Change and Continuity in Elementary Education.

Bracey, Gerald W.

Principal, v75 n3 p17,19-21 Jan 1996

Over the years, little has changed about elementary education. As the "American common school," elementary education attained a universality of purpose and attendance far earlier than did secondary education. The 1965 Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), with Head Start's inception and renewed interest in early childhood education, really changed elementary education. (11 references) (MLH)
