Abstract	Describing major features of the New York Catskill Area Project in Small School Design (CAPSSD) begun in 1957, this pamphlet addresses: (1) Basic Concepts in Small School Design (flexible scheduling, multiple classes, organizational interdependency, teacher versatility, student planning, technological communications, and interagency cooperation); (2) CAPSSD Background (emphasis on the human relations aspect of cooperative development, an interrelated community-school atmosphere, and shared services); (3) CAPSSD Correspondence Courses (emphasis on reduction of schedule conflicts, academic curriculum enrichment, and extended vocational services via supervised correspondence courses serving multiple classes, educational acceleration and exploration, transfer students, repeaters, alternate year courses, and college preparation); (4) CAPSSD Multiple Classes (describes the way in which different subjects taught at different levels in the same room promote student responsibility, cooperation, better student-teacher relationships, maximum use of ability); (5) CAPSSD School Aides (use of aides to conduct teacher housekeeping duties, freeing the teacher to teach); (6) Enrichment Opportunities for Teachers and Students (college courses, summer workshops, study groups, inter-school cooperation); (7) Organization of Small Schools for Coordinated Improvement (federation vs centralization, freedom vs control, cooperating institutions, etc.).
