Excerpt from A Handbook for Rural School Officers
The district form of school organization and control goes back to the beginnings of education at public expense in America, and, despite the many recent changes which have tended to evolve a larger unit for rural school administration, it still remains to-day the most commonly used form found in our American States. There are in the United States at present approximately 215,000 one-room rural schools under the district form of organization and control, and for these approximately 250,000 citizens are called upon to serve each year as school trustees. In addition, other trustees are required to direct the organization of the two-room and three-room and four-room village schools found in many places in our land. Though the smallest administrative unit under our political system to which any large powers are entrusted, the school trustees, or school directors as they are called in some of our States, nevertheless exercise very important functions under our laws. Each little school district has been created by law a body corporate and politic, and has the powers of a public corporation under the laws of the State. To the board of school trustees certain important legal powers have been given. These include the right to enter into contracts, to act in the name of the district, to sue and be sued, to purchase and hold title to property necessary for school purposes, and to employ teachers and supervise a school.
For the teacher in such a school much has been written, especially in recent years, and teachers' institutes have for long been provided with a view to instructing teachers better as to their work.
