Report of the School Board.
FOR THE YEAR ENDING FEBRUARY 15, 1905.
In accordance with established custom and in con- pliance with the provisions of law, we herewith submit our annual report of the condition of our public schools, together with such suggestions as occur to us may be worthy of the consideration of our citizens.
The annual meeting of the district was held March 12, 1904 and Mr. Warren P. Putnam was elected a member of the Board of Education for the term of three years. Organization of the Board was speedily effected, George E. Bales being elected chairman and treasurer and Miss Maria L. Moore, secretary, The most cordial relations have existed between the members of the school board, who at all times have been actuated by the single purpose to so discharge their duties as to secure the highest degree of efficiency in the work of our schools.
TEACHERS
-
It is not our purpose to comment upon our teachers in- dividually. Such a custom, once followed, we believe to be neither wise nor helpful. That the work of teachers is attended with different degrees of success is an accepted fact. It is not always a question of effort. A teacher may labor with the greatest fidelity and because of condi- tions over which she has no control, she meets with indif- ferent success. Parents are sometimes too exacting in
37
their requirements of a teacher. Discipline is absolutely essential to the success of any school. That proposition meets with general approval. It is when the teacher at- tempts to carry into effect what everyone acknowledges is necessary, that opposition is encountered. We bespeak for the teachers your sympathy and co-operation. They have the best interests of your children at heart and as they daily perform the exacting duties of their calling, give them an encouraging helpful word, and above all avoid criticism until assured of its necessity and wisdom. It is especially gratifying to the Board to be able to say that all our teachers are doing excellent work. In the village schools perfect harmony prevails and the teachers in the outside schools have also been faithful to their im- portant trust.
There have been no serious breaches of discipline during the year, on the whole we can commend the young people in our schools for a display of a spirit which is entirely to their credit.
HIGH SCHOOL
Our high school has been in competent hands during the past year. Prof. H H. Pratt and his efficient corps of assistants have done excellent work. We regret that the attendance has not been larger, but until parents are im- pressed with the advantages to be derived from their children pursuing such a course, the situation will not be remedied. Our high school is doing as satisfactory work as is being done by other schools of similar grade.
38
MUSIC
The board was fortunate in being able to secure a con- timiance of the services of Miss Jessie M. Hagar in the music department. Her work has been of the highest order and the degree of excellence attained by the pupils has been rema kable. Instruction in music has been given by Miss Hagar in all the schools and without exception the progress has been most satisfactory.
FINANCES
We are especially pleased at the financial report which we are able to submit for your consideration. A special effort was made to pay all outstanding claims and so far as known all demands against the district February 15, 1905, have been adjusted and there remains in the treas- ury unexpended $122.22. This result has been accom- plished by practicing the strictest economy in the various departments. As a natural consequence text books are needed and some necessary apparatus to aid the teachers in their work can be used to advantage.
SCHOOL BUILDINGS
The high school building is in the best of condition, due in no small degree to the efficiency of the Janitor. During the past year a change has been made in the heat- ing apparatus, introducing direct steam to a portion of the
39
building, which has been most satisfactory. There has been no interruption to the sessions of the schools because of insufficient heat, as has occurred in the previous win- ters and there has been no noticeable increase in the quantity of fuel consumed.
Several of the school buildings outside of the village are in need of repairs. The ceiling in the Davisville School must be replaced, the building at the Intervale needs re- shingling and some minor repairs are needed at the West school. We believe in keeping our school houses as at- tractive as possible, for it is not without influence upon the minds of the young.
SUPERVISORY DISTRICT
The question of uniting with other districts for the pur- pose of forming a supervisory district is again presented for your consideration at the annual district meeting. We have given the subject careful thought and the board is unanimously of the opinion that favorable action should be taken. To those unfamiliar with the law we would say that whenever such district is for red and a superin- tendant is employed, one half of the salary is paid by the state. This expenditure of the state's money is justified upon the ground that the efficiency of the schools will thereby be advanced, resulting in a higher degree of citi- zenship. This is the conclusion of the most advanced thought in educational development.
For various reasons we have not heretofore been fully persuaded that Wilton could advantageously enter into such an arrangement, but now we have no doubt as to its expediency and advantage. It is our opinion that with
40
the same appropriation for schools as was voted last year, we can unite with other districts, which have expressed a willingness to join us and meet our proportion of the ex- pense thereby incurred without an additional appropria- tion. We should recommend that such an arrangement be made for only one year and then our citizens can judge of its success and pass upon the wisdom of its continuance. The State Superintendant of public instruction and all prominent educators are heartily in favor of such a union of school districts. Certainly our boys and girls are en- titled to the best educational advantages in your power to grant. We commend this matter to your favorable con- sideration.
GENERAL REMARKS
We regret the necessity of announcing the resignation from the board, of Miss Moore, who has served the dis- trict so faithfully during the past seven years. By her kindly counsel, she has been of great assistance to teach- ers. In her devotion to the duties of her office, she has taxed her strength to the limit, and she leaves her work having at heart the interests of all the teachers and every pupil in our public schools.
The board has labored for the highest good of our schools. In the selection of teachers we have exercised our best judgement. It is, of course, absurd to suggest that a board would retain a teacher whose work was unsatisfac- tory and thereby invite constant criticism with all its at- tendant annoyance. If, however, we were convinced that criticism was unfair and unjust, we believe a board is jus- tified in sustaining a teacher in every reasonable way. To
41
do otherwise would be false to oursense of right and duty and a gross wrong to the teacher.
Before concluding this report the Chairman may be par- doned for a personal word. In 1885 the "new school law," as it was then termed, went into effect. Uuder its provisions, the single school district was established. In the twenty years which have intervened, I have served ten years. While I would not presume to anticipate the action of the coming district meeting, I trust it may not be deemed any impropriety on my part to suggest that under no consideration would I feel that I could with jus- tice to my business interests, continue my service on the Board. I feel deeply grateful to an indulgent public for its repeated manifestations of confidence. My interest in the work of our schools is sincere and devoted and my in- fluence and effort will always be exercised for their high- est developement.
The Board appreciate the support which has been so generally extended during the past year. The town by a generous appropriation has exhibited an interest in this most important department of its affairs, which is most creditable.
We trust that the same generous spirit may attend the deliberations of the coming town meeting. Money inves- ted in making intelligent citizens pays the very highest dividends.
Respectfully submitted,
GEORGE E. BALES Chairman.
