Excerpt from Syllabus for Secondary Schools, 1910
In December 1882 Doctor Murray in explaining the revision of his syllabus writes: The present syllabus is a revision of the summary statement of the system of Regents examinations which was issued two years ago. The Regents have received so many proofs of the utility of that statement in facilitating the introduction and management of these examinations in the academical institutions under their visita tion, that they have deemed it expedient to issue it in a revised' and more detailed form. The experience of the past two years, aided by the friendly criticisms of principals and teachers, has sug gested various improvements in the administration of the system, which will be found here explained. The additional experience in the practical working of the system of examinations has strength ened the opinion that their effect upon the schools and upon the scholars is entirely salutary. Besides their principal and original use in providing a basis for the distribution of the funds intrusted to the Regents, they have served a higher educational purpose in elevating and regulating the standard of scholarship in the academies of the State.
