Grady Elementary 1920 Voters For, 460 Votes Against Commissioners Name Board Of Trustees rim ;Good Teaching Is The' Heart Of Edncatienv - That schools exist,' for children is a commonly accepted truism. Parents and public at large rightfully expect that schools and other means of education shall encourage and cause maximum growth in children in the development of desirable habits, "attitudes, and com petencies. The fruitition of these characteristics in each child is thej aspiration of every parent' and therefore becomes the objective toward which we ar' privileged to work. ; U V. Good teaching is our most effective means of fulfilling our obliga tion to children and to the State. While buildings' equipment, and supplies are 'Necessary aids to education, it is nevertheless true that these physcal1 facilities do not In themselves guarantee a good in structional program. Good teaching is dependent on Intelligent and Well trained people who understand children and know how to teach them, who can determine with chjldren what patterns ef growth are appropriate to their individual and group development, and who them selves reflect, the results and personal advantages of .the same, things which they crave for children. Basically, good teachers and good teach ing constitute Jbe heart of our whole . educational enterprise. To end that' schools may offer the advantages of good instruction, it is my hope that we shall contlnously focus our educational planning and efforts on the growth of children, perfecting techniques of teach ing, and in developing the kinds of butractional aids which will facili tate learning. 'Much, however, remains to be learned by many'. Learn ing to be , a good; teacher is a continuous and challenging process. It is my hope, as we work with children: that we shall continuously employ those processes through which we Improve our proficiency In our The meeting was called to or der by the president.
