Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Rural and Village Schools of Colorado: An Eight Year Survey of Each School District, 1906-1913, Inclusive The third-class school district is the unit of organization that our people have provided for the training of the children of the villages and of the open country of Colorado in the rudiments of reading, writing, arithmetic, history, geography and economics, for fitting those who have completed the prescribed course of study for entering the high school, and for giving all some understanding of the duties, privileges and responsibilities of American citizenship. The importance of the third-class school district, judged from the standpoint of the work it is charged to do, is fundamental and its efficiency of vital necessity to our state and national life. The heavy burden of responsibility that it carries and the great importance of its work, are largely overlooked because we are accustomed to consider rather the small individual district with its comparatively few pupils, than the aggregate number of districts in the state with the many thousands of pupils that these serve. Judgment, too, of how far and how well the district serves the people, should be based on the work of all the districts rather than that of any individual one, and manifestly, too, knowledge of state conditions in the aggregate must be had by him who can justly criticise our rural and village schools or safely plan for their improvement. It was a growing conviction of the imperative need of more knowledge of our rural schools from the standpoint of the State as a whole, for guidance in plans for their improvement, that prompted the planning and carrying forward of a survey of all of the third-class districts of the State by our Department of Rural and Industrial Education. The dominant idea has been to learn just what kind of service the schools in the third-class districts are giving. Months were necessary for the collection of data and fully as much time for its study and analysis. Much thought was given to the method of properly illustrating various phases of study and earnest effort was made to show the method used clearly and to give the results of the various lines of inquiry thoroughly, accurately and in proper relation so that the people of Colorado might see the work of our rural schools in proper perspective and decide for themselves whether the boys and girls of the county are getting the training that will fit them for twentieth century service. The work of the survey has been a heavy task, requiring a great deal of individual and institutional sacrifice, but it was done gladly and cheerfully and the results are published in the hope that they may be of service to the people of Colorado in their great work of rural school improvement and aid them in their efforts to give better educational advantages to the country children.
