| Abstract: | The article reports that faced with a shortage of qualified elementary teachers in 1949, schools in Minneapolis, Minnesota, developed an emergency program which has paid rich dividends. It was suggested that people with bachelor of arts degrees from liberal arts colleges might be trained on the job for elementary school teaching. The plan was submitted to the Minnesota State Department of Education to secure its cooperation in granting emergency permits and also to the College of Education of the University of Minnesota, which agreed to set up a training program and curriculum which when completed would qualify the participants for regular certification. The requirements for teachers under the emergency program were specifically stated. By the middle of July offers had been sent to 31 candidates. A classroom teacher was to be appointed to coordinate the entire program. Early in the fall, principals in buildings to which teachers on emergency permit were assigned met with the assistant superintendent in charge of elementary schools and with the helping teacher. Consultants in the special fields, such as art, music, physical education, and handwriting, agreed to give precedence to teachers on emergency permit. |
