Vicious Circle in Education Circles North Carolina
Raleigh reports the state department of public instruction seeks to break a vicious circle in education. Superintendent A. T. Allen says small high schools dominate, with 34 varied subjects and teachers handling up to seven subjects, leading to poor college preparation and weak teachers. He argues solutions must focus on the smaller schools to improve college readiness and teaching quality.

Allen proposes standard high school subjects to break vicious circle
Mr Allen argues many teachers in state high schools teach in too many fields and are unprepared for several subjects. He calls for standardizing curricula, limiting units, and pairing subjects like English and Latin under shared teachers, with colleges and employing agencies cooperating to implement.
