Report of School Superintendent


To the Voters of the Town of Newfane:


It is often easier to plan than to execute. Hence we are not surprised at the end of the year to find that some of the recommendations made at the beginning have not been put into effect. While some of those things that we hoped for have not been done, others, wholly unforeseen, but equally as important, have been accomplished. And so things "average up" in school work as elsewhere in life.


SCHOOL PROPERTY.


The interior of School hall, Williamsville, has been neatly painted, making it wholesome and suitable for use as a schoolroom.


The fence around Brookside school grounds has been re- built, giving the place a more tidy appearance.


Parish schoolroom still needs fresh paint and kalsomine with some minor repairs about the building.


None of the buildings have been extensively repaired.


The vacant school buildings make silent appeals for bet- ter roofs, if nothing more, to fortify them against the ele- ments.


In rooms not provided with convenient ventilation, win- dows should be furnished with catches so they may be lowered one or two inches, or more if needed. This is im- portant.


SCHOOLS.


Six schools have been and are being maintained thirty weeks each, during the year, as heretofore. Parish school, closed four weeks, South Newfane and Williamsville, two


30


weeks (on account of smallpox in the Parish), have re- opened and will continue correspondingly later.


Last year the Williamsville school was reported large, 40 pupils. In the spring the number increased to 47. It was arranged for Mr. Manchester to spend one hour a day extra in school, the primary pupils coming and going a half hour earlier in the morning, and the older ones a half hour later afternoons. In September two departments were formed and continued the remainder of the year, Mr. Man- chester with the older pupils upstairs where portable desks are provided, and Miss Howe with the primary pupils in the regular schoolroom. The 50 pupils have furnished good classes for both rooms. Much better progress has been made than would have been possible without the division.


TEACHERS.


Besides the present force of teachers, others employed during the year were :


Miss Lottie Hunt, spring and fall, No. 1.


Mrs. M. Agnes Walcott, spring and fall, No. 4.


Miss Bertha Manchester, spring and fall, No. 8.


Miss Beulah Timson, spring, No. 5.


Mrs. Mae Whitcomb Cole, fall, No. 5.


Mrs. E. A. Kenyon, one half spring term, No. 2.


Miss Hortense L. Switzer, one half spring term, No. 2.


Miss M. Sadie Davidson, part fall term, No. 2.


Of the fifteen teachers employed during the year, three have had elementary courses of study, five partial high school or academy courses, four high school or seminary courses, supplemented by practical teacher training in two cases, three high school or seminary courses followed by normal training.


Few of our teachers attended any beside the local teachers' meeting. Six took no teachers' or educational papers, al-


31


though we expect the doctor to have his medical journal and the dressmaker her style books, and not depend wholly upon what was learned ten or five years ago. Too few take the trouble to visit model schools (successful graded schools), to observe best methods. This is an inex- pensive and very practical way of securing up-to-date ideas. It is good to state that some of our teachers are planning to visit such schools during vacation. The direc- tors would allow some time for visiting, to those who devote some of their own time to the same purpose.


The adoption of a blank form to be filled out by teachers applying for schools hereafter, has been considered some- what by the directors. This would give teachers an oppor- tunity to state their training and whether prepared to use up-to-date methods at once, or whether they are to be ac- quired by them while teaching. Excellent work may be done by inexperienced teachers who are qualified by educa- tion, and are anxious to learn and apply what is best in teaching and management. We are constantly seeing such things done. It is better to have them understood in the beginning, and due allowance made for these conditions.


CERTIFICATION.


Four permits have been granted during the year. In two cases the teachers were engaged after examinations were over. In the other two, the omission of November exami- nations in Brattleboro (on account of smallpox) necessi- tated permits. All other teachers were regularly certifi- cated. Three taught under life certificates.


THE WORK.


With so many changes in teachers, continuity of work has been interfered with to an extent, but we have tried to keep in mind a few important points, such as :


32


More careful grading. Improved reading. Good spelling lessons. Thorough understanding of subjects gone over.


To recite intelligently.


To write a clear legible hand. To be accurate in mathematics. To complete the course of elementary studies. To make best possible use of all materials furnished.


It is a matter of interest that Miss Davidson inaugurated in No. 2, and Miss Streeter has continued, the daily prac- tice of politeness among the pupils that cannot but have its influence outside the school room and in after years. A similar plan might be adopted in other schools. The pupils seem to enjoy it much.


TEACHERS' MEETINGS.


Two meetings have been held. Both were informal. The first was on the afternoon of May 1, at the home of the Su- perintendent, and was attended by all the teachers. The last was Friday afternoon, December 11, at the Newfane school- house. All teachers present except one. At the last meet- ing the directors were represented by F. A. DeWitt. Only practical problems of our own schools were considered. Light refreshments were served after the meetings, in the latter case by Mrs. Davidson at her home.


TEXT BOOKS.


About 250 worn-out books were on hand at the close of last year. They have been exchanged for new ones, ma- terially reducing their expense. Some pupils have no respect for books. In such cases parents or guardians should pay for books injured, as provided by our state laws, until


33


pupils learn to take good care of books furnished. The directors voted to adopt the Smith Arithmetics when new ones were bought. They have given good satisfaction in the grades for which they are used.


VISITORS.


One hopeful sign in connection with the work is the in- creased number of visits by patrons and friends. All schools have been favored in this respect, the number varying from eleven to twenty-five in different rooms. Cooperation and visiting by parents will help both teacher and pupils. The lists of visitors include the names of men as well as women. Let the good work go on.


EYE AND EAR TESTS were given with results shown in the table.

The results, as a whole, are much the same as in other towns. No reason is assigned for the great difference noted between Brookside and Parish (1212 per cent), and Union (86 per cent). No pupils under 7 years old are examined. Notices of defects are sent to parents or guardians, and should be heeded at once. Headaches, and often backward- ness in studies, are remedied by correct treatment and glasses. Frequent attention should be given to the teeth. At least two small children have been kept from school re- cently by toothache. Decayed teeth sometimes cause trouble with eyes, ears, throat, stomach, besides nearly all cases of facial neuralgia.


EXAMINATIONS FOR HIGH SCHOOL TUITION CERTIFICATES


were conducted June 25-26, and August 27-28, as directed by Superintendent Stone. A few pupils took part of the subjects as trial work. The others took all subjects or


35


completed work already begun. It was a pleasure to your Superintendent to send to H. D. Ryder, our county ex- aminer, such creditable work as was done by most of these pupils.


Tuition certificates were issued by Mr. Ryder to Miss Fray Ballou, Miss Ruth Gray, Miss Belle Timson, Miss Florence Lazelle, Miss Cora Winchester, Miss Bertha Palmer, Leon Stevens, Walter Wright, Joseph Palmer, Guy Radway.


Some other certificates will be awarded upon completion of required work. Five of these pupils are taking ad- vantage of their certificates.


EXPENSES AND HIGH SCHOOL COURSE.


When asked if they had a message for this report, the directors replied : "Only this, that in spite of our best efforts to keep them down, the expenses are increasing."


This is caused in part by higher prices for labor and some materials, teachers' wages, etc.


The transportation is a heavy expense, but this, in the main, is paid back by the state to the town.


When increased expenses are considered we must keep in mind that Newfane practically maintains a good high school with a four years' course, that sixteen or more pupils have attended during a part or all of the year, and that they are members of all four classes. Good reports come to us of the work they are doing. Teachers say, "Send us more Newfane pupils like those we now have."


Your Superintendent attended graduation exercises at Leland and Gray Seminary when Miss Maude Radway was graduated with high standing, being second in her class. In the program she was salutatorian.


Leon Stevens won a prize in the oratorical contests. What would be the expense if Newfane furnished equally


36


as good advantages within the town limits? Could we undertake it?


Much of this tuition comes back to the town from the state. Let us be thankful that we have young people to educate, and pay their tuition cheerfully. This work seems to be far better appreciated by the pupils than the trans- portation accommodations are by some parents.


Transportation in some cases has been complained of, and its benefits misunderstood.


Mention might be made of special features of each school, of the W. C. T. U. prize essay work, of the many visits (long and short), and much other work done by the Super- intendent, all of which cannot be crowded into one brief report. The matter of supervision should be kept well in view, and whenever the interests of the schools will best be met by entering a supervision district, the directors should take up the matter as they deem best.


Thanking teachers and patrons for cordial cooperation and school directors for ever-ready counsel and advice,


This report is
