Abstract

Many laymen and a few teachers are hazy on just what marks the line between freedom and license in the progressive school. The common fault is to allow too much rope too soon, and kinks and tangles result which sometimes develop Gordian complexities. From old New England--the author writes from the Connecticut State Department of Education--comes this set of well-considered principles of discipline. We endorse them as principles wholly valid for application in the public schools where American youth must achieve the unique discipline prerequisite for effective citizenship in a democracy.
