The writers of school reports are often speak- ing of changes in the school curriculum and of various school activities which the writers frequently denominate as progress- ive movements in education. It is the point of view of the writer. Progress to some is only the marking of. time to others, and to others the activity may be retrogressve. So when one wishes to know if a particular system of schools is pro- gressive he must consider a great many things minutely before he can find an answer to his question. Among the matters Of consideration are buildings, equipment, means of support, pupils, organization and administration. After a consideration Of all the forces affecting the education of our youth we should give some attention to the roduct. It is not my intention in this brief report to consider in detail the foregoing matters. I mention them only for the purpose of asking those who may be interested to direct their inquiries along these lines- y own observation of these matters with respect to our own schools leads me to say that under the prevailing conditions the product is fully as good as we need expect. Different conditions would produce different results more or less im- proved according to greater or less improved conditions- Setter results than we have obtained demand better conditions than we have had to meet. In other words we are reaping Only what we have sown. Time forbids a fuller discussion of general conditions and results. 0 THE HIGH SCHOOL , The quality of the work done in our I41gy R is ork Ile improved.

SPELLING CONTEST Rivalry, whether for an honor or for a more material con- sideration, is a great incentive in every field of human activity. Spelling in the three high schools of this superintendency was at a low ebb. To awaken an interest in the subject an annual contest has been arranged with three representatives from each Of the three high schools taking part. The first contest was held June 15, 1925, in Orleans. The next contest will be held Monday evening, June 7, 1926, in Harwich. SILVER CUP The Educational Department of the Orleans Woman's Club has donated a silver cup to be held by the school winning the contest. The cup will become the ermanent possesion of the school that is the first to win the contest in three successive Years. The Woman's Clubs in Orleans and Chatham gave to the member of their High Schools that remained longest in the contest a gold key. In Harwich the key was given by the School Committee to the Harwich pupil remaining longest is the contest. Last June the cu was won by Harwich. Key el were presented to Phyllis E. Gill, '25 of Orleans, to v of M• Bearse; '27 of Chatham and to Earle L. Sims, Harwich. Music for the occasion was furnished by the three ,High School Glee clubs. A program of the contest is appended to this report. 82 Competitive tests in other subjects would n0 is es hating and beneficial.

Less time would seriously impair the -efficiency of the work. Already careful observers of the work have noted a marked improvement. Its close correlation With the other work of the school makes it an almost indispens- able part of every school program of studies. HEALTH There is an improvement in our health work. Annual and more careful physical examinations are being made. Home co-operation in the correction of defects found and a better control of contagious diseases is noticeable. Malnutrition wherever found is receiving ore attention and a marked improvement in the health of the individual child is noted. PHYSICAL CULTURE While some advance in our work in physical culture is no- ticeable we still have much to do before this work can be said to be on a truly satisfactory basis. We are slow in recognizing the real value of this work and what it means to the welfare, comfort and enjoyment of the men and women who are soon to carry on the work of our country. At present the work seems to be a thing to be talked about and not a thing to be done. When prescribed physical activities receive the same unquestioned acceptance a sis accorded to the prescribed mental activities of the school then we shall have results no less I Wish able than our mental achievements. In passing, however, I wish especially to commend the teachers who have worked faith- fully, not only during the periods allotted to physical training, but also have given much of their time outside of prescribed fours to the various athletic activities. Unselfish. sacrifice °n the part of the teachers for the good of their ibPds mwith line of endeavor deserves more than a passing tribute. what fee'ings of comfort and satisfaction must parents con- I , 85 84 PROGRAM OF STUDIES tUeY f em late the la hours of their children When i the The first column of figures indicates the number of reci- t p they o tations per week, the second the number of units in diploma that these hour are u ervised by worthy tervised, it, credit.
