Excerpt from Public School Attendance of Delaware Children in the Year of 1912-13: A Study and an Appeal To Superintendents, School Commissioners, Principals and Teachers of the Schools of Delaware' The summary of last year's (1912-1913) school attendance shows that boys and girls in the rural schools attended on the average froml 70 to 80 days each, although the schools were open more than 140\ days. In the town schools, exclusive of Wilmington, the average 3 attendance is about 135 days each, although the schools were open] more than 180 days. This poor attendance is the most damaging fea ture of the entire school situation. It means lessons half learned, lack of interest in the work and in the school, many parts of branches not studied at all, and a feeling, more hurtful than all else, that being present or absent does not matter this for the children. For the teacher it means poor and unsatisfactory progress of the classes and wholesale discouragement for the entire school. That teacher and pupils may be interested and really enjoy the work, attendance must be for the full term and regular throughout the term. The school authorities of the state should at once try to make this attendance more regular and for a longer period, especially for the older children. Every school official has a moral responsibility to try to get this attendance. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
