Abstract:
We as a modern nation are going forward with the world community into an increasing demand for more and more education for our whole population. The position taken here is that this demand for more education is a sound development, to be encouraged.
To encourage it, we could take more action to see that growing personal concern for education is developed in individual families, through concern by each family for its own participants in the school system. On the local scene, the growth in a family of a feeling of identity with "their" school can be used as a major means of increasing such concern. As a nation we should see that this family concern for local education expands to cover: (a) the question of extending, intensifying, and reasonably diversifying the education system; (b) preparedness to shoulder the higher taxation cost of a better system; and(c) the raising of active interest and participation in the government of the school system.
