Excerpt from Consolidated Rural Schools
The principle of the consolidated school is simple: A strictly modern school building is erected, when possible, in the center of the township; and provision is made to transport all pupils who live too far away to walk. In some cases, the school authorities own the conveyance, and some times it is owned by private individuals.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book probes the issue of rural school systems in America. From the mid-19th century, the discussion around rural education has wrestled with balancing local control with increasing demands for efficiency and equity. This book examines that debate through the lens of school consolidation, exploring the consolidation movement in detail from the 1890s to 1930s, to shed light on the ongoing challenges of meeting the unique educational needs of rural students and communities. The author approaches the history of rural education reform through the prisms of social and cultural history, exploring how Americans have conceptualized the purpose of education and the best means to deliver it to all children. In examining the arguments made by proponents and opponents of school consolidation, the complexities of the debate, and its long-lasting impact, the author challenges readers to confront the full range of issues that shaped rural education in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
