Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Report of the Public Schools of the City and County of San Francisco, for the School and Fiscal Year Ending June 30, 1897 The antiquated system of promotion by final examination has finally gone out of existence as a method of promotion for this department. Such promo tion is now left in the hands of the principal and teachers who know most about the child. The method of obtaining uniformity through examinations is a vicious system, tending to encourage cramming on the part of the children and memory teaching on the part of the teachers.
