We,
the Selectmen of Farmington, herewith submit our
annual report for the year 1964, for your consideration

We would first like to call your attention to
the financial
Our surplus this year is $4,265.37. After the
expenditure of $5,000.00 for a used truck, with the
approval of the Budget Committee, gives us an overall
increase of $1,267.19 this year.
report.
The appropriation for summer maintenance was used to
continue the re-surfacing of streets, and improvements
of roads in various sections of town. A big improvement
was the new bridge which was built on the River Road
and should give us many years of service.
The money from T R A was used to complete the Tebbetts
Hill Road from the Waldron Bridge to the New Durham
line. This money will be used in another section of
town this year to further improve our roads
Underthe Welfare Department we have once again found
it necessary to ask for an increase in the appropriation,
welfare seems toincrease each year especially the Old
Age Assistance.
With money from the Parking Meter Reserve fund we
continued repair of sidewalks and gutters With the
monies from this fund this year we again recommend the
continuation of this work in other sections of town.
.
We
wish to extend our sincere appreciation for the
fairness and understanding which the townspeople have
shown us this year and sincerely hope that our efforts
have resulted in benefits to the town.
Respectfully submitted,

FIRE
WARDEN REPORT
REPORT OF THE FOREST FIRE WARDEN
AND YOUR DISTRICT CHIEF
fire season surpassed the record year of 1963
and severity. For the second successive year, we
experienced a rainfall deficiency of more than ten inches and the
compounding of such drought conditions, together with the many
days of strong, dry winds, characterized 1964 as one of the most
hazardous years in the past half century. Although our fire season
was three weeks longer than that of 1963, the number of fires
showed only a slight increase and more remarkable was the fact
that the area burned dropped from 2280 acres in 1963 to 900 acres
in 1964. Early detection and rapid response kept many potential
fire disasters from becoming reality. We all owe a debt of gratitude
to the men in this community who responded and fought our fires
so efficiently. Our state is now 86% wooded and its economy-both
industrial and recreational-is greatly dependent on this forest resource. The responsibility for adequate fire protection of this great
area-4, 350 ,000 acres-is everyone's responsibility and prevention
is one of our most effective tools
Prevention is good common sense.
1.
Take your rubbish to the town dump. If you must burn,
obtain a permit and watch your fire until it is dead out.
Instruct your children in fire safety. Keep matches from
2.
young children. Explain to them the dangers of lighting
matches and making outdoor fires.
3.
Be sure discarded smoking material and matches are out.
The 1964 forest
in both length
A major
portion of our preventable fires this year are chargeable to three causes: (1) permit fires allowed to escape; (2)
children playing with matches; and (3) smokers. Let's be mindful
of the fact that all such fires endanger property and lives.
We wish to thank you for your very fine cooperation during
the past fire season and with your continued cooperation we are
confident that
we can improve

�REPORT OF PRINCIPAL
To the Superintendent of Schools:
The undersigned herewith submits his report for the
period from January 28, 1964 to January 25, 1965.
The enrollment in grades eight through twelve was
268 pupils on January 27, In the period to September 9,
when the present school year began, there had been 13
pupil transfers to other schools: 13 pupils had left
school; and 3 new pupils had been enrolled. (Part of this
total occured during the summer recess when 10 pupils
transferred to other schools, and 6 pupils decided not
to return to school)
The enrollment at the end of the
school year , in June was 2 6 1 Since September 9 when
288 pupils registered, 2 pupils have transferred toother
schools, 5 have left school; and 10 have been enrolled
since school began. The total enrollment is now 291,
plus one post graduate student attending on a part time
basis. With the trend toward an ever increasing enrollment continuing, the possibility of the present school
housing reaching capacity in the very near future should
be noted in making plans for Farmington High School.
In June of 1964, forty pupils were graduated from
Farmington High School Of this total fourteen elected
to continue their educations in colleges
technical
schools, business schools, nursing schools,
and in
other institutions; four entered the armed forces; two
became housewives; eighteen were employed; and two
were at home. It is understood that this is the largest
class ever to graduate from Farmington High, but the
next two classes scheduled for graduation promise to
be even larger.
There has been a number of changes within the
curricula effected this year. The courses in psychology
and economics have been made alternating, one semester
courses to permit more students to take advantage of
these offerings without increasing staff size or purchasing additional textbooks The capacity of these subjects

was doubled by doing so. The first year biology course
has been made mandatory for all entering freshmen in
order that the graduation requirement of one science unit
be met, and to comply with the legislative requirement
concerning alcohol education. An advanced biology
course has been added for those pupils who wish more
preparation in this area, and, in general, is open to
sophomores with good grades in biology. The course in
earth science has been retained for those students who
wish to acquire a broader science background, or who
have been unable to succeed in the biology program.
The general mathematics program is being strengthened
by phasing out of the old review type of mathematics
and substituting a new sequence. Those freshmen who
are not planning for a college preparatory mathematics
program, and who find difficulty in achieving success
in mathematics, will have available to them a program
better suited to their needs. This will meet the graduation
requirement of one unit in mathematics. This course will
be expanded to a two year sequence, should sufficient
demand develop which would be the approximate equivalent of one year of algebra, should both the first and
second year courses be completed. This plan is recommended by the current thought of mathematics authorities
The industrial arts offerings have been improved by
making available to boys not interested in a post graduate
academic training, a four year sequence of courses by
adding mechanical drawing and sheet metal as subjects.
The shop program is still heavily weighted toward woodworking however The district might consider substituting a course in electricity, welding, small internal
combustion engines, or the like, for the second of the
woodworking courses. This would provide an exploratory
experience of more practicality for the local area. The
home economics program has been strengthened by limitand by offering a three year

sequence of courses for them. A fourth course, for those
girls who have not had an opportunity in this area, has
been opened to senior girls, especially those who have
been occupied with the college preparatory or business
programs
The improvement in the high school library has

�been marked by an increase in books and equipment,
both by purchase and by gifts The book collection is
approaching the point where the school library will meet
the state requirement in regard to the number of volumes.
The problem now is to be sure that the collection is
properly balanced. That is, that a sufficient number of
volumes be acquired to represent adequately the ten
major divisions of knowledge as recommended by the
minimum requirements. A further danger would be the
failure to keep the collection up to date. As there are
changes in styles, and in knowledge, books representing
these changes should be acquired, and those which have
become obsolete should be discarded. Each high school
student is required to take a course in the use of libraries,
.
applicable not only to the school library, but to other
accomplish this, each student is
assigned to the library for one period per week. The
library has become a most effective part of the school
system, and of great value to students and faculty alike
The students have available to them a very limited
educational guidance program. It is recommended that
this program be expanded to the point where it would
meet the minimum requirements of all high school students.
However, in order to do this, it would be necessary to
add a faculty member to the staff. This is due to the
anticipated increase in enrollment for the 1965-1966
school year, and the belief that it is the desire of the
district to maintain its present standards of pupilteacher ratios and subject offerings. If the district
chooses not to have a guidance program, it would not
need this addition to the staff, as guidance could be
abandoned. The writer does not endorse this move, as
a properly conducted guidance program is of great value
to the student, both in his making wise choices while
in school, and the effect these choices have on the
individual's future well being and happiness. (This is
especially true with the college bound, who are finding
an ever greater competition for space in colleges very
difficult to meet successfully). These, in turn, would
reflect the value they received in the local community
by making these citizens better able to benefit that

of co - curricula activities. These include the
athletic teams, the Science Club, Math Club, Dramatics
Club, and the class organizations. The Booster Club
is a new organization this year, striving to develop
school spirit and encourage the basketball team and
cheerleaders by its vocal support. The Student Council
is maintaining its control of the student driving program,
as well as attempting to foster better school spirit. These
co-curricula groups have been quite active, and have
helped to maintain the interest of the students in the
school.
The school has had a large turnover in its staff
during the past school year. Fortunately, the replacements have turned out well a s a whole being most cooperative and willing to work to become good teachers Credit
is due to the veteran teachers that have remained in
Farmington and have been of considerable assistance
to the novices; and who have been quite effective in
providing the necessary continuity any school must have
The building has remained in good condition, and
requires no more than the usual precautions necessaryto
preserve the district's investment. Additional furniture
will be required for the coming school year as the number
of students is expected to increase. It might be wise to
consider the necessity for additional classroom space
in the future as projected enrollment continues its upward trend. The district would be wise to provide a
financial program to take care of special maintainance,
such as cleaning septic tanks, repairing heating equipment, and the like. One never knows when these sorts
of items will suddenly need attention, and the failure
of either could prove hazardous to the health of the pupils.
In passing, it is noted that parts of the building, such
as the auditorium, have been used by local organizations
a total of sixty different times during the past year, and
that the building provided space for an extension course
that was conducted by the University of New Hampshire.
In closing the writer would like to express
his
appreciation of the fine cooperation he has received
from the Farmington School Board, the Superintendent
of Schools, fellow principals, faculty and staff, and
from the pupils and their parents.

ELEMENTARY PRINCIPAL'S REPORT
Improvements To Instructional Program
Our most important, and hopefully our most significant,
new undertaking this year reflected our desire to seek
out more effective and more enriching methods of instructional technique. In considering possible means by which
to realize our goal, it was decided that two key innovations would be adopted, using the fifth grade as the trial
group.
One
of these innovations represents a basic depart-
ure from traditional concepts
of class
organization in
local elementary schools i.e.- the use of departmentalization in lieu of the traditional self-contained classroom concept. In an effort to effect a smooth transition
from a familiar to a novel instructional system, and to
guard against an undue complete reliance in an untested
system, only part of the day has been organized on a
departmentalized basis, with the remainder devoted to
the traditional self-contained classroom principle.
,
way we hoped to combine the major advantages
systems and ameliorate the intrinsic weaknesses
of each. Thus each specialist teacher's increased study
and attention to her major subject produces benefits to
the pupils in broader insights and improved techniques
of instruction through the auspices of departmentalization,
while, at the same time, during the part of the day devoted to the traditional manner, the increased security
and correlation of concepts that should be its benefits
result. Also, the use of both methods precludes the

possible lack of close student - teacher relationships
which complete departmentalization might encourage,
but, similarly, discourages the passive or static thought
that association with only one teacher might tend
to
foster.
To date the teachers involved feel that the experiment
has been successful and that the arrangement has proven
more desirable than the system it replaced.

that part of the day
when
Therefore, during
instruction is offered on a
departmentalized basis , homogeneous grouping is in use
whilte furing the remainder of the day, when the selfcontained classroom concept prevails, heterogeneous
grouping is the pattern.
Improvements of Instructional Materials
Our efforts to increase the quality and utility of our
materials of instruction have, naturally, continued pace.
We concentrated our efforts here in the area of science,
that former step-sister of the elementary curriculum.
Lamentably, we had not procured nearly enough of the
necessary instructional materials to raise that subject
from the menial position it had for so long occupied in
the elementary curriculum, even though some years have
passed since the estimation of its value in the education
of children has been greatly elevated. By the purchase
of new science texts for the fifth, sixth and seventh
grades both the nature and the quality of our science
instruction have been considerably advanced. Prepara tions have also been made for the purchase of a film-strip
projector and film series whose salutary effects will be
felt primarily in this area Some small additional investment will be necessary to consummate a well developed
,
.
science program.
In our continually developing insight into the role
the vital, the fundamental, the
of reading as the key,
indispensable essential for success both in the formal
education of school, and, fully as important if not more
so, the informal education, the self-education, of later
life, we try never to fail to extend a major share of our
effort to the field of reading.
Our efforts here have included: 1-the continued development of our school library, using both school budget funds and funds raised through our "own efforts;
2- an introduction into our reading classes of material
specifically designed to develop the vital skills associated with the application of critical reasoning and interpretation to written material, which is, after all, the
SD
27
�,
highest and most valuable function of reading: 3- the
purchase of a second basal reader for our fifth grade
reading groups where the advent of departmentalization
admits to the functional application of such varied supplementary materials; 4- an intensified effort extended to
those of our pupils who have major reading problems byincreasing the amount of time and attention devoted to
them via individualized instruction, through the offices
of our remedial reading instructor, Mrs. Haskell.
It has perhaps been true that, in our anxious
desire
to develop in our pupils competency in the mechanics of
reading, we have lost sight of the fact that this is simply
a tool, albeit a key one, withwhich we hope to cultivate
the more vital, the more elevating skills inherent to the
t>asi-s nature of reading; or, stated another way, we have
tended to consider, unintentionally, I feel, that competency in the mechanics of reading is our goal, our end,
while in fact it is rather a first step, a means, to a
considerably more important end. With this in mind, much
of our recent effort has been at least partially designed
to reorient our thinking so as to bring it in line with the
more realistic goals of reading instruction. In this regard
our. library helps by fostering intellectual curiosity
through presenting broad areas of interest and experience
which at the same time help to develop certain desirable
standards of taste and judgement. Similarly, habits of
independent thought, careful and critical analysis of
information, and healthy scepticism (attributes so essential but so often lacking in todays world) are fostered
by our use of special materials for reading with thought.
These newly developing features of our program now
supplement our basic classroom instruction and the
specialized individual help offered by Mrs. Haskell.
Finally, in this area, one set each of sixth grade
social studies texts and seventh grade math texts were
purchased as replacement items, though it should be
noted that the quality of these replacements exceeds that
of the original materials.

be accommondated in a small room.
The following changes were made in the teaching
staff this year. Mrs. King, whoretiredafter many years
of valuable service, was replaced by Mrs. Larow. Mrs.
Larow previously taught one of the fourth grades. Mrs.
EUamarie Carr replaced Mrs, Collins in grade 4 and
Mrs. Jo Ann Warren took over Mrs. Parkinson's assignment in grade 2. Mrs. Nancy Jones was assigned to the
new division
of grade 3.
Mrs. Dorothy Bassett and Mr. Julian Leach continue
their work in vocal instruction and instrumental music
Changes have been made this year in our reading
program, which are explained in the report of Mrs
Haskell, our reading coordinator.
We hope to institute a new math program in grades
1,2 and 3 next September.
A well equipped science cabinet was added to our
equipment and is proving to be most helpful in the teach-

ing of this subject.
We are very grateful to the Woman's Club for the
gift of an overhead projector.
Our "intercom" system is proving its worth every
day.
Hot Lunch still continues to be popular with the
primary grades. Although there is no Future Teachers

READING CONSULTANT'S REPORT
To the Superintendent of Schools:
In Sept. 1964, 244 pupils in grades 5,6,7
were tested in ability to recognize words at sight.
Results are as follows; those who were 1 1/2 or more
years retarded in this skill by grades-Grade 7, 18%;
Grade 6, 24%; Grade 5, 34%. Many children in grade 7
had been given individual help in varying amounts while
in grades 5 and 6. Some of the 6th graders had received
help while in Grade 5. None of the 5th graders had received individual help.
The remedial help for the first half year has
been concentrated on the pupils in grades 6 and 7 who
are still in need of help. An attempt has been made to
get them as near grade level as possible or to the limit
of their ability. The rest of available time has been
spent with some 5th graders and more of these are added
as time permits.
Grade 5 was divided into 4 reading groups according to ability and are given class instruction at a
challenging achievement level , rather than at frustration
level. We presently have four groups reading at four
different levels
We know
that all children can not read at
that some will never be able to but an
grade level and
attempt is made to get them as far as possible.
In Dec. grade 4 was checked and found to be
needing more help than a regular classroom teacher has
time for. This grade was then divided into 4 sections
with each teacher taking two of the groups. Letters and
word lists were sent home to parents who have been
assisting with drill work. Time was set aside three
afternoons a week when team teaching was put into
effect. "Johnnie, who reads extremely well, helps Mary,
who doesn't read well." "High school girls come in on
free periods and assist with individual children. Once
a week each child is checked individually on his
progress. In the short time this has been in effect, a
tremendous improvement has been noted.
In all 1st grades, a new system of reading was
introduced, stressing phonics. A pilot group in both
SD
31
�grades 2 and 3 was started on the same system. After
standard reading tests are given in May, we will have
a better idea of whether the new approach improves the
child's ability to attack new words. Thus improving his
overall reading success.
It is our hope that eventually all children will be
reading at least up to their ability.

REPORT OF SCHOOL NURSE
To the Townspeople, School Board and Superintendent
of Schools:
The following report is for the school year 1963 to 1964.
The communicable disease incidence was low with
a mild epidemic of German measles, four cases of
mumps, twenty-one cases of impetigo, three cases of
scarlet fever and fourteen cases of hepatitis.
The annoying incidence of pediculosis (head lice)
totaled just three cases and parents were notified and
the child was treated.
The Chest Mobil Unit was at the Town Hall February
1964 and one-hundred eighty chest plates were
taken, six of these were children.
The Orthopedic Clinic was held in Dover, N. H.
December 6, 1963 and four children were transported
17,
to it.
G. Globulin shots were administered to twenty-five
teachers and personnel, October 21, 1963 to help
prevent hepatitis.
Two Tetanus Clinics were held, first April 15, 1964
with one-hundred twenty-three children receiving the
tetanus shot and the second clinic was held May 27,
1964, with one-hundred twenty-seven children receivint the tetanus shot.
A School Dental Clinic was started in March 1964
and teeth were cleaned examined and received a fluoride
treatment in grades one, two, three and four. Twohundred fifty-four children took advantage of this dental
,

�clinic sponsored by the Farmington Visiting Nurse
Association. All parents were notified of any defects
and advised to take their children to their family dentist
as soon as possible.
The usual health physical examinations were carried
out by the school physicians Dr. Robert E Lord and
Dr. George E. Quinn. Four-hundred and ninety-two
students were examined and whenever there was an
abnormal condition existing in any pupil the parents were
notified and advised to consult their family physician.
Minor defects were promptly treated.
Vision testing was administered to check defective
vision on four - hundred and thirty-one students and
hearing tests with the Maico Audiometer were done
through-out the school year to help the student. Onehundred and fifty-one children were tested.
No child needs to go with out glasses because
financial assistance is available in obtaining proper
diagnosis and corrective treatment. This maybe arranged
through me (school nurse) through various organizations
The Pre-SchoolRound-Up was held May 4-5-6, 1964
and seventy - eight children were registered at the
round-up to start school in September 1964. Each child
received a vision test, hearing test, was weighed
measured and teeth were checked and a history was
taken on each child
During the school year four-hundred and thirty five
schools calls were made by the school nurse in person
or by telephone.
One -hundred and thirty-three children were transported home by the schopl nurse and sixty children
were transported to the doctors during the school year
1963 and 1964 by the school nurse.
In concluding this report, it is a privilege to mention
the cooperation of the following service organizations
and groups who have helped in many ways and many
times; Kiwanis Club, Salvation Army, Farmington
Women's Club, Ladies Church Service Organizations,
American Legion, Elks Club, Rainbow Girls, 500 Boys

We,
the Selectmen of Farmington, herewith submit our
annual report for the year 1963, for your consideration.
We
would first
your attention to the financial
year is $7,998.18. This in part is
due to the operation of every department with the maximum of service combined with a minimum of expense.
The end result of these efforts enabled us to stay within
our overall budget and resulted in an increase in our surplus amount. The value of having a surplus was appreciated
this year when we were compelled by necessity to put a
new roof on the Town Hall. With approval of the Budget
Committee we drew from our surplus the sum of $5,300.00
to do this work and not effect our tax rate by having to
raise the money by taxation.

Our surplus

With the money from the Parking Meter Reserve fund we
continued to build and repair sidewalks on Central Street
and other streets where we found it necessary, also the
gutters on Central Street from Main Street to the Postoffice w ere all rebuilt bringing a much needed improvement in that section. It is still our plan to use the monies
from this reserve fund for more improvements in other
sections of the town.
for summer maintenance will be used
as a continuation of re-surfacing the streets, installation
of culverts, improvement of our drainage system and all
other improvements as may be deemed necessary of the
roads in all sections of tow n.
The appropriation
The money appropriated
used
to
for ToRoA, or Town Road Aid was
complete approximately 1 mile of the Meader-
�boro Road. This money will be used in different sections
of the town each year to improve our roads.
Under the welfare departments we
find it necessary to ask
an increase of $3,000.00 as this is increasing each
for
year with more old age assistance and tow n poor.
We
wish to extend our sincere appreciation for the fairness and understanding given us by the townspeople and
so hope that our efforts resulted in benefits to both the
individual and the town.

REPORT OF THE FOREST FIRE WARDEN AND YOUR
DISTRICT CHIEF
During the past year New Hampshire faced the greatest
forest fire threat to its woodlands in more than sixty
years. The continued drought brought home to our citizens,
as never before, the potential threat of destructive fires
to their beautiful and valuable forests, homes and livelihood. In true American tradition of meeting a common
threat by volunteer effort, this fire danger was minimized
by active prevention, patrol and a relinquishing of personel
rights for the commongood.lt was the greatest demonstration of public cooperation ever experienced by those responsible for local and state fire control. The ready forces
of volunteer fire services kept the losses low.
For their
effort and public response the general fire service ex-
presses
its
heartfelt thanks for a job well done.
Prevention however, is not just an activity for the bad
It must be practiced until it becomes a part of
our public conscience - a habit. Just plain carelessness
with fire causes too many of our fires.
fire years.
The
1,
following practices and suggestions will help:
Always have a permit for outdoor burning and burn
w ithin the terms of the permit and in a safe place.
Burn late in the afternoon when the w ind is dow n or
on rainy or damp days. Check your fire and if winds
develop extinguish
2,
it
Carry your rubbish
promptly.
to the public
dump
- its safer.
A
neglected backyard incinerator causes many fires.
3, Never discard lighted cigarette or match.Makethisa
year round habit regardless of the safety of your
surroundings.
4, Children caused fires are now a major concern. Keep
matches aw ay from them and teach them to respect
fire and not make it a subject of play.
Lets all join with "Smokey the Bear" and "Keep New
Hampshire Green" and growing in 1964.

FOREWORDS
The older order of Health Officers' work has undergone
a multitude of magnified duties within the experience of
the current administration. It entails constant study, going
to school and the application of experience to the many
facets embraced in the merger of the HEALTH, EDUCA-
TION & WELFARE DEPARTMENTSc
Nineteen Hundred and Sixty=three was normal in basic
some new experiences and problems posed.
In the foreseeable future, Farmington will face some unavoidable and mandatory projects, with incidental costs
running into high figures. The sewage disposal problem
is an example. All, or most of these, as officially scanned,
will be eligible for percentage assistance from State and
Federal governments. All of these now are existing and
remedies circumvented rather than avoided. No budgets
set up for them can be accurately anticipated, or the
cost of any year of Health Work, largely a matter of
emergency, and no less demanding than the major items
of government expense. THEY MUST BE MET.
Again it is the privilege of your HEALTH OFFICER to
express THANKS for the unstinted cooperation of all town
and precinct departments, local physicians, school personnel, school and visiting nurses, patriotic, fraternal
and charitable organizations and agencies, the press,
THE GENERAL PUBLIC AND KENNETH E. GUNN (the
always on-the-job DISTRICT CHIEF) and the home offices

The above resume of some of the requirements which
govern the administration of the public schools in your
community by the school board, the administrators and
teachers should clarify in the mind of the public the necessity for an understanding of the facts and a willingness to
face the issue of local support without emotion.
In conclusion, I would like to express my appreciation
for the cooperation given me during the year by the citizens, school board, pupils and teachers of Farmington.

REPORT OF THE PRINCIPAL
FARMINGTON HIGH SCHOOL
To the Superintendent of Schools:
The undersigned herew ith submits
his report for the
period from September 1st, 1963, to January 27th, 1964.
On the opening day of school the enrollment in grades
eight through twelve was 273 pupils. Since then, there
have been 6 pupil transfers to other schools; 8 pupils
have left school; and 9 new pupils who have enrolled
since school began. The present enrollment is268.^The
overall loss in enrollment has been 5 pupils. In addition
there is one post graduate student attending on a part
time basis.
In June of 1963, Farmington High School graduated 31
students. Of this total, 14 elected to continue their educations in colleges, universities, business schools, nurse's
training schools, and other institutions, Tw o entered the
Armed Forces, and 3 became housew ives; the remaining
12 graduates are gainfully employed.
At the beginning of the school year, the World Geography course was discontinued because of lack of interest
and three new courses - Psychology, Economics, and
Sociology - have been added to the program of instruction. These three courses are designed to increase the
�SD27
number
of electives available for upper classmen, and to
broaden the educational background of Farmington High
School graduates.
The students have had a very limited educational guidance program offered to them. It is recommended that
this program be expanded to the point where it would
meet the minimum requirements of all high school students. Those pupils w ho have had an opportunity to avail
themselves of this service report that it has been very
helpful to them. It is also wortihwhile to indicate that this
extension of educational guidance could be made without
adding to the total number comprising the high school
staff.
At this juncture, it would seem appropriate to point
out that an additional eighth grade teacher will be required
during the 1964-1965 school year. This is made necessary
by an anticipated increase in the eighth grade enrollment
to 90 pupils, and to the fact that the
high school enrollment is expected to increase. It would
seem realistic and consistent with current practices to
strive to maintain a pupil-teacher ratio of 30 to 1 in the
from the present 56
eighth grade.
In
endeavoring
to
develop an educational opportunity
comparable to that of neighboring communities, and harmonious with state recommendations, it is hoped that the
present strong College Preparatory and Business Training programs can be continued, and that the Home Economics and Industrial Arts curriculum s can be strengthened
by the addition of four subjects. This w ould enable vocationally minded boys to pursue a four year sequence of
industrial arts courses; and the girls who intend to enter
homemaking to follow a three year sequence in the field
of home economics. In addition, it w ould be desirable to
add a fourth course for those girls who have not had an opportunity in this area because of the election of a college
preparatory or business program. These program extensions could be incorporated in the program of instruction
with no additional increase in
number
in the high school
faculty.
The students have open to their use a fairly large number of co-curricula activities. Among these are eight ath-
�SD28
teams, (soccer, volleyball, varsity and juniorvarsity
basketball for boys and girls, baseball, and Softball);
three clubs, (the Science Club, the Dramatics Club, and
the Future Teachers of America Chapter); the Student
Council; and the five Class organizations. It might be well
to note at this time that the Student Council seems to have
the student driving problem well controlled, and is assuming
more responsibilities about the school. The other groups
mentioned above are carrying out very active programs,
letic
also.
The district is fortunate in having a faculty of experience and skill at its disposal. It is the part of wisdom to
encourage these teachers to remain in Farm ington, for the
return on the investment is far greater than the increase
in salaries. It is true that less experienced instructors
would be less expensive to engage, but the children would
suffer in receiving a poorer education, and from the onthe-job learning by the new instructor. The latter is often
a very expensive luxury.
The building has remained in good condition and requires no more than the usual precautions necessary to
preserve the district's investment. As time goes on, and
the district is able, consideration should be given to the
addition of new equipment and furnishings. It might be
wise to consider the necessity for additional classroom
space in the future, as the enrollment projection continues its upward trend.
In closing, the writer would like to express his appreciation of the fine cooperation he has received from
the Farmington School Board, the Superintendent of
Schools, fellow principals, faculty and staff, and from
the pupils and parents.
Respectfully submitted,
Charles H. Morgan

Each section of the fifth and sixth grade classes operates
on the basis of the regular elementary self-contained classroom.
The seventh grade operates on the basis of a modified
type of departmentalization. It is hoped that this w ill prepare these students to make the adjustment more easily
to the considerable differences they will find between
the elementary and secondary school systems when they
move on to high school.
CHANGES OR IMPROVEMENTS
The continuous developement of our school library as a
strong and highly effective element in our total school
learning environment was further enhanced this year by
�SD30
the purchase of a considerable number of new volumes of
various topics and age and interest levels.
Further improvements w ere made in our textbook
supply. Our program of replacing our language series
was completed this year with the purchase of seventh
grade texts. This, as with our similar programs in other
subject areas, w as a three year program. The first year
the fifth grade received the new books, then the sixth
grade, and then the seventh. In this way each child has the
benefit of following a program of instruction that has
maximum correlation as the result of using the planned
series of a particular publishing company.
In a similar manner the renewal of our social studies
tests was nearly completed.
SPECIAL INSTRUCTION
We have had the advantage of the services of four
special instructors this year.
Our vocal music program has been supervised by Mr.
Julian Leach.
Mrs. Bassett, again, has been providing our pupils with
instrumental instruction. Many get individual lessons at
this building, and some receive further group instruction
at the high school in their capacities as members of the
school band.
A conbe its result.
Our biggest boon in this area this year has been the
return of the greatly needed and fully utilized service of
remedial reading on a full year basis, even though it is
only for half a day. More time is needed for this service
if it is to realize its full potential in aiding those students
who need and can benefit by special help in this vital area

We have taken advantage of some fine, educational T.V,
programs. We average one assembly a month devoted to
an appropriate subject.
The application of blacktop to more of the playground
and the strip surrounding the building has made a great
improvement. Our long hall has also been made much more
light and attractive by painting it a lighter color. There is
still a need for playground equipment on the third and fourth
grade play area.
Many of our pupils take advantage of the Hot Luch Program. In this connection, a report of our school w ould not

Teachers' Club of Farmington High School, who has helped,
not only with this program, but in many other ways.
Although Farmington High School and Memorial Drive

READING CONSULTANT'S REPORT
To
the Superintendent of Schools:
In September 1963, all the children in Grades 5, 6,
and 7 were tested in w ord attack skills (ability to read
words at sight and out of context). This test usually reveals the child ability to use phonics in attacking new
words and gives his level in sight vocabulary.
A total of 244 children were tested. Of these, 142
were found to be either above grade level, on grade level,
or 1/2 year below grade level. The rest, 102, were from
one to five years below grade level. Breaking it down by
grades shows the following results
5-33 O.K. - 31 not O.K.
6-38 O.K. - 51 not O.K.
Grade 7-71 O.K. - 20 not 0„K.

Total 142 O.K.
In Grade
102 need help
7 - 20 of the 71
had remedial reading help in
Grades 5 and 6.
Remedial reading help has been given 5 one-half days
a week to 20 children. As a child reaches his leve, he
is excused from the group and another child replaces him.
As of January 1964, 20 children have achieved their level
and another 20 are now receiving help. Work has been
directed toward Grades 6 and 7 in order to help them before they move to the High School building. With the great
number of children needing help, those in Grade 5 will
have to wait until the upper grades are cleared.
