Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Study of the Winston-Salem Schools The work of the Home-County Study Clubs at the University of North Carolina has attracted the attention of thoughtful people all over the country. It would be difficult to estimate the good that has been done by these intimate studies of home-county conditions by students who counted it a privilege to do their part in helping their county find itself. Forsyth County and Winston-Salem desired a survey even more intimate. We wanted the University to send us men to go over the field and tell us "where we lead, where we lag and the way out." The request was presented to President Graham. He gladly fell in with our plan and made it possible for Winston-Salem and Forsyth County to have the most complete survey yet made in the State. The survey was made by Prof. E. C. Branson, Dr. Charles Lee-Raper and Dr. L. A. Williams. It will be published in two parts. The first part will contain two sections. The first section is The Social and Economic Survey of the County by Prof. Branson, and the second section is the Industrial Survey of the City by Dr. Raper. The second part is presented in this volume and contains the Educational Study of the Schools of Winston-Salem by Dr. Williams. Dr. Williams came to Winston-Salem in February, 1917, and made a personal inspection of the school system. Every opportunity was afforded him that the facts might be known. No attempt was made to dictate in any way what should be put in or what should be left out. All available records were placed at his disposal. The study was made with the hearty approval of the School Board and the co-operation of the Superintendent, principals and teachers. The delay in printing the results of the study has been brought about by a combination of circumstances which we could not control. While the public has not seen the findings, they have been known to the school officials and we have already acted on many of them. Many more are under consideration. The city has already greatly benefitted by the work of Dr. Williams and Dr. J. Henry Johnston, who ably assisted Dr. Williams in many ways. It is the intention of the school officers to continue this study and have Dr. Williams make an examination of the teaching results of the schools. We desire to express our hearty thanks to the State University and to Dr. Williams in particular for what has already been done for our schools.
