richard Tuttle, '31


Aldermen,


Harold Wright, '31


Jeanne Dumont, '31


Edgar Peterson, '31


Joseph Ackerman, '31


Peter Denisevich, '31


George Reeves, '31


Judges,


Phyllis Hall, '31


Robert Bettencourt, '32


Clerk of Court, (Appointed by Judges)


Frederick Delaney, '31


The above officials constitute the Student Council which will act with the faculty in matters pertaining to the welfare of the school.


Besides the officials mentioned, there is a Traffic Squad appointed by the Mayor and Aldermen, whose duties are concerned chiefly with supervision of the halls and basements.


The details of the student government plan will be worked out gradually according to the nature of the problems which arise. Before the system was put into operation, an unanimous vote was taken by the school to accept it.


Time alone will prove the practicability of the experiment. If every pupil is sincere in his declaration. we. may look for excellent results.


The high school orchestra, under the direction of Mrs. Irene Weston, has rendered delightful assistance to many of our programs.


In conclusion, we would call attention to the program of the grad- uating exercises of June 25, 1930, which follows this report. Therein are contained several matters of information not elsewhere mentioned.


Respectfully submitted,


WILLIAM C. ROUDENBUSH, Principal of Westford Academy.

CLASS SONG (Tune of Juanita) I


High school days are o'er And now on Commencement days, We are here once more


Our farewells to say.


Through four years we've been here,


Tried so hard to play the game,


And we'll not forget thee For the years to come.


CHORUS


Westford, Oh Westford! Our school days we'll not forget Westford, Oh Westford! The many friends we've met.


II Life lies before us,


Days of work, and play, and tears,


Life lies before us


Bearing hopes and fears


And we'll not forget thee As the years go by,


Happy days we've had here


With our schoolmates dear.


-Luba Worobey.

REPORT OF SUPERVISOR OF MUSIC


Mr. Sylvester, Supt. of Schools,


Dear Sir:


Following is my report as Supervisor of Music:


During the past year we have put on several concerts and enter- tainments, some of them being in the nature of a tercentenary celebra- tion.


At the High School gymnasium the Frost School gave a very creditable performance of the operetta, "Mother Goose." Practically every child in the school took some part in this concert.


In May, Cameron School presented, on the school grounds, the pageant-cantata "The Courtship of Miles Standish." The cantata was excellently sung by grades 6, 7, 8, and the various drills, Indian dances, etc., were done by the lower grades. Sargent School gave this same cantata at their graduation exercises in June.


At Christmas Cameron School gave a pleasing entertainment in Abbot Hall, which was open to the public. All the schools held a con- cert in their rooms at that time.


Memorial Day the entire schools of the town took part in the exercises. At the Civil War monument Billy Prescott sang the "Faded Coat of Blue," with the chorus by grades 7-8. At the World War Monument the entire group of children, numbering about 800, sang "The Stars and Stripes Forever," accompanied by the Abbot Band. Grades seven and eight, Cameron School, sang two songs at the exer- cises in the Town Hall, and Sargent School repeated the patriotic drill of a year ago, by request. This drill was directed by Miss Lillian Wright and Miss Gertrude Provost.


The High School Glee Club presented an exceptionally fine pro- gram of music at the graduation exercises in June. This Glee Club, organized less than a year, rendered the following selections:


1. Sanctus, "St. Cecelia's Mass." Gounod, Bernice Hall, Soprano. Miss Precious, Violinist.


2. Twilight-Rudolph Friml-Selected Group.


3. Serenade-Shubert-Glee Club.


I am very sorry to add that lack of time in the High School curri- culum prevents the continuance of such a "well-worth-while" organ- ization.


Harmonica Bands in the upper grades, and Rhythm Bands in the lower. grades are an established part of our music work.


23


The radio at Cameron School, which is owned by them as the result of several concerts, has been used to great advantage by the pupils. Programs have come to them over the Columbia "School of the Air," and have included lectures in English, Literature and Art. On Friday mornings we hear the Music Appreciation Hour with Walter Damrosh.


In closing this report I wish to express my appreciation to the teachers and superintendent for their co-operation.


"Music For Every Child.


Every Child For Music."


Respectfully,


DAISY P. PERRY.

REPORT OF SCHOOL PHYSICIAN


Gentlemen of the Committee:


Following is my report as medical inspector of the schools of Westford, for the year ending December 31, 1930:


The customary examinations show a marked improvement from year to year, in the general health and hygienic conditions of the children.


Infectious or contagious diseases are not found so often in the class rooms, as of preceding years. Co-operation of the parents in this matter would practically eliminate all such conditions, by being careful not to send children to school with any questionable disorders, without first, carefully investigating the sickness.


At the present time, there is the best of feeling of the parents and children with the nurse and physician, in their endeavors to correct conditions pertaining to their general health.


I hope and trust they will still continue to assist those interested, in their many duties for the general good and welfare of these children.


Respectfully submitted,


DR. C. A. BLANEY, School Physician.
