Communication and Teamwork in a School Attendance Setting: A Survey of the Literature on Interdisciplinary Collaboration and Consultation and the Use of These Techniques by the School Attendance Teacher, From 1950 to 1960
Abstract
During the past decade, attendance programs have undergone many changes in their underlying principles and objectives as reflected in professional literature. The thinking involved in formulating these principles is the result of a long historical evolution in American education. That the child is regarded of first importance and that society has declared by law that the child shall be cared for and educated not only for his own development but also for the welfare of society represent a "long evoked road" in this country as pointed out by Ellwood P. Cubberly in his book, Public Education in the United States. Society, consequently, has the right to compel regular school attendance for all children and must take provisions to safeguard their welfare. The procedure for society's carrying out of these responsibilities is designated under the Compulsory Education Laws of each state.
