Book excerpt: Excerpt from Administration of Schools in the Smaller Cities The usual method of choosing school board members is election at large. In 417, or per cent, of the 516 cities reporting, the board is elected by the people; and in 99, or per cent, it is appointed by the mayor, city council, or commission. Of the 99 boards appointed, 32 are appointed by the mayor and 67 by the council or commission. Most of the States having general laws regarding the method Of choosing city school boards provide for election by the people. (see p. Students of school administration almost without exception favor an elec tive board, especially in the smaller cities. They say that appointment by the mayor or city council places the schools too far away from the people, and that the people take more interest in the schools if they elect the board. It is pointed out that in some cities where boards are appointed the mayor or the members of the city council control the schools to a very great degree, so' that anyone seeking an appointment or a contract needs only to Obtain the approval of the mayor or the members of the council. In brief, an appointive board is too often the tool of the mayor or council, many times not working for the inter est Of the schools but for the interest of party. If the council appoints, there is temptation on the part of its individual members to dictate policies to the school board and to influence it to elect such janitors and teachers as they may suggest. In other words, appointment by either the mayor or city council tends to entangle the schools in petty city and ward politics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The demand for Bulletin 1915 No. 44, School Administration in the smaller cities, having been so great that the supply was soon exhausted, and the demand for it still being great, a new-bulletin regarding the administration of schools in the smaller cities has been prepared. The information contained in it was collected by means of a questionnaire, to which about 520 superintendents in cities of from 5,000 to 30,000 population replied. The aim has been to present not only the data collected but also certain well-established principles of school administration. [Best copy available has been provided.].

This book was released on 2018-03-21 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Administration of Village and Consolidated Schools Practically everything that has been written on school administration has been written with the city system in mind. While much of this literature applies in a general way to the village school, much of it does not; and what does apply has to be translated, so to speak. This book has been written to meet the needs of principals of small schools. It is intended also as a textbook for use in normal schools and colleges where young men and women are being trained for the administration of village schools. Two considerations have constantly been held in mind in the preparation of this text: first, the progress which is likely to occur in education in the near future, and to which the village principal must adapt himself; secondly, the technique of administering schools as they actually are. The aim, in other words, is to help the principal to be both practical and progressive. The authors wish to express gratitude to their colleagues and professional friends, too numerous to mention here by name, who have assisted them in the preparation of these chapters.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from School Administration in Municipal Government While various phases of school administration in cities have engaged the attention of educators and of writers on municipal government, no one seems to have undertaken a study of the entire Subject. Educators have laid stress mainly upon the pedagogic side of administration, and stu dents of municipal problems have treated education as merely incidental to their main theme. The following paper is the result of a study of school administration in its immediate relation to municipal govern ment. No attempt has been made to treat the subject from an historical point of view, except in so far as was necessary to explain present conditions, and reference has been made to foreign school systems only when such reference served to suggest possible improvements in our own.

I wish to thank especially the city and village superintendents whose practical advice and whose cordial cooperation with Mr Wilson in planning for the organization of these schools, have not only given new proof of their intelligent zeal in behalf of the children of the State but have also made possible the initiation of this work with their unanimous approval and support.

This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from School Administration and School Reports In accordance with the general purpose of the book, the first essay deals with the Meaning of Education. This essay endeavors to outline spe cifically, though in general terms, the necessary educational doctrine of a superintendent of public schools in a democratic society like ours, and it sug gests also in outline the different kinds of schools which the conception of education defined in the essay requires for its embodiment in practice. In other words, the first essay attempts to outline briefly educational Opportunity in relation to con temporary educational needs. The nature of the second essay is defined in its title, Some Principles of School Administration. This essay was originally read at the meeting of the Department of Superintendence of the National Education Association in 1913. It attempts to set forth in a brief, but it is hoped in a definite, way cer tain fundamental principles which every superin tendent who seeks to define his administrative policy needs to assimilate. The third essay deals with Town and City School Reports, More Particularly Superintendents' Re ports, and aims to achieve two distinct but related purposes; first, to show the unsatisfactory character of most school reports as they are; and second, to suggest definite ways of improving them. Much uncertainty undoubtedly exists in the minds of su perintendents concerning the aims, scope, and method of the reports which they are required to submit from time to time for the information of the school board, the teaching staff, and the public. This essay seeks to define these important elements of school reports, and the writer hopes that it will be found of service in the field which it covers. It was read at the meeting of Section L, in December, 1915 (chairman's address), and was printed in School and Society for January 29 and February 16, 1916.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A request was made to prepare a bulletin setting forth as clearly as possible the duties and responsibilities of school boards of small cities and towns, their methods of work, and such other matters as would be helpful to such boards in the successful performance of their important duties. In response to this request, the study presented in this bulletin is based upon about 1,300 replies received to a questionnaire submitted to superintendents in cities having a population of from 2,500 to 30,000, and upon material collected through visits to a number of schools in these cities. The aim of the study is to present the facts and interpret them in the light of modern thought on the problems of school administration, with special reference to the needs of school-board members. In school enrollment and school expenditure, the smaller cities present rather significant conditions, and these are considered of such importance as to receive a treatment apart from those in the larger cities. Topics covered in this bulletin include: (1) The school board; (2) Officers of the school board; (3) Finance; (4) The superintendent; (5) Principals; (6) Special supervisors; (7) Health inspector and school nurse; and (8) Other employees and officers. Appended to this document are: (1) School building code of New Jersey; and (2) Statistical tables. An index is included. (Contains 13 tables and 31 footnotes.)

These problems arise when the estabhsment of intermediate schools (or junior high schools) is under consideration; when we seek to ascertain what a satisfactory rate of promotion is, and under what conditions we may hope for a maximum rate of promotion; and when we try to secure age-grade standards that will yield as usable and valid information concerning the number of normal-age, over-age, and under-age children in the schools: and the method employed in dealing with these problems is the statistical or objective method - the method that 15 free from personal bias or general Opinion, and seeks to arrive at valid conclusions on the basis of incontestable and well-organized data.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Organization of City School Systems: An Address Delivered Before the Council of School Superintendents of the State of New York at Albany, October 14, 1912 The purpose of this paper is to express in general terms the conclusions reached after an experience of twenty years in dealing with many phases of the subject and also to express what is commonly acknowledged by expert authority in school administration to be the fundamental principles on which all laws which are to govern the public schools of a city should be enacted. Until a permanent policy shall be established in relation to the organization of the machinery for the operation of the public schools in the several cities of the State and upon fundamental principles consonant with the general policy of the State upon public education, and until these prin ciples are well understood by teachers, superintendents and officers who bear official relation to the schools, and until such fundamental principles are generally recognized by municipal authorities, political parties and in uential citizens, this subject is one which should receive the consideration not only of organizations of school workers like yours in session' here tonight but of all citizens who have a patriotic interest in the welfare of the State. The first law authorizing the establishment of public schools in this State was enacted in 1795. The permanent basis of a State system of public education was enacted in 1812, or just one hundred years ago. In these early statutes the principle was written that all tax-supported schools and schools receiving State aid should be under State supervision, that the schools constituted a State system and that public officers should be chosen in the several localities to represent the State and to carry into effect the State's policy in relation to public education. This principle became fundamental to all educational enterprises in which the State is interested. It is founded upon the sound doctrine that (the welfare of the State depends upon a general dissemination of education in all sections and for the benefit of all citizens and that, where the funds of the State go, the authority, supervision and control of the State must follow.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Gary Public Schools: Organization and Administration In the last few years both laymen and professional educators have engaged in a lively controversy as to the merits and defects, advantages and disadvantages of what has come to be called the Gary idea or the Gary plan. The rapidly increasing literature bearing on the subject is, however, deficient in details and too often partisan in tone. The present study was undertaken by the General Education Board at the request of the Gary school authorities for the purpose of presenting an accurate and comprehensive account of the Gary schools in their significant aspects.
