Enrichment And Supplemental Materials In An Adequate Reading Program In Grades One Through Five, John C. Ayers
Enrichment And Supplemental Materials In An Adequate Reading Program In Grades One Through Five, John C. Ayers
Graduate Student Research Papers
It was the purpose of this study to consider materials for enrichment and supplemental purposes to strengthen the present reading program as it now exists in the Castle Rock Elementary School. The writer has found, however, that while materials do have a prominent role in reading, materials alone can not support an adequate program unless a more complete picture of the reading process is established and operating. This study will therefore concern itself with supplemental and enrichment materials as an integral part of the complete program and not necessarily as entities in themselves.

Effective Administrative Policies In Conducting An Interscholastic Program In The High School, James N. Rodgers
Effective Administrative Policies In Conducting An Interscholastic Program In The High School, James N. Rodgers
Graduate Student Research Papers
Athletics had a long, bitter struggle to find its way into the schools. The corruption that grew out of the pre-school athletics finally awakened the school administrators in the early part of the twentieth century to do something about it.

Administrative problems have prevailed in the schools ever since the entrance of athletics into the educational curriculum. It can be safely said, however, that the problems are fewer, primarily because of the education of the administrators. The current problems are centralized …
