Workshop Hits
Delinquency
A close liaLon of civic, educa
tional, and public welfare or
ganizations Is an effective way to
combat juvenile delinquency.
Margaret A. lieuber, professor
of elementary education at the
Pennsylvania State College, says
that such co-operation is working
effectively in the city of York,
where a workshop was organized
last Fall to study the child with
special problems.
More than 80 teachers, school
supervisors, and school superin
tendents joined members of the
police department, probation offi
cers, and the mayor of the city in
a study of juvenile delinquency
as well as other juvenile pro
blems.
The workshop, conducted by
Miss Neuber, helped to promote
an improved curricula in the De
tention School, and also brought
improved living conditions. The
school prograni includes academic
work, handicrafts, music, art,
b ;faith educition, and physical
education, and is similar to the
best special class programs in the
York schools.
The study of the Detention
Home was only one phase of the
York Workshop project which
dealt with "Education of Excep
tional Children." It was conduct
ed under the joint auspices of
Penn State and. the Department
of Public Instruction of York
city and county schools.
