Abstract | Introduction : civil war, pandemic, and report cards -- Rousing the attention of parents -- Unity, efficiency, and freed people -- Overworn mothers and unfed minds -- The eye of the juvenile court -- Mobility, anxiety, and merit -- The pursuit of educational dignity -- Conclusion : pulling weeds and Foucault fatigue -- Appendix I. Depiction of African American parents in American missionary, 1867-1881 -- Appendix II. Ladies home journal and the defense of teachers. "This book tells the story of American education by examining this unique element of student life. The author shows the evolution of how teachers, students, parents, and administrators responded to report cards. Report cards, he shows, were more than just a means by which a school documented each student's deportment, academic standing, and attendance. They were a tool of control, a microcosm for the changing power dynamics between teachers, parents, and students"--Provided by publisher. |
