Book Description

Excerpt from Third Biennial Report of the Superintendent of Public Instruction of the State of Colorado: For the Years Ending August 31, 1881, and August 31, 1882 There is Often danger of forgetting to some extent the quality. Of our schools during what may be termed the organizing or growing period, more attention being given to the securing Of school privileges than to the quality Of the school. By quality IS meant the ability of a school to assist the child in its development physically, intellectually and morally; that school being best which does most for the child in these respects. The purpose Of the school Should be to develop the qualities of good character as well as good scholarship; indeed, our schools Should aid in producing that which we most need, viz; citizens possessing the genuine qualities of manhood, men and women of worth, rich in the elements of useful ness and virtue.
