REPORT
-OF-
Superintending School Committee
-OF THE ---
Town of Salem, N. H.
FOR THE YEAR ENDING FEB. 28th, 1882.
REPORT OF THE Superintending School Committee.
To the citizens of the Town of Salem.
In putting this annual report into your hands, we de- sire to do so in the most fitting manner possible. And hence, we shall not cumber it with any unnecessary ma- terial. We want to make two suggestions here.
1st. About Teachers.
There is by no means a dearth of competent tea chers. Teachers fully competent to teach any school, can be obtained through the different bureau's of education, without extra expense to the Town.
2nd. Prudential Committee.
I would urge upon the committee the necessity of their looking carefully after the school property. Also the necessity of their regarding the law as found in the (General Laws, chapter 89, Sec. 16.) This law says, that "every teacher, at the close of his school and at the end of each term thereof, shall make a return of such register, or record to the school committee of the town, who shall give to him'a certificate thereof; and no teach- er shall receive payment for his services until such cer- tificate is produced and delivered to the prudential com- mittee."
This law is very essential, if the town would give the superintendent a chance to do his whole duty. As it is, it is often difficult to obtain the register properly filled out, because, the teacher has been paid, prematurely.

DISTRICT No 1.
Has been under the administration of Miss Mary E. Noyes of Hampstead during the whole year. And dur- ing the greater portion of the year, the school has been very successfully managed.
DISTRICT No. 2.
Miss Nellie M. Spurr of Methuen, Mass. taught the school during the summer term, and was eminently suc- cessful in her work. Her scholars became very thorough in their studies.
The winter term was under the care of Mr. Fred N. Stickney of Methuen, Mass. A new school house has been built here during the year at a cost of $260.00.
DISTRICT No. 3.
The teacher for the summer term was Miss Emma F. Goodhue. Miss Goodhue spared no toil to advance her pupils to the highest possible attainment in their work. Miss Emma B. Gordon finished out the school year.
DISTRICT No. 4.
Good work has been accomplished in this district all through the school year. Miss Nellie J. Morse has been the teacher of both terms. And has shown herself at home in the school-room, to the advantage of the schol- ars.
DISTRICT No. 5.
Miss Lottie E. Harris of Windham continued her la- bors through the summer term. And Miss M. Edna Hazeltine of Ayers Village, Mass., took the winter term.
DISTRICT No. 6.
Grammar department. This schoollost a great amount of time, during the first term, by reason of the fact, that the scholars were not disposed to be obedient to the rules
27
of the school. Miss N. M. Moore of Derry was the teacher of the first term.
Mr. Frank J. De Meritt of Methuen took charge of the school during the second term, and a portion of the third. The last term was finished by Miss Belle D. Macgregor of Derry. The last two terms, were in advance of the first.
Primary department. The summer term was under the care of Miss J. Emma Stevens of Centre Harbor, and was as usual very satisfactory the remaining two terms were conducted by Miss Kate T. Clarke of Au- burn, N. H.
DISTRICT No. 7.
Mrs. Della Kimball taught the summer term. And Miss Emma F. Goodhue the winter term. Both terms were productive of good results. We think the last terms, especially worthy of notice.
DISTRICT No. 8.
Mrs. Senie S. Mason has continued her successful · labors in this school for the year.
DISTRICT No. 9.
Miss Belle Macdonald, began her work of teaching here, and taught the full school year. Miss Macdonald demanded a correct prenunciation of all words, and a correctness in all work which cannot be too highly. com- mended.
DISTRICT No. 10.
Miss Allice M. Little was employed to teach the first or summer term here. And the school was a failure. Miss Little is an amiable kind hearted lady, and her edu- cation was ample for the demands of the school. But she lacked the ability of imparting instruction. Miss Emma F. Goodhue was introduced for the second term and labored indefatigably to restore the school to its former status.
