Excerpt from Classroom Organization and Control
The management of a school is a many-sided problem, lying, roughly speaking, between the intimate details of teaching method at the one extreme, and the coarser ad justments of administration and supervision at the other. As the term implies, the task is essentially an executive one the manager, that is, the teacher or the principal, being a director of the activities of children in their pursuit of an education.
The functions of this teacher executive are not only to direct; she must also formulate much of the policy she is to execute. To do this she must have some knowledge of the essential working principles upon which organization and management rest. These principles have been set forth in this book, not so much as a theoretical treatise, but rather by showing, as concretely as possible, how such principles are to operate among the plain practical facts which are to be dealt with in actual school situations.
It is assumed that in managing a school the first step is a clear aim; the second, carefully formulated plans; the third, execution; the fourth, evaluation of results. Thus, by implication, it is demanded of school managers that they shall take a critical attitude toward their work, and dismiss the idea that experience is all that counts in preparation.

Excerpt from Classroom Organization and Control
The plan followed in the development of the present addition to this series of textbooks is so well stated by the author in his Preface as to call for but little in addition from the editor of the series. That the author has worked out quite successfully the plan he has followed, and has produced a stimulating and a useful book, will doubtless be proved by its future use as a textbook for teachers in training, and as a reading circle book for teachers in service.
While not neglecting the psychological aspects of the problems of school management, the author has placed special emphasis on classroom organization and control as a social problem of large potential importance. Regarding the school as a great social instrument, education as a process of social adjustment, and school management as a constructive social undertaking to the details of which the most careful thought should be given, he has stressed the importance of the teacher conceiving clearly the important social purpose of the educative process, of making definite plans for classroom organization and control in the light of well-established social aims and demands, and of knowing how to determine the effectiveness of her labors in standard social as well as psychological terms. The volume is essentially a treatment of the old and ever-present problem of school management from the point of view of modern sociology, rather than from the psychological angle.
