Abstract	The U.S. Office of Education has undertaken the preparation of a series of basic studies on education in a number of Central and South American countries under the sponsorship of the Interdepartmental Committee on Cultural and Scientific Cooperation. This series of studies is part of a program to promote understanding of educational conditions in the American countries and to encourage cooperation in the field of Inter-American education. The project, a part of a Government-wide program of cultural cooperation under the auspices of the Department of State, was begun in the fall of 1943. This document is based on data gathered by the author in the Dominican Republic in 1944 and supplemented since then through documentation. Its contents include: (1) background information on this island nation and its education system; (2) descriptions of elementary education in urban, semiofficial, rural, and private, as well as medical services provided and concerns related to illiteracy and social welfare; (3) information about secondary and normal education, including admission requirements, calendar and curriculum, examinations and diplomas, teachers and teaching methods, and types of schools; and (4) descriptions of the vocational and special offerings provided at the National Conservatory of Music and Declamation, National School of Fine Arts, Dominican-United States Cultural Center, and School of Diplomacy and Consular Services, as well as agriculture and English language program support; and (5) details regarding the aims, administration, faculty, admission and fees, etc., at the University of Santo Domingo. A bibliography is included. (Contains 7 footnotes and 11 tables.) [Best copy available has been provided.] (ERIC).
