WARTIME SCHOOLS - GERARD GIORDANO KARTONIERT (TB)

The politically conservative educators of World War II dramatically and rapidly altered
policies  programs  schedules  learning materials  classroom activities  and the content of
academic courses. They motivated students to salvage materials  sell war stamps  grow crops 
learn about wartime issues  and take pride in patriotism. They prepared millions of people for
the armed services and the defense industries. These accomplishments were possible because the
educators were supported by an unprecedented alliance that included teachers  school
administrators  industrialists  military personnel  government leaders  and the President
himself. After the war  conservative educators continued to portray themselves as home-front
warriors waging a life-threatening battle against enduring global dangers. A terrified public
accepted this depiction and continued to back them for decades.
