A Solid Front for Education

Abstract

MUCH has been said about the crisis in education which threatens the very foundations of our democracy. Here is a clear-cut picture of the entire situation—the cold, unvarnished facts about the cause of the crisis; the things done and planned to surmount it; the responsibilities that must be assumed by the individual teacher if the things done and planned are to be effective in assuring the educational security of our nation. The author, one of the great educational leaders and organization executives of our time, is Executive Secretary of the National Education Association, under the banner of which, with the other twenty-eight NEA Departments, the Music Educators National Conference is aggressively sharing the “Solid Front for Education.”
