Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Landscape Improvement of Rural School Grounds The following bulletin, written at our request by Professor J. W. Gregg of the University of California, with the addition of lists of trees, shrubs and flowers, suitable for school grounds, furnished by Assistant Professor Ralph T. Stevens, and Miss K. D. Jones, while designed to meet some of the immediate and pressing needs of our schools, has elements of permanent value. It, therefore, should not only receive careful consideration now, but be kept for future reference and study whenever the planning or planting of school grounds is to be undertaken. The detailed plans for grounds are sufficiently numerous and varied to be distinctly helpful to any district where the school grounds are ample enough to admit of landscape treatment. Grounds of such amplitude are of course desirable for every school. It is not always feasible to provide them in large cities, but there is no suburban or rural district in California that can not have them if only there be a' resolute and an intelligently directed effort to do so. In districts where the present population is too small to provide or to maintain such grounds, the desired ends can be obtained by judicious consolida tion of neighboring schools. Such consolidation would result in a triple benefit, for not only could the school grounds be enlarged and beauti fied, but the school buildings could be made more spacious, and more convenient, while the courses of instruction, made more numerous and more varied, could be carried on under better conditions.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tree Planting on Rural School Grounds A great number of schoolhouses in the United States lack the sur roundings that make for comfort and contentment. City school grounds are often so small that planting is out of the question, though, where Space permits, it is not uncommon to find them carefully laid out, with a good arrangement of grass plots, flower beds, and shade trees. In towns and villages, also, may be pointed out many exam ples showing great care and attention. In the country, however, an improved school ground is rarely found. In hilly, forest regions they are often denuded of soil and full of stones and stumps, and on the prairie many are well-nigh as bare, bleak, and inhospitable as when they formed a part of the unsettled plain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Department for Education and Employment has produced this updated bulletin on school grounds development, highlighting the potential of these grounds as a valuable resource that can support and enrich the whole curriculum and the education of all pupils. The educational use of school grounds has positive affects on student attitudes towards their environment and can help pupils be better informed, responsible, and enterprising. Varied and flexible landscaping is important to afford many opportunities for learning by a diverse student body. Achievement of these goals requires communication and commitment of teachers, pupils, educational advisers, and landscape specialists. For new school sites, the landscape deserves as much attention as the building, and its financial allocation should be adequate enough to be viewed as an external works budget with sufficient allowance for aftercare. Improving existing grounds should involve pupils and teachers at the earliest stages, allowing for long-term changes in the grounds in successive years. Finally, grounds management and maintenance guidelines should determine the type and pattern of maintenance with support of landscape staff. Appendices include a suggested landscape survey checklist, a list of possible site features, a landscape brief for a new school, a management policy statement of objectives, publications relating to each section for further reading, and useful organizations.
