State Superintendent
Declares Oct
Meets Need of
Students

Thomas D. Bailey states, 1T
seems to me the only genuine
evaluation of any school program
are the answers to the questions:
How we'll does it meet the needs
of the pupils?" and How well
does it prepare our youth for
Life.
"For, after all, meeting the
individual needs of the youth of
our State is the primary purpose
of our educational system.
Cali your actions, all our pro-
grams, should be designed to
meet these needs and to better
prepare our youth for those things
which we believe they will be re-
uuired to know after they leave
school. If we fail to meet these
needs, we fail as educators.
sThe Diversified Cooperative
Training Program has been very
instrumental in preparing youth
for life.
"The Oct program, well de-
signed to meet the individual
needs of boys and girls and Of
fering the proper balance between
formalized education and voca-
tional training, meets the criterla
for a practical school proram.
"It approaches the problem OF
building aspirations and under
standings and baseline of prac-
ticality. 1t has been developed
with the needs of children upper
most in the thinking and plann-
ing of it's sponsors with empha-
sis on teaching good work habits
through actual experience.
Gail Florida should be proud
that the Oct program is meeting
some of the fundamental needs OF
Florida youth"
