What reading level is The Organization of High Schools book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
You want a live man or woman as the pro- duct of your education, not an abstraction, nor a member of an idle cultivated " class." The very idea of a higher education in this country must be something that all can aspire to, though the time may never arrive when all shall reach it. The idea at the foundation of a classical education is an exclusive idea, — it is a class education. Now the theory of our institutions admits of no such idea as that of an idle, or useless, or privileged class. If Gr...eek, therefore, or any other study claims to enter our curriculum, it must be on the ground of some use that it subserves, material or spiritual, and only so far as it subserves such use, and just in proportion to its importance in this point of view must be its pro- portionate weight as an ingredient.
Is it not plain, therefore, that Greek and Latin as ingredients in the liberal education of literary men and philologists — and I would be the last to underrate the value of such men — is one thing ; Greek and Latin as ingredients in the equally liberal, that is, equally symmetrical, education of a vast majority of well edu- cated men, must be quite another thing ?
