Scope and Contents
The Morgan Community School in Washington, D.C. is having difficulty with its first year teachers, who lack experience. The school is also having trouble with discipline, as the educational philosophy of Antioch College, which runs the school, places emphasis on self-expression for children and is generally opposed to using physical force to control classes. Businessmen in the area are also trying to upgrade the neighborhood, but are met with opposition from some residents.
