It is a fallacy to assume that because a school is small it must necessarily be a poor school. Unfortunately size, number and quantity have become criteria of success in our American way of life, and educators, too, sometimes associate bigness with goodness. This fact has been noted by the American Association of School Administrators. True, the small school poses some problems and limitations not found in the larger schools, but there are also some definite advantages in the small school. It is the purpose of this paper to focus attention on the small school and to suggest ways and means of providing an enriched curriculum in the small school despite the limitations. Particular attention will be directed to the Windermere, Florida, Elementary School, where the writer is employed. / Typescript. / "August, 1956." / "Submitted to the Graduate Council of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science." / Advisor: Marian Black, Professor Directing Paper. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 53-54).
