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.
