Description: A report on schools in Sacramento between the years 1917 and 1919. It includes Statistics on the city of Sacramento, school enrollment and attendance, high school graduation rates, and building and maintenance costs. The text of the report begins with a note on the Great War and hopes for a peacetime shift to a more liberalized society. The War’s presence remains throughout the book in images of victory gardens, planted and maintained by schoolchildren, work done for the Red Cross, and descriptions of changes it made to the United States economy. Photos throughout the book depict the work done by students in practical education classes such as tinsmithing using recycled tin cans.
