Simplifying School Studies and Examinations

As a result of frequent complaints from parents, an investigation has been made by a committee of the school board of Lancaster, Pa., into the severity of the course of study pursued by the children. The committee in its report declares that the charges are fully sustained, and that examinations are given with absurd frequency. A radical simplification both of the program and of the examination system, is recommended.—Educational Forum.
