Abstract
Rural schools are unmistakably a real and integral part of our national system of education. Our educators have long been directing their best efforts towards improving methods of education, attitudes and standards. But unfortunately, our rural schools have not been able to partake sufficiently of all the good to be derived from these studies. Non-scholastic influences are operating against their best efficiency. An analysis of these non-scholastic influences is the purpose of this thesis.
This is not to be considered in any manner an arraignment of the rural schools as such. Rather, it is because of an appreciation of the fitness and necessity of the rural school that the writer so regrets the existing conditions. Further, the writer is firmly convinced that responsibility for a majority of these abnormal conditions is directly traceable to weak or indifferent attitudes of supervision especially to the neglect in adjusting the young teacher to her new environment.
