Book excerpt: Excerpt from Improvement of School Buildings and Grounds A well ordered, well kept school garden would not only give instruction in the best practical methods in horticulture, but would give an introduction to the plant life of the vicinity and, in many cases, would so open the eyes of the pupils and others in uenced by them as to give a closer and happier relationship with Nature and a broader and more generous view of life. Improved methods and appliances in gardening would give an additional interest to life in the country. Why should not our children be taught to take something of that interest in Nature which so delights one in the writings of Thoreau or Emerson, of John Burroughs or of Bradford Torrey? To enrich the school life of the country boy with a wider knowledge of trees and owers, Of birds and other animals wouldbe of great prae tical value to him in whatever circumstances his subsequent life might be spent. Interest in such objects is a source of perennial pleasure. One cherishes in memory special occasions of suc cesses or surprises in finding rare owers or unusual numbers of more common ones and enjoys again their beauty as Words worth so quaintly expresses it in his poem on The Daffodils.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from School Buildings, School Grounds, and Their Improvement: Kansas, 1911 Many requests have come to this department from rural and village communities for information and suggestions relative to the construction of school buildings. The frequency of these inquiries is sufficient excuse for the present attempt to offer some advice and to give some illustrations based upon the conclusions of modern architects, and of those school authorities who have given much study to this important subject. However, a still stronger reason for the present attempt lies in the great number of school buildings in this state that represent no effort to comply with the modern demand for either architectural effect or economic or sanitary needs. The old type of the box schoolroom is, unhappily, too familiar to us all. The wonderful improvement that has taken place in public buildings in general, and in the homes of our land, finds but little counterpart in the average school. A trip through the rural districts of the state will convince the most doubting that the average schoolhouse and its grounds are bare, harsh, cheerless and unattractive. The child naturally loves the beautiful. In childhood the mind is impressionable and, whether it is realized or not, the discomforts, lack of harmony and beauty in the average school building unconsciously make a deep and lasting impression on his mind, tending to low ideals, and especially to the lack of care for the property of others. Many farmhouses of to-day are models of comfort and beauty. The buildings are often surrounded by orchards, well-kept groves, neat shrubbery and flower beds in the dooryards. Surely the time has arrived when the people of Kansas should interest themselves in school environment, and by well-directed efforts afford an opportunity to the child to study the beauties of nature at first hand. Location. "In selecting a site for a school building, the questions of drainage, convenience, beauty of surroundings and accessibility should have prime consideration. Select, if possible, some plat of ground slightly elevated, that the surface may be properly drained and kept as free as possible from mud.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Evaluation and Improvement of School Buildings, Grounds and Equipment Although school plants have been roughly evaluated ever Since they were first constructed, it is only within the last few years that this evaluation has approached Objectivity. During-the last decade a number Of score cards by which school plants and their equipment may be rated have been devised. Each Of these is composed Of a num ber Of items, most Of which apply to building plans as well as to buildings already in existence. In addition to the list Of items, several cards provide, either as an integral or as an accompanying part Of the scale, more or less detailed suggestions both as to the accepted standards and the most common deviations below these standards. Thus a superintendent or anyone may use these scales not only for actually rating a school plant or proposed plans but also for improv ing faults in an existing plant. It is true that these scales yield more reliable ratings when used by experts but they in general are simple enough and are accompanied by such directions that they can be used with profit by a school administrator who is willing to devote a little time to their study. In order to secure reliable ratings for buildings it is recommended that at least two, or better three, persons do the scoring and that their scores be averaged.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Landscape Improvement of Rural School Grounds The following bulletin, written at our request by Professor J. W. Gregg of the University of California, with the addition of lists of trees, shrubs and ﬂowers, suitable for school grounds, furnished by Assistant Professor Ralph T. Stevens, and Miss K. D. Jones, while designed to meet some of the immediate and pressing needs of our schools, has elements of permanent value. It, therefore, should not only receive careful consideration now, but be kept for future reference and study whenever the planning or planting of school grounds is to be undertaken. The detailed plans for grounds are sufficiently numerous and varied to be distinctly helpful to any district where the school grounds are ample enough to admit of landscape treatment. Grounds of such amplitude are of course desirable for every school. It is not always feasible to provide them in large cities, but there is no suburban or rural district in California that can not have them if only there be a' resolute and an intelligently directed effort to do so. In districts where the present population is too small to provide or to maintain such grounds, the desired ends can be obtained by judicious consolida tion of neighboring schools. Such consolidation would result in a triple benefit, for not only could the school grounds be enlarged and beauti fied, but the school buildings could be made more spacious, and more convenient, while the courses of instruction, made more numerous and more varied, could be carried on under better conditions.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from School Grounds: Their Design and Development Modern education seeks to contribute to the expansion of the life of the child by providing an environment of beauty - buildings of pleasing architecture and grounds with the charm of landscape gardening. Our school grounds should be attractive, placed where they will conveniently serve their tributary districts according to the best standards of city planning, large enough and of such well chosen topography as to provide amply for playgrounds, parking, borders, and gardens, all so judiciously planned, that their orderliness and obvious wisdom of arrangement become elements of beauty in the unity of the whole. It is advisable to have a well studied plan for every school ground, regardless of size. A definite portion of the funds allotted for building purposes ought to be set aside for the development of the grounds, in the very smallest districts as well as in those which can afford to secure the professional services of a landscape architect. A worthy appreciation of artistic school buildings has been created during recent years, especially in the cities, and in the more progressive rural districts. Construction should be the basis of building design. With this in mind, false fronts are to be avoided, especially that too prevalent imitation of the "mission" style with weird scrolls concealing a simple gabled roof. Closely following the desire for good architecture has come an understanding of the value of landscape development. Our schools have assumed a more important role in community life through the wider use of the buildings and playgrounds as public meeting places. The location of such an important feature should receive. careful consideration from the viewpoint of modern city planning.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from School Improvement Association, Pensacola, Florida: Story of the First Two Years If, however, the school is well equipped and fitted for his recep tion; if there he instilled in him a sincere interest in the work prescribed by his instructors, his progress is rapid, and whatever he may choose as his vocation, however severe the training that is necessary to his success in his trade, that training will receive good consideration from him, for he has learned to interest himself in those things which are necessary to his success. Fine school buildings may be erected by city governments and adequate mechanical and practical appliances be installed, yet if the building be bare of those things Which the child mind finds of inter est, the finest architecture edifice will become, to the child, but an ugly pi'e of stone and mortar} There must be life, and nature, and a touch of human hands and feeling in the institution to bring forth an interested response from the pupil. And it is to give to the school system of 'pensacola that touch of personal interest and nature that appeals to the child, that the School Improvement Association purposes. A comfortable building, good sanitation, pleasant grounds, and agreeable school room, and a teacher interested in the development of children, will inject into the child a sincere regard for his indi vidual success and the accomplishment of his work. This can best be done by interesting the parents of the children in the surroundings in which their children live the greater part of their day.
