NEEDED FOR PUBLIC EDUCATION 1951


The budget adopted by your school committee and submitted to the Finance Committee calls for $172,281.28. This represents an increase over the amount requested in 1950 of $34,848.28. May we list the five major reasons for this increase:


1. Continued increase in pupil enrollment in grades one through nine requiring additional teachers.


2. Additional pay increases to school personnel.


3. Anticipated major repairs.


4. Anticipated new equipment needed to open school September 1952.


5. Increase of tuition costs to the City of Springfield of approxi- mately $11,000.00.


Your school committee wishes to draw to the attention of the towns- people the fact that the town of Wilbraham received $41,807.98 as state aid toward the support of its schools for the fiscal year 1951. This was an increase of $7,106.86 above the amount estimated in December 1951. The net cost to the town for the support of its schools during the fiscal year 1951 is $97,321.25. The following is an excerpt from our report of last year: "Your school committee is not in a position at this time to give any definite data as to what is being saved by the education of children in grades seven through nine in the town of Wilbraham. This information will be available to the townspeople with the completion of the present school year when a true comparison of exact costs will be completed." Your school com- mittee is now in a position to give the townspeople this valued infor- mation. At the close of June 1951 our financial records showed that it cost the town of Wilbraham $14,551.60 to operate the Junior High School in the town of Wilbraham, exclusive of transportation for the school year 1950-1951. There were 100 pupils attending Junior High Schools last year. If these pupils had been to Junior High School in the City of Springfield for the school year 1950-1951 it would have cost the town of Wilbraham $220.00 per pupil for their education or a total of $22,000.00 exclusive of transportation. The difference


81


SCHOOL COMMITTEE REPORT (Continued) Needed for Public Education 1951 (Continued)


between this $22,000.00 and the $14,551.60 that it cost to educate the children in the town of Wilbraham which is $7,448.40 is the amount of money the town saved by having its own Junior High School dur- ing the school year 1950-1951. Your committee feels that this saving will continue to increase over the years to come.


The school population is growing so rapidly that it has become necessary for your committee to discuss this problem with your town representative. We suggest that to get a clearer picture of the ever- growing school problems, careful study be given to the report sub- mitted by your Superintendent of Schools.


Members of the committee wish to thank the townspeople for their continued support. It is our desire that your schools maintain high standards for your children and may we suggest that you visit the schools often.


Respectfully submitted, JOHN W. GALE, Chairman HELEN A. REID DORRANCE GREEN Members of the School Committee


Report of the Superintendent of Schools


To the School Committee of the town of Wilbraham:


My sixth annual report as Superintendent of Schools for the town of Wilbraham is submitted herewith:


Superintendency Union No. 15


Superintendency Union No. 15 is composed of the towns of East Longmeadow, Hampden, and Wilbraham. The duties of the union as a whole are to select the Superintendent of Schools, special teach- ers and supervisors, and the union secretaries. The school nurse is engaged separately by the individual towns. The cost of the Elemen- tary Supervisor is met by the towns in proportion to the amount of time the supervisor is able to give each town in the union. At the present time, this expense is met as follows: East Longmeadow, 45 per cent, Hampden, 20 per cent, and Wilbraham, 35 per cent. The Superintendent's salary is proportioned as follows: East Long- meadow, 55 per cent, Hampden, 10 per cent, and Wilbraham, 35 per cent. The expenses of the Superintendency Union which include the secretaries' salaries and maintenance of the Superintendent's office are paid in proportion by these towns as follows: East Longmeadow, 45 per cent, Hampden, 20 per cent, and Wilbraham, 35 per cent. The above percentages became effective July 1, 1951. Previous to that date, the percentages that each town paid were as follows: East Longmeadow, 45 per cent, Hampden, 14 per cent, and Wilbraham, 41 per cent. The percentages are based mainly on the number of teachers each town employs in proportion to the number of teachers in the whole school union. This past September the town of East Longmeadow increased its teaching staff from eighteen teachers to thirty-three teachers. The percentages vary from year to year due to the uneven growth of pupil enrollment in the towns.


Mrs. Ruth G. Backus was appointed Elementary Supervisor for Superintendency Union No. 15 for the school year 1951-1952. Mrs. Backus has had experience teaching in rural schools, in urban schools, and in remedial work. For the past three years she has served as


82


REPORT OF SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS (Cont.)


the remedial teacher in the Wilbraham schools. Her work has re- ceived high commendation from many sources. The duties of the Elementary Supervisor are to organize and supervise the elementary school program, offering helpful suggestions wherever possible. These duties have previously been performed by the Superintendent of Schools but due to the increase in the number of classrooms to be supervised, his time is too limited to enable him to now discharge them effectively.


Due to the increase in pupil enrollment, the employment of two art supervisors and two music supervisors in Superintendency Union No. 15 has become necessary. Wilbraham and Hampden together employ one art supervisor and one music supervisor, while the town of East Longmeadow employs one of each. The salary for the art supervisor is proportioned as follows: Wilbraham, 70 per cent, and Hampden, 30 per cent. The salary of the music supervisor is pro- portioned as follows: Wilbraham, 80 per cent, and Hampden, 20 per cent. The above percentages are based on the amount of time each supervisor is able to give each town.


Changes in School Personnel


Mrs. Madelyn M. Wood, teacher of Grade I at The Pines School, Mrs. Madelyn H. Barber, teacher of Grade II at the Memorial School, and Mrs. Pearl P. Chouffet, teacher of English and social studies at the Memorial Junior High School left the Wilbraham school system at the close of the school year 1950-1951.


Mrs. Liane S. Fontaine, supervisor of music in the Wilbraham schools and who has served in the Wilbraham school system for approximately twenty years, declined the offer to become music supervisor for the towns of Wilbraham and Hampden to accept a full time music supervisorship for the town of East Longmeadow. May we express our appreciation to Mrs. Fontaine in behalf of the citizens of the town of Wilbraham, members of the school committee, and the teaching staff for all that she has done for the boys and girls who have attended the Wilbraham schools.


It became necessary due to health conditions for Miss Marilyn E. Stone to resign her position as teacher of English and social studies at the Wilbraham Junior High School for the school year 1951-1952 effective November 16, 1951. Up to this moment we have been unable to fill this vacancy. Further information on the present teaching staff may be obtained by referring to the "List of Wilbraham Teach- ers and Other Employees" at the end of this report.


Repairs


During the calendar year 1951, the major repairs at The Pines School consisted of renovating the large hallway to make provision for a small kitchen in order that hot lunches could be served to the children, complete painting of three classrooms in pastel colors, in- stallation of venetian blinds in two classrooms, erecting a section of the present fence about the school, and beginning the remaking of the new lawn in front of the school. Minor repairs were made within the building.


At the Memorial School there were no major repairs for the year 1951. Minor repairs were completed within the building.


As the town of Wilbraham will be using the Springfield Street School during the school year 1952-1953, it became necessary to paint the outside of the building. It will be necessary to do more interior repairs during the summer of 1952 to have this building ready for occupancy September 1, 1952.

REPORT OF SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS (Cont.)


Parent-Teacher Association


This report would not be complete if we did not mention to the town of Wilbraham the splendid work which is being carried on by the Parent-Teacher Associations of the two schools. Their cooperation and help is ever present.


This year there has been a new Parent-Teacher Association formed at The Pines School. We feel certain that much value will be gained by The Pines through the cooperation of this association. Its sup- port in helping to initiate the hot lunch program at The Pines School was greatly appreciated.


Junior High School


September, 1950, was the beginning of a junior high school in the town of Wilbraham. Your Superintendent of Schools has previously reported that he felt having a junior high school in the town of Wil- braham would further help the children of the town in offering the many facilities which were not available at that time as well as save the town a substantial sum of money over a long period of time. This has been confirmed in your report. We feel quite sure that these savings will continue to increase over the years to come. May we suggest that you read the report submitted by Mr. Irving H. Agard, Jr., principal of the Memorial School, which is included at the end of this report.


School Enrollment


To be able to predict school enrollment in the town of Wilbraham for the coming five years would be something of value. This, however, we are not able to do. When the present Memorial School Building was built, it was anticipated that it would relieve the congested school enrollment for years to come. As was shown in the 1950 school census and the 1951 school census, the school population of the town of Wilbraham is continuing to grow. This growth is due largely to the migration of young parents to the town of Wilbraham. Accord- ing to the present figures available, this growth is going to continue for at least a few years to come. We submit for your study the fol- lowing charts which have been compiled since the October census was completed:

It would be of interest if the reader would refer to the report of the Superintendent of Schools as submitted in the 1950 annual report and compare the above charts with the ones which were sub- mitted at that time. For instance, it would be noted that in Septem-


84


REPORT OF SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS (Cont.)


ber, 1951 there was an anticipated enrollment in grades one through nine of five hundred twelve pupils. Actually in September, 1951 there were five hundred fifty-three pupils enrolled in the town of Wilbraham. It shows that the anticipated enrollment in September, 1952 was five hundred seventy-two pupils. As noted above, this figure has increased to a now anticipated six hundred thirty pupils. The above chart again shows a continuing increase for the next five years. In 1955, the estimated enrollment as of September first has increased from seven hundred forty-seven pupils to an estimated enrollment of eight hundred fifty-one pupils. This creates another major problem for the townspeople of Wilbraham as there are only a given number of classrooms in the present buildings. The standard average class- room enrollment is from twenty-five to thirty pupils. There are en- rolled at the present time in many of our classrooms a number exceeding this average. We might add that beginning September, 1952 there will be enough children in grade seven to warrant two classrooms for that grade. In September, 1953, there will be a need for two classrooms for pupils enrolled in grade seven and two class- rooms for the pupils enrolled in grade eight. In September, 1954, there will be a need for two classrooms to take care of the enrollment in grade seven, two classrooms to take care of the enrollment in grade eight, and two classrooms to take care of the enrollment in grade nine. May we present the following table to show the anticipated classroom space needed for the junior high school during the next seven years. We are using the seven year period as this chart will be based on the exact number of pupils who are now attending the Wilbraham schools. It does not allow for any increase during the years to come. We do, however, include the anticipated enrollment in grade one for the school year 1952-1953 in this chart. We have allowed in this chart one extra room for the use of junior high school pupils as such a room is necessary if we are to operate an efficient junior high school program.

After studying the above chart one can easily see that there will be a constant increase in the enrollment over the next seven years. This increase demands classroom space which at the present time is not available. It should be noted that the above chart does not in- clude pupils who are not registered in the school at this time with the exception of those who will be attending grade one in September, 1952, nor is there included a room for home economics or a room for industrial arts. Your Superintendent of Schools feels that if we are to have a well-rounded junior high school program provision should be made for some vocational training, classical training, and cultural training. As was reported in the 1950 report of the Super- intendent of Schools, the elementary enrollment is increasing at a rapid rate. Referring to the previous school census chart, it can easily be seen that there will be a need for four first grades during


85


REPORT OF SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS (Cont.)


the school year 1952-1953. This increase can be taken care of during the school year 1952-1953 by utilizing the Springfield Street School, and by using the auditorium or the cafeteria as a temporary junior high school classroom. However, beginning September, 1953, there will not be enough classrooms in the town of Wilbraham to house all the children attending grades one through six any more than there will be enough classrooms to house the junior high school pupils. The following table will show the anticipated needed class- rooms for grades one through six during the coming five year period based on the last census taken October 1, 1951.

A careful study of the above chart shows a constant need for class- room space to house children attending grades one through six. If this chart were compared to the one submitted in the 1950 report of the Superintendent of Schools, it will be noted that the classroom needs have increased over and above the number estimated at that time. May we present the following chart to show the over-all class- room space needed for all children attending the Wilbraham schools in grades one through nine.

With the exception of the grand total column marked with two asterisks, this chart is based on a classroom enrollment of thirty or more pupils.


The above chart gives the over-all picture of the classroom space that will be needed in the Wilbraham schools during the next five years not including classroom space for home economics or indus- trial arts. It should be noted that at the present time the classroom space available is twenty-one rooms. A breakdown by buildings follows :
