Since September, 1950 when with 87 pupils, the Memorial Junior High School was established, a continued effort has been made to strengthen and improve the course of study and develop a strong teaching staff. The educational and practical reasons for a depart- mentalized program are (1) grouping of pupils with like abilities, interests, and ambitions, and (2) utilizing specialized teaching per- sonnel efficiently. In order to operate efficiently and effectively, grade enrollment should approach a size whereby the specialized skills and abilities of staff members can be employed on a full-time basis.


In September, 1956, the enrollment in the junior high school was 267 pupils. The staff is extremely competent, well-trained, and ex- perienced. Specialized personnel have been secured to teach each of the major subjects, and five of the teachers have earned Master's Degrees in their fields. The classes are divided on a basis of ability and grouped as to interest and future plans. Class size and instruc- tional materials are organized and planned to make efficient use of the staff and to provide a stimulating education situation.


With the improvement of the academic program, the conduct of the pupils and the citizenship outlook of the student group has improved. The training, quality, and attitude of the staff is reflected in the pupils' desire to make a success of their academic work. Achievement tests, aptitude tests, and individual counseling, has enabled the pupils to make a correct selection in choosing their high

school program. The grades received by our high school pupils and the letters from the high school principals show a continued im- provement in the preparation our pupils are receiving in the Memo- rial Junior High School.


Mr. Lincoln A. Dexter, Principal, has directed the growth and improvement of the junior high school. His careful supervision, insistence on improving standards, and patient counseling of teach- ers and pupils, combined with his strong stand on discipline, have resulted in a better educational opportunity for the pupils.


Each year, as new teachers are added to the staff, the most impor- tant need is to rapidly integrate them into the working educational philosophy of the Wilbraham schools. Most beginning teachers are determined to become good teachers but they need assistance in acquiring the basic methods and procedures of the local situation. Starting in September, 1956, Mrs. Therese A. Bailey was assigned as elementary supervisor in addition to her remedial work. Much of the success achieved by the seven new elementary teachers is the result of her careful guidance and suggestions. The continued increase in pupil enrollment and the nation-wide teacher shortage make such a program of in-service teacher training necessary if the Wilbraham pupils are to continue to receive a sound basic educa- tion. The success of the Wilbraham Schools is dependent on secur- ing good teachers and developing in them the attitudes and abilities best suited to the needs of this community.


In handwriting, as in all basic skills taught in the elementary grades, the need to establish a uniform method and standard of proficiency is necessary. The Rinehart system, as used for many years in Wilbraham depended on the training and individual skill of each classroom teacher. With seven new teachers joining the staff in September, there developed a need for training the classroom teachers in the Rinehart method and supervising the classroom teaching of handwriting. Mrs. Millicent G. Green, Princi- pal of the Springfield Street School, in addition to being an out- standing elementary teacher, has an unequaled ability in handwriting and teaching the Rinehart system. Following her teaching of a very successful in-service course in handwriting for the local staff, Mrs. Green was named Handwriting Supervisor for the Wilbraham Schools. On a regular schedule, she visits each classroom and teaches a handwriting lesson, corrects the papers, and assists the teacher in the development of good handwriting practices. The in-service training of the staff continues in regular afterschool meetings.


For several years, Wilbraham has needed a teacher and facilities to provide the specialized training needed for those pupils unable to compete successfully in the regular program. In September, with Mrs. Merilis M. Scott certified by the Division of Special Education of the Department of Education, a special class was established. A highly concentrated program of remedial help and a schedule of associated manual and physical activities was developed to assist these pupils and create usable skills and abilities. This program already shows promise of becoming of great value to the school system. Combined with the extensive testing program and full co- operation of the parents, these children will benefit greatly by this special help and attention.


With the additional classes, it was no longer possible to schedule visits in each room for the art and music supervisors. Wilbraham is extremely fortunate in having Mrs. Esther L. Johnson, an ex- perienced elementary teacher, with a strong background in elemen- tary art and music. Under the direction of Mrs. Helen B. Tower and Mr. Dwight D. Killam, Mrs. Johnson was assigned to teach art and music in the primary grades. The program has been successful because of the complete cooperation and united efforts of all mem-

bers of the staff. The results, as demonstrated by the pupils' activity and achievement, are a credit to Mrs. Johnson and her willingness to accept this assignment.


The opening of the new Stony Hill School and the forty days of double session classes preceding its opening taxed the patience and endurance of all the personnel involved. Mr. Robert D. Bengle and the teachers at The Pines School cooperated outstandingly with the teachers of the afternoon session. Throughout the trying period they continued to conduct the educational program which is tradi- tional at The Pines School.


Mr. Richard J. Curry and his staff not only conducted the after- noon half of the double session program but at the same time accomplished the setting up of the new school and the moving of all the textbooks and instructional materials. The complete move was carried out with a minimum of loss in instructional time. Be- cause of the willingness of the staff, it was completed at no cost to the community.


The employment of clerical assistance to handle the details of the cafeteria and preparation of instructional material for the teach- ers at the Springfield Street School, The Pines, and Stony Hill School has proven of great value. This is the same assistance that the Memorial School teachers have had for several years.


The School Lunch program continues, as over the past several years, to operate successfully and smoothly with the competent direc- tion of Mrs. May Jenkins. The new kitchen at Stony Hill School, expertly designed and equipped, provided the facilities to operate this program more efficiently. Food for The Pines School and Springfield Street School is prepared at the Stony Hill School and transported in Thermos containers.


The pupil participation in the school lunch program continues at a high level. A comparison of the figures in the table below indicates the continued growth.

The school health program, in addition to the regularly scheduled physical examinations included the polio vaccination clinics under the direction of the Board of Health. The assistance of Dr. John Sigsbee, Mrs. Doris Low, Mrs. Madeline Howe, Miss Christine Clark, Miss Rose Brackinisky, and several of the ninth grade pupils, in addition to Dr. Goodwin and Mrs. Horacek of the school staff made this extensive public service possible.

The public schools start 1957 with the school plant and equipment in excellent condition. We are most fortunate in having a loyal, conscientious custodial staff. The present investment in buildings and equipment requires constant maintenance and upkeep if major replacements and repairs are to be prevented. Probably the greatest single asset the staff has, even more important than their consider- able skill and experience, is the pride which they have in the appear -. ance and condition of the schools.


In September, with the acceptance of new three-year transporta- tion contracts by the school committee, a highly desirable change in the scheduling of the bus routes was made. By coordinating the requirements involved in transporting the high school pupils to Springfield, the increased pupil load in the local schools, and the location of the elementary schools in the community, a schedule was arranged that makes it possible for all pupils to arrive at the assigned schools just as classes begin and leave school at the time classes are dismissed. No longer do pupils wait thirty minutes at the school before and after classes. Though the actual time spent away from home is actually less for many elementary pupils, the teaching time has been increased.


This past year I have been privileged to meet regularly with the Educational Conference Study Committee, the School Building Com- mittee, the Regional Planning Committee, the Elementary Survey Committee, and the Hampden-Wilbraham Regional School District Committee. It is with pride that I review the accomplishments of these citizen groups. The complete support which the voters of this community gave these committees has provided a solution to the long range educational needs facing the Town of Wilbraham. The Board of Selectmen, the Finance Committee and all town depart- ments with the members of the Town Office staff have assisted the schools in the education of the children. This cooperation has made possible the orderly expansion of school facilities and services and is greatly appreciated.


The duties of the school committee include the development of educational policies and the direction of the operation of the public schools. The selection of committee members reflects the type of educational program the community desires to provide for the chil- dren. Over a period of years, the educational philosophy, academic standards, and long range plans of a school system are the results of the efforts and thinking of the committee members. The adminis- trative staff cannot improve the schools or even maintain acceptable standards unless the school committee wants and believes in good schools and will take a stand for good educational practices. The progress made in the Wilbraham schools over the past five years has been achieved through the efforts of you, the School Committee. Within the past year, the educational opportunities for the Wilbra- ham children have been improved through your adoption of a better salary schedule, additional supervisory and instructional personnel, additional educational areas and facilities, and better instructional equipment. It has been a stimulating experience to work with you.


As a result of a business transfer, Mrs. Louise D. Schatz has


48 A


REPORT OF THE SUPT. OF SCHOOLS (Continued)


resigned from the School Committee. The schools have lost a loyal, hard-working friend. Her five years of service have seen the devel- opment of the junior high school program and the addition of indus- trial arts, home economics, and exploratory business education pro- gram. Her belief in the advantages obtained by employing and retaining the best teaching personnel has assisted in the development of our present staff. Through her leadership of the Educational Conference, Mrs. Schatz brought the long range needs of the schools to the citizens of Wilbraham. With this conference, her ability to identify the problem and interest capable people in working towards a solution was ably demonstrated. The resulting regional high school vote and plans for additional elementary classrooms are a credit to her awareness of the problems facing the town. Throughout her term as a member of the Wilbraham School Committee, her belief in better schools was always tempered by her realization of the needs of the community as a whole. Each project Mrs. Schatz supported held the promise of long range value for the town. It is with great feeling of loss, not only professionally as it affects the schools, but also in losing a highly respected co-worker and friend that I wish Mrs. Schatz and her family the very best success in their new community.

Report of the Stony Hill School Building Committee


In spite of a delay caused mainly by the scarcity of labor, the Stony Hill Elementary School was ready for occupancy on Novem- ber 5, 1956. At this time seven of the eight rooms were put to use, and the committee gave the contractor a certificate of substantial completion. On the evening of November 14, the committee members were hosts to an estimated six hundred visiting townspeople.


When the school was nearing completion, it was damaged by vandalism to the amount of $1,500.00 of which $700.00 was for dam- age to glass, and $800.00 to other materials. For the former amount the contractor had to bear the loss. The latter, $800.00 was covered by insurance.


As this report was written, the committee was awaiting the completion of a few minor items and the releases from the sub- contractors according to the terms of the general contract before it can accept the building from Mr. Madigan and make final pay- ment.


On November 29, a public information meeting was held in Memo- rial School to discuss the architectural design of an addition to the Stony Hill School.


The committee is now proceeding with plans for this addition con- sisting of twelve classrooms and a general purpose room. An archi- tect, Mr. Warren H. Ashley of West Hartford, has been engaged. Within a few days, final plans and specifications will be forwarded to the School Building Assistance Commission in Boston. It is ex- pected that these plans will be given final approval in time for them to be put out for bids not later than March 1.
