tary School Teachers
Stunt. w. A. Kohl Selected As The
Regional Director of
Program

Supt. w. A. Kohl has been select
ed as regional director for the
John Dewey Society for the Study
Of Education ana Culture, which
has been extended to include in
quiry of elementary teachers of the
country. In receiving notice of his
selection he was advised that the
local school had been recommend
ed by the State University as no
ticeably representative Of this re-
gion.
During the spring Of 1886 a ma
tional survey of the social attitudes
of Junior and High School teach
ers was made and because of wide
professional interest aroused the
committee believes it desirable to
include q test Of elementary teach
ers.
Under this program the Depart
ment of Elementary Education re-
quests that Supt. Kohl aid in this
work, and his assistance has been
sought to obtain responses to a
specially-prepared test from repre-
sentative grade-school teachers in
this district.
Only active classroom teachers
from the Kindergarten level
through the First to Sixth Grades
inclusive should take this test. It
will do no harm, however, If Sew
enth and Eighth Grade teachers
participate.
Supt. Kohl has received test
blanks and these are to be made
out and returned within a week.
This test is highly important and
the groups of teachers wanted are
those who will most faithfully re-
present the variation in quality and
opinion Of the entire Institutional
corps Of the elementary schools in
this area.
The results Of these tests and
surveys are issued in volume and
are of wide interest in teaching
circles. This survey was also ex-
tended to the teachers college of
Columbia University, New York.
