REPORT.

Fellow Citizens :

The School Committee, in compliance with the law

of the State, make their annual report of the progress of

our Public Schools for the past year, and their present

condition

During the year, the Schools have been conducted much

after the old system, but we think, with some little im- provement. Owing to the scattered population of our Town, the Schools are necessarily so divided, that many of them are too small, both for the interest of the Scholar, and Teach-

er, whilst some few are crowded. This under the old Dis- trict system, was of course unavoidable, and could not well be remedied by your Committee. That system having now been abolished by act of Leg- islature, will throw the management of the Schools en- tirely upon the Committee, and, as a consequence, will much increase their labors. i

\

But this change will enable them in some cases, to make improvements, and perhaps to better distribute the Schol- ars throughout the several Districts, and dispense with some small Schools. Yet there are many difficulties in the way of a perfect system of arrangement, and we can see no way in which a radical change can be made, without incurring great ex- pense. As under a different system the present School Houses would be nearly useless. The Town having in- structed us to call the General District Committee togeth- er to consider the matter of Schools, and School Hous-

es, they may be able to devise some good plan for the fu-

ture, but we fear, that, until our Town awakes from its

slumbers, and becomes what it was in its palmy days, that the schools like every thing else must move on the old beaten track. We, however, are not of the number of those who would change our school system, for the sake of change merely, and of following the lead of more prosperous and popu-

lous Towns ; for we think some of the so-called reforms rather retard than advance the cause of education.

There is still much good in the old system of our fathers, as then both parents and children were obliged to make many sacrifices, and much exertion, to gain a fair education, and therefore they made the most of what few advantages they had.

With all due respect to the memory of the great re- former in our school system, "Horace Mann," we think he was too far in advance of our generation, to accom- plish the great good many suppose. But that the ten- dency has been to induce parents to trust too much to the scliool system, and the central power. Now, the impression seems to be, that 'tis only neces- sary to vote a good sum of money to sustain Schools, or move the old Sc/iool House, and that the education will come as a matter of course. Parents do not (with ex- ceptions of course,) see to it that their chUdren attend School as they should do, but rather indulge them in their natural desire for amusement, fearing perhaps, that they may over tax their active brains. We think that the five or six school hours per day for hve days in the week, and no study outside, and very lit- tle severe application in the School House will never in- jure their constitutions, or advance them to the front rank in life.

Parents should first lay the foundation, by forming hab- its m their chUdren of close attention to study, and in after years with the assistance of the capable teachers' we now have, a child will gain a good education, even in our Public Schools. We are induced to make these remarks partly from noticing so many marks on our School Kegis- ters, for absence in ; most cases probably, with no good rea- son. °

In regard to the Teachers of our Schools during the past year, we would say, that, with very few exceptions, they were competent and have done their work well • many of them having graduated from our own High Scliool, thus showing that we have means of education without going abroad. 6

THE HIGH SCHOOL.

At the commencement of the year we made an ar- rangement with the Trustees of Partridge Academy, whereby that institution would supply the place of the High School required by law to be kept in Town, and by the payment of a nominal sum, the Town would be free to all scholars qualified to enter such a School. We think that, so far, the arrangement has been of ad- vantage to all concerned. No more central location could probably be found, and by this arrangement the Town saved quite a large sum of money, that they would other- wise have been obliged to raise, and the Committee were thus enabled to appropriate a little surplus in the Treas- ury to extend the other Public Schools, one month each.

We omit the usual roll of honor, as it is very difficult to discriminate impartially in many cases, and in some injustice may be done deserving Scholars by omission.

With these brief and feeble remarks we close.
