Excerpt from High School Buildings The popularity of "High School Buildings, Volume I," which is now practically out of print, has encouraged the compiler to present this second collection of illustrations and sketch plans of American secondary schoolhouses. Even in so short a period as six years, since the earlier book appeared, there have been large changes in American secondary education and these have been reflected accurately in the design and construction of buildings. The high school has entirely outgrown its academic limitations and traditions and has broadened its influence and its curriculum. Thus, the industrial arts and household arts are no longer "basement subjects;" the natural sciences are now taught in a way to require diversified laboratories; the physical care of students has been extended to necessitate very complete gymnasia and lunch rooms; and the movement for the "wider use" of the school plant by adults has become a fixed fact which school authorities have recognized thru better auditorium and night school facilities. The high school building of the present day is far more inclusive and complicated in the number and type of activities which it serves, and the structures illustrated in the following pages bear out this statement. A departure has been made from the earlier book in the shape of text matter. This consists of articles which appeared originally in the School Board Journal and which aroused considerable attention as statements of fundamental principles in the field of high school architecture. The hearty thanks of the compiler and publishers are hereby expressed to each of the architects and engineers represented in the book.

Excerpt from Modern American School Buildings: Being a Treatise Upon, and Designs for the Construction of School Buildings The preparation of this work has been fragmentary in the extreme; the several subjects have been treated at intervals, usually wide apart, extending over a period of twenty years; they have, as a rule, been taken up at moments when the machinery of the office was practically at a standstill, or when some special problem or incident had brought forcibly to my mind the need of radical reforms.

Excerpt from Planning Secondary School Buildings In this volume, the authors have endeavored to envisage the secondary school of the future. It will not be a standardized school. American communities will continue to plan and build to meet their local requirements. The school building will be planned to make the curriculum work. It will offer expanded opportunities for learning. It will serve, not a limited number of special minds, but will advance the individual interests of the various types of youth. It will make provision for learning the social arts as well as for growing in physical health and emotional stability. It will be the educational focus of its community serving youth and adults alike. It will become a superior educational and inspirational center for all American youth. This volume has been long in preparation. During three decades many of the Engelhardt students in school administration in Teachers College, Columbia University, participated in discussions and conferences, the results of which appear in these chapters. Architects, with whom the authors have been associated as educational consultants, have raised issues and offered suggestions that have been incorporated here for school building improvement. During the five year period, 1942-1947, N. L. Engelhardt, Sr., as Associate Superintendent of Schools of New York City in charge of'the Division of Housing and Business Administration, supervised the preparation of the New York City Manual of School Planning, modification of which has been included in several chapters. Scores of individuals contributed to the development of this manual. School board members and superintendents of schools and their staffs, who have frequently made valuable contributions to the planning of school buildings in association with the authors as educational consultants, will find many of their ideas incorporated here. Several sections of Volume VII, Planning Guides for San Francisco's School Buildings, prepared by the authors as a part of the twelve volume school building survey report of that city in 1948 have also been modified or expanded for inclusion in various chapters of this book. In their surveys of the school plant of cities in all parts of the United States, the authors have discovered unusually excellent characteristics of high school buildings, recording of which here has been felt worthwhile for future planners.
