Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hand Book of the Detroit Junior High Schools: 1916-1917 This is for most pupils the beginning of adolescence. It is the time of readjustment. New visions, new as pirations and hopes spring into existence at this time in the child's development. Life broadens. Individual ity asserts itself and conscious reasoning looms large on the mental horizon. Everywhere there is change. So in school there is need of a shift from the ordinary methods of procedure of the elementary school if the varying needs are to be met adequately. The function of the junior high school is to meet this new situation and to give the pupil a maximum amount of knowledge and training in a minimum of time. The school organization is adapted to fit the varying needs of the pupils by offering differentiated courses. Unnecessary reviews are eliminated. The work is new, - there is no rehash of work already gone over. It is vital because it is what the pupil wishes to do or is able to master. Given varied interests, abilities, and needs, there must be provided different types of work, and this work must be related to and interwoven with real life activities.
