Dialogue
Primary and Secondary Education in the United States
(Mr. Lee and Mr. Canfield)
Mr. L. Good morning, Mr. Canfield. Some time ago you promised to
give me a general picture of Primary and Secondary education in
the United States. Do you happen to have any free time this morn-
ing?
Mr. C. Yes, I do. Sit down right here, Mr. Lee, and we can begin. You
know my son Jerry, don’t you?
Mr. L. Of course. He is in College now, isn’t he?
Mr. C. Yes, he is in his second year at Stanford University. I’ll give you
a resume of his early education, as an illustration. He entered Gram-

eight years he graduated at the age of fourteen and entered High

he was eighteen years old and ready for College.

of Junior High school and 3 years of Senior High School.
Mr. L. Does the Government control the choice of plans?
Mr. C. No, the National Government has no control whatsoever over the
school. Each state administers its own system. This explains the
