Book Description
Excerpt from The State and the City I must speak on a highly technical subject which I have not myself chosen, and must give utterance to conclusions which have been forced upon me, which I have not arrived at willingly, and I am afraid that I shall certainly be a distributor of that kind of gloom of which the President of the University of Minnesota spoke so feelingly last night. I find myself envying those gentle men who were assigned genteel subjects like The University and the State, or The Evils of Liberal Education in a State School System. One who talks of politics can hardly be genteel, and I am going to talk of politics. I shall not attempt to say any of those fine things that might be said of the relation of the state and the city with regard to many other features of very common life. I shall say something about the relation of the state and the city in regard to the schools. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Organization of City School Systems: An Address Delivered Before the Council of School Superintendents of the State of New York at Albany, October 14, 1912 The purpose of this paper is to express in general terms the conclusions reached after an experience of twenty years in dealing with many phases of the subject and also to express what is commonly acknowledged by expert authority in school administration to be the fundamental principles on which all laws which are to govern the public schools of a city should be enacted. Until a permanent policy shall be established in relation to the organization of the machinery for the operation of the public schools in the several cities of the State and upon fundamental principles consonant with the general policy of the State upon public education, and until these prin ciples are well understood by teachers, superintendents and officers who bear official relation to the schools, and until such fundamental principles are generally recognized by municipal authorities, political parties and in uential citizens, this subject is one which should receive the consideration not only of organizations of school workers like yours in session' here tonight but of all citizens who have a patriotic interest in the welfare of the State. The first law authorizing the establishment of public schools in this State was enacted in 1795. The permanent basis of a State system of public education was enacted in 1812, or just one hundred years ago. In these early statutes the principle was written that all tax-supported schools and schools receiving State aid should be under State supervision, that the schools constituted a State system and that public officers should be chosen in the several localities to represent the State and to carry into effect the State's policy in relation to public education. This principle became fundamental to all educational enterprises in which the State is interested. It is founded upon the sound doctrine that (the welfare of the State depends upon a general dissemination of education in all sections and for the benefit of all citizens and that, where the funds of the State go, the authority, supervision and control of the State must follow.

Book Description
Excerpt from The City School District, Statutory Provisions for Organization and Fiscal Affairs The aim of this study is primarily descriptive. Its purpose is to describe the city school district as it is found, with respect to certain important features. Probably the study will be best understood when regarded as composed of two parts: the first part attempting (i) to point out the relation of the city school district to the city, (2) to determine its relation to the state, (3) to show the nature of the control the state exercises over it; the second part aiming to show the provisions the state has made for the city school district with reference to its organization and fiscal affairs. It will be seen that the task which has been set is not an easy one. The subject is not one which lends itself readily to logical treatment. The firs-t part can be treated adequately only when considered from the point of view of administrative law. But the aim of this study is practical, from the point of view of educational administration. A general understanding of the first part is, however, necessary to a full appreciation of the second part. The excuse for giving it here is that no student of administrative law has as yet presented it elsewhere. It is thought then pardonable that the practical aim be allowed to prevail even at the sacrifice of a possible full rounded develop ment of a logical theme. It follows, further, that the first part of this study is valuable here chiefly in so far as it contributes to a fuller understanding of the second part.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Public-School System of the United States The material contained in this volume will consist of the most important of the data that I collected during a journey extending over a period of more than five months, made under the auspices of "The Forum," for the purpose of studying the public-school system of the United States. The facts presented in the first part of the present work do not vary materially from those presented in a series of articles recently published in that magazine. The matter contained in the second part, however, - the part devoted exclusively to the compositions written by the children and the drawings made by them, - appears here for the first time. In undertaking this journey it was my aim not only to learn what methods of instruction were commonly followed in our country, and the general condition of our schools, but also to investigate the manner in which the schools of different cities were managed.

Book Description
Excerpt from State Normal School Systems of the United States, Vol. 2 In some cases, the writer has referred to certain states as having one normal school, when very recently this policy has been departed from and one or two new institutions established. These schools are too new to have effected conditions, so that in com paring results, there is no injustice in classing these common wealths with states which have never departed from the one central school idea.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Management of a City School Prior to 1908 there was no book on School Management that treated specifically the administration of a city school; there were, in fact, very few books that even distinguished between school management and class management. In that year the author's The Management of a City School was published, the first volume to deal exclusively with the specific problems confronting the principal of a city school. The gracious reception accorded the book has prompted the author, at the end of a decade, to undertake a complete revision. The plan of organization of the original edition has been retained; but the text has been liberally reapportioned and supplemented, the citations brought to date, and bold-faced topical headings introduced. It is hoped that the book may continue to interest those charged with the responsibility of managing schools, those preparing themselves for administrative positions, and the teaching profession generally, and that, in its new form, it may render an increasingly helpful service.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Control of City School Finances The public schools of America cost money. This cost has constantly increased until today it involves a vast expenditure. Americans no longer doubt the advisability of public schools, but the question of financing these schools is a vital one. It is not the purpose of this book to discuss the merits of different methods of providing funds for the public schools. It shall attempt only to discuss the merits of the different methods of controlling these moneys. In New York City the board of esti mate and apportionment controls the granting of money to the schools; in Detroit it is the city council and mayor; in Cleveland it is the county budget commission; in Newark it is the board of school estimate; while in such cities as Philadelphia, Seattle, Chicago and St. Louis, the board of educa tion raises and expends its own funds. The question as to who shall control the raising g and disbursing of moneys for the public schools is, and has been for years, a much debated question. It is the purpose of this book to present the different methods used in American cities and to examine and evaluate each in the light of educational efficiency.
