School Classification.

The theory of graded school de
mands, LIST. The division of all the pu
pills Of a school into classes or cradles
81. That all the pupils of one grade
pursue the same studies. 81. That pro-
motion from one grade to another be
upon thorough examination in all the
studies pursued. 4th. That pupils be
passed to lower grade upon failure to
sustain themselves in all the studies re-
CURED. according to some fixed standard.
This theory cauLot be fully reduced
to practice in any school at once, and
never but partially in our country
schools, yet system may be devised in
finitely better than the almost utter
want of system generally seen.
Such system, carefully matured and
adopted BY all our district boards, would
be of great benefit, for the following
reasons
Ist. Our teachers could be better pre-
pared for their work, knowing that in
whatever school employed the system
would be the same, and must be con
formed TO.
81. A teacher could commence work
at the point where it was left by the pre-
cediug teacher, thus avoiding the wretch
ed plan of having no plan, but each
teacher making plan of his own, and
causing it TO be strange, not that on
children learn 50 little, but that they learn
anything, after being subjected to the
whms aud caprices Of fifteen or twenty
different teachers in half as many years.
3D.. Pupils removing from one school
to another could enter class similar to
the one left, on presenting a certificate
of standing from the previous teacher.
4th. School visitation could be Of fai
better results from the fact that superin-
tendent, school officers, teacher and pu-
pills have standard of requirements and
understand each other.
A prerequisite TO this system will be
uniformity of text books. Taking for a
basis the books most used in the county,
| have recommended and do now recon.
mend the following list
Wilson's Primary Speller, Sanders
Larger SpelIer. Wilson's Readers, Rob
insons Mathematics, Guyot's Geogra-
plies, Kerl's Grammars, Goodrich's His
tories, Quackenbos' Composition, Gray's
Botauies, Wells Philosophy, Spencerian
Penmanship.
Districts which are not now using
these books can obtain them of the pub
fishers, for introduction, at reduced rates,
so that the additional cost of securing
uniformity of text books during the pres
ent winter need be but trifiing. | hope
to present course of study and plan of
classification soon, and shall base it upon
the above books.
hope the subject may be discussed
by teachers, school officers, and friends
of education generally, and any sugges-
tons will be thankfully received.
