A typical American school in a small Ohio town. The scene is early morning and the janitor is opening the school. The principal arrives and the children come from their homes through a fresh fall of snow. School opens with prayer and we are shown classes in reading, arithmetic, music, science, art, etc. A play is shown to teachers and parents in the evening. The film is imaginative and achieves a friendly, authentic atmosphere. (1950 NYU Film Library catalog)
