Book Description
Excerpt from A Plea for Greek in the American High SchoolGreek is the one ideal element needed to round out and per feet our system of democratic education. Its call is a spiritual one. The maintenance of Greek in the high school is our tribute of loyalty to the spiritual ancestry of our culture. The time is come, when we too of Virginia and the South can afford to pay such reverence to the ideal interests of life. Our public school system can never be fully worthy of an enlightened democracy, until we shall have made it possible for any number of pupils, however small, to pursue the study of Greek during the last two years of the high school course. For nothing is more certain than that, in the profoundest essentials of our thought and speech.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Latin and Greek in American Education: With Symposia on the Value of Humanistic Studies In 1909 - 10 the total attendance in public and private high schools and academies was boys and girls) in public high schools, and boys and girls) in schools of private support. In the decade 1900 to 1910 the population of the continental United States increased about 21 per cent; the enrolment in public high schools more than 60 per cent. The enrolment reported in public high schools in 1909 - 10 was more than four and one-half times as great as that reported twenty one years earlier, in 1889 - 90. The phenomenal growth of the public high schools is significant from several points Of view. The causes to Which it is due cannot even be enumerated here; but of immediate bearing upon our subject is the consequence that the drain upon the resources of taxpayers occa sioned by the necessity of providing buildings, equip ment, and instruction to meet unanticipated demands has been so great as to retard the normal increase in the compensation of teachers, which should keep pace with the increase in the cost of living and of professional preparation. The inadequacy Of compensation has driven from the high schools many of the strongest men on the staff Of instruction, Who have been forced to abandon teaching for less congenial but more lucrative pursuits; and it tends to deter young men of promise from entering the profession.
