 15. "Two-teacher schools have a 

 marked educational advantage 

 over one-teacher schools. Likewise 

 eight-room schools, with an appro- 

 priate building, etc., have some 

 substantial advantages over smaller 

 schools, and are preferred by many 

 educators and by a substantial 

 number of farm people." Page 

 63. 



Tlie fact that the number of .school 

 districts, by far the greater percentage 

 of which are one-room school cSstricts, 

 have decreased during the past four 

 years by approximately 6.000 and been 

 replaced by larger districts is indica- 

 tion enough that legislation has suc- 

 cessfully brought much of the above 

 I.'\.\ recommendation to realization. 



It is remarkable that the school 

 legislation during this period has in the 

 main so closely reflected the policy of 

 the lAA as expressed in the \.\\ School 

 Report of 194-1. The .'^4 farmer mem- 

 bers of the \\\ School Committee 

 should be commended for their ability 

 to visualize so clearly the needs of Il- 

 linois schools and to recommend such 

 widely approved steps designed to bring 

 about reorganization.
