RURAL SCHOOLS
ARE OBJECTS OF
MORE ATTENTION

In an interview with a Press re-
porter yesterday, State Superinten-
dent viii c. Wood said that the de-
partment of Education is center
ing its greatest energy this year
on the development and improve
ment of the rural schools of Cali
fornia.
This work is to be carried on
through the county superintendent
with the assistance of rural super.
visors. Community schools in neigh
borhoods lying within a certain ra-
dius. is the goal.
One of the aims of the work of
the year, is bringing about a revi-
sion and readjustment of the course
of study which will be much more
suitable to the present needs
OF the schools, he said.
The subjects outi:1ed in the course
of study at this time were named
by enactment of the legislature and
not by educators as has generally
been understood. Supt. Wood
thinks that the list is too long and
quite agrees with the critics who
| contend that the schools are try
ing to spread over too many sub
jects and so are hindefed from get
ting the thorough results in funda-
mentals so much to be desired.
I Many of the subjects listed were
placed in the course of study by
enthusiasts who lobbied for them
with success during the session of
the legislature meeting some years
ago.
The superintendent stated that
i many of the schools of the state
are doing effective Americaniza-
| ton work under direction of spe.
cial teachers.
California is fortunate in having
| fewer small districts than have
many of the middle west states
Here we have something less than
$500 rural school districts while the
state of Iowa, for instance, has
ll,oOO districts with many one.
