HomeMy WebLinkAbout1980 Annual Report 1980 ~ North~ ~A~~~TMassachusetts THIS ANNUAL REPORT IS DEDICATED TO THE MEMORY OF Ernest J. Roberts (1918-1980) John J. Monteiro (1923-1980) The townspeople of North Andover were greatly saddened by the passing of John J. Monteiro, Vice-Chairman of the Planning Board and Ernest J. Roberts, Sealer of Weights and Measures. Their long and dedicated service to the Town will not be forgotten. We have lost two good friends and public servants, and our deepest sympathy is extended to their families. BOARD OF SELECTMEN The Beard started off 1980 with a reorffanization meeting at which time Thomas J. 51cEvoy was elected Chairman, Ralph R. Joyce, Esq. was elected Chairman o~' the Licensin~ Commissioners, and Charles A. Salisbury was elected Clerk of both Boards. Durin~ the year, the Selectmen made a number of appointments to w~rious comnlittees and positions in the Town. Ttlree elected positions became vacant during' the year which required that the Selectmen meet with the remainh~g members of the Boards to fill the vacancies. Joseph D'Angele and John Burke were appointed to the Planning' Board, and James Noble was appointed to tt:e Board of Public Works. Several Ad Hoe Committees were appointed by the Selectmen to assist them in various projects. They include the Town Farm Coaanittee, Downtown Improvement Committee. Flag Committee, Committee to Study the Land ~lse I)epartments, Landfili Committee. and the Ts× Relief Action Committee. In addition, a t,eeal Arts Council was appointed, which w~l be responsible for promoting arts and humanities ir, North Andover. The ye3r 1980 was also the year of the federal eenst:s. North Andover~s population was officially set at 20,072. The Selectmen have requested that our Administrator submit a report to the Town on om' activities for the year. The Selectmen enjoyed participetinE in many Town aetNdties such as pantdes. holiday celebrations, banquets, etc. As always, the Board would like to express its deep appreciation and thanks to our State Officials, Town Committees. Department Heads and employees. We would also like to reeo~mize the efforts of our Administrator, Brian F. Suiliwm anti our Secretary, Alice M. Letarte, for their assistance durino~- the year. Respect fully submitted, Thomas ~. l~IeEvoy, Chairman Chmqes A. Salisbury Ralph R. Joyce, Esq. John W. Graham R. Louis DiFruscio Main St. at Waverley EXECUTIVE SECRETARY The year 1980 was an active one for this office. The increasing responsibilities placed upon the ofi~ce of the Board of Selectmen through new federal, state, and local legislation has required a greater commitment of time and effort on the part of each Selectmen and their Executive Secretary. In addition to regular weekly meetings, numerous sessions were held. During the year, the Selectmen were involved in numerous activities. The preambulatinn of the Town's boundaries, which is done every five years, was done this year. The Town's first Recreation and Open Space Plan was completed. The Board approved several industrial revenue bond projects totalling over $2,000,000. Due to increasing electrical costs and budget restrictions, the Selectmen started a program for removing street lights throughout the Town. The Community Center has become a well used facility by the various elderly and youth groups in Town. With the $200,000 g~cant we received, we will be able to renovate the facility into a first class Community Center. Union negotiations were long and hard this year due to the high inflation rate and budget restrictions. We were, however, successful in reaching agreements with all the unions without the need for arbitration. Other areas which required the time and attention of this office are described below in more detail. Tax Reform As a result of the Tax Cap Law, spending limits were placed on all cities and to,~ns for fiscal years 1980 and 1981. The only way a community could exceed 104% of its previous year's budget was by a two-thirds (2/3) vote of its Town Meeting. At the 1980 Annual Town Meeting voters unanimously approved expenditures in excess of the 104% tax cap. While this action took place in May, the following November the voters overwhelmingly approved Proposition 2~, a major tax reduction and limitation law. This action was a direct result of the Legislature's failure to deal with the question of tax reibrm and the problem with the overburdened property tax. Prior to the November elections, the Selectmen appointed a blue ribbon citizens committee to delve into the question of tax reform and to analyze the pros and cons of Proposition 2½. The bottom line of their report was that although government spending (both local a~d state) has to be reduced and controlled, spending , at least on the local level, is not the major problem. While it is true that property taxes in Massachusetts are the highest in the continental United States, local spending is just below the U.S. average, and North Andover's spending is well below the U.S. average. Very simply, a major part of the problem is that we rely too heavily on the property tax. Municipalities in other States receive much more state aid and rely more heavily on userfees. Steps have to be taken on the State level to reduce spending and free up funds for local aid. The welfare budget in Massachusetts represents a major part of the budget and is one of the highest in the U.S. This is obviously one area that has to be addressed. On the local level, we must not only hold the line on spending, but we must also look to alternative sources of revenue so that we can reduce our reliance on the property tax. Where feasible,departments should set their fees so that they can be financially self-sufficient. Essentially, the people who are benefiting from the service should pay for it. This method of financing services is looked upon more favorably by bond investors and could help improve the Town's bond rating. Our analysis of Proposition 2½ is that while it has some good features, there are some pro-~isions which make it unworkable in its present form. It is doubtful that municipalities will be able to issue bonds, and if they are able to do so, the interest rates will be exorbitant. Whether the Legislalure will take action to make the law workable without changing the intent,or just sit back and let it self destruct, remains to be seen. Solid Waste During the year, this office was actively involved in the North East Resource Recovery Project, which inw~lves the construction of a resource recovery plant for the northeast section of the State. In addition to attending the meetings of the North East Solid Waste Committee (NESWC), the Executive Secretary served as Chairman of the Negotiating Committee, wliich spent numerous hours negotiating a contract with the operator of the plant. Although progress has been painfl~ly slaw, it appears that the final pieces of the project are falling into place. It is expected that an active marketing of the project will be started in the spring of 1981. Although there are several communities committed to the project already, we believe it will take until the spring Town Meetings of 1982 before enough commitmsnts are made to allow construction to preceed. We feel very strongly that resource recovel%' is the only viable long-term solid waste solution. The NESWC Project w~ll not only solve our long-term solid waste disposal problems, but it will help reduce our dependence on foreign oil. If you have noticed the fuel charges on your electric bills recently, you realize how important it is to promote alternative sources of energy. The most intriguing aspect of the NESWC project is that 90% of all the energy revenues generated by the plant will be returned to the communities. Depending on how energy costs escalate in the future, it is projected that within five to tan years the revenues from the plant will exceed the costs. Even if construction is started on the NESWC Project in 19~2, however, it will be at least ].985 before it is operational. With the Holt Road landfill quickly running out of space, this means that we are going to need an interim solution. As there is no adequate landfill facility in Town, we know we will be sending the waste out of Town and there are several ways to accomplish this. During the next year we will be working with the Board of Health and the Highway Surveyor to determine the best course of action for the Town. Community Development Efforts to revitalize the downtown district received a boost when we learned that our application for $2.4 million in federal funds was approved. Most of these funds will go to improving the downtown area. It is our hope and belief that these funds will stimulate substantial private investments. Also, we believe over the next several years you will see a dramatic face-lifting of the downtown area. In addition, we have established a Commercial Area Revitalization Distric~ (CARD) which will provide lower interest loans for new and existing merchants in the downtown area. Several other programs are currently being worked on to aid the downtown revitalizatiop efforts. Civil Service During the 1981 session of the Legislature, a proposal to substantially reform the Civil Service system will be acted upon. The objective is to develop a system based upon merit and performance aud provide for maximum local flexibility while still ensuring the rights and equitable treatment of employees. We are hopeful that this package will be passed by the Legislature and that it will resolve the problems which many communities have been having with the examination process and the necessity of having provisional appointees for prolonged periods of time. One reform measure already p~ssed, and which was recently implemented in North Andover, is the delegation of the administrati~)n of the Civil Service program for all labor service employees. The Executive Secretary serves as the Local Director for this program. Although it has added a great deal to the workload of our office, the Town should benefit by better control over the appointing process and the elimination of long delays in getting appointments approved. Elderly and llandicapped Bus Service During the year a new eeini-bus service was implemented for the elderly and handicapped of the Town. With taxi fares as high as they are, many of the elders could not afford to get around even for necessary trips. This has become a well used and vital service. For many of our elderly and handicapped residents, this service has given them a new lease on life. Seventy-five (75) percent of the cost of the service is paid for by the federal and state governments, and the remaining twenty-five (25) percent is paid for by the Town. Vandalism The subject of vandalism was of concern to the Board. During the year, a rash of vandalism incidents prompted the Board to organize a task force of local government and school officials, Police Chiefs, and Judges. Several positive steps were taken including the establishment of an alternative sentencing program for offenders. Missile Site Area With the construction of new homes in the vicinity of the abandoned A.B.M. site, it has become important that we resolve [he p~oblems associated with the site soon. To cope with the immecliate policing problems, we arranged a meeting with representatives from the State Police, the State ?}epartment of Forests and Parks, Boxford, and Middleton. The result of this meeting was that 'accesses to the site from other Town's were closed off, and we have received policing assistance from the State Police. The long-term solution to many of the problems is to get the State to move on its longstanding proposal to develop this site into a State Park. What it comes down to is convincing the Governor's Office and the Legislature that this project should be funded with the limited funds they have. We have been and will continue to work through our Representatives to achieve a resolution of this matter. Respectfully submitted, For the Board of Selectmen, Brian F, Sullivan, Executive Secretary ADVISORY BOARD The Advisory Board starts their main work of examining and discussing budgets with department heads in early January. ~¥e meet at least two nights a week plus some Saturday mornings until Town Meeting. In addition to the department budgets, we also consider and make recommendations on money articles appearing in the warrant. This past year we cpnsider~d and made recommenda tions on 103 articles and 77 budgets. The year was a difficult one for us in that we were again faced with Massachusetts Tax Cap Legislation which required us to present budgets to Town Meeting that did not exceed 4% of the previous years budget. However, because of the growth taking place in town, we felt that the town could not be properly served if we stayed within this percentage so we also presented another budget which was 6½ over the previous years figures. Because of amendments made at Town Meeting, the approved budgets amounted to almost a 7% increase over the previous year. Duo to the many extraordinary expenditures in various departments, it was necessai~y for us to ask for an additional $80,000.00 at a Special Town Meeting to add to the $50,000.D0 originally set us in the Reserve Fund. Of this $130,000.00, we made transfers to various departments totalling $124,714.00. Respectfully submitted, William Hickey, Chairman Leo Donovan Mark Henry Nicholas Kelley John Lyons Michael Stella, Esq. David Warwick Gustave Weigel ANIMAL INSPECTOR The report of the animal h~spector is as follows: 43 farms and premises m~ning large animals inspected and health certificates issued. 7 dogs quarantined as rabies suspects. 1 certificate issued for importation of dairy cows. Respectfully submitted, R. E. Atwood, DVM BOARD OF APPEALS The Board of Appeals has again maintained a full schedule of meetings this year, with twelve regular meetings and five special meeting's being conducted. Petitions filed for variances and special permits numbered twenty four, and following presentations to the Board at public hearings, nineteen were granted, three were denied, and two were withdra~t. As in previous years, the majority of requests were for setback variances. A variety of others were in the categories of area, frontag~ and height variations. Special permit requests were in the areas of dwelling conversions, additions, and one for a roller skatirLg rink, which was subsequently withdrawn. Public hearings were customarily held on the second Monday of each month in the Town Office Meeting Room, unless otherwise advertised due to displacement by Monday holidays. Member Louis DiFruscio resig~ed during his term to serve on the Board of Selectmen and Member James Noble resigned to serve on the Board of Public Works. They were replaced by Associate Members William Sullivan and Augustine Nickerson. Mr. Maurice Foulds was appointed an Associate Member and the other vacancy was not yet filled at the end of the fiscal year. Although she left after the close of the fiscal year, we would like to take this opportunity to express our sincere appreciation to Mrs. (~ilda Blacksteck for her dedicated service to the Board of Appeals. Mrs. Blackstock resigned her position as Secreta~'y to the Board of Appeals and the Planning Board and accepted a similar position in the Police Department. We wish her luck in her new job.

One of which is your North Andover Fire Department. A brief update of the Fire Department's continuing efforts to provide adequate tire protection for the townspeople of No rth Andover. As a result of the 1980 Town Meeting, the Fire Department was able to update some of its old tube radio equipment with modern so]id state radios with increased output resulting in better radio The 1963 American LaFrance Aerial Ladder Truck is in the process of being repowered to a fuel efficient Diesel engine, plus general refurbushing. To purchase this same piece of apparatus, it would be in excess of $250,000.

BOARD OF FIRE ENG!NEERS Dennis L. Currier, Acting Chief Dana N. Fisher Stewart P. Wilson 13 BOARD OF HEALTH The direct responsibility of this Board of Health is to carry out the State maI~dated programs to protect the health of the people of this community. These activities, are carried out ~rimarlly in two related sections of community health control and environmental protection control, both of which are detailed in other sections of this report. COMMUNITY HEALTH The core services of community health are the prevention of communicable disease and tuberculosis eorIrol, surveillance of premature infants, and lead paint poisoning prevention. Despite the availability of therapeutic drugs, tuberculosis has not been eradicated in many areas in the United States. The failure of the new tuberculosis ease rate to decline more rapidly has been attributed by State Officials to an influx of high-risk population in this state. The people of this community have available to them at all times and, at no cost, tuberculosis services through this Board of Health. Our public health nurse m~intains monthly surveillance of all persons known to have tuberculosis, persons with arrested cases, and persons known to have contact with the disease in this or other towns. Persons with the active disease are checked to be certain that they report regularly to their physician or the area clinic. Many of these people are on prescribed drug therapy and these prescriptions are regulated by the pharmacy of the Lawrence General Hospital. These services are all free of charge and free chest x-rays are also provided by this Board. The public health nurse also checks on premature babies born to residents of this community. Ten premature babies were born this year and she has made follow-up visits to check the quality of care given to each baby and to evaluate the hemes. In October, 1980, we held the annual flu immunization clinic for senior citizens, town employees, nursing home patients, and people with chronic conditions. Close to eight hundred immunizations were administered. The influenza vaccine is provided by the State Department of Health. State laws require that ell communieab]e diseases must be reported to the local Board of Health by either the attending physician, hospital, or family. Testing supplies and all biological vaccines are available to all local doctors, free of charge. The supplies are provided by the State Health Depart ment and are distributed by this Board of Health. ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH Title V of the Department of Environmental Quality Engineering regulates the installation of private underground sewerage disposal systems. Enforcement of these regulations accounts for the major part of the time of this Board's staff. Practically all of the remaining buildable land in this community is in unsewered areas. On the basis of a Superior Court ruling in 1980, no sewer installations abutting Lake Cochichewick will be allowed less than 250 feet from the high water mark on the Lake. During this period applications for 152 new installations were processed. Fees are charged the builders orde~-elopers of these areas and this faction of our department has been self sustaining financially. With new construction on the shores of the Lake now approved, the need for our closest supervision has broadened. Permits are required by law on all new plumbing installations and all repairs to existing plumbing. For the best environmental protection, citizens of this town should make certain that any plumber working in their homes has obtained the necessary permits from this office. That is the only way they can be sure that the work will be properly supervised and inspected. 14 There are 65 food service establishments including restaurants, retail markets, in~tustrial and school cafetarias, mobile units and nursing homes. Our registered sanitarian checks these on a monthly basis for general cleanliness, food storage and bacterial counts on dishes, glassware and silverware. New Establishments and those that are remodeled require review of the specifications and plans by this Board of Health. Our regular monthly inspections limit the number of violations. However, when any violation does occur, usually a letter from this Board results in speedy correction of the problems reported. Complaints received from the general public are usually checked within a matter of hours. Dairy products are also checked monthly by our sanitarian for quality control and bacterial count. The dairy industry has complied with expiration dates on products which helps in decrease of complaints from the public relating to sour milk or off-flavor products. Semi public pools in apartment complexes, motels, schools, etc. are also checked on a regular basis during the swimming season. These pools ere licensed annuaBy by this Board and the fees charged defray the cost of the inspections. No testing or permits are issued for pools in private homes. Many calls are received each year about conditions at our public beach, Stevens Pond. During the bathing season this Board keeps a close check on the bacteria] count of the pond water. This Board would act immediately to close the beach if unusually high bacterial counts occur. We also keep a regular check on the food service stand in operation at the beach. Permits relating to aH the above activities are issued by this Board, and during this period, 7(]1 permits were issued resulting in fees of $12,095.50 deposited with the Town Treasurer.

Scanlon 15 BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS The Board of Public Works tmrewith submits its 73rd report containing the 82nd annual report of the Water Department, the 73rd annual report of the Sewer Department, the 55th annual report of the Park Department and the 26th annual report of the School Grounds Department for the year ending June 30, 1980. Respectfully submitted. John P. Thompson, Clmi~'man Raymond J. Canty, Clerk James D. Noble, Jr. Superintendent's Report: There were installed in 1979 1980 2,477 feet of twelve inch, 15,443.,i feet ~f eight inch, 4,263.1 feet of six inch ductile iron pipe; 5 twelve inch, 28 eight inch, 35 six inch gate valves, and 26 fire hydrants. The water main distribution system now consists of 11,1.9 miles of main pipe; 2 twelve inch cheek wdves; 1 twelve inch altitude valve; 143 twelve inctl. 18 tell iIlch, 318 eight inch, 1320 six inch, and 4 four inch gate valves with 753 public fire hydrants.

The new and renewed water services equaled 2.53 miles of type "K" copper service pipe. 120 new meters installed and 52 old meters repaired and 2 fire hydrants broken off by ears, were replaced. All hydrants were inspected, repaired and painted where necessary. The annual inspection of the 1,500 gate valves and valve boxes in the system was completed. A new water testing laboratory was constructed at the south pump station and certified by ti~e Mass. Division of Environmental Quality Engineering to sample potable water. The town's water analyst took over all state mandated water testing, as well as, continuing the lake monitoring started by Merrimack College. The old six inch water mains on South Bradford Street from Meadowview Ro~d to Winter Street and on Dale Street from Winter Street to Russet Lane were replaced with new twelve inch ductile iron cement lined water main. The work was performed by Busby Construction Company of Atkinson, N.il., the low bidder. New chlorinators and automatic change over valves were installed at the south pumpin!l station. The equipment was supplied by Fisher & Porter and installed by department personnel. Fluoridation has been continually maintained by the Public Works Department and levels monitored by both ourselves and the State Department of Environmental Quality Engineerirxg. By weekly 0acteria[ examinations of the water supplied the town were made by this department at our new water testing laboratory. Check valves between the public water supply and other sources of supply for industrial and commercial uses, have been made in cooperation with the Department of Ensnronmental Quality Engineering. Mr. George H. Sanford tern'ed from the Board of Public Works after serving on the Board since 1976. Prior to serving' on the Board, Mr. Sanford was employed by the department for nearly 40 years. His experience and expertise will be missed. 16 Playgrounds Department: The playground system now consists of Grogan's Field. 4.7 acres; Drummon Field, 5.0 acres; American Legion Beach, 1,4 acres; Carl A. Thomas Playground, 4.7acres; Ap[in Playground, 1.8 acres; Chadwick Street Playground, 4.1 acres; Reynolds Playgacunds, 3.0 acres; a total of 24.7 acres. The following work was done at Grogan's Field: the baseball infield was regradad, stone dust was used to build up the pitcher's mound, the skinned area was rototilled and trimmed back, the base- ball diamond was laid out and maintained for the junior league, the intermediate league, and the police league. Four farm league diamonds were ]aid out at the Chadwick Street Playground for the Booster Club. The Little League diamond at the Carl A. Thomas PlaygTound was rebuilt and maintained for the teams of the Booster Club. The softball diamond at the Drummond Playground was maintained for the North Andover Softball League and other league teams using the field five evenings a week. The 30th annual swimming meet, held in August and sponsored by the Veterans of Foreign Wars, Post 2104, was the usual success. The beach season from June 11, 1979, to September 3, 1979, made it possible for over 6,000 men, women, and children to enjoy the fine recreation facilities and to give over 4,000 swimming lessons under Beach Director Walter C. Roberts and the lifeguards. The playgrounds, swings, see-saws, and merry-go-rounds were removed, repaired, repainted, and re-set by the department employees. The basketball courts on ail playgrounds eontinuaBy in use were kept clear of snow. Parks - Schoolgrounds Departments The park system now consists of the Center Common, 8.1 acres; training grounds, 1.9 acres; Memorial Park, 2.7 acres; Old Burying Ground, 1 sore; and the Historical Society Plot; Farrington Burying Ground; and 20 small plots at street intersections; a total of 15 acres. Rea's Pond, Steven's Pond, and Becky's Pond at the training ground, were flooded and cleared of snow for skating. All park areas were fertilized, mowed, and maintained as usual. An ever- increasing demand for the use of the Center Common for civic and privately sponsored events has made the maintenance of this area more diffict~lt than previous years. The Public Works Department has maintained the school grounds exclusive of the huildi~gs since 1954. The areas in~lved are: Bradstreet School, 1.20 acres; Thomson School, 3.00 acres; Kittred~e School, 6.57 acres; Franklin School, 8.77 acres; North Andover ~_iddle School and Atkinson School, 38.34 acres; and the new Senior High School, 44.52 acres; a total of 102.40 acres. The varsity and junior varsity baseball fields and the track and field event facilities at the Middle School were marked out and prepared over thirty times from April to June for competitive school events with outside schools, as well as, constantly maintained for practice. The varsity, junior varsity, and freshman field hockey and baseball fields were marked out and prepared and maintained at the new high school. The High School, Thomson, Kittredge, Franklin, Atkinson, and Middle Schodl grounds and athletic fields were fertilized, mowed, and maintained as usual. The football bleachers at the Middle School were repaired, scraped, s an d e d where required, and painted. Snow pipes were placed along driveways at all the schools to prevent snow vehicles from damaging turf areas. Corrective drainage was installed at the Kittredge School to eliminate flooding in the lower classrooms. 17 Statistics of Consumption of Water 1, Population 1970 census - 16. 185 2.

Scanlon, Gas Inspector CAPITAL BUDGET COMMIITEE ANNUAL REPORT FOR 1980 The Capital Budget Committee once again found itself laboring under the artificial ceilings imposed by the second year of the Tax Cap voted by the State LegSslature. As in the past, this Committee followed its policy of supporting or opposing requests for funding of Capital Projects on the basis of their merit and allow the Town Meeting decide if the projects would be funded. The major proposals brought before the Committee this year was for the expansion of the sewer system in the Dale and Salem Street area and through the Ridgewood Cemetery to Johnson Circle down Johnson Street and up Mark Road. The replacing of the six-inch mains on Appleton Street from Salem Street to Dale Street and Marbleridge Road. The rest of the years activity was a review of requests of a more routine nature regarding equipment and expansion of the Town's playground system. As in the past, the Committee strongly supported the extension of the sewer system to protect the Lake Cochichewick watershed. It was recommended that the Sewer and Water project be bonded and Cne impact of these projects on the Town's debt structure was forcasted in our Annual Report mailed to all North Andover households before Town Meeting. I would ~ike to thank the Department Heads and the members of the Committee for their cooperation FOR THE COMMITTEE, W. E. Ensdorf 25 CML DEFEHSE Submitted herewith is my ninth Annual Report as Civil Defense Director of the Town of North Andover, Mass. This report covers the Fiscal Year ending June 30, 1980. The North Andover Civil Defense Agency is fortunate to be blessed with some very dedicated volunteers whose interests are solely directed toward adequate preparedness in the event of any emergency. Those individuals have expended considerable time and energy in future emergency planning and the update of our capabilities to enable us in better meet future contingencies. The following are some of our accomplishments for the past year: Happily, this reporting period was totally uneventful from an emergency point of view. We devoted a considerable amount of time to complete a Mini-Crisis Relocation Plan (CRP). The Town of North Andover is classified as a ]%igh risk area, therefore, the CRP is dedicated to the evacuation of ali non-essential emergency personnel in the event of a nuclear emergency to Rochester, New Hsmpshire. All Town Department Heads and the Police and Fire Chief were instrumental in the expeditious completion of this plan. We pray this plan will never have to be implemented, but we must always maintain our readiness posture at its peak. Our 1980 program paper wss approved by Mass. Civil Defense. We continue to enjoy the benefits of Federal Matching Funds reimbursement of one-half of all Civil Defense salaries and administrative expenses. Our communications personnel are in the midst of planning the refurbishment of our Emergency Operations Center (EEC) including the relocation of our Communications Center, updating all antennas and coaxial feedlines, adding some additional capability for erecting emergency antennas, installing heat and a general sprucing up of the total area to make it more conducive for use in the event of an emergency requiring personnel to operate the Eec for several days. Radio Officer Joseph Sullivan, Jr. is the driving force behind this effort with inputs from the Communications Officer Ridge]y Underwood and Auxiliary Police Chief Dennis Dionne. $2,000 was approved for this task at the 1980 Town Meeting. Completion of this project is expected in Fiscal Year 1981 and hopefully the Eec will be better able to serve its intended mission in the event of future emergencies. Our Auxiliary Police Force, with Sgt. Dennis Dionne at the helm, continues to support the Police Department in the conduct of a vandalism patrol of our local Public Schools and playgrounds, as well as traffic control of all local churches during peak traffic periods. All of the above duties are under the cognizance of the Police Chief Russell Donnelly who remains moat supportive of our efforts. The Auxiliary Police and Radio Amateur Communications Emergency Services (RACES) communicators support any town community efforts or projects such as parades, bike-a-thons, walk athons, Band concerts, Halloween patrols and any other support as may be requested by the Selectmen, Police or Fire Departments or local Town Departments. We are happy to report continuing mutual assistance planning between North Andover, Andover, and Methuen Civil Defense Groups. Andever C.D. Director Jim Johnson and Methuen Director Carroll Marcello have pledged their assistance to our cemmuni£y and have both come through to us in past emergencies (Blizzard of 78, the Northeaster of 79, etc.). Our local town departments have also been very cooperative with their conterparts in these communities in the past. Our Communications Group, under the guidance of Communications Officer Ridgely Underwood and Radio Officer Joseph Sullivan, conthlue to exercise a high degree of readiness in the event of future contingency situations requiring communications. All equipment is exercised weekly at our Eec including our fixed and mobile communications. 26 Our Civil Defense Membership at present is as follows: Auxiliary Police - Commanding Officer Sgt. Dennis Dionne, Executive Officer Ernest Harvey, Patrolmen Carl Wagoner, Hilton P. Cormey, John J. Zaeeari, Cleon Richards, Joseph Sullivan, Jr., Joseph Hamman, G. Fred Hopp~ing. RACES Communications Group - Communications Officer Ridge]y Underwood, Radio Officer Joseph Sullivan, Jr., William Sherlock, Carleton Wilson, Douglas Wilson, Richard Slade, Leonard Seiners, Gerald Rowen, Joseph Demers, and Edwin Adams. CB'ers - Joseph Whitehead and Ernest Harvey. Our Auxiliary Police contributed approximately 2500 hours cf voluntary duty to the town during this reporting period. The RACES volunteers contributed approximately 140(] hours of voluntary duty throughout the last year. 1981 loorr~ as an important year for Civil Defense in North Andover. Several ambitious proiects are either underway or well advanced in planning and these will hopefully be accomplished in 1981. These projects include updating of our Eec, further training course offerings, recruitment programs and others. Any organization dsvoted to volunteers contributing their time and efforts for the community cause can prove very fulfilling for individuals looking for a challenge to serve their fellow man. Emergency readiness is a 7 day per week, 24 hour per day effort. The pubilc interest is being served, but to do so the publics interest has to be aroused to participate in the performance of Civil Defense functions. We are ]ooking for some conscientious individuals residing in our town to serve in our Auxiliary Police Force (must be over 21 years of age). Further, we are in need of Communications persor~nel holding valid F.C.C. Radio Amateur licenses to serve with the RACES group. Any individuals, male or female, regardless of sex, race, or creed, who desire to serve as members of the North Andover Civil Defense, may contact either lhe undersigned at his home or any other member of our group for h~formation. All will be welcomed and any skills you possess will be utilized. Our accomplishments would not be possible without the staunch support rendered me my the following: The Honorable Board Of Selectmen, Executive Secretary, Mr. Brian SuDivan, Acting Police Chief, Russell Donnelly, Acting Fire Chief Dennis Currier, and their respective departments; all town department heads and staffs; Communications Officer Ridgely Underwood, Radio Officer Joseph Sullivan, Jr,, and all members of the RACES group; Sgt. Dennis Dionne and the Auxiliary Police group; Deputy C.D. Director John Lyons. Picase receive my grateful appreciation for your continuing support. Respectfully submitted, John J. Coco Civil Defense Director CONSERVATION COMMISSION Since lhe ]980 Annual Report was published, the Conservation Com~]ission has gone through quite a transition period. In Janizary of 1980, the town hired a part time secretary to work with the Commission. Michele has greatly reduced the work load of the Conservation Commission members, and has (lone an excellent job in organizing our office. We hope to be able to use Michele more in the coming year. Also, in April of 1980, four new Commissioners were appointed by the Board of Selectmen to replace four resigning members. The following months required a let of catching up on the part of the new members. At this time, however, things are working' smoothly in spite of the short adjuslment period. In July of 1980, Dr. Viceni Turano was appoinied by the Commission to serve as a volunteer consultant to the Commission, In the past year, the Commission has dealt with a hea~f schedule from the standpoints of both time commitment and number of filings. As a minbnum, the Commissien met twice monthly for public meetings, twice monthly for field site visits, and as often as twice weekly in sub-committees or work sessions. During our busiest times, members would often put in 2 or 3 nights per week. Regarding filings, the Commission accepted, held public hearings for~ and wrote Oders of Conditions for approximately 20 Notices of Intent filed with our office and with the state. Also issued, were ~1 Cease and Desist Orders, and numerous Extension Permits, Determinations of Wetland Areas. and Certificates of Compliance. Court appearances have been few, but necessary to maintain e strong policy in regards to Wetlands Protection in North Andover. Stree~ ~ Because of the time involved in upholding the Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Act, the Commission has had little time to devote to other projects such as the Town's Open Space and Recreation Plan, the A,~o'ricuItural Preservation Act, the Federal Flood Insurance Program, the acquisition of lands for Conservst~-on purposes, or other land use programs. The Commission is aimLng for much greater involvement in these programs in the comh~,g year. In summary, the Conserv~,[i:~n Commission has been fortunate in hsving dedicated members, consultants, and s~':ref~riai help. However, the heavy work load and the responsibilities are, at times, extreme. With the same perseverance and support, the Commission should realize a rewa~dinE 1981.

Most of the social activities were held at the newly-acquired Community Center. While renovations were ~oing on, the elderly have been using the community ro~ms in the elderly housing. There are two social clubs, the Friendly Club which consists of over 100 members which meets on Mondays with Betty Burtalia, and the 65 Plus Club which meets on Thursday with Joseph LaBelle as president. They have over 400 members. Health Services A health clinic for senior citizens is held every Wednesday at the Town Hall and at other times at different locations in the Town where blood pressures are taken, diabetic screenings and care on nu£~ition is given. Two registered nurses and a medical aide assist. ? ransportation A minibus is available for doctor's appointments and personal shopping. We also have a new wee-bus that takes people anywhere in the vicinity for doctor's appointments, Visitfl~g, shopping, and club meetings. This bus is also equipped for handicapped people regardless of age. Nutrition Hot meals are served through the hot lunch program and also the elderly can go any day to the Atkinson School for lunch. Over 7,000 meals were served last year at a cost of 50¢ a piece. Arts and Crafts Mrs. Eva Pelletier gives lessons in knitting, crocheting, or needle point. They meet on Tuesday mornings. Mrs. Connie Finnichiaro teaches a class in dressmaking. We also have classes in caneing, painting, and quilting. Dance Classes Every Wednesday classes are held at the VFW with Mr. and Mrs. Fred McEvoy as teachers. Also on Friday, a class is held for beginners and also an exercise class taught by our nurse Cyndy. Social Events Luncheons have been planned at the different churches in Town. Day trips to Fannuel Hall, the Kennedy Library, different theaters, and to the Pops. In May there will be a display on crafts made by the senior citizens.

Any dog picked up will not be released until properly licensed, and a warning has been filled out. We now have a system of fines for violations of the leash law. The firsl time the dog is picked up there is a warning issued for violation, plus the boarding fee. The second offense there is a twenty five dollar ($25) fine, plus the boarding fee and a ten dollar ($10) administration fee. The third offense is s thirty ($30) fine, fourth offense and there after is a fifty dollar ($50) fine. May I remind you that I just have to see the dog to issue a citation of any type. All fines are payable at-Lawrence District Court. Respectfully submitted, Gene A. Northam, Dog Officer 31 GREATER LAWRENCE SANITARY DISTRICT B A~KGRG~ The Greater Lawrence Sanitary District Wastewater Treatment Plant began operation April, 1977, and has been in continuous satisfactory operation since that time. During the past full year of operation, calendar year 1979, we processed an average 27.65 million gallons per day. Our assessed costs to the four communities are based on tlie percentage of the flow contributed by each community. In 1979, Lawrence contributed an average daily flow of 13.79 million gallons per day (48.15%) ; Methuen, 7.74 million gallons per day (27%); Andover, 4.06 million gallons per day (17.68%), while North Andover contributed 2.95 million gallons per day (17.17%). The plant is currently staffed by 59 people. Approximately 7400 tons of solids on a dry basis were removed from the wastewater during the year, dewatered on vacuum filters and incinerated. These solids otherwise would have been discharged to the Merrimack River. SEPTAGE FACILITIES Our septage facilities have been used during the year to handle septage from the residents of the four contributing communities who are not connected to the sewer. In addition, we continued and ex~panded our policy to accept septage from fourteen (14) other communities which do not have adequate treatment and would otherwise endanger the public health and pollute the rivers and streams in their areas. Tickets are purchased at the District office which permits the dumping of septage in our system. The cost for users from the four member communities is $15 - and for the communities outside the District, the rate is $15 - for a tank truck up to 2600 gallons in capacity. The rate for outside of the state, such as Salem, N.H., is $25. The monies received from the operation of the septage facility are used to reduce our subsequent year's operation and maintenance budget. OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE The plant personnel have now become very familiar and experienced in all aspects of this plant and we have been able to satisfactorily rectify all our problems anticipated in a plant of this magnitude. We now look forward to more practical and efficient ways of processing and treatment. In this regard, the GLSD has embarked on several innovative research and development projects in order that we may function more efficiently. They are: a.) The installation of a hydroelectric generator at the outfall pipe. The feasibility study was prepared by Chas. T. Main, Inc. consultant engineers. The study indicates that the installation of a hydroelectric generator will be very beneficial and its ~ayhack of $3~6.000 should be completed in 5 - 7 years. If electrical costs continue to rise, as they have in the past, the payback period will be reduced accordingly. Because of the uniqueness of this project, the GLSD was one of the 19 from 16(]0 applicants to be awarded a Department of Energy Grant that paid the total cost for the faasibiilty study. Hopefully, we will be granted s State Alternate Energy ProgTam Grant to construct this facility during the summer of 1951~ b.) We are currently advertising for the purchase of a Belt Filter Press. This one unit will replace three (3) existing large vacuum filters. Its purpose is to compress more than fifty percent (50%) additional water from our sludge. The sludge then becomes autogenous, (self-burning), and in turn significantly reduces our natural gas consumption. We estimate that our payback h~ this one piece of equipment to be six (6) months. c.) Presently, the State of Massachusetts does not allow us to use our sludge as a fertilizer 32 or as a soil conditioner because it contains some heavy metals. However, with the advent of the new E.P.A. Industry Pretreatment Regulations, mmuufacturers within our District wilt be required to recover these metals at their plmnt outfslls and thus aiiminate these unacceptable metals from our sludge. Hopefully, we will be able to eliminate our incineration process and use our sludge for soil reclamation in such areas as highway shoulders, nurseries, forests, etc. d.) The GLSD staff have been experimenting with the sludge wood-chip composting. The results of this study thus far are inconclusive and will begin again in the spring of 1981. e.) The GLSD Commission has voted to consider a proposal by the Town of Salem, New Hampshire, .to enter into our facility via the Spicket River Interceptor. The Spicket River lnter~eptor study is completed for the Towns of Salem and Methuen, and is underway for the City of Lawrence. Depending on the results of this study, the Commission Board will then consider extending its authority to construct the Spickei River Interceptor from Sa]em and to assess the Town of Salem accordingly. The obvious benefits of course, are that a fifth community wilt be contributing towards the operation and maintenance and capital costs of this facility. We do not anticipate any increase in emplos~ment as a result of this move. Our increases will be limited to chemical and pumping costs. It is our hope that the above areas of explorations will significantly reduce the assessing costs to the four member communities and at the same time maintain the high level of treatment we now enioy. BUDGET The proposed budget for the fiscal year 1982 is being considered by the Commission. Subsequent to the Commission's approvai, it will be submitted to the four communities. A yearly report covering all aspects of the plant is being prepared and will be completed in February for general distribution. 1~espeet fully submitted, John L.

Norwood Corner of Mass. Ave. and Waverly Road put in two poured concrete box type junctions for drainage from Herrick Road and also Mass. Ave. Used 50' of 36" metal pipe and two frames and grates. Did away with deep open ditch at intersection. Rebuilt one basin and replaced 40' of broken 12" drain pipe on Greene Street. Also repaired another basin on Greene Street, used two new frames and grates. Milk Street, rebui It one basin, repaired one and put new frames and grates on five existing catch basins. Put new catch basin and 60 l.f. of 12" pipe on Preveres Hi]], was done in conjunction with new drainage easement onto Preveres property: Installed one basin unit and 160 1.f. of pipe on drainage easement squired at corner of Summer and Farnum Streets. Approximately 600 catch basins were cleaned by Fmchine and 800 by hand between the months of April and May. All streets in town were swept in the spring. Brush and grass was cut at intersections and shoulders of all town roads where needed. The following streets were hottoped: Salem Street, binder and top coat from Guy Richards to Middletone line; Forest Street, from Longgalls to Missile Site Road; Hewett Avenue; Rosedale Avenue; Minute Avenue; Winter Street, Bradford to Monroes; Foster Street, Harry Foster 2000 feet toward Winter; Summer Street, Farnum Street to Crickett Lane; Mill Road. Dr-iscol]s to Johnson Street; Sandra Lane, 200 1. f.; Great Pond Road, Lelands to Miss Buckleys; Andover Street, Osgood Street to State Layout; South Bradford, Winter to M0rningside; Waverly Road, cometary to Rte. 114; Berry Street, Rte. 114 to Conroys; Milk Street; Hillside Road, Rte. 125 to Andover line; Dana Street; Johnson Street, leveling course Rea Street to Ca]zettas. The following sidewalks were repaired or resurfaced: Main Street, Arlington Bank-to Si. Michaels Parking area; Middlesex; Waverly Road, 8/10 of a mile Greene Street to Rte. 114; Union Street; Second Street; Furber Avenue; Elm Steer; and Pleasant Street. New brick sidewalks were installed on Main Street from MaPs to Kenics driveway.

Removed'bad curve and reconstructed approximately 800 1,f. of Campbell Road, Work began at the intersection of Farnum and Ash Street and preceded 8(]0 l.f. easterly towards Salem Street. Installed new 12" reinforced concrete culvert and widened the ex istin g road to about 24'. Proposition 2½ will definitely have an impact on the Highway Department and will surely effect the services that have been rendered by the town in past years. It is my intention to analyze and reeonstruct ali functions performed by this department to see the utilizatiou of men atld equipment are to maximum efficiency. However, most services provided by the Highway Department are essential and necessary for the well being of most taxpayers (especially slr~ce we are a growing community) and, therefore, it is most diffieult to come up with service reductions that would be beneficial to our overall tax structure. It does not make sense to d:iseontinue or charge for a service performed by a municipal department if the same charg~ or more is going to be incurred by getting the service from another source. We will do our best to 2ire you the best possible service at the lease possible cost, but there is no way that your Highway Department can provide essential services with any reduction, as long as our town continues to grow. We would only be kidding ourselves not to keep our road maint enanee up and continue to up g~z'ade the few rural roads that are presently in poor condition. It costs more money in the long run to maintain poor roads then it does to keep the roads in reasonably good and safe condition. I would like to express my sincere thanks to all the Highway Department staff and the Town Boards and Departments for their help and cooperation throughout the past year, and I would like to thank the people of North Andover for the privilege of serving as your Highway Surveyor. Sincerely, William A. Cyr 35 HISTORICAL COMMISSION The Old Center was nominated and accepted as a Historic District and entered on the National Historic Register. A bronze plaque monted on a granite slab was erected on the site. The text reads: In the 164(l's a group of English families moved from coastal Massachusetts to establish a new community here. In this neighborhood they built their homes and a meeting house. The Historical Commission submitted the necessary documentation for the nomination of the Machine Shop Village to the National Historic Register. The year was marked by North Andover's 125th anniversary on April 7. Commission members coordinated efforts with the schools, the local newspaper, churches, Stevens Library, and the July 4th Committee to note the Town's anniversary year. Improvements to the Blacksmith Shop site were accomplished. The Commission continues to oversee the maintenance of the site, which is located in the Old Center. Substantial work on the Town's Historic Inventory has been done by Commission members and Mr. James Peters of Boston University. The Commission continued to provide technical assistance to various groups, and established liason with the recently established Downtown RevitaLization Commission. Respect fuBy submitted, Thomas W.

Morkesl~i, the Authority's 32nd Annual Report for fiscal year ending September 30, 1980. This report has been prepared in accordance with Chapter 12IB of the General Laws of Massachusetts, which governs housing aufhorities. The Authority, because of the nature of its organization, has a dual responsibility. It first, to the best of its ability, must address the housing needs of the low and moderate income families of our town in a manner which is beneficial to all residents and neighborhoods. Secondly, it must administer its programs to achieve its overall housing objectives in a fiscally responsible way, which is in the best interest of our funding agencies. During the year, the Authority is pleased to state, that it has assisted and provided low rent subsidized units for approximately 300 citizens of our town. These low rent units are distributed in four developments, which consist of 134 units elderly and 24 units of veterans housing. As well as our publicly owned apa~'tments, the Authority also administers, through the use of Federal funds, a rental subsidy program. The program subsidizes tenants in existing housing that is funded pursuant to Section 8 of the United States Housing Act of 1937. An Annual Contribution contract of $75,888,00 has been executed by the Board and the Federal Department of Housing and Urban DeveIopment. This program is designed to provide a Federal Subsidy for housing to eligible moderate and low income families, as well as to elderly individuals. The goal of the program is to coordinate both the private and public sector for the purpose of meeting the housing needs of our community. It offers North Andover resident families, in need of housing or housing assistance, a choice of residence amoung virtually every apartment that qualifies within the Housing Code Guidelines and Fair Market Rental Guidelines. The success of this program is greatly dependent upon the support of our local Landlords, which I am pleased to report, have been most cooperative. The Authority is further committed to aid in remedying the financial burden of housing for our residents. As of the publieafion of this report, the Authority has a pending application with HUD for the financial resources to fund an additinnal 32 units. New programs are constantly being investigated to promote the expansion of housing programs that address the needs of our community. Two very significant programs are currentl}, in the process of being developed, They include the funding of two (2) Federal Elderly Housing Projects. One of which, McCabe Court, a 45 unit elderly and handicapped development, will be open aa of December 1, 1980. This development represents the most contemporary construction system, all which achieved within an architectual concept and geometric form, that re. fleets New England and our community. The development was 100% Feder~illy funded. The loan authority of this project is $1,840,(]00.00. This amount will be amorfized over a forty (40) year period with an annualized contract authority of $132,094.00. In the fall of 1981, the Autl~lority will begin construction of its fifth housing complex. A sixty (60) unit elderly and handicapped housing complex awarded by HUD, totaling $2,383,740.00 of loan authority, with an annualized contract authority of $171,(]81.00 over a forty (40) year period. The specific housing objective of this project is in the planning stages, However, the Authority seeks an overall housing development that will achieve innovative and creative a~chitectual treatment. The development will incorporate meaningful special deaig~ features and high quality construction techniques that will reflect the requirements of future energy and maintenance considerations. It is also the belief of the Authority Board that each development shall be located so as to enhance the neighborhood and provide the catalyst for neighborhood stabilization. The record to date, of the Authority, has been substantial both by the number of housing units constructed, as well as the high caliber of the developments. Thus, with this foundation, we face the increasing volume of pending applications and prospective family and'elderly town residents, who find it ever more difficult to provide housing facflities within the 'realm of their incomes. 37 As the private housing sectors future becomes more uncertain, the Authority will need to become increasingly concerrled with various housing programs of the State and Federal Agencies. We have become most attentive to the interactions of public housing as it affects the Town. Although growth in inevitable, it must be growth that is comprehensive and produces results which are equitable to the needs of all town residents of all income categories. Therefore, the role of the Authority for the 8O's, must be expanded to include in scope, other areas of housing. Primarily to provide the vehicle by which private housing can be more readily available to moderale income families, either through cooperative equity ownership or condominiums. This is necessitated because of the large and significant number of our town's younger families that are subject to the hardship of providing adequate housing within their financial capabilities for our community. This concern has been expressed to the Authority by various groups for a possible solution, ltowever, the availability of convential public housing programs are for families who earn 80% of medium ihcome or below, and do not provide for eventual ownership or equity positions. Althougb the Authority can assist low and moderate income families within public housing or rental subsidies, it can do very little for the median income family without the full support of community boards. The continuing increases in the cost of construction, land costs, rigid zoning, and municipal regulations are retarding the opportunity for home ownership. The inability of our community's median income families to purchase and maintain housing must be addresses through a cooperative community effort. The Authority expresses its sincere appreciation to the Town Departments and citizens of North Andover who supported and assisted the Authority in the development of our much needed Elderly Housing Developments, and in our continous effort to provide adequate housing ibr all residents of our community.

Norwood, Jr. The New McCabe Court, l!]der!y Itousfng Project on Belmont Street 38 PERSONNEL BOARD The Personnel Board is the authorization board for all step-rate increases, longevity increments, terminal Ieave and classification of Town Employees. The 19~0 Annual Town Meeting Warrant contained fourteen Articles which dealt with cost of living increases, addition of a police lieutenant classification, the addition and classification of a town planner, and a Public Works water analyst watershed inspector. The Pcrsonnel Board holds monthly meetings at the Town Hall meeting room. Many hearings were also held iu 19S0. The Board would like to see the administrative employees' positions re-surveyed to make sure that wages are in line with other communities of the same size. The members of tile Personnel Board are volunteers who very willingly give of their time and effort for their Town. Respectfully submitted, William D, Blackstock, Chairman Connie Connors, Secretary Robert F. Johansen Cecelia Landry Michael Leery Joseph Willis PLANNING BOARD The Planning Board again maintained a very full schedule of meetings this year, with twenty-three regular meetings and ten special meetings, including four work-shop sessions. Durhlg the year, the Board held twenty-one public hearings. Two preliminary subdivision plans were reviewed and font definitive subdivision plans were submitted to the Board. Both the preliminary plans were approved, and at the end of the fiscal year, two of the definitive plans had been approved. While the membership remained the same for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1950, two of our members arc no longer on the Beard. Mr. Joln~ Monteiro, who served on the Planning Board for many years, passed away in August, and Mrs. Joyce DiTore resigned her position the same month. We would like to take this opportunity to express our sincere appreciation for IVlr. Monteiro's long and dedicated service to the Town of North Andover in his position as a member of the Planning Board. Also, we would like to express the same appreciation to Mrs. DiTore for her service to the Town. In addition, although she left us after the end of the fiscal year, we would also like to e;cpress appreciation to Mrs. Gilda Blackstock. Gilda accepted a poaition with the North Andover Police Department in August of 1980, and her years as secretary to the Planning Board are greatly appreciated. We extend a sincere "good luck" to her in her new position. Our meetings continue to be well attended by interested citizens and we thank them for their interest and input. We also thank the Town Boards, Officials, and Town Counsel for their continued cooperation. Respectfully submitted, PLANNING BOARD William Chepulis, Chairman Pau3 A.

Respect fully submitted, Russell Donnelly, Chief North Andover Police Dep~rtment 4l SCHOOL COMMII'rEE ~ Your School Committee is charged with the responsibility to provide for the instruction of all children attending our public schools. To accomplish this purpose requires the Committee to address a wide range of issues including review and approval of the instructional program, provision of a competent staff of teachers and administrators, maintaining adequate school buildings and facilities, establishing and implementing specific annual goals, preparing a budget to meet these responsibilities, and to submit the budget to the Annual Town Meeting for approval. During this year, the Committee held regularly scheduled open mattings to plan and complete its work. While we feel wa have served you and our students well, we are compelled to credit the teachers and administrators for the cooperation and expert service they have rendered In ~rch of 1980, Mr. Richard Haltmaier retired from our Committee after twelve years as a member. His accomplishments are too numerous to mention in this report, but we wish to express our appreciation to Mr. Haltmaier for his most valuable service to the students and the citizens of our community. Six specific educational goals were established for the 1979-80 academic year. They included programs to implement the State mandated regulations regarding minimum basle competency; to continue our own emphasis on basic skills development; to continue the stress on teaching good citizenship; to implement new social studies and arithmetic programs; to examine the curricuium to determine the extent to which thc needs of all students, including the very talented, were being met; and finally to encourage energy conservation. These goals have been successfully achieved and we can report some of the more significant results. An Advfsory Committee of citizens and educators was formed to prepare a plan for implementing the State mandated program to set standards of minimum competency in reading, writing, and mathematics. In May 1980, the plan was submitted to the School Committee and received approval. Students will he tested and evaluated at grades four, eight, and ten to assure that a basic level of skills has been attained. For those few students who may not achieve these standards, remedial programs have been set in place to help them accelerate to an acceptable level. The emphasis on good citizenship has certainly been successful, as is attested by the decrease in vandalism in the schools. The cost of repairing broken glass decreased approximately two thousand dollars relative to previous years. Energy conservation measures have led to decreases in the consumption of oil and electricity in our schools. On a system wide basis, the use of these fuels is about ten percent less this year. This success is due to the efforts of school system personnel, a cooperative purchasing plan, and a new Honeywell control system. In addition to these specific educational goals, the Committee also completed a survey of school building needs. A continuing growth in the school population led the Committee to retain Dr. John M~rsha]l to conduct this survey. After reviewing the finds of this study, it was concluded that while some overcrowding may he Expected, it will be temporary and no new school buildings are being planned. As always, a major effort was directed to planning and finalizing a budget to meet the needs of the students while being responsive to the taxpaying citizens. 'lhe budget went through at least six revisions over a period of several months and when finally presented at the Annual Town Meeting, it was approved overwhelmingly. Y~re than two thirds of the To~zn Meeting m~mbers voted to override the four percent tax cap to s~pport the School C~mmittees fiscal recommendation. This year was also a period of significant changes in personnel. The retirement and resignation of several key members of our staff led to the appointment of new Department Heads for the English, Guidance, and Business/Vocational programs at the High School; an elementary school principal; and a new Director of Special Needs Education. ~ese appointments were made only after candidates were intervimwed by the Committee and Superintendent and their rezords of previous performance were thoroughly reviewed. In addition, there were some thirty-seven new appointments to our teaching staff. We feel that the new personnel selected are highly qualified to serve the students of North Amdover. We are pleased to submit this summary of School Committee activities as well as the accompanying detailed report of the Superintendent. North Andover School Committee Leslie C. Bernal, Ed.D. Chairman James P. Cordon Mark S. DiSalvo John J. Gaffny, III Robert E. Mascola Br~:lstreet Schoolyard 43 Annual Report of the Suoeri~tendent of Schools Dear Members of the School Committee and Citizens: i am privileged to present to you my annual report as your Superinnendent. This is my thirteenth annual report, and the l~5th of a continuous series. Also, this is the 93rd report prepared by the Superintendent of the North At, dover Public Schools and covers the period from duly 1, 1979 to June 30, 1980. Recently, I received the annual reports of all the administrators and supervisors in the North Andover Public Schools. The majority of these reports, sections of which you will find in this annual report, all seem to dwell on the mcademic year 1979-80 as the year of "Basics% basic~ in reading, mathematics, writings, etc. Our ~gsic Ski]Is Improvement Pro- grams, as mandated by the State Department of Education, moved in a very m~thodical and systematic manner from our staff committees to the Citizens' Advisory Committee to th~ Administration, the School Committee and ultimately to thm State Department of Edocation -- receiving approval at each checkpoint. Hence, our State mandated ~asic ~nim~m Competency" plan was made ready for implementation and will be used dnring the 1980-81 academic year in grades 3, 6 and 9. You will learn much more about this plan in the year ahead and from the following reports of staff members. Again, the c~tizens of North A~dover showed its confidence in the educational programs of the North Andover Public Schools by approving a school budget at the Annual Town Meeting that exceeded the tax cap and provlded for an increase of 9~93% over the previous year. We are most grateful to the voters and we pledge our efforts to ascertaining a continned educa- tional nrogram of high quality. Certainly, the fiscal challenges will not disappear an~ ~e know that we shall be forced to become mo~e resourcef~l anR ~reative in all that we do ~n the 1980's. We accept this challenge knowing that cur yonth are w~]l deserving of all the efforts expended by us and the community as a whole. Dur ~ystem goals as approved by the School Committee for the academic year ]9?9-80 were: GOAL I To i~plement the State mandated regulations regarding minimum basic competency. DOlL II To continue emphasis on the development of attributes of good citizenship in ~egard to self, family~ school and £o~mmunity. GOAL [I! 'Po imp]emeat the new social studies and arithmetic programs a~ ~v~lop accompanying skill g~ides, concept development and related activities by grade level. COAL JV To deveioD a program that will encourage the conservation of energy Rt home, at school and in the community. /~I1AL V T~ ~xamine the curric~ium and its effectiveness relative to the need~ of the glf~ed and talented students. COAL Vi To continue the emphasis on basic skills in reading, writing, listening and speaking. Tllcse goals were accomolished for the most part to the benefit of our students and £ncluded curriculum improvements in career education, good citizenship~ vandalism, arithmetic and social studies. More details regarding these goals will be found in the individual reports ~nrollme~_~j Building Needs On OCtcD.~F ~ ?~/!', ei!r~ilment figures showed an overall decrease of 39 pupils. ~e total enru]]mept oz! OctoBer 2, ].979 was 3,569 as compared to 3,608 pupils for the previous October lst~ The m~!~oz~iJ~? .-f the 39 pupil decrease, 22 to be exact, was on the elementary level -- and to be even ~,lore precise on the kindergarten level. Although we had a net loss of so~e S9 pupils as of October 2, 1979, we completed the academic year in June 1980 with an increase of some 65 pupils for the year or a total of 3~634 pupils. Again, this is very significant when we know that school systems all over ~he State are losing school ~pu]ations. With this gre~th ~n mind, the School Cormmittee selected the late Dr. John Marshall to conduct a School Building Needs Survey. This building needs survey was completed in the late fall of 1979. In our last annual report, we stated that we would discuss Dr. Marshall's report openly with the c~tizens of North Andover. This was done at various School Committee meetings throughout the year ~nd at public meetings held in the community. What is a school survey? A survey of school needs starts by seeking answers to three fundamental questions: 2. Existing School Plant 3. Educational Programs Conclusions and recomn~endations of the Marshall Report: i. Enrollment The ~irst question, about enrollment, is explored in Section II, which ~ollows. The dec]inin% number of births to North Andover parents is charted. The effect of new residential construction is assessed. The impact of enrollment at non-public schools is explored. Charts showing recent past and projected future enrollmmnt show elementary school enrollment (now 1506 in grades K-5) already beginning a slew decli~e from the 1527 of last year. Middle School enrollment (now 881 in grades 6, 7 ~nd g) is expected to rise slightly for about four years and then tun] downward. Nigh School enrollment (now 1175 in grades 9-12) will probably rise for six or seven years (reflecting recent rising enrollment in lower grades) and then turn downward (reflecting declining births and enrollment patterns in grades below H~ gh School). 2. Existing Buildings North Andovmr's available educational plant facilities range from excellent to poor, but even ~h~ poorest does not demand ~ntmediate replacement. Section Ii of this report discusses facilities provided and thei~ capacities. 3. The Educational Progr~ With a first-rate n~w senior high school to serve most students in grades 9-q2, and ~ith a share of the Greater L~wrence Vocational Technical School to mee[ ceztain special interests and aptitudes, North Andover~s High School program is excellent for today's needs and flexible for tomorrow's. Current overcrowding at the Middle and elementary school levels will be relieved as enrollment declines, and will make available space for needed improvements in the provision of special servicas~ Problem Stated "Most simply stated, North Andover's school problem is the threat of overcrowding with burgeoning school enrollments at the elementary and Middle School levels grasping every avail- able area ~or classroom space, and leaving the school system nowhere to go if additional pupils arrive or if the school program turns in new directions. Makeshift spaces are already in use at every school below the senior high. W~tbout doubt, this is hampering education in a variety of ways; yet there appears to be no major fault in the educational A!ogram that can be corrected at once by changes in school facilities. 45 Among the ~itermat~ves explored ~,'ere a change of grade organization that would house town- wide enrollment in grades four amd five in Atkinson gnd Frank]in, using the remaining elen~entary ~l~]est an~ least adequate, and perhaps using it as a central administrative office and instruc school to replace Bradstreet a~d Thomsen, neither of which is large ~not~gh to use special spaces During the past school year, 29 pupils were placed in neighboring school systems. Andover students attended school in the following locations: Bancroft School Andover 5 Lawrence Vocational School Andovar 2 East Junior High School Andover 2 Burke Hospital Lawrence 1 Collaborative Center Lawrence 5 Methuen High - T.E.P. Methuen 6 Methuen High - Pre-T.E.P. Methuen 2 Stephen Barker School Methuen 1 Clinical Nursery North Andover 4 North The Substantially Separate class at the Bradstreet School serviced 7 pupils. Of these, 2 were from Andover, 2 from Methuen and 3 from North Andover. In-Service Training During the past year, the following major in-service workshops were held: 1. Parents A. Overview of North Jo]dover's Spmcial Needs Programs Lead Reading Program Workshop C. 8 Week Pre-School Parent Support Group Regular and Special Needs Teachin~ Staff (Guidance Counselors and Nursing Staff Included) A. Overview of the North Andover Speech Therapy Program B. Pediatric Nmurology In-Service Workshop C. Mainstreaming the Special Needs Child On a monthly basis, other opportunities for information exchange and professional develop- ment on a smaller scale were provided. Special Needs - Federal Grants - 1979-80 P.L. 94-142 Project Help $45,700 This project provided: 1. Salary for 2 Resource Room Teachers: 1 at the Middle School 1 at the Thomson School 2. Salary for an hourly Speech Therapist at the Bradstreet School 3. Salary for the Adaptive Physical Education Teacher - system-wide 4. Materials and equipment 5. Travel for tt~e Adaptive Physical Education Teacher 6. In-Service Training 7. An independent evaluation for the project This project and all the North Andover Special Needs Programs are in the process of receiving an evaluation from Dr. Janice Goldstein. ~he independent evaluator for the program. The Special Needs "Collaborative Center" The Collaborative Center provides an intensive educational and therapeutic alternative high school program. This year, Mr. Charles Fiske was hired as the new program director for the Collaborative Center. This program is one of the "success stories" of joint funding between the Department of Mental Health which f~nds the director and therapeutic staff and the school departments which fund the educational staff. Unfortunately, each community is allocated only 5 pupil places. There is a need to develop similar programs so that additional pupils can be serviced. Kindergarten Screenin~ September and October~ 1979: The "Meetingstreet School Screening Test" was adopted for use as the assessment instrument beginning in September, 1978. It was found that although the screening test itself was appropriate, the scores varied from school to school because the kindergarten teachers gave the test and had the advantage of seeing their assigned kinder- garten students prior to the testing. For the screening beginning in September 1979, it was redesigned so that a Team cover each school. Each Team consisted of a Guidance Counselor, Learning Disability Teacher and Speech Therapist. The kindergarten teachers monitored their classes during this period. It was felt by the kindergarten teachers that the screening itself should not be held during the first few weeks of school because the children are naturally confused and not used to the school schedule. The screening, therefore, was held between October 2 and October 9, 1979. Total 161 Tested 8 Re-Tested 4 Referred - 2 vision; 2 hearing System-Wide Curriculum Programs 1. A-V Department Mr. John R. Robinson, Audio-Visual and Data Processing Coordinator, reports high usage of audio-visual materials throughout the school year. His records verify good system-wide utilization of audio-visual software. The new Sony Betamax VTR equipment acquired under a Federal Title IV Project has provided mxcellent performance and permitted a surplus in the repair budget. During the month of July, two-way cable will be installed at the High School. This system will allow program origination from our studio into the cable network system which includes all of our schools. 2. Data Processin~ This has been a year of improved service from the data processing center at Greater Lawrence Regional Vocational Technical High School. Attendance System Accounting problems were largely resolved. Scheduling and gradm reporting problmms were corrected. With the addition of terminals at the High School, we will gain a better control of input and updates. 3. Art The past year saw the Art Department taking part in many school-co,unity related art pro- jects as well as national events and activities. Art Department personnel were involved with integration of art with other disciplines as well as with designs for plays, posters, awards programs and brochures. The department once again achieved recognition in the Boston Globe National Scholastic Art Awards Exhibit with our students bming awarded gold keys. High School students were selected and did attend the Saturday Art Class Program sponsored by the Massachusetts College of Art. High School graduates were accepted into art programs in art schools, oolleges and universities throughout the country. Art fairs, combined with musical programs and learning fairs were held throughout the system, with art personnel in attendance to meet with parents to discuss the program and explain art techniques used in displays. 4. Music The music education program in the North Andover Public Schools should be considered as a curriculum with five basic components as follows: A. The Basic Music Program B. The Special Needs Music Program C. The Choral Music Program D. The Band and Instrumental Music Program E. The Orchestral and String Music Program The general music program this year was successful in many goals it had set out to achieve: students at all levels accepted and actively demonstrated solid musical skills and understand- ing. More gifted students from general music classes performed for their classes and soaght out membership in one of the performing groups. The choral program did make much progress this year also. One of the more noticeable areas was the selection of music performed by the elementary chorus. Pride in membership has increased, and with the support of the administration, the enrollment is steadily increasing at this level. On the Middle School level, the scheduling of chorus into the school day has had a tremen- dous effect on the numbers enrolled. The enthusiasm of the Middle School chorus and singing in general has very much been on the increase this year. The Middle School chorus performed publicly at Christmas, participated in the Northeast District Auditions, Young Artist Night, Spring Fair and the Spring Concert and Middle School Graduation. The choral program on the High School level seemed most successful in making the member- ship, in the eyes of the school population, prestigious. The chorus attendance at a clinic at Plymouth State College in November was ~ catalyst in setting the tone for the ~c~ool year, It appeared that the chorus members had bemn exposed to "live" excellent performing groups, some for the first time. Ihe elementary band program had a very successful year in the following areas: A. Techniques acquired by the grade 4 + 5 youngsters made the selection of music performed to be that of a very high level for this age level. B. The pride of being a member in the elementary bands is excellent. C. The scheduling of instrumental classes was conducive to a more solid lesson. The strong support from the administration as well as the temchers allowed for wore assemblies, flexibility in working with the slower students as well ss the gifted. At the Middle School, the band program met with the following success as it rmlates to the goals for the year: A. Student awareness of musical goals and pride in membership grew steadily throughout the year. B. Music performed by the bands has grown since last year. C. Interest in performing at the Northeast District Auditions, Young Artist Night was out- standingly high. D. Scheduling of instrumental classes with some opportunity to teach brass, woodwinds, and percussion allowed for more solid reinforcement of basic skills. At the High School, the lack of sutficient band members is a problem. A. New uniforms acquired at the High School this year helped the morale of the band. B. Selection of music was provided which allowed all students, beginners included, to perform well in the marching band. C. One student was chosen to play at the "All-State Concert"; one chosen for the All-State Orchestra and Jazz Band. D. The stage band performance at the Sports Jamboree was excellent. E. Attempts to recruit more members into the band program were many on the part of the band director; one solid opportunity that should be repeated annually Js the visit to the band room by the grade 8 students. F. Performances at Christmas, Young Artist, Greater Lawrence Talent Show, Spring Concert were good. The success of the string program this last year lie in the following areas: A. Acquisition of new "long string instruments" made'it possible to expand the range and B. The techniques of the string students at the Middle School level were evidenced by three participation in the Young Artist Night, and one of these placing 2nd in the Coocert. allowed for very solid musical foundations in the string classes. E. Supplies for the string students allowed for much variety within the playing abilities 5. Communlty School-Evening School and Alternative Hi~!~oo~ Mr. ,[ames O'Neill, Director of the North Andover Community School reported that 1,618 citizens attended our evening program during the fall and spring of 1979-80 school year, and that twenty-four pupils attended our Alternative High School culminating with thirteen students receiving their diplomas at the Nigh School graduation in June of 1980. 6. SumPter School The North Andover Summer School ~as ~n session from July 5~ 1979 to August 1, 1979 for the July 5, 1979 to August 15, 1979. Summer School D~rector, Mrs. Michelle M. Fitzpatrick, reports that the twentieth annual varied course offerings were available. was $2,306.45 or at a per pupil cost rate of $5.10. Receipts of $7,477~00 were returned to 7. Health Education loss of grade. and in grade twelve, classes have been co ed. The areas of venereal diseases, family life not have parental approval are rescheduled into regular physical education classes. The health education curriculum guide, ~hicb was updated and revised, includes the inclusion of health topics within a comprehensive program extending from K 12 with full attention to scope completed the high standards of the American Red Cross. ~0 8. Career Education Under Public Law 94-482, a grant was received that when coupled with previous grants enabled us to hook up our terminal with the computer at Greater Lawrence Vocational High School. The Guidance Information Service program then became accessible by'our students in North Andover High School. This program has files on: Armed Service Occupation, Civilian Occupations, 2 Year Colleges, 4 Year Colleges, Graduate School File and Financial Assistance File. Since its inauguration in February, the coonselors report nearly continuous usage by High School students. Mr. Regan was most helpful to me in bringing this program to fmtitlon and it was with sincere regret that he could not see the actual implementation. A very successful Career Day was held at North Andover High School~ organized and implemented by the Guidance Department. Positive feedback was received from both speakers and students. The Middle School continued its previous program of Career Days at the sixth and seventh grade levels. These have been broadened in the scope of the occupations included and appeared well received by students, faculty and resource persons. Community resource persons were also used at the elementary grades where appropriate to the 9. Guidauce Despite the unfortunate prolonged absence of Guidance Director Thomas L. Regan, due to illness, the many and varied guidance services extending from pre-kindergarten to post high school were faithfully discharged by members of the guidance staff and administrators. All testing programs were administered according to schedule. R~sults were carefully studied and curriculum implications noted by staff and reported to the Superintendent of Schools and the School Committee. Statistics for the Class of 1980 indicate that 72.1% of the graduates plan to ft~rther tbelr educatio¢ at four-year colleges and universities or at junior colleges and post-secondary schools. Graduates entering or seeking employment represent 24.1% of tNe class and 2.1% plan to enlist in the Armed Services. Those categorized as "other" constitute 1.7%. An excellent working relationship existed between the Guidance Department mtaf~ and the Special Needs staff to meet the student needs and the statutory requirements of Chapter 766. There was no backlog of core evaluations or educational plans. The Work Study Program ir~vcl]vecl twenty-nine students. The participating pupils received five credits, two and one ball credits, one credit or no credit for their involvement in the program, depending on the length of time of the work. A meeting for parents/guardians of grade eight students was conducted April 8, I980. purpose of this meeting was to acquaint parents with the various programs and curriculum choices available at the High School. ~inally, the Guidance Department at the High School sponsored a Financial Aid Night t()r parents of senior students. The speaker was Mrs. Christine Mordach, Director of Financial Aid at Merrimack College. Elementary Schools K-8 Permit me to briefly review the status of the elementary school curriculum durinK the year 1979-80. 1. Readin~ One has to be pleased with the development of reading skills itl our elealentary s¢:hools~ A non reader is a rarity. Those students, few in number, who are not completely served by our co-basal program and various supplemental enrichment activities, are referred to remedial read- ing classes and/or the services of the Special Needs Department. The most recent achievement 2. Spelling and Handwriting i recommend that a Spelling Curriculum Committee be organized next September for the study of the present program and to recommend for the future. The present Merrill Spelling Series is quite old and out of print. Since 1973, this textbook series bas been useful. Now is the time co update the spelling curriculum. There ara no problems with our formalized handwriting program. This is a contracted service with the Rinehar: Company. ThEy provide lessons a~d a monthly evaluation of samples of student writing which we submit to the company, I have seen evidence this year that an improved transfer of skills from the spelling tests and the handwriting samples to consistent everyday application is taking place. This ia encouraging. 3. Language Arts in reading, writing, listening and speaking. We ara making headway in improvement of written indicator of writing proficiency. With writing being a specific area in the State assessment of basic skills, emphasis, of necessity, will increase. Also, much attention will be given to th~ listening skills area since we must develop an acceptable plan for evaluating the listen- lng skills of our students for implamantation in Septembar~ 1981. Our o~n initiatives plus which should be increasingly appareat. 4. Social Studies the Social Studies Curriculum Co~m~ittee in June, 1979, recommended the Macmillan Social Studies drawn universal acceptanae and praise from teachers. The 1979 edition of the D. C. Heath Math 6. Science dreary textbook science approach, process science (SCIS II) is decidedly preferable. The reoort prepared by tize outside evaluation team from Merrimack Education Center dated June 27, i980, w:s ]au~ ory of ~h~ local Title I Program. The following e~cerpts are quota- tions from the report. "One of the basic components of North Andover's instructional operation was careful and on-goii)~ individualization of each student's instructional program." "The substantial gains reflected by the pre-post test scores are a direct result of the Zact that the North kndovar Title I teaching team conducted an efficient, sophisticated, individualized program of instruction throughout the project year." "The Noruh Andover Title I Pcogram is well-coordinated and the rapport between the staff and tile ~lJii~agement seem3 to b= excellent. The administrative and instructional staff are highly competent prolessionals who have developed positive relationships with the children served and have provided appropriate instructional services". 8. Remedial Readin~ Remedial and developmental reading services are available and warm employed to assist some 500 readers with proble~is. New department members, Mrs. Carole-J~an Donohue and Mrs. A!exandra Driscoll were fine staff additions. A new text, the Oates-MacGinitie will be used to diagnose needs and measure pupil progress next year. In summation, mentio~ should be made of the contribution made to the elementary program by the specialists in music, physical education, art, guidance, library science and [earning disabilities. The opportunities which they provide, coupled with a strong basic skills cur- riculum, constitutes a tine elementary education program. Hish School 9-12 The following ~xcerpts from Principal Daniel L. Desmond's Annual R~port to the Suoerin- tendent ~ighligbt the accomplishments of students and staff. 1. Instructional Materials Center One of the primary design features of our school was the library. It was situated in a setting that would be accessible and encourage faculty and student use. The daily circulation statistics show 1978 -- 44 units per day; 1979 -- 56 units per day; and 1980 -- 66 units per (lay. Although our daily attendance in the IMC is lower this year than 1979, th~ total circulation [or 1980, 11,203, is considerably higher than 1979, 9,757. There is little doubt that our media services is the library are serving our educational program well. The emphasis is on service to the teacher and class needs. 2. Mathematics The High Sch~lol's 3~ath Team, under the capable tutelage of Mrs. ,7ud~th Watson and Mr. Thomas McGowan, did exceptionally well this year, finishing second in the league. The overall "Mean" score from 1976 through 1980 is: Year of Graduation Me__a]~ No. of Students Range 1976 493 20] 240 - 760 1977 496 204 250 - 790 1978 503 219 260 - 750 1979 501 232 280 - 760 1980 525 216 240 - 8~0 ~. Science The collage board achievement scores increased considerably in 1979 over 1978. In the area of curriculum, the science department has developed a syllabus for a new course, Energy, for the coming academic year. Mr. Daniel Jaffa, the major contributor to the development of this course, was one of four teachers selected from New England to attend a national con- ference concerned with energy. Another accomplishment of significance to our science program was the development and use of departmental examinations for our students. This is a step to further coordinate courses taught by different teachers. For the first time in a number of years, our students and teachers have organized a Science Club which will continue next year and hopefully become very active. 4. Social Studies The social studies department had a very active year beginningwith what has become an annual mffort, Mr. Strobel's two day "Senior Citizens" seminar with his Sociology classes. This year, there were twelve people ~rom our Town who participated in the seminar. ~other worthy endeavor by the department involved speakers from our local police department, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and other social service agencies from the Greater Lawrence 5. Vocational Education In business education, the department continued to be active with the teachers completing in-service courses in Introduction to Computer Science and additional funding being sought for more in-service training. One of our students, Karen Long, Class of 1980, became the first North Andover High School student to win the annual Law Day contest sponsored by the Lawrence Bar Association. Paul Spadafore should share in bar honor, as he counseled and encouraged her participation ~n this program. The Business Club was very active. The president presented Miss Claire Torpey with a $100 check to purchase special dictionaries for the advanced classes. Homc Economics Our home economics 5eachers were very active during this past year with the implementation a service unit in Foods Ill that proved to be a good ince~tive for those students and a popular activity with the faculty. gpecial group activities included: A. Christmas buffet and fashion show B. Christmas party for pre-school children C. Spring fashion round-up and tea 7. iDdustrial Arts The introduction of the course, Small Engines, into our curriculum proved to be a big success w~th our students. As a direct result of this course, Michael Cannelia was placed with a mower service company, a~d two others, Peter Edwards and David Perkins, were placed in an apprentice program with Lawrence Pump. Mr. Lee Teitel, teacher, arranged career information services for high technology industries, especially technical drawing and electronics. This included guest speakers and tours of several facilities. 54 In conclusion for this department, it should be noted that a total of $18,992 was received as & result of the proposal writing of Miss Claire Torpey and other members of the Vocational Education Department. 8. ~r~ign Lan~uag~ The foreign language department continued to offer a blend of bringing specialists into the classroom, tile French Immersion program, and tutorial services in the resource penter to augment the regular classroom instructional program. Student participation in Language Honor Societies and National Contests continues to be significant and is an indication of high interest in the study of foreign languages. Teacher participation is high and necessary if students are to continue these interests. 9. System-Wide On a school wide basis, there were a number of significant activities conducted by staff members as well as students. A. Three faculty committees researched, studied and rendered reports to the entire faculty which subsequently unanimously approved the reports of these committees. The committees were: 1. National Honor Society Constitutiom 2. Honor Roll Review Achievement Level Review B. The New England Association of Schools and Colleges' Commission on Public School Accreditation received and approved the Two-Year Report of P~ogress d~e in November of 1982. C. The "I Care Day", in concert with the "International Year of the Child", was a success- ful endeavor, as was the Powder Puff Football contest that earned funds for the March of Dimes. D. In the area of community relations, such programs as "Adopt a Grandparent" and the Bloodmobile, sponsored by our National Honor Society, were most s~ccessful. E. The fall Parent Conferences were very successful, as were the Financial Aid Night and Grade E~ght Parent Orientation Programs. Our annual Honor Society Banquet was well attended and received by teachers, students and parents. F. We would be remiss if we were to overlook the accomplishments of our athletic tea~s. They are well known, and it is sufficient to note that our teams won four league championships: Cross Country, Basketball, Wrestling and Baseball; Divisional Championships in Wrestling~ Lowell Invitational Christmas Wrestling Tournament; State and New England Wrestling Championships; and the Greater Lawrence Baseball Invitational Tournament. Certainly, success cannot be measured only by championship teams, as the other athletic programs were equally successful in the opport~aities to participate, compete, and learn to become a team player confronted w~th the kinds of adversities and triumphs indigenous with interscholastic activities. The following excerpts from Mr. Rex's report will highlight transportation, buildings Students started arriving in the Wood Ridge development in November of 1979. By June, we lines. Population growth has required that children be placed where there is room for them. As Wood Ridge and Heritmge Green children are enrolled in the Atkinson, Thomson and Kittredge Schools. Additionally, we have the requirement to place Special Needs students ~t schools which have suitable programs regard]ess of where they live. Many field trips are made each year. We show a three-year history. # of # of Pupils # of # of # of Total Trips Involved Adults Miles Buses Cost 1977-78 83 4,260 347 4,592 106 $5,534 1978-79 87 5,239 371 4,152 129 5,173 1979-80 95 5,145 368 4,705 129 6,113 Average Trip 1977 78 41 3 44 52.21 1978-79 41 3 32 40.10 1979-80 40 3 37 47.39 Four-year table of bus riders: ]979-80 1978-79 1977-78 1976-77 High School (9-12) 527 535 538 445 Middle School (6-8) 442 448 375 410 Elementary (1-5) 878 786 757 753 Kindergarten ]7] 175 162 156 Total - Public 2,018 1,944 1,832 1,764 St. Michael (1-8) 99 12] 155 171 St. Michael (Kindergarten) 15 Total 2,132 2,065 1,987 1,935 Approximately 55 percent of the public school children were bused (2,018 from enrollment of 3,641 in dune). This shows a continuing trend of slow increase as the more distant parts of town are developed. Buildings Highlights during the 1979-80 school year follow: A. Roof repairs were made at the Middle and High Schools. B. A new oil burner was purchased arid installed in the Thomson School. C. Combustion chambers were repaired at the Thomson and Bradstreet Schools. D. A three-year table of glass breakage is given as a matter of general interest.

The front of the Bradstreet School was refurbished in that all windows were replaced with energy efficient and break-resistant aluminum windows. It is planned to continue this program. F. A major concern was a large increase in the cost of energy. 0ii has increased dramatically. In November of 1978, we were paying $14.00 per barrel and we based our 1979-80 budget on $19~50 per barrel, a 40 percent increase. By thc end of fiscal year 1980, we had paid as much as $32.46 per barrel, which is 131 percent over the November 1978 price and 66 percent over the budgeted amount. Additionally, we had budgeted $95,000 and the cost was $125,577. This is $30,000 over budget. The picture could have been worse, but we nanaged to have our lowest use of recent record, which helped the deficit from being even higher.

The custodians have cooperated in excellent fashion a~d have played a i~/ajor part in control of oil consumption. Electricity cost has also increased, but ilot as much as oil. We purchase electricity under three different rate plans. B-2 where electric heat is employed G-22 large use buildings C-22 smaller buildings We look at some figures for total electric usc with all rates confined: year Total ~H Cost Cost/KWH 1976 77 4,576,000 (est.) $178.700 %90¢ 1977-78 3,060,512 137,974 4.51¢ 1978 79 3,081,512 137,502 4.46¢ 1979-80 2,746,760 151,738 5.52¢ Electrical cost rose 24 percent in the past year and 42 percent s~nce 1976-77. 'Chis is much less than oil costs as mentioned earlier. System-wide rise of electricity is down 11 percent from last year and is down 40 percent from three years ago. Personnel Duriog the ]979-80 school year, we had several personnel changes among tile custodians. A. Mr. Charles Wilson, a permanent Civi] Service employee, retired. B. Mr. Alfred Wallack, a permanent Civil Service employee, resigned to operate his owl~ business. C. Mr. Fred l~ndner and Mr. John Ventrillo, both provisional custodians, resigned to return to private industry. D. Fou~ provisional custodians were appointed to fill these four openings: Mr. Vincent ~alentino, Mr. Frank Verrecchia, Mr. Steven Albis and Mr. George Riley. E. Before the end of this year, Mr. Walter Walker, a Senior Custodian at the Middle had submitted his retirement, effective August 21, 1980. F. Mr. Clinton Medley was appointed a provisional custodian effective July 14, 1980. will succeed Mr. Walker. G. This year witnessed the end of CETA's participation in the School System. They have had funds reduced and have chosen to allocate them to private industry rather than Public Service Employment. As of this writing, we have no full-time CETA employees.

The statistics of the Stevens Memorial Library continue to reflect the town's growth and interest in using the library. Our free adult programming attracted a wide following. Three investment programs, two sewing classes, workshops on gardening and woodburning stoves, and our Tall Ships program at the Middle School all attracted capacity audiences. Our meeting room was used on the average of 20 times per month by non-profit organizations. Children's programming was higifly successful with a record number of children participating in our summer programs. Thanks to many local citizens and organizations, our exhibits were timely and of great interest. All these programs and services cost the town just under seven dollars per person, with each person borrowing, on avera?,'e, five and one-half items. The library was open inore hours per week (72) than any other library of comparable size in Massachusetts. We were able to do this with less library staff than any other town of our size in the state. My deep appreciation goes to the dedicated staff who worked hard to maintain our high standard of service. Russell J. Reeve, Director This past year the Trustees of Stevens Memorial Library purchased a Reader/Printer and had the outside trim of the library painted. The Trustees reg'retfully accepted the resignation of Ted Peters, who served on the hoard for eight years, and Mrs, John B. Osp~ood, who served on the board for almost thiz'ty-four years.

The total sum appropriated for budgetary accounts was $11,386,492 as adopted at the May 29, 30, 31, 1979 Annual Town Meeting, an increase of $666,064 over the previous fiscal year. Under Article 89, it was voted to use $275,000 from Revenue Sharing Funds as follows; $140,000 fox' Fire Department salaries and $135,000 for Police Department salaries. Town Meeting also appropriated under separate Articles $1,611,127. Of these Articles, $915,510 was raised by bond issue, and $50,000 was taken from Free Cash for the Reserve Fund. The Town Meeting voted to use $100,000 from available funds to reduce the tax rate and exempt $90,009 so that such free cash not be utilized for the purpose of reducing the tax rate for fiscal 1980. At the beginning of this fiscal year (July 1, 1980) the outstanding long term debt was $5,916,000 and at the end of the fiscal year it was $5,186,510.

Dewhirst, Treasurer $ 1,868,586.84 88 TREE DEPARTMENT The removal of diseased and beetle infested elms and dying maple trees continue to be a concern but the return of the Gypsy Moth is fast becoming a major problem, especially to home owners in outlying areas where oak trees predominate. The year 1980 was frustrating in attempts to control the Gypsy Moth due to a cool spring which prolonged the hatching period for an extended time. Bacterial and chemical ~nseoticides were used, but the overal~ results were not encouraging. The Tree Department planted fifteen trees in the Center Common to replace elms and maple trees lost to disease and old age. The varieties plaited included Red Su~set Maple, Marshall Seedless Ash and Green Mountain Sugar Maple. Fifty nine trees of various varieties were also planted throughout the town. A fourteen foot Schwedler Maple donated by friends of Everett Aubry was planted in the Center Common in iris memory. Mr. Aubry was sincerely interested and involved in the aff~drs of the town. and will be missed by people who knew him. The North Andover Improvement Society again deserves a vote of thanks for the contribution to the Arbor Day purchase of Scotch Pine seedlings which were packaged by the Tree Department and distributed to fourth and fifth grade students.
