SECONDARY EDUCATION IN KENTUCKY

Schools and Types of ()rganizaz‘f07i. There are 738 high school
organizations in Kentucky. This number is in contrast to 758 high
schools operating last year and 783 operating two years ago. Five
years ago the state had 833 public and private high schools of various
types.

(it the 738 high schools now operating, 659 are complete organiza—
tions; i.e., they otter a program of studies through the twelfth grade.
Approximately one half of these complete high schools are organized
on the six—year basis (grades 7—12). This number represents a
decrease of nineteen ot' the six—year high schools during the past year.
The number of eight—four organizations this year is practically the
same as the number found last year. The state has thirty-five junior
high schools, grades 7—9. Nineteen of them are found in independent
districts while sixteen are located in county districts. There are only
nine senior high schools, grades 10—12. Eight of them are in inde-
pendent districts while one is a private secondary school.

The following table presents data regarding the number of the
various types of high schools found in Kentucky:

The above table not only shows the number of different types of
high school organizations but it also indicates the number of high
schools under different types of control—county districts, inde—
pendent districts, private, state and regional. It will be noted that
447 high schools are operated by county boards of education while 211
are maintained by boards of education in independent school districts.
Seventy—two are private secondary schools. The other eight repre—

institutions, the state-supported high schools for colored at Paducah
and Lincoln Ridge, the. State School for the Blind at Louisville, and
Ormsby Village School in Jetterson County, which is maintained by
Jefi'erson County and the municipality of Louisville.

Size of High Schools. The following table gives a picture of the

The above table shows that 66 high schools enroll fewer than 50
pupils. Last year 86 enrolled fewer than this number, a decrease of
20 in the number of these very small high school organizations.
Of the 66 high schools enrolling fewer than 50 pupils, 1-1 are private
and 18 are high schools for Negroes. This table also discloses that
there are 253 high schools enrolling fewer than 100 pupils. Last year
this number was 302 while two years ago this number was 348.
Of the 253 high schools enrolling fewer than 100 pupils, 12 are public
high schools for Negroes and 37 are private secondary schools.
This table also shows that 206 high schools enroll 200 or more pupils.
This number is in contrast to 191 high schools which last year
enrolled 200 or more pupils and 182 such high schools year before last.
It is apparent that we should no longer think in terms of small thirty-,
forty-, 01' fifty-pupil high schools. It is clear that we are definitely
headed in the direction of high schools that enroll 100 or more pupils.

The number of small public high schools which continue to exist
are not continuing so much because of a conviction of their worth but
rather 011 account of such factors as sparseness of population in areas
where they are located, poor road conditions for transportation to
larger and better centers, or inadequate financial ability to operate a
better system of schools.

As has been pointed out, the number of small high schools is

the beginning of the present school year, the State Board of Educa-
tion through its regulations, will impose the following requirements
in reference to the number of teachers employed and the number of
pupils enrolled in the various types of accredited high schools:

Class A High Schools

(1) Four—year high schools (grades 9—12) and three-year senior
high schools (grades 10—12) shall employ at least five full-time
teachers and have a bona fide enrollment of at least one hundred
pupils.

(2) Six-year high schools (grades 7—12) shall employ at least
seven full—time teachers and have a bona fide enrollment of at least
one hundred and fifty pupils, one hundred of whom shall be enrolled
in grades 9, 10, 11, and 12.

Class B High Schools

(1) Four-year high schools (grades 9—12) shall employ at least
three full—time teachers and have a bona fide enrollment of not fewer
than sixty pupils.

(2) Six-year high schools (grades 7—12) shall employ at least
four full-time teachers and have a bona tide enrollment of not fewer
than eighty-five pupils. sixty of whom shall be enrolled in grades 9,
10, 11, and 12.

Prior to this year, local school authorities were notified from time
to time regarding the fact that these new regulations were to go into
effect with the beginning of the present school year. The Division of
Supervision of the State Department will continue to cooperate with
the local school authorities in their efforts to adjust their high school
program to meet these requirements. It should be mentioned in. pass-
ing that during the past months county school authorities and the
Division of Supervision have worked out satisfactory programs by
which practically all of the small county high schools failing to meet
the class B requirements will be provided for at larger high school
centers next year.

Table IV shows a continuous growth in the number of high
schools from 1915 to 1935. Since 1935 there has been a decrease of
110 in the number of public and private high schools in the state.
Ninety-three of this number have been public high schools while
seventeen have been private secondary schools. The decrease in the
number of public high schools has come as a, result of. their merger into
larger centers.

*Beginning with the school year 1932—33. the enrollments of the 7th and 8th
grades of six—year high schools and of junior high schools are included in the
totals.

Table V presents an interesting picture of the increase in high
school enrollments in the different types of high schools since 1915
to the present day. In this increase in high school enrollments, one
finds an increase that is many times greater than the increase in the
state ’s population during the same period. Only one conclusion can
be drawn from these figures and that is the growing success of the
idea of high school education for all boys and girls of high school age
in the state. In this connection it is interesting to note that along
with this increase in enrollment has gone a decrease in the number of
high schools. This is a fact which proves that there is a, very definite
movement throughout the state in the direction of fewer and larger
high schools.

The character of our high school population has changed greatly
since 1915. Then the high school was thought of only as a school for
the few rather than an institution for the many. In fact, prior to
1908 there were fewer than 50 high schools in the state. They were
small, enrolling fewer than 5,000 pupils, and all were located in cities.
Practically all boys and girls who lived in rural areas were without
high school advantages except in so far as private schools were
organized. Many of these private schools did not offer work beyond
the eighth or ninth grades. It was not until 1908 that the counties
were legally bound to establish high schools and it was not until 1914

that districts independent of the county system were required by law
to proyide high school edueation l’or their boys and girls. Sinee the
date of these legal demands on eounty and independent districts, the
growth in numbers oE high schools and enrollments has been
phenomenal.

Table VI shows the situation as regards the number ol’ aeeredited
high schools, by years, since 190$). \Vhen one thinks of a. high school
in its true sense, one thinks of an institution that offers a program
of work through the twelfth grade. High schools that are organized to
give work which does not extend through the twelfth grade, except-
ing junior high schools (grades 7—9), should be looked upon as
incomplete, feeder schools for regularly organized high schools; i.e.,

schools that offer pupils a complete high school program through the,

twelfth grade.

The Library. The. school library should be a service center and
unifying agency of the school. As such it demands major considera-
tion on the part of school authorities, teachers, and pupils. Boards of
education. should not only appropriate money each year for the
purchase of new books but the money should be spent as well 215
appropriated for the purpose. In this connection it is pleasing to note
