Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Maine Commissioner of Education Gains Per Contra 1905
The plan for standard schools has been so intelligently discussed in the newspapers, the women's clubs and by school officials as to indicate that its merits are being recognized. It has met with a much more favorable reception than was antici pated. A large number of letters have been received approving the scheme and expressing a desire to have the schools in which the writers are personally interested placed on this list. The movement has stimulated an interest in better physical surroundings, in simplifying and systematizing the course of study, improving methods of instruction and increasing the thoroughness of the work done. The indirect benefits derived from the outlines have proved that the time is ripe for the presentation of the plan proposed and that our people are pre pared to make use of the suggestions therein contained.
