Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from School Survey of Lawrence, Kansas, 1922, Vol. 23 At the regular meeting of the board of education of the city of Lawrence, Kansas, held October 11, 1920, the bureau of school service of the University of Kansas was invited by the board of education to make whatever school survey seemed necessary in order to advise that Board what sort of a new high school must be constructed to serve the needs of the city of Lawrence. The bureau undertook this problem by making a careful inquiry: first, to determine the kind of high-school curriculum or curriculums that are needed in order to provide adequately for secondary education in a social community such as Lawrence, recognizing that the specifically educational factors must receive first consideration because of the impossibility of reaching a correct or safe decision on the kind of physical plant needed in any community unless it is understood at the start what uses it must serve and how extensive each use will be; secondly, to determine what kind of a school building program such a curriculum or curriculums will demand, holding the viewpoint that there are but few features of the high-school building that ought to be determined independently of what the remainder of the system provides or is likely to provide: thirdly, to determine what is the ability of Lawrence to pay for such a school building program and the most approved method of doing it? The regular staff in the school of education of the University was supplemented by the services of E. E. Lewis, superintendent of schools of Rockford, Ill., for making the study of the proposed building program as reported in section II. Supt. H. P. Smith, of Lawrence, who is also a member of the faculty of education at the University, took an active part in the making of this survey. Principal F. H. Olney, of the Lawrence high school, gave considerable time and assistance in gathering information from the high-school records. Some advanced students in education assisted members of the faculty in scoring school buildings and in gathering information regarding the school pupils. The scope of this survey, as is indicated in the first paragraph above, confines itself to the features named and does not attempt to investigate other features of the school system excepting as they are interrelated with the features selected for investigation. While the bureau of school service of the University accepts the responsibility for the survey report as a whole, section I is principally the work of F. P. OBrien, the director of that bureau, as was also the organizing and unifying of the report as a whole; the outlining of the high-school curriculum is the work of W. R. Smith, professor of educational sociology, of the University of Kansas; section II is principally the work of Supt. E. E. Lewis; section III was reported by Supt. H. P. Smith. Each of these parts has been the subject of conference and discussion and each has the general sanction of the committee making the survey.
