THE FAMILY AND THE SCHOOL "To prepare us for complete living is the function which education has to discharge, and we judge the value of any training solely by reference to this end.

For complete living we must know in what way to treat the body, in what way to treat the mind, in what way to manage our affairs, in what way to bring up a family, in what way to behave as a citizen, in what way to utilize those sources of happiness which Nature supplies, and how to use all our faculties to the greatest advantage of ourselves and of others."-- HERBERT SPENCER.
"The final value of all institutions is their educational influence; they are measured morally by the occasions they afford and the guidance they supply for the exercise of foresight, judgment, seriousness of consideration, and depth of regard."-- JOHN DEWEY.
"Socialized education has four aims: First.

That the pupil shall acquire control of tools and methods of social intercourse,--language, number, social forms and conventions.
Second.

That the pupil shall be favorably introduced to society through acquaintance with science, arts, literature, and through participation in present social life.
Third.

That the pupil shall be trained for an occupation.
