Abstract
"There are no first, second, third fourth, fifth or sixth graders in the elementary schools of Appleton, Wisconsin. Children are ungraded. They are neither promoted nor failed. They do not receive report cards. Under Appleton's Continuous Progress Plan, youngsters move along as fast as their individual abilities can take them. Free from the artificial limits of grade requirements they push on beyond these arbitrary boundaries. In the process they meet the toughest competitive challenge in the world--the challenge to achieve their highest capacity.'
Thus, does Arthur Morse describe the educational philosophy of the Appleton Elementary Public Schools. This philosophy is based on the firm belief in the individual differences between children, and the schools' obligation to fulfil these needs.
