Such criticism totally ignores the facts that the school has control of the child for only a fraction of his life: that other powerful factors such as recreations, entertainments, movies, television, and cheap literature are operating persist- ently and eltectively to divert the attention, interests, and time of the child from education. To offset these negative influences, the school seelcs to instill in each student moral insight, a sense of judgment, good taste, and a sense of responsihility toward malcing his individual lille a worthy one.
