INC ifci StT* PA *~2kLma/ ciH, *. d Why Are One Million People Teaching School? ?fi. Margaret Arrtagtou, Mn. Sarah Dudley Beaufort Faculty Members Agaia our second excerpt Is tak en tr oih the pamphlet, "Our Teachers ? Their Importance to Our Children and Our Commun ity," from which permission to quote was given us by the Nation al Association of Manufacturers: Just about everybody knows that the teaching profession does not lead to great wealth. Why, then, are one million people teaching In our public schools? "There are satisfactions to teach ing beyond anything which can be measured in dollars and cents. For teaching is a career chosen by many who have deep spiritual and ethical Convictions, belief in their own competence, and an unusual ability for getting along with others? particularly youngsters. Some find reward enough in watching and helping a young mind find itself, in having an exciting part in the awakening of self-con fidence and ability. Others know that young people can never ap preciate?nor be ready to accept responsibility for ? our heritage of liberty without experience, guid ance, and knowledge. The values and processes of de mocracy and its institutions are conveyed anew to 33 million young sters every day of the school year. And the teacher tries to develop in each pupil, in hundreds of subtle and lasting ways, a capacity to understand and share those ideals which have made our nation ad mired the world over among frce dom-loving people. Above all else, a teacher realizes that a youngster needs to feel that he belongs, that he is being cared for, and that he is wanted. Some times it is a childs' comment, per haps once in a year or once in a lifetime, which convinces a teacher that there is no finer or more satisfying profession. No on* has yet proved ttiat youth is more or less intelligent today than yesterday. However, educa tors now understand much more about how children react, think, and develop. When a youngster goes off to his first day of school, his mind is full of vague notions and ideas, oversimplifications and emotional attachments.

Every patent should fikve the way for the teacher by iAstUling tn the youngster respcct (of the school and the teacher. However, ? teacher does more than answer provoking questions, lie brings the color, the motion, and the meaning of the world into the school every day to sustain the interest and curiosity of thirty or more unique minds. Most difficult of all, the teacher must know when, where, and how to draw the line between 'growing up" and serious behavior problems derived from emotional upset, mental dis turbance, of social unhappiness. All the academic knowledge and understanding of fundamentals and of subject matter are of no avail if a teacher is not at ease in the presence of all children or does not understand how to deal with them. In this sense, teaching is an artistic performance of the highest order. Seldom has any profession been asked to do so much, for so many, with so little. At the moment, in some areas, there is a lack of classroom space. Repetition of facts and figures has dulled the urgency and the immediacy of the situation for many of us. But it is of vital concern to the teachers and students who are forced to work in overburdened, overaged, and overcrowded situations. This is a problem closer to home than many people realize or admit. Our schools are, for the most part, locally financed. Their programs, curricula, and standards are as varied as the needs of the com munities they serve. That is why just about all of the nation's tens of thousands of school districts are at work right now inventorying their own school resources in the light of present and long-term re quirements. Like everything else, a good school system costs more today than ever before and our citizens rightly hold the purse strings of the school budget. Therefore, every citizen has only himself to com mend or blame if schools in our frae society are superb, average, or below-average. If your school district has earned a reputation for treating teachers as full-fledged cltizcns and poten tial community leaders, if word has got around that your town pays good salaries and spares no ef fort in helping teachers feel at iiome, the chances are teacher shortage dilemmas will not plague your community. Responsible educators are the first to agree that schools and their programs, like all other areas of democratic life, should be subject ed to constant and continuing study and evaluation. It is just as incon sistent wifh our American ideals for citizens to indulge in criticism of the schools without first inform ing themaelver as to the facta as it would be for educators to mMM tain that their activities' should be' exempt form examination by lay man.
