Excerpt from Design for a City School Building The class room is the fundamental unit of the school-house design. In American practice it is distinguished on the one hand from the recitation room, which has only chairs or settees for the pupils and is used, as its name implies, only for reci tations (or sometimes also for lectures and dictation exercises), and on the other from the general study room, which is found more frequently in Europe than With us, and in which a number of class es, aggregating a hundred or two of pupils, spend the assigned hours of study between recitations. The normal American class room accommodates from 30 to 50 (or rarely up to 60) pupils as fixed desks. In some special or private schools the number in a class room is as low as 25; but economy of administration makes b it desirable that the number should not fall below 30 to 35, while efficiency demands that it should not greatly or often ex esed 40. Each pupil has a desk, and the total floor area should not be less than 18 square feet per pupil, with at least 216 cu bic feet as the minimum cubic volume per pupil. Twenty square feet and 260 feet, respectively, are better figures for all ex cept the lower grades attended by small children. A slightly oh long room, with the teacher's desk at one end, is the best shape. Thus for a 40-desk class room in an upper grade grammar school.

Excerpt from Score Card for City School Buildings Large sums of money have been spent, and still larger amounts must be made available, for the housing of school children. In the United States. In communities in which school accommodations are in use which were provided a generation or more ago, there needs to be a careful survey with a View to reconstruction 'b'r abandonment of buildings that are at present unfit for the purpose for which they are used. The ordinary observer is apt to think of a building as. Good or poor in terms of some particular part of the building with which he is familiar. There is need for much more care ful scrutiny and evaluation of each one of the elements which goes to make up a satisfactory school plant. Some years ago the authors of Standards for City School Buildings, which appear in this document, began to develop a score card and standards for the measurement of school buildings. Growing out of an experience in evaluating more than a thousand school buildings and in the careful study of school building standards, there have been developed a score card upon which is recorded the number of points out of a thousand assigned to any particular building and this state ment of standards. The score card and the accompanying standards have been used to advantage for two separate pur poses: first, the scoring of school buildings in the light of a school building program to be developed by a city, and sec ond, in the checking of plans for new school buildings.

Excerpt from Modern School Buildings, Elementary and Secondary: A Treatise on the Planning, Arrangement, and Fitting of Day and Boarding Schools The published information on the subject of school buildings in this country, especially with regard to those for the purpose of secondary education, is curiously deficient. The writer of this work, when joining, some years ago, a body concerned with the building and management of a considerable number of Secondary Schools, felt very strongly the want of a book dealing with the ordinary questions arising in connection with their buildings. A careful search, however, elicited the fact that no such thing existed. There was of course Mr Robson's well-known "School Architecture," but this, brought out in 1874, a period when drastic changes in tuition and in the arrangement of school buildings were in progress, has become for the most part inapplicable to the modern style of school. It is also practically confined to the Board Schools of London, and a short chapter in it, with another in Mr Robin's "Technical School and College Building," represent the literature dealing with the subject of buildings for Secondary Schools. The present volume is intended to supply this deficiency, and while both Elementary and Secondary Schools are included, the latter have been made its principal aim. They are dealt with before the Elementary Schools, on the ground that it is more desirable that the methods of Secondary School buildings should find their way into the Elementary Schools, than that those of the Elementary School should be adopted in the Higher Schools, as has hitherto been too much the case; probably owing to the fact that the books published on school buildings treat nearly all questions from the point of view of the Board School.

Excerpt from High School Buildings The popularity of "High School Buildings, Volume I," which is now practically out of print, has encouraged the compiler to present this second collection of illustrations and sketch plans of American secondary schoolhouses. Even in so short a period as six years, since the earlier book appeared, there have been large changes in American secondary education and these have been reflected accurately in the design and construction of buildings. The high school has entirely outgrown its academic limitations and traditions and has broadened its influence and its curriculum. Thus, the industrial arts and household arts are no longer "basement subjects;" the natural sciences are now taught in a way to require diversified laboratories; the physical care of students has been extended to necessitate very complete gymnasia and lunch rooms; and the movement for the "wider use" of the school plant by adults has become a fixed fact which school authorities have recognized thru better auditorium and night school facilities. The high school building of the present day is far more inclusive and complicated in the number and type of activities which it serves, and the structures illustrated in the following pages bear out this statement. A departure has been made from the earlier book in the shape of text matter. This consists of articles which appeared originally in the School Board Journal and which aroused considerable attention as statements of fundamental principles in the field of high school architecture. The hearty thanks of the compiler and publishers are hereby expressed to each of the architects and engineers represented in the book.

Excerpt from American School Building Standards The present work is offered to the public in the belief that there is still great need for the dissemination of reliable information regarding correct design and construction in public school buildings in this country, and that "every little helps." The author makes no claim of originality for most of the matter contained in the work, unless it be as regards arrangement and selection. He has drawn freely upon all the well known modern works upon the subjects treated, modifying conclusions as experience and the most recent authorities approve. The controlling motive has been to so condense and standardize the best present day practice as to produce a compact handbook for ready reference, eliminating both the historical and purely aesthetic phases of the subject, for the sake of utility. The author acknowledges help received from, and opinions influenced by, publications of The Boston Schoolhouse Commission, Mr. Edmund M. Wheelright, Prof. A. D. F. Hamlin of Columbia University, Mr. Warren R. Briggs, Mr. M. C. Huyett, Prof. Rolla C. Carpenter of Cornell University, Prof. S. H. Wood-bridge of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Mr. R. Clipston Sturgis, Mr. W. B. Ittner and others. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Bulletin of One, Two, Three and Four Room School Buildings In considering the oor space of a building, the matter of cloak rooms, vestibules, library and fuel room ought to receive careful attention. These are essential elements in the planning of any school building of whatever size or material. Separate cloak rooms for boys and girls should be arranged. They should be provided with hooks for the hats, cloaks and coats, and shelves for the dinner baskets. The doors of the cloak rooms should open into the main room. To have them open only into the vestibule adds considerably to the problem of discipline. It is especially important to keep the cloak rooms in a sanitary condition. To that end ample light and ventilation should be provided. A small room for library and storage purposes has come to be one of the most useful agencies of the rural school. \vith very little additional expense such a room may be provided with books, book cases, reference works, a table and a few chairs. This will give a place for the older pupils to study when they have special work to prepare. The library room is an in dispensible part of the modern country school house. A fuel room or fuel basement should also be included in the plans. It will cost less than a separate coal house and will add greatly to the convenience of the school plant.
