ELEMENTARY EDUCATION AND THE OREGON NORMAL
SCHOOL.
This is Education Week, proclaimed so by the president and
so recognized by various states and institutions. Oregon, no less
interested in education than her neighbors, is employing it as an
. occasion for review of her educational progress, and as an oppor
tunity to visualize a more complete system of education for the
future. It is easy to recall much of commendable advancement
during recent years, and equally easy to recognize the need for
further development. Education is dynamic and must keep pace
' with industrial and social progress. In order to plan wisely for
the continued growth of the educational system of the state, it is
necessary that present conditions be thoroughly understood.
It is the desire of those interested in education in Oregon to
plan for the improvement of the entire educational system from
the kindergarten to the university. Naturally, in viewing the
, entire system, the thought is inclined to linger upon its foundation,
. the elenlentary school. In order to plan effectively for the im
" provement of the public school system, it becomes immediately ap
parent that two features enter prominently into the development
of the schools. These are the material factor on the one hand,
including adequate equipment in buildings, school furniture,
course of study and text books; and the vital factor on the other
hand, consisting in properly trained and cultured teachers. There
can be no efficient school system, no matter what the organization,
without properly trained teachers- At the present time, the state
of Oregon requires a limited amount of professional training for
all teachers entering the r.rofcssion. Thin is one of the features
of Oregon's superiority educationally.
The institution provided by the state for tho training of
teachers for tho elementary schools, tho Normal School at Mon
i mouth, is limited in its capacity. The demand for trained teach
ers is now outrunning tho ability of the Normal School to pre
pare them, nnd the demand of students desiring to prepare for
teaching has become greater than tho Normal School can meet.
More students are applying at the Oregon Normal School for ad
mission and training than can be properly accommodated with its
present equipment. This year, the increase in enrollment is more
than fifty per cent abovo that of the corresponding date in 1921.
Lnst year, the total attendance was more than fifty per cent .great
er than for the preceding year. Thus, within two years, the at
tendance has more thnn doubled. Everything points to a continua-
tion of this increase. Notwithstanding the crowded conditions,
practically tho samo faculty, with one additional member, aside
from critic teachers, is endeavoring to carry on the increased
work. A number of classes register more than one hundred stu
dents. "At least two-thirds of the classes in the Normal School are
much larger than they should be, and entirely too large to do tho
work required of them. It will be impossible to meet the require
ments of efficient training of teachers without increased facilities.
Moreover, the standing of tho Normal School among other similar
institutions, as well as its standardization with the U. S- depart
ment of education, is jeopardized. There is immediate need along
three particular lines, not to speak of plans for future growth,
These imperative needs are additional members of faculty, a new
training school at Independence, and increased living facilities for
students. Additional class rooms will be a requirement of the
jinn future.
Oregon is at the present time inadvertently neglecting her
mini School nnd allowing herself to fall far behind other states
in her facilities for training her teachers. l?y way of comparison,
btntes not as large or as populous or as wealthy are providing con
siderably more for normal school support than is Oregon. Idaho,
with a population of only a little more than half that of Oregon,
and an assessed valuation of less than half, provides one and one
third limes as much for its normal schools. Arizona and New
Mexico, with less than half the population and two-thirds the as
sessed valuation, furnish three times as much each for normal
schools as does Oregon. Other stales are making corresponding
provision for tho training of teachers for their elementary schools.
Colorado, with. a population a little larger and an assessed valua
. tion one and one-half more, appropriates four times as much for
its normal schools. Washington, with less than twice the popula
tion ami about twice tho assessed valuation, gives approximately
six limes as much for normal schools. California, with four times
tho population and three times the assessed valuation, grants over
eleven times as much for its normals.
It is believed that when the people of Oregon know the im
perative need of their one institution established in the interest
of the boys and girls in the primary and grammar schools of tho
state, they will not withhold the ineagro sum necessary for the
adequate support of that iiistit'i'.ion.
