-'EEPHIE IQRQKEID GRIHID IBILACBIIYS 09932, 4 4 . 4, . . . ' 1.11 . , History of Education in Fostoria fCon't.l This shows an increase in city population of 4472, and an increase in high school population of six hundred and five percent. The number of teachers has increased from five in 1900 to thirty in 1930, to meet the great increase in the enrollment. A great many noteworthy changes have taken place in the last thirty years since the beginning of the new century. In addition to the great increase in enrollment it has been necessary to broaden our school curriculum to include many more offerings and branches in order that every boy and girl may be given an opportun- ity to take those subjects that will best develop the talents within them. In the evaluation of industrial procedures modern methods of teaching, known as directed or supervised study, socialized recitation, project method, all of which emphasize active student part participation, have made their appearance in the high school. The student is given so many more opportunities for apprecia- tion and development in music, physical education and health, art, literature, mathematics, science, drama, debate, journalism, clubs, and many other activities curricular and extra-curricular. The richness of the curriculum and the better qualified teacher has added blessings and benefits to thousands of boys and girls and to a host of parents and friends. It is not too much to say that in the moulding of the best lives of this community the school has worked hand in hand with the home and the church. ' It is reasonable to suppose that any program of education can justify itself only in terms of the aims and objectives sought. There are many more branches of knowledge than any program of education can hope to embrace. To make a 'judicious selection of the courses and the aims by which their worth will be judged requires most careful consideration. The following seem to be acceptable and tenable objectives for future consideration: character, health, worthy home membership, citizenship, vocational guidance, and proper use of leisure time. Those subjects will be most useful which make the largest contributions to these ends. In attaining these ends we are guided by the true goal of education in a democracy, which is to develop in each individual the knowledge, interests, ideals, habits, attitudes and powers whereby he will find his place to shape both himself and society toward ever nobler ends. The youth of Fostoria is worthy of the highest consideration and merits of the earnest endeavor of every citizen of Fostoria to do everything within his or her power to avail them the greatest possible development.
