Book Description
In this update to his landmark publication, William J. Reese offers a comprehensive examination of the trends, theories, and practices that have shaped America’s public schools over the last two centuries. Reese approaches this subject along two main lines of inquiry—education as a means for reforming society and ongoing reform within the schools themselves. He explores the roots of contemporary educational policies and places modern battles over curriculum, pedagogy, race relations, and academic standards in historical perspective. A thoroughly revised epilogue outlines the significant challenges to public school education within the last five years. Reese analyzes the shortcomings of “No Child Left Behind” and the continued disjuncture between actual school performance and the expectations of government officials. He discusses the intrusive role of corporations, economic models for enticing better teacher performance, the continued impact of conservatism, and the growth of home schooling and charter schools. Informed by a breadth of historical scholarship and based squarely on primary sources, this volume remains the standard text for future teachers and scholars of education.

Book Description
Excerpt from Outline Course of Study of the Public Schools: Of the City of Rochester, New York, 1914 This revision of the former course of study has been carried on through four committees of principals, each committee con sisting of three members. Every elementary school in the city has been affiliated with some one of these committees, thus avoiding duplication and at the same time giving a wide field of teachers and principals for advisory purposes. The work of these committees has not included the so-called special subjects, such as music and drawing, nor has it extended beyond the activ ities of the elementary school.
