Why Schoob Cost
In reflecting on increased sehbol costs in recent
years consideration should be given to other items
besides the decreased purchasing power of the dollar
and the increased school enrollment. These and
similar items do not tell the story.
Onr schools have become veritable “ shock-
absorbers” in that they have been forced to assume
many activities far remote from the early'concept
ion of school functions.
They have developed into sensitive instruments
reoording our social and economic tendencies, ac
curately reflecting the peoples* changing habits,
tastes and needs. Step by step they have added to
their scholastic labors varying functions, a partial
enemerathm of which will serve to illustrate the
part they play ip our everyday live«.
The schools responded with recreational facil
ities when these were found necessary as a vent for
the excess of youthful energy and leisure. When
adults courted similar privileges, school commun
ity centers came into existence.
. The moral development of youth being every
body’s concern, the schools, therefore, must supply
charactef training, tench, ethic« ahd make possible*
religious instruction.
It is emphasised that discipline has disappear
ed from the home, so the schools are turned to for
the fostering of respect for Jaw and order. Where
physical welfare is neglected, the sehools must safe
guard health by assuming madbnL supervision of the
pupils; since many shortcomings ftps traceable to
defective teeth, schools most have dental clinics.
There is a wide variety ef talent amongst pupils,
therefore the schools mnst Wttanpt individual ih-
strfeUtion; they taust discover and satisfy individual
inclinations and interests. This lias resulted in tike
Junior High Sehool A schotfl uf one thousand chil
dren toadies five hundred homes at their tooet
sensitive point, hence each Child mnst be schooled
as if he were the sole object of education. Child
hood’s personal problems, too, mnst be confronted,
hence the establishment of the Advisory System.
Where the homes are reluctant to cooperate With /
the schools, it has necessitated the establishment
o f the Visiting or Home Teacher Department.

cupations, hence Vocational Training; Girls are
seldom taught sewing and cooking in the home,

.Where boys must be kept close to the fatm, ’A gri
culture moot be taught
As High School pupils vary in personal choice
of college,. admission requirements of diverse in
stitutions have to be m et The schools are required
so t only to give intensiv« training to prepare pupils
for their colleges hut at the same t in s give general
training for those planning otherwise. M
Methods of instruction and subject matter are ,
constantly changing, making it imperative for in
structors and school executives to devote a goodly
portion of their oot-of-school föne to study, to keep
abreast of these changes.
A multiplicity of special weeks have become a
part of the school program, such as “ Safety First
Week,” “ Fire Prevention Week,” “ Accident Pre
vention Week,” “ Thrift W eek,” “ Cleanup W eek,”
all of which, with many others, are commendable.
Yes, our schools have become “ shock-absorb
ers” in the effort to stabilise thought, conduct and
action. If this bulging and complex program has
'increased school costs and become*an added burden
to the taxpayer, the greater weight has fallen
on the school executive and Boat’d of Education.
It is not a nine or ten months’ job, as popularly
supposed; it is a perpetual labor.
Will Rogers says in taking oUt insurance you bet
the company that you will get sick or die and they
bet yoa won’t. Well what’s he kicking about he has
a sure thing on the dying proposition and pretty close
to it on the other?
