Two Types Of Rural Schools, With Some Facts Showing Economic And Social Conditions (1912) (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781436552516)

""Two Types of Rural Schools, with Some Facts Showing Economic and Social Conditions"" is a book written by Ernest Burnham in 1912. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of the two types of rural schools in America during the early 20th century. The first type of school is the consolidated school, which was created by merging several small schools into one larger school. The second type of school is the district school, which was a small school that served a single rural community.Burnham presents a detailed description of the economic and social conditions that influenced the development of these two types of rural schools. He examines the factors that led to the consolidation of schools, including the need for more efficient and cost-effective education, and the decline in the rural population. Burnham also discusses the challenges faced by district schools, such as a lack of funding and resources, and the difficulties in attracting and retaining qualified teachers.The book includes statistical data and case studies to support Burnham's arguments. He also provides recommendations for improving rural education, including the need for better facilities, more qualified teachers, and increased funding. ""Two Types of Rural Schools"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of rural education in America and the challenges faced by rural communities in providing quality education to their children.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
