Visual Education Program Being Enlarged in Elyria
The Elyria school system expands visual education in the second semester of 1937-38 with 189 films planned for high and elementary classes. Limited projection equipment prompts scheduling challenges while a hoped for school film library would allow subjects to be shown alongside current coursework. The program, praised by state officials, aims to make lessons more vivid and aligned with modern educational practices.
