FOREWORD

This bulletin has been prepared by the staff of the Division of
Instructional Services, Bureau of Instruction, primarily for the pur-
pose of presenting significant information relating to the program
of secondary education in Kentucky, and the classification of high
schools for the 1956-57 school year.

It is regrettable in a sense that some of our high schools must
be given emergency classifications; however it should be fully
recognizable that standards of accreditation must be met if we are
to provide the kind of educational opportunity that will enable our
youth to meet the challenges of this age. With the financing of the
Foundation Program Law, improvements are already apparent in
our secondary education program.

I acknowledge with much appreciation, the efforts that have
been put forth in the compilation of the material and data contained
in this bulletin both on the part of the Department of Education and
local school personnel. I trust that members of the profession and
others will find it useful and informative.

 KENTUCKY HIGH SCHOOLS—195657

Kentucky public and private high schools are classified and
accredited by the State Board of Education. This requirement is set
forth in the law which requires that each school district in the state
provide an approved twelve-grade school service and that rules and
regulations be adopted governing the quality of this service. The
law also provides that the “Superintendent of Public Instruction
shall annually prepare or cause to be prepared and submit for ap-
proval and publication by the State Board of Education a list of all
public and private high schools or other secondary schools in the
state, showing their classifications.” The classifications are given on
recommendation of the Commission on Secondary Schools of the

Kentucky Association of Colleges, Secondary, and Elementary
Schools.

This year, there are 549 public and private high schools in the
state. Last year, the number was 570. Of the 549 high schools now
operating, 494 are complete organizations in that they offer work
through the twelfth grade. The remaining 55 high schools are ap-
proved as incomplete feeder schools. Of the 55 incomplete high
schools, 45 are separate junior high schools organized as one distinct
unit offering work exclusively in grades seven, eight, and nine. The
remaining nine high schools are incomplete organizations that offer
work only through the tenth or eleventh grades.

Of the 494 complete high schools, 292 are operated by county
boards of education while 128 are maintained by boards of education
in independent school districts. The remaining complete organi-
zations are either private secondary schools or schools that are main-
tained entirely by the state.

This year, the six-year high schools (grades seven to twelve)
number 157. Last year, they numbered 202. This year, the traditional
f0ur'Year high schools (grades nine to‘twelve) number 292. Last
year, they numbered 271. The remaining 45 complete high school
Organizations represent modifications of the six-year and the tra-
ditional four-year plans.

The following table presents data regarding the various types
0f hlgh school organizations to be found in the state.

Table IV shows that there was a contlnuous growth in the num-
==== ber of high schools from 1915 to 1935. In 1935 there were 848 public
T0131 / and prlvate high schools in the state. This represents the largest
3'3] number of h1gh schools that the state has ever had. Now that we
1% have 549 h1gh schools, public and private, it is clear that there has
170 been a decrease in the number of high schools of 299 since 1935.
$3 Thls decrease has come about very largely through the merging of
/ ' .
J28.- “ small hlgh schools 1nto larger school centers.

Table VII shows the situation as regards the number of ac-
credited high schools by years since 1910. When we use the expres-
sion “accredited high school,” we think of an organization that of-
fers a program of work through the twelfth grade. High schools
that do not give work through the twelfth grade should be looked
upon as incomplete feeder schools for the regularly organized, com-
plete high schools of the district.

Accreditation of high schools is primarily a means to an end.
This end is that of stimulating growth and improvement in the
schools. Originally, accreditation of high schools came about as a
result of the need of institutions of higher learning for some satis-
factory basis for admission to college. In recent years, however, as
a result of increasing numbers of young people continuing through
elementary school into high school, the emphasis upon accreditation
as a basis for college admission has been shifted to that of better
education for all youth. The rapidly changing social, industrial, and
economic world and the marked increase in high school enrollment is
challenging the schools to provide for a diversity of needs and
capacities.

To better provide for these needs and capacities, a broader and
more varied high school program is demanded. High schools should
not only prepare some pupils for work in higher institutions, but
they should also prepare a larger proportion of the pupils for direct
entrance into business, industry, agriculture, and homemaking. It
is at once apparent that small high schools cannot possibly offer
an enriched program to meet the needs and capacities of all high
school pupils unless it is done at excessive cost, hence the justifi-
cation of requiring increased enrollment for accreditation of high
schools.
