Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The University of Missouri Bulletin, Vol. 1: Consolidation of Schools in Missouri In November, 1911, the University issued a bulletin on consolidation of rural schools. This second bulletin has been prepared to explain the new consolidation laws, to create sentiment in favor of the movement, and to suggest plans of procedure. All literature on the subject has been examined and that which is applicable to Missouri has been used. Much material has been collected by correspondence with experts upon consolidation in several states. The University of Missouri has established a Bureau of Consolidation to which letters upon any of the questions involved may be addressed. Plats and information about proposed plans may be sent to the Bureau if an opinion as to methods of procedure is desired. The University, the State Department of Education, the Normal Schools, and a number of county superintendents are all deeply interested in consolidation and will gladly give assistance whenever it is possible. Address all communications with the University to the Bureau of Consolidation, University of Missouri, Columbia, Missouri. The Nature Of Consolidation The most important educational problem in America is that of the rural schools. The last generation has witnessed great advancement along educational lines but it has been confined to city schools, normal schools and universities. Little progress has been made in the country schools. These institutions have not felt the influence of the forward movement that has characterized the last two decades. There are some good country schools in which earnest, capable men and women are doing excellent work but the great majority of them are not serving the community needs. It is useless to talk about restoring the old-fashioned country school. The large enrollment which was due to the attendance of grown boys and girls is a thing of the past. The social interest and coherence that once made these schools a center of influence is no longer possible. In order to put new life into country schools and to restore them to their former usefulness, it is necessary to have larger school units. This is possible under consolidation, a plan which has commended itself to thinking people and has been tried in many states.
