Excerpt from Organization of Education in the United States: Supplementing Exhibit of the United States Bureau of Education at the Brazil Centennial Exposition, Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, 1922-1923 The first of these were mainly private or charitable, but as they proved their worth they were made a part of the school system. There are at present approximately cities in which the kindergarten forms an organic part of the school. All of the 48 States now have laws permitting the use of public funds for kindergarten education, and over 100 normal schools and colleges provide kindergarten training courses. The kindergarten represents the active type of education as contrasted with the traditional academic type, and in demonstrating the worth of this type for young children it has exercised an appreciable in uence upon the work of the primary grades. It is to its in uence mainly that the introduction of nature study, constructive handwork, and cooperative games is due. In this and in other respects its work is in harmony with the newer ideals in elementary education. Pupils who do not have the advantage of a kindergarten usually enter the elementary grades at the age of 6 or 7. After completing 8 years, or 8 grades, they are eligible to enter the high school, in which the course is 4 years. This completes the 12 years of instruction provided in the general public school system of the United States. Another division of the 12 years called the 6 - 3 - 3 plan is sometimes adopted. This plan pro vides for 6 years in elementary grades, 3 years in a junior high school, and 3 years in a senior high school. The importance of the elementary grades is recognized and in most cities they are carefully cared for by expert supervisors.
