Excerpt from Training Courses for Rural Teachers

Sir: The improvement of the rural schools of the United States is, I believe, our most important school problem. The most impor tant factor in their improvement must be better educated and better trained teachers. The education and training of teachers should always have some Special reference to the work of the schools in which they are to teach. Therefore any intelligent attempt to adjust the courses of study and training in the normal schools to meet the special need of teachers in schools of the Open country, villages, and small towns is worthy of careful study and wide publication. For this reason, I recommend that the accompanying manuscript on Training courses for rural teachers, prepared by A. C. Monahan, specialist in rural education in this bureau, and R. H. Wright, presi dent of the State Teachers Training School, of Greenville, N. C., be published as a bulletin of this bureau for distribution principally among State and county superintendents, principals and teachers of normal schools and of high schools having classes for young men and women preparing themselves for teaching in the rural schools, and among members of boards having control of schools in which teachers are trained.
