Location Description
Profile: Spaulding Memorial School has a long tradition of commitment to the elementary school age child. Presently there are approximately 430 students who attend the school and a total of seventy-five staff members. The school community is rich with talented and dedicated students, parents, and teachers. There is a strong sense of purpose focused on the unique qualities of this caring early childhood center. This can only be achieved through a collaborative process which includes an active P.T.O., school council, and volunteer program.
The educational program offered by the faculty at Spaulding Memorial is a highly effective elementary school program that encourages each child to develop his/her individual talents and abilities in a caring, nurturing, and inclusive learning environment. The curriculum focuses on the Massachusetts State Frameworks for all subject areas. The English Language Arts program incorporates explicit instruction for listening, speaking, reading and writing skills and encourages age appropriate cross-curricular applications. Children are introduced to math through a skills development program, which develops problem-solving techniques and encourages higher-level thinking. Our science curriculum emphasizes a hands-on approach, which fosters observations, inquiry, and understanding. Social Studies emphasizes the understanding of family and community through the integration of literature. To educate the whole child social skills are taught through discussions of citizenship, self-respect, peer relationships and conflict resolution. In addition, children have an opportunity to participate in computer, library, music, art and physical education classes. During the school year the children's art work and musical talent is showcased at family events. To further enhance the educational experience at Spaulding Memorial the PTO sponsors a variety of cultural events, which augment the curriculum.
The staff of the Spaulding Memorial is dedicated to the education of each individual child. Our goals are excellence, equal educational opportunities for all and the shaping of the whole child academically and socially.
History: Spaulding Memorial School was a gift given to the town by Huntley and Roland Spaulding in the early 1930's. They gave the funding to build a modern school to serve grades one through twelve as a memorial to their parents. Prior to Spaulding Memorial the town had three schools that were crowded, cold and in need of repair. At that time, the advent of Spaulding brought the end of an era of district schools and a new, more united town. The Spaulding brothers ended up spending $250,000 and this was during the depression!
Spaulding Memorial School was dedicated to the town of Townsend on its 200 year anniversary, June 29, 1932. Preceded by the biggest parade in Townsend's history, Mr. Frank Wright, Deputy Commissioner of Education of the Commonwealth, said, "Spaulding Memorial School was the finest, consolidated schoolhouse in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts."
In 1951 six classrooms were added. This addition only temporarily solved the overcrowding problem. By 1955, it was necessary to have double sessions. Also in 1955 it was thought that forming a regional school district would help relieve the overcrowding. The population continued to grow causing a new middle school to be built and a new elementary school opened in 1987 when Spaulding closed. The latest renovation to Spaulding concluded in 1993. Spaulding's interior was beautifully reconstructed. It was important to the building committee to maintain the historical exterior look of SMS. It now serves kindergarten through fourth grade.
