ABOUT EDUCATION WEEK

Education week-November 1S-24-has more pur-
pose and justification than of the special weeks
thrust upon the public Its aim is to focus atten-
ton upon education in this country upon the general
system well upon local school problems and
achievements
During the week in many communities schools
keep open house for parents and other interested cit
izens 1t would be we'll for the nation if parents
erywhere responded generously by going to two
at the progress made in methods of teaching atrac
school days. In cases they might be disagree
ably surprised conditions that ought exist and
would not exist if all the adults in the community real
lied their responsibility to the schools.
- In fact parents oughtn't to need special in
vtaton to visit the schools wait until Educational
Week brings special excuse. Thoroughly interested
parents should get into the habit of getting we'll
quainted with Jimmy's Marys teachers and should
keep in close touch with what is being done in the
schools The Parent-Teachers Association, an in
stitution of national scope furnishes the by
which mothers all the land come in close contact
with the teachers and the school personnel
Unfortunately, this organization does not take IN
the high school classes and it to be hoped that
year to bridge the gap between the local high school
classroom and the homes of its pupils.
A good deal depends upon education of the right
kind particularly in democracy where intelligent
government only through an intelligent cit
zenship. Critics have frequently pointed out to us
that educational system Is far from perfect But
no one has demonstrated that it is hopeless. 1t is
growing changing thing, like any other democratic in
stitution Education Week is good time to start find
ing out in what directions it is growing and IN what
directions it ought to be growing.
