PROGRESS ON THE NEW SCHOOL BUILDING
Progress on the new school has been very satisfactory. This has been partly due to the unusual weather in the first part of the winter. At this time there is every indication that the school will be ready for occupancy this coming September. Those who visit the site will be impressed with both the size and quality of the construction.
Present plans call for the use of eleven rooms out of the twelve this year. It is anticipated that there will be two first and two sec- ond grades and one each of the other seven, including the ninth grade. This means that we will be educating the ninth grade this year at a tuition cost of $175.00 per year per pupil instead of the $220.00 which we now pay to Springfield.
Since our transportation is being completely restudied and because there is a duplication of the first six grades in both schools, it will be necessary to reroute our buses and possibly reallocate some of our pupils for classes of satisfactory enrolment. Plans are being formu-

Progress on New School Building (Continued)
lated to operate a Hot Lunch Program in the new school where pro- visions have been made to carry on this program. It is hoped that the townspeople will see fit to make similar facilities available at The Pines school at a very early date so that all of our children will enjoy this important phase of our school program.
A great deal of effort will be required in equipping the new school for satisfactory operation. There may be some delays in obtaining all of the items for full scale operation of the cafeteria and some of the junior high courses. We hope the townspeople will bear with us during our reorganization period if such problems arise.

Superintendent's School Report
To the School Committee of the Town of Wilbraham:
My fourth annual report as superintendent of schools in the town of Wilbraham is submitted herewith.
Superintendency Union No. 16
Superintendency Union No. 16 is composed of three towns, East Longmeadow, Wilbraham, and Hampden. The duties of the union as a whole are to select the superintendent of schools and the union secretary. The supervisor of art, the supervisor of music, and the school nurse, although serving the union, are engaged separately by the individual towns. The cost of supervision in art, music, and health is met by the towns in proportion to the amount of time each one of the respective supervisors is able to give to each town; whereas expense of the superintendency, which includes the superintendent's salary, the secretary's salary, and the maintenance of the superin- tendent's office, is paid by these towns as follows: East Longmeadow, 45% ; Wilbraham, 35%; Hampden, 20%. These percentages will prob- ably vary within a year or two, as the school population in East Longmeadow and Wilbraham has increased to a marked degree.
Changes in School Personnel
There were only two changes in the faculty personnel in the Wilbraham schools in June, 1949. Mrs. Lorraine Ide, teacher of third grade at The Pines school, resigned to accept a teaching position in the East Longmeadow school system. Miss Jean Roberts, teacher of first grade, resigned to accept a teaching position in the Springfield public schools. Mrs. Esther L. Johnson, graduate of Westfield State Teachers College, was employed to fill the vacancy created by the resignation of Mrs. Lorraine Ide. Mrs. Johnson has had previous teaching experience in the towns of Becket, Wilbraham, and Hamp-
71
SUPERINTENDENT'S SCHOOL REPORT (Continued)
den. Mrs. Madelyn M. Wood, a graduate of the University of New Hampshire, was employed to fill the vacancy created by the resig- nation of Miss Jean Roberts.
It was felt that a need existed for special teaching for a number of children who were finding their work extremely difficult. Mrs. Ruth G. Backus, a graduate of Framingham State Teachers College, was employed as a remedial teacher to carry on this work. She had previously taught in the towns of Granville, Agawam, Wilbraham, and Hampden. However, when school opened in September, it was found necessary to have three first grade teachers instead of two as in past years. Therefore, it became necessary to assign Mrs. Backus to teach first grade instead of carrying out the remedial program as planned.
Those who are now teaching at The Pines school are as follows: Mrs. Madelyn M. Wood, Grade 1; Mrs. Ruth G. Backus, Grade 1; Miss Marion L. Holland, Grade 2; Mrs. Esther L. Johnson, Grade 3; Miss Helen S. Kochanek, Grades 4 and 5; Mrs. Pearl P. Chouffet, Grades 7 and 8; Miss Marion E. Kelley, principal and teacher of Grades 7 and 8. There is no sixth grade at The Pines school this year. Because of the need for additional classrooms, it seemed feas- ible to transport the sixth grade pupils to the North Wilbraham . school.
The following teachers at the North Wilbraham school are: Mrs. Agnes C. Coote, Grade 4; Mrs. Stasia K. Lavoie, Grade 5; Mrs. Mary G. Logan, principal and teacher of Grade 6.
The teachers teaching at the Springfield Street school are: Mrs. Clara B. Merrill, Grade 1; Mrs. Marguerite G. Brady, Grade 2; Mrs. Millicent G. Green, principal and teacher of Grade 3.
Teacher-Parent Institute
The second Teacher-Parent Institute for Superintendency Union No. 16 was held in the Pleasant View school auditorium, East Long- meadow, on Friday, October 7, 1949. It was the good fortune of the teachers to be able to enjoy a program this year around the theme "Reading and Arithmetic in a Modern Elementary School." Much help was gained by parents as well as teachers from this well- attended institute. It is hoped that if it is possible to continue to sponsor these programs, arrangements can be made in some way whereby more parents and friends of the school will be able to attend.
Pupil Enrolment and Classroom Facilities
Based on the continued increase in pupil enrolment in the schools of the town of Wilbraham it is anticipated that the classrooms will be allocated as follows on September 1, 1950 : Grade 1, 3 rooms; Grade 2, 3 rooms; Grade 3, 2 rooms; Grade 4, 2 rooms; Grade 5, 2 rooms; Grade 6, 2 rooms; Grades 7, 8, and 9, 4 rooms. This shows that there will be an anticipated need for eighteen classrooms beginning September, 1950, according to the present educational program. The new building will relieve the congestion which now exists.

The above tables show that the school population is continuing to increase. The impact of this continued gradual increase will be felt to a more marked degree around September, 1956.
The closing of the North Wilbraham school and the Springfield Street school and the sending of these children to the new school building now under construction along with those children attending Grades 7 and 8 at The Pines school should promote greater efficiency in the conduct of our schools. One improvement for which we are hoping is a vastly improved transportation schedule. The discontinu- ance of the shuttle bus which now carries children to and from the North Wilbraham school and the Springfield Street school will be a forward step. Your school committee is extremely anxious to restudy the existing transportation problems in the hope of making improve- ments wherever possible. We feel that the strategic location of the new school will eliminate many of these problems.
State Aid
The town of Wilbraham has been receiving from the state $676.66 per year as a reimbursement toward the salary of the superintendent of schools. Beginning November, 1949, the town of Wilbraham will receive from the state as a reimbursement approximately $1,306 toward the salary of the superintendent of schools. Legislation cov- ering this increase in state reimbursement was passed during the last legislative session.
Repairs
Only minor repairs have been made at the North Wilbraham school and the Springfield Street school as without doubt these build- ings will not be occupied by school children in September, 1950.
Repairs at The Pines school include the removing of slate from the back of the classrooms and replacing the same with bulletin boards; painting the outer entrances to the building; sanding and refinishing all floors; sanding and refinishing the tops of two hun-
73
SUPERINTENDENT'S SCHOOL REPORT (Continued)
dred desks; the covering of a section of the school yard with Col- provia in order that the children might have a place to play in inclement weather; and the resurfacing of the macadam road around the school.
We wish to thank Mr. William M. North, superintendent of streets, for his interest in the Wilbraham schools. It was through his cooperation that the school committee was able to get the resur- facing of the road and playground at The Pines school done at so reasonable a figure.
May we express our appreciation to Mr. Charles Lapine for his many years of conscientious service to the town of Wilbraham.
The fine work that is being done by Mr. Patrick Fitzgerald, Mr. Henry Hyde, and Mr. John Polaczak, building custodians, is greatly appreciated. They are faithful in the performance of their tasks.
May we thank Dr. Arthur H. Goodwin, school physician, and Dr. Irving P. Dinneen, school dentist, for the fine work which they are doing in the school in relation to our present health program.
Since the last report of the superintendent of schools Mrs. Esther S. Preston, a cherished member of our school committee, has retired. after having served for six years. Her keen interest in the welfare of the children of Wilbraham was ever present. We wish her to know that her services were deeply appreciated by the community.
The schools are yours. Parents and friends are ever welcome to visit the teachers as well as the classes. The interests of the chil- dren guide the school program. Your visits and constructive sugges- tions serve as a stimulus and guide. Visit them frequently.
The many courtesies extended to me during the past year by the school committee, teaching faculty, pupils, parents, and friends have been deeply appreciated.
Respectfully submitted,
HAROLD A. TRUELL, Superintendent of Schools

No weighing has been done this fall. All of the children were weighed in the spring - findings, no loss in weight. Today we do not think in terms of underweight, but rather child is gaining or losing.
Because of the prevalence of poliomyelitis, it has been difficult to make appointments for tonsilectomies during the summer, but arrangements were made for three during the year.
Six children had the benefit of four weeks vacation at Camp Frederick Edwards, gaining from one-half to four and one- quarter pounds, or a total gain of sixteen pounds. All were given the Patch test and were x-rayed and found negative. At the time of physical examinations state literature on pos- ture, feet, vitamins and minerals was distributed where the doctor found it necessary.
