Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Preparation for Trades: Manhattan Trade School for Girls, Vocational School for Boys, Murray Hill Vocational School, Brooklyn Vocational School for Boys To the Board of Education: Ladies and Gentlemen, I have the honor to present the annual reports made by the principals of the Manhattan Trade School for Girls, Vocational School for Boys, Murray Hill Vocational School, and the Brooklyn Vocational School. Miss Florence M. Marshall, principal of the Manhattan Trade School for Girls presents a very complete report on the organization of the trade school for girls, the attendance, instruction, placement of students and sale of products. She gives as the aims and purposes of the school: (1) to train young girls who are forced to leave school and become wage earners, to enter the skilled trades; (2) to imbue them with a love and respect for work; and (3) to arouse in them a desire to become the best type of workers. In the new experiments tried she mentions, (1) the opening of an annex to accommodate 150 girls; (2) trade extension classes for girls who were temporarily out of employment; and (3) vocational guidance tests for girls who were seeking jobs without any knowledge of what they were able to do. This last-named experiment is one of unusual interest and far reaching in its influence. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
