improvements and precautionary measures

doubtless resulted in helping to keep Idahos

DIR. EDWARD o. SISSON
Commissioner Of Education.

Among men prominent in educational
circles OF this country no name is more fla
miar than that Of Dr. Edward O. Sisson,
state commissioner Of education of Idaho
After years of experience in teaching and
at the head of numerous universities Dr..
Sisson was called to Idaho on July 10, 1918,
to become commissioner of education of the
Gem state. The move was a new one on
the part of Idaho and the move a radical
departure from the old system. Fully half
year was spent by the board of education
to secure man highly educated practical
and with ability to look into the future Dir.
S1sson was finally the choice of the board
and he resigned his position as head OF the
department of education in Reed college at
Portland to come to Idaho and take I'D his
new duties here
In the four years he has been commits
sloner OF education in Idaho, DIR. Sisson has
accomplished much. He first made STIR
vey OF the educational work, studied its sue
cesses and failures, systematized and stand
ardized the rural schools, putting them upon
far higher plane. DR.. Sisson talks for the
practical things in education. He believes
III educating the boys and girls to fit into
the communities in which they live He is
strong advocate of domestic science and
manual training in both city and country
schools and has done much for the advance
ment OF those courses His advice and
counsel has been felt i'll the state university.
IN the normal schools, the technical insti-
tute and the industrial training school,
While advancing the practical things in
education, he has not neglected the sciences
and high educational studies and in fact
there is no part OF the educational system OF
tlo 1,,t1
full consideration. With the cooperation Of
the state board of education. DR.. Sisson has
made the influence of the Idaho schools felt
throughout the country. Its system is point
ed to by other states, who contemplate fol-
lowing along the same line.
AS a lecturer Dr. Sisson has been invited
to all parts OF the country to explain the
Idaho school system. In Idaho he has
brought the schools into closer contact with
the patrons by lectures on education, given
at community center meetings and at the
Commercial club in Boise
DIR. Sisson is president of the industrial
section OF the National Education associa-
ton, OF which he has been a member for
years and taken an active part in its DELHI
erations.
Educators of Idaho feel that this state
was fortunate in securing a man OF such
broad views, wide experience and high
learning as DIR. Sisson to head its new plan
of school advisory work
That DIR. Sisson has made good is shown
by the high standing of the Idaho schools,
I he attention which they are attracting and
the class OF instructors being attracted to
this state III which they are given an oppo,-
tunity to show their worth under the Idaho
system.
