Description
The document, dated May 27, 1955, from Purcellville Grade School to Supt. O. L. Emerick, details the shortcomings of Mrs. Robert Phillips and the art program at the school. The author criticizes Mrs. Phillips for not working directly with the children, lacking organization, and using a vocabulary that the students do not understand. Despite some helpful suggestions, Mrs. Phillips' overall assistance is deemed inadequate and untimely, with frequent delays and missed classes. While clay modeling in grade 5 was successful, concerns are raised about the lack of time and visits dedicated to art education, as well as the need for better facilities such as a kiln. The report suggests that Mrs. Phillips' work could be beneficial if focused on a smaller area and more effectively managed.
