Excerpt from The Psychological Clinic, 1911-1912, Vol. 5: A Journal of Orthogenics for the Study and Treatment of Retardation and Deviation The old ungraded school, whatever else may be said about it, had one splendid feature that the graded school has never attained; namely, its instruction was individualistic. On the other hand, the graded school has come to us as an administrative necessity; its economic aspect is unmistakable, and it has made possible the education of the masses. Once with us, we were quick to discern that the graded school was a mighty, social institution. We have seen that the members of its epitomized society render valuable service to others at the very time they are working for themselves; that its recitation is a veritable mental clearing house in which values are exchanged, each sees through the eyes of others, and the individual is taught by forty teachers instead of by one. The principle of highest value in the graded school is thus held to be the social principle; and this, whatever else may come to the school, we are not now willing to sacrifice. But if, while con serving the social, we can in some way bring back the valuable individualistic principle of the old, ungraded school, then we shall have realized, perhaps, the ideal on that formal administrative side which we call grading the school.
