Perren Baker and Alberta's School District Reorganization
Wilson, L. J.
Canadian Journal of Education, 2, 3, 25-36, 77
The promotion of educational reform by Perren Baker and the members of his Education Department in Alberta, Canada, are discussed. The important task he undertook, the upgrading of the rural educational system of Alberta, was not immediately successful but his efforts paved the way for William Aberhart, who was able to reorganize rural school districts in 1935.
