Administration and Supervision of Public School Adult Education in Cities of 10–25,000 Population in the State of New Mexico

Abstract

This study was stilated by the unavailability of any reports on specific practice and procedure for use in setting up a functional program of adult education in the fall of 1955 in Los Alamos, New Mexico, a city of some 13,000 population.

Although a small program, consisting for the most part of courses offered to teachers by colleges and universities, did exist in Los Alamos, no provision was made for a director of the program, no records existed showing the courses that had been offered, or courses that were needed, no provision had been made to finance a program, and no records had been kept of students who had attended the classes.
