Abstract

This study of the out-of-school youth in rural Iowa, constitutes one part or phase of the educational investigation being carried on by the Iowa State Planning Board. This board, whose current activities are being financed by the Federal government, was appointed by the Governor of Iowa. Its activities up to date have been entirely of an investigational or fact-finding character. Investigations are being conducted in several fields, one of which is education. This survey of out-of-school rural youth is but one of the several projects of the education investigation. The data secured have been organized and compiled into 36 tables, which are attached. Preceding these tables are a brief summary of the findings, a summary of conclusions and a few rather enlightening observations wade by our field investigators.
