Synopsis

This book on education administration in New York City, from 1903-1913, includes an investigation of the Department of Education’s organization, status, and procedure. It also offers recommendations for improvement, defining the activities of the Department of Education and the status of the Board of Education as it exists in relation to the city government and its fiscal authorities. The authors conclude that the relationship between these authorities and the Board, as well as the internal organization of the Board itself, are the direct causes for many of the inefficiencies within the Department of Education. They suggest that the large size and complicated organization of the Board of Education prevents its members from understanding the educational and business problems they are tasked with. As a solution, the authors propose a reorganization of the Board to include only eight members and a focus on legislative and policy making responsibilities rather than administrative and departmental oversight.
