W4NT CLASSES SEPARATE.
Women Principals Call Present Sys-
tenn Immoral and CostIg.

The Association of Woman Principals OF Manhat-
tan and The Bronx has prepared report condemn
ing the consolidation of public schools and the
maintenance of mixed classes the grounds of
economy and efficiency.
In Manhattan and The Bronx there many
school buildings which contain two independent
school organizations each, a grammar deps psrtment
under a principal and primary department
under a woman principal It has been the object Of
the board of superintendents of the Department of
Education to consolidate these schools and do away
with the extra salary.
The women principals deny that either better
supervision less expense is the result of these
consultations After describing the multitude of
duties which fall to the lot of the ordinary principal
of a large school, the report continues:
The policy of mixed classes is Objectionable on
moral and educational grounds. Scientific investi-
cation has proved that the physical and mental
growth of boys and girls Of the same age is not
parallel They should therefore not be subjected TO
the same training The teaching of boys and girls
together at the same age of adolescenee tends to
teacher upon girls at this period OF OF woman
teacher boys, is not the proper influence, and
therefore should be avoided by establishing separate
schools for boys and for girls. -
and under the control of women. This is best Sc
cured by the establishment of a primary depart
rnent with mixed classes Maturing girls need a
woInan'S supervision. Ihlsy again. IS oeSt secured
The argument of economy fails when scrutinlzed
in the light given bv statistics A mixed school or
afty classes costs S7SHSe. boys school of twenty
five classes costs s39.02S and a ,gIrls scnool OF
that saving of Ss.790 year is made by the separa-
tiOn schools.
