Furthermore, when parents become alarmed because of some sensational controversy, or a series of critical articles, such excitement is a confession, perhaps unconscious, of the appalling ignorance which parents have of their own school system. It is as if they were saying, "if the schools are doing the terrible things which the magazines say they are doing, we had better wake up and change our school."
