copy Russia. These people failed
to recognize that with all Of its
weaknesses the American educa-
tional system has helped to de-
velop in America the hig h c S
standard of living. Do we wish to
copy Russia's system?" she asked.
Our educational program must
be related to the kind of people
that we wish to develop. Therefore
to strengthen our educationl pro-
gram we need to do the following
Review the purposes of educa-
ton and to define clearly and
specifically the primary reponsi-
bilities of the school.
Recruit and hold high quality
teachers - to realize the teacher 5
load, allowing tinle for study and
class preparation and work with
individuals and small group of
pupils.
Utilize the best available teach
! ing aids.
Research in the field of guild
ance to learn more about desir-
able human behavior and to dis
cover the best effective teaching
procedures.
Miss Preston enlarged on each
one of these bringing out the fact
that education is the first line of
defense that the quality of edu-
cation through brain power will
protect this nation concept OF free
