REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE.


One more year in the history and working power of our Com- mon School system has passed, and brings the inhabitants of the town to the point where again provision is to be made for the constantly recurring necessities of the future.


The close of the municipal year is an appropriate season to take a retrospective view of the past, and consider what im- provement can be made for the elevation and prosperity of the town. The intellectual and moral condition of children and youth, present claims of the highest order upon the serious and candid attention of all ; for in this is seen and written an index, not only of the present general character of the people, but also what will be the characteristic state of society in years follow- ing, according to the present judicious and proper moral and intellectual culture of the young. Hence the solicitude and in- terest with which each term of the public schools is invested. It is, indeed, no merely personal or party affair. It involves, in no small sense, the future prosperity and happiness of our children, and alike the peace, the honor and safety of the com- munity in all its varied material, social and governmental in- terests. In submitting, therefore, a detailed report of the pro- gress and condition of the several public schools, your Committee cannot be insensible of the fact, that whatever we may declare respecting their success or failure, the real evidence and sub- stance itself is with the people, who have been and are now in- terested in cach particular instance, and consequently have to some extent formed their opinions according to the feeling and impulse of a more or less mature judgment, and viewed from many varied and different points of observation. Now the fruit and real merit of a successful school should not be limited to what is only and alone committed to memory, but is to be found


13


in the improved and enlarged mental capacities of the scholar, which secures to him the power of concentrated thought, by which only he can clearly comprehend the rules given for his guidance and properly apply them. Another important feature in the success of a school is to be found in the attention given to deportment and manners. Respectful deportment and genial manners on the part of children are bright ornaments in a school, which nothing else can supply, to which must be added the indispensable security coming from a keen moral sensibility which will enable them safely to discriminate between right and wrong in matters regulating their conduct one toward another. These particulars, which should mark the progress of our chil- dren's education, should not be ignored by indulgent parents, or lightly passed over by the simple flattery of the public voice.


The judicious teacher, who is alive to the actual interests that surround his position, will seek to implant in the mind of his scholar those essential elements which constitute the foundation of an elevating and progressive education. And here we can say, that it has been our good fortune to receive the services of teachers who have combined in a good degree the faculty for imparting instruction, and at the same time commanding defer- ential respect from their pupils. The general subordination witnessed in all our schools is gratifying, and meets the ap- proval of the Committee. The progress made in all the branches taught throughout all the schools, has been encourag- ing ; in some of them, we doubt if it ever has been surpassed.


Centre District School.


MRS. SARAH F. SLEEPER, Teacher, both terms. Summer Term,-Whole number of scholars, 37: .. Average attendance. 30.


Winter Term,-Whole number of scholars. 28. .. Average attendance. 22.


Length of both terms, 6 3-5 months.


14


MRS. SLEEPER possesses many natural qualities, united with a thorough education and much practical experience, which con- stitutes her a very efficient teacher. The government and arrangement of her school was excellent. Order in each class and in every department seemed to be easily maintained. On every occasion when the school was visited by the Committee, the scholars appeared studious and attentive, at the same time presenting an air of cheerfulness, life and activity which is always pleasant to witness. The closing examinations, which were well attended by the people of the district, showed a good degree of proficiency in the several branches taught. The Reading, especially, was much admired. Exercises in Compo- sition and Declamation were very good, and added much to the interest of the occasion.


We would here call the attention of the people in this dis- trict to the condition of their school-room, hoping that they will see the necessity of giving it a more cheerful and neat appear- ance before the commencement of another term.


East District School. MRS. E. B. PICKERING, Teacher, Summer Term.


Whole number of scholars, 36.


Average attendance, 28.


MISS REBECCA EAMES, Teacher, Winter Term.


Whole number of scholars, 39.


Average attendance, 25.


Length of both terms, 6 1-2 months.


MRS. PICKERING engaged in her work with a knowledge of the difficulties with which a teacher has to contend, and there- fore was not to be taken by surprise in the prosecution of the general duties of the school. Her success was most apparent with the classes in Geography, History, and the younger classes in Reading, all of which appeared well. The improvement made in Writing and Spelling was very good. There was not quite that attention given to Grammar and Arithmetic, particu- larly to the more advanced classes, that we should have been


15


glad to have seen. Still, considerable substantial improvement was gained.


The Winter term, under the skilful and wise direction of MIss EAMES, was productive of highly satisfactory results. The or- der was good and happily secured, making the relations between teacher and pupils evidently pleasant. The school manifested an unusual degree of energy and close application to study, which is highly creditable to teacher and scholars. Where this energy and application are found, there will be also a corres- ponding advancement, which is likely to be permanent. The closing examination, in the utter absence of any thing like mere show, was rendered throughout all its exercises very pleasant to the numerous and interested visitors in attendance, giving to all the idea that thoroughness and practical utility had been the successful and guiding motto of the teacher.


We much regret the unavoidable absence, on account of pro- tracted sickness, of several generally punctual scholars, which accounts for the low average attendance during the term.


West District School.


MISS H. JOSEPHINE SLEEPER, Teacher, Summer Term. Whole number of scholars, 24.


Average attendance, 16.


MISS LUCY SINGLEY, Teacher, Winter Term.


Whole number of scholars, 26.


Average attendance, 20.


Length of both terms, 6 1-4 months.


MISS SLEEPER possesses good literary attainments, and entered upon the discharge of her duties as teacher under quite favora- ble circumstances. The order and quietness that characterized the school when visited by the Committee was, for the most part, pleasant and creditable. Her success and diligence was made very apparent at the final examination, in nearly all the exercises of the school. The classes were generally prompt, and gave good recitations. Reading, Spelling and Writing were


16


allowed to receive more care than many teachers are willing to devote to these valuable and important exercises, which pro- duced results of no ordinary value to the scholars.


The Winter term, (not closed at the time of making up this report), under the care of MISS SINGLEY, we are happy to say is making good progress, and affords evidence of being a profit- able school. It has received several visits from the Committee, and on each occasion we were satisfied that the school was man- aged with commendable prudence and dignity. The essential qualities of order and decorum were prominent.


South District School.


MISS CAROLINE L. BRIGHAM, Teacher, both terms. Summer Term,-Whole number of scholars, 40.


Average attendance, 34.


Winter Term,-Whole number of scholars, 43.


Average attendance, 35.


Length of both terms, 7 1-4 months.


MISS BRIGHAM has performed her duties as teacher of this school with distinguished ability. Proof of her diligence and faithfulness is seen in each class of her school. The govern- ment was good, and the whole arrangement displayed much judgment and prudence. The improvement was great, and highly gratifying to all. It is seldom we see a school where the interest and advancement is so uniform through the classes. Miss B.'s reputation as a judicious and successful teacher, has been well established by the experience of several successive years of labor in our schools with marked success and general approbation. And yet, no year in the history of her teaching has been attended, as it appears to us, with so cheering and bril- liant results as the last.


17


North District School.


MISS NANCY D. HARNDEN, Teacher, both terms.


Summer Term,-Whole number of scholars, 47. 66 Average attendance, 40.


Winter Term,-Whole number of scholars, 34.


66 Average attendance, 29. Length of both terms, 7 months.


MISS HARNDEN was industrious and unwearied in her exer- tions to advance her scholars in each particular branch of study. She succeeded very well in governing the school, and securing the confidence and general respect of her scholars, and sccmed to manage the school with much caution and kindness. Many of the classes have gone over considerable ground ; some of them appeared well at the close of the Summer term. The Reading and Spelling was indeed very creditable. The exam- ination was well attended by parents and friends, and in many respects was quite interesting, although we regret to say there was not that point of accuracy and thoroughness that should be expected.


The Winter term, when visited by the Committee, has ap- peared to show a degree of activity and courage that was hope- ful. The final examination in several points was respectable. The recitations in History, Geography and Arithmetic indicated several good scholars. Writing, Spelling and Defining were evidently attended to with profit. Several Compositions read by the scholars, were written in very good taste, and showed thought. But still, in several cases there was not that fixed- ness of purpose and thoughtful attention given to the studies, that is absolutely necessary to insure a rich reward.


GENERAL REMARKS.


It is a noticeable and gratifying fact, that during the past year the average attendance has largely increased beyond that of last year, and all the School Registers show a less number of marks indicating tardiness, which is highly complimentary.


18


One hundred and eighty different scholars have been con- nected with our public schools the past year. Although all have not progressed as we would have desired, yet each scholar stands to-day at a higher intellectual point than ever before, of course varying with each individual. But who can measure the advance made ? Can mere monetary terms express it ? Can we calculate the advantage gained to these scores of youthful minds, by the reception of these newly-acquired ideas or en- larged faculties for further improvement ? Let the children know, then, that the coming years' studies are to be easier and pleasanter for every obstacle overcome in the past, remembering that by continued exertion positions of eminence and honorable usefulness may be attained. Let parents, with a wise and una- bated liberality support these schools, cheered by sentiments of noble Patriotism and genuine Progress.


Whoever considers Education in the light of cause and effect, cannot fail to see the necessity of making it conform to the wants of practical life. Observation and experience proclaim the folly and danger of cultivating the intellect to the neglect of the moral qualities. It is indispensably needful that these should be united and harmoniously trained and cultivated to- gether, in order to produce a permanent character, that will be in the highest sense honorable to the person and useful to soci- ety.


A sense of personal responsibility-a sacred regard for Truth in connection with all the cardinal virtues-should ever be in- fused into the youthful mind and heart by kind precept and alluring example, which would have a most decisive effect in preventing crime and elevating the tone of public morals. Nor should the minor virtues of gentleness, patience, and deferential regard to elders or superiors-a ready seeking of others' wel- fare-be lost sight of.


It is also scarcely less necessary that the young be imbued with the practical idea in themselves of usefulness ; that man- ual labor even for them is not degrading but elevating, and


19


possesses true dignity ; that society requires of each the prac- tice of intelligent industry, economy and frugality, and cheer- fully to perform, in some proper calling, his part in providing the means of honest and honorable subsistence, guarding with jealous care against the approach of intemperance, indolence, and kindred vices.


An occasional word from a beloved teacher to his pupil, in regard to duties and dangers, spoken in kindness at the appro- priate time, may be thoughtfully received and remembered with good and enduring results. Therefore, let teachers be selected who have a practical understanding of the nature of their work, and will labor with calm self-possession and firmness to culti- vate and develope all the ennobling faculties and powers which adorn the human mind and character.


Teachers who have been tried and proved successful, should not be set aside for any merely personal or petty consideration. Experiments in this matter are too often attended with serious and sad consequences. Let, then, experienced and thoughtful teachers be obtained for our schools, if possible, for such we need.


It is however, obvious, that sometimes the young and inexpe- rienced must begin their experiment, as others before them have begun ; but in all such cases, we respectfully suggest, the compensation should be less than that paid for those who have been proved skilful and competent.


With pride we remember that Wilmington has furnished many eminently successful teachers for other towns, and we sug- gest the propriety of availing ourselves of native talent when it can be obtained equally as well.


In closing this report we can but express, in behalf of the schools, the hope that for the coming year the people of the town and districts will act wisely in reference to this matter-that genuine benevolence and true friendship may characterize all their efforts in behalf of the young-knowing that they are not only acting for the present, but also for the future.


20


All of which is most respectfully submitted to the considera- tion of the inhabitants of Wilmington.
