Annual Report Of The Public Schools Of The City Of Madison Wisconsin 1904 1905 Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from Annual Report of the Public Schools of Nashville, Tenn: Scholastic Year 1904 1905 There is no lack Of interest on the part of either teacher or pupil, but all seem to enjoy their music period. The results are not the same in all schools. In trying to discover the cause for the difference, I think it chargeable to the failure of some teach ers to be governed by the outline furnished. Those Who have been controlled by it have invariably Obtained the best results. The teaching of music is as arbitrary in its demands for system as any other study in the course. We have a well graded series of books; these books, with the suggestive outline in the hand of the teacher, takes away all excuse for taking music from the outside, unless it be for special occasions. As you are aware, the High School is without any music. This is to be regretted, as this school really needs the exercise more than any other grade in the course. I most earnestly urge that some arrangement be made by which this school can have at least a few minutes practice each morning and a lesson once each week. Schools in the recently added territory have done very well. These pupils had never been taught music as a regular study, consequently all, regardless of grade, were put in the First Music Reader. In a year or two they will be sufficiently advanced to take the book belonging to their respective grades. I am again brought under renewed obligation to yourself and to the Board of Education for continued confidence and support.
