Book Description

Excerpt from Manual of the Free High Schools of Wisconsin This Manual is intended to aid in interpreting the laws relating to free high schools, to furnish information regarding their establishment, organization and management and to offer suitable suggestions as to the scope and character of the instruction in such schools. Part I contains general suggestions and the courses of study; Part II comments on the courses and suggestive methods of teaching; Part III, the laws under which the schools are organized and maintained. The Manual of the Elementary Course of Study for Common Schools should be consulted and studied for more extended outlines and directions in connection with the work in Reading, Arithmetic, Grammar, Geography, Penmanship, Spelling, Physiology and United States History, and for tests for promotion to high schools. The completion of the course of study for common schools, or its equivalent, is required for admission to high schools.
