FOREWORD

On June 16, 1937, the State Board of Education adopted a new
State Plan for vocational education. This Plan was then submitted
to the United States Office of Education for official approval. The
Executive Office of the Kentucky State Board of Education received
a letter of October 8, 1937, from the Assistant Commissioner for
Vocational Education stating that the Kentucky State Plan had
been officially approved.

The essential features of the State Plan, rather than the
detailed plan, are included in this bulletin. It is felt that this bulletin
should serve to supply information needed by school superintend-
ents and principals interested in administering a program of voca-
tional education. The manuscript for this bulletin has been pre-
pared by the staff of the Division of Vocational Education.
