The salaries of the teachers of Wilbrham have been in- creased over 50 per cent in the last two years. Teachers are now paid nine hundred, nine hundred fifty or one thou- sand dollars annually, according to experience, length of service, size of school, or character of position. The in- creases voted last Spring induced several competent teach- ers who otherwise would have gone elsewhere to remain another year in Wilbraham. The minimum of nine hun- dred dollars made it possible to fill all vacancies with nor- mal graduates or experienced teachers, though considerable difficulty was experienced in doing this. An anomalous condition with reference to teachers' salaries is found in the fact that the classes graduating from the normal schools in 1920 were so small and the bidding for the graduates so keen that many trained, experienced and successful teachers who were induced to continue this year in their old posi- tions are receiving less salaries than untried normal grad- uates of last June. Where a vacancy occurred this year it


53


was often filled with a less experienced teacher, to whom it was necessary to pay more than was offered the one who resigned. This condition will confront us next June. In my opinion it will be necessary to increase salaries or lose several of our good teachers. If they resign, to fill their positions it will be necessary to pay salaries that might have retained them.


The special commission on teachers' salaries appointed by the governor in its report recommends a considerable increase in the minimum salary and a raising of state re- imbursements on salaries from one hundred, one hundred fifty, and two hundred dollars per teacher to not less than two hundred fifty, three hundred, and three hundred fifty dollars respectively.


The High School Situation.


Wilbraham now has twenty-seven pupils in the Spring- field senior high schools; thirteen in the junior high school, and ten in the Ludlow high school. Their tuition at pres- ent rates amounts to $1170.00 per year, their transportation to approximately $2800.00. The sum, approximately $10,- 000.00, would mean a tax on the valuation of the Town of approximately five dollars on a thousand. The average for all school purposes for the state last year was $5.20. Un- der present conditions one-half the cost of tuition and the total charge for transportation estimated at $6565.00 for 1921 are refunded by the state. If the census of 1920 shows that the number of families in Wilbraham exceeds 500, as seems to me probable, then under existing law, state aid for high school tuition and transportation will cease; and the town unless specifically exempted by the department of education will be required to establish a high school. The town could not hope to maintain a high school to rank with those of Springfield. On the other hand the tuition rates at Springfield would be well nigh prohibitive if they must be met from the resources of local taxation. Further, it would be an unwise and wasteful educational policy for the state to force Wilbraham to establish a small, weak high school


56


when its pupils could be so well cared for in Springfield. Conditions have changed since the law requiring towns of 500 families to maintain a high school was passed. Such a town would not furnish pupils enough for an efficient modern high school. The town of Wilbraham should be interested in securing an amendment to the law both for local relief and as a matter of state educational policy.


Respectfully submitted,


FREDERIC A. WHEELER.


Report of School Medical Inspector


Wilbraham, Mass., December 31, 1920.


As Medical Inspector, I have visited all the schools three times during the year-that is, each term. At each visit I have separately inspected all pupils in attendance.


The condition of the children was so favorable at those inspections that no reinspection has been necessary. The calls of the teachers for special inspections have been but few.


Under the amendment, Acts of 1910, I have examined all applicants for employment, and have given health or age certificates to such children as I have found in suffi- ciently sound health and physically able to perform the work they intend to do. At the last inspection of the schools in September an American Red Cross nurse, accom- panied me. She has filed at the office of the School Com- mittee a card index indicating the physical condition of each and every child in attendance.
