Physical Education in Secondary Schools. Bulletin, 1917, No. 50

Overview & Synopsis

The Commission on the Reorganization of Secondary Education recognizes health as fundamental among the objectives of secondary education. The report contained in this bulletin was drafted for the commission by its committee on physical education, and after discussion and revision it has been approved by both the committee on physical education and the reviewing committee. Approval by the reviewing committee does not commit every member individually to every statement and every implied educational doctrine, but does mean essential agreement as a committee with the general recommendations. Appended are: (1) Bibliography for small high schools; and (2) General bibliography. (Contains 5 footnotes.)
