Description
Excerpt from Public School Administration a Statement of the Fundamental, Principles Underlying the Organization, and Administration of Public Education
In making the statement of principles of action the au thor has sought to avoid what seems to him to be the com mon defect of most of the books on school administration so far produced, and that is such a nice balancing of argu ments that the book is, practically colorless. He has also tried to avoid the production of a book of mere facts and figures. Such facts can be obtained without difficulty, and as needed from public-school documents. Instead, he has endeavored to make a book containing such a clear state ment of fundamental principles that either the lay reader or the student, on finishing it, shall know what ought to be done, and why. To give a student ideals for his work, and to establish in his mind proper principles of action, has always seemed to the writer an essential part of any course on public-school administration.
