Report of School Superintendent.


In compliance with Sec. 620 of Chap. 34 of the general Laws of Vermont, the annual report of the Su- perintendent of schools is herewith respectfully sub- mitted.


Seven schools of thirty weeks each have been maintained. Two of these have been union schools, Nos. 10 and 1 uniting in No. 1, and Nos. 7, 9 and 4 in No. 4. The terms have been of the uniform length of ten weeks. During the winter term there was a holiday vacation of one week which was generally welcomed.


Eleven different teachers, six being residents of the town, have been employed. All are energetic, active teachers, regularly certificated. No permits have been applied for.


Two teachers' meetings have been held, one at South Newfane, Thursday afternoon, May 16th, the other at Newfane, Friday afternoon, Nov. 1st. School Directors were present at both meetings to address the teachers, or to advise and consult with them. The local teachers conducted class exercises for observation. Work done by pupils of the various schools was exhibited. Practi- cal questions, methods and plans were discussed. These meetings are helpful and tend to unify the school work.


A successful educational meeting was also held at Newfane, Feb. 14, with Hon. Walter E. Ranger, state


22


Superintendent of education present to address the teach- ers informally in the afternoon and to lecture in the eve- ning to the general public.


Sept. 19th, the teachers and many of the pupils met at Williamsville to attend, in a body, the memorial exer- cises for President Mckinley.


All books and supplies have been held by the Super- intendent for distribution. A large book case, at small expense, has been provided by the school Board for the storage of books when not in use. This plan is econom- ical as well as convenient. No unnecessary books need be purchased, and all that are available for use are ready to be sent at once to any school in need of them. Printed town labels have been provided and pasted into all text books. A portion of the language books which have seen long service have been exchanged for new ones.


Two good maps have been purchased and more are needed.


The older pupils were found to be well supplied with text-books and materials for good work. Two small sets of standard supplementary readers have been supplied for the lower grades. These have been passed from one class to another, as required. Gratifying results have attended their use.


Reading is necessarily the basis of our school work. The poor reader, in whatever grade, is at a disadvantage in all his studies, while he who reads understandingly, finds at his command a multitude of helps which other- wise would be useless. With modern methods of teach- ing, the little child learns to read with good expression whatever he can read at all. If these methods are con- tinued and the best possible use is made of the supple-


23


mentary reading now provided, the number of good readers in our schools will constantly increase and more rapid progress will be made in other studies.


It is a matter of regret that several cases of truancy have occurred. No case reported, so far as I know, has been caused by unwillingness of the child to attend school, but by the neglect or indifference of those in con- trol. The law makes it obligatory upon the teacher to report cases of truancy to the proper authorities. Any neglect of this unpleasant duty works an injustice to the tax payers who provide good schools to the pupils who attend regularly, but most of all to the child who is thus deprived of opportunities for education which can never return to him. In this connection it is a pleasure to state that increased interest in punctuality has been manifested by many pupils and patrons who realize that only those who attend regularly receive the greatest benefit from the schools. Over thirty certificates for perfect attendance were issued at the close of both spring and fall terms. Many other pupils lacked only one or two days of receiv- ing them. In spite of much sickness and several very bad days, twenty-eight received these certificates for the winter term.


Continued effort has been made to secure the best possible classification and grading of the schools, while keeping in mind the needs of the individual child. The Williamsville school has had the largest number of pupils of any in town. In order to place it upon an equal basis with other schools the Superintendent recommended that a resident teacher be employed to take charge of two or three recitations each day. The way to do this did not seem clear. A volunteer teacher has assisted during the


24


winter term, thus furnishing needed relief without added expense.


In order to make the school work continuous, the teachers have made out lists of necessary supplies and have assigned lessons to all classes at the end of each term, thus leaving the schools organized and ready for regular work on the first day of the following term, with . supplies distributed and at hand for immediate use.


In the death of our Senior School Director, Rev. F. S. Bickford, the educational interests of the town have suffered a serious loss.


The close of the year finds the teachers doing suc- cessful work in their respective schools. They should be commended for their faithfulness and for readiness to carry into effect any suggestion which promised good to the work. A good degree of interest and earnestness is manifested by the pupils who have shown advancement by their written tests and class exercises. The advan- tages of retaining satisfactory teachers are well under- stood. When changes become necessary the patrons of the schools should demand that other experienced or trained teachers be employed to fill their places. We should encourage our young people who desire to teach, to prepare themselves for the work and then give them a trial.


Many other items might justly receive attention, but space forbids.


I have the honor to sign myself


Respectfully yours, GEORGIE MORSE LOVE.
