It is encouraging to find that our classes rank' aboveh t eatr' 1 n ona level in general achievement, , but we are more interested in overallu' growth rowth P P from year to year, and this can bedetermined by comparing test results over aY eriod of ears. The P current series of tests cover two school years and a comparison 'show the follo w p s e wing results Table III.

The above table shows that grade three made perfectly normal growth during the past school year. Each grade was tested at the beginning of the school year (ex- cept grade one) in 1957 with the results as shown in the second column. Therade g s were e e retested in September 1958 with the results as shownin column four. The 'median score shown opposite grade three in column four indicates the achieve- ment level of the class as ` a result of work dur- ing the second grade etc. Grades` two and six show growth in excess of one and one-half ears g years, and grades four and five' show less than normal growth. These result media g s are n scores not indi- vidual scores. Actually, the majority of the pupils in grades four and five made better than normal growth during the year. However, there is an in- dication that greater stress must be placed on the work of these two intermediate grades. Even though the two grades failed to show a normal amount of growth, the both are just about where the g � Y J Y should be as far as actual achievement levelg oes. A closer analysis of the individual pupil attainments would probably show that a rapid initial growth in grades one and two was followed by a perfectly 32 ,ter r v. normal period of leveling off during the next two or three grades. H. Special Class Last January, we started a special class to pr vide o- f special help o p p f r those pupils ' in need of extra attention in certain areas of their school work. This class is required under Section 46 of Chapter 71 of the; General Laws of Massachusetts; and the expenses of operating this class and of the teacher's salary are partially reimbursed by the Common= wealth from funds obtained' by means of the tax on 'personal incomes. ,r. Our special class is located in a room in the Park Rove. School and has an average enrollment of nin eu ils Th p p e class is rated very highly by theDivision of Special Services of the State De- a tine p r nt of; Education both for the excellence of facilities provided for theupils, and for the caliber P and qualifications of the two persons who have con-,,�. ducted the class since i was `instituted Mrs. rs. Esther Curtis a sixthg rade teacher in the Park Row School, taught the special class from January through June. Mrs. Curtis elected to return to her sixth grade g de duties last fall and Mrs. Dorothea Robello a fourthg rade teacher' in the Central School has au s taught this group since September. III. Enrollments Total' pupil registration last fall was approxi- mately the am a n 1 7 - y_ same s i 95 The 'current peak en- rollment r t m the elementary grades was reached in 1954, when 982 children were enrolled, (as of Octo- ber 1) and has fallen off slightly each year since. g Y Y The 'grade one through six 'enrollment` for October 1 1958 was 928. This ma be the lowest figure ' in Y thecurrent r nt "series, as local "birth registrations for h t ea t ' p s six years,: and current grade registrations,:. indicate t ai possible' enrollment exceeding 1000 pupils within the next ' five or six years. Our secondary pp n o population isgrowing-much faster than the elementary group, and reached a new high of 750 pupils on October, 1, 1958. This will be in- creased n crea e s d annuallyfor the next few an then e t years,d be followed by a slump, reflecting the present dip in elementary g g Pe figures during the ' art four or five years. "There will then be a''sharp ' increase on the secondaryelementary level as the growing. e ment ry'groups advance into the high school These assumptions do g P not take into account ' any abnormal g`rowth pat- terns that may come about as a result of business' or housing developments in the area. There continues to be a relatively large turnover of pupils caused by families moving in and out of Mansfield.

Conclusion An analysis of the school system at this time shows that considerable improvement and growth has taken place during the year just concluded.
