The Bible In The
Public Schools
By Harry Clark*
Because I contact all of the
high schools of the state, many
have written asking as to the
extent of teaching of Bible in
the high schools and elementary
schools and as to the impression
such teaching has made upon
me. Superintendents testify that
it has made a difference in dis
cipline on the playground, and
even on the school busses, that
it has enabled students to under
stand references to the Bible in
the poets, orators, novelists, and
dramatists in their English Lit
erature course; and that it has
made a difference in the history
classes. Students who take the
course seem more earnest and
purposeful. Nowhere have I
found any controversies over
creed arising. The teachers
teach the facts only, and when
ever a question as to the doc
trine arises they refer the stu
dents to their parents or min
isters. It is surprising the num
her of students taking the
course who were not previously
Sunday school attendants. It
leads to the students volunteer
ing to be Sunday school teach
ers.
It is taught by the regular
public school teacher as part of
her regular load and on her reg
ular salary at Marion (five class
es), York, Clover, Chester, Flor
ence (temporarily discontinued),
Manning 1943-1944, Conway
(three classes), Union, most of
the high schools of Horry Coun
ty, in the fifth and sixth grades
at Orangeburg and the fourth
and fifth grades at Blythewood,
Clio.
The local textile mill pays for
the teacher of Bible at Ware
Shoals, Monarch, Lockhart, and
Whitmire.
A board of religious education
has been set up at Rock Hill,
Clinton, Winnsboro, Darlington,
and Hartsville. This board rais
es the money by popular sub
scription, employs its own teach
ers and determines the course of
study. All the school does is to
provide a room and give credit.
At the following places, a
minister comes to the school one
period a week and the school
gives one-fourth credit; Lexing
ton, Hemingway, Indiantown,
Silver Street, Bush River, Swan
sea (temporarily discontinued)
Sharon (in Abbeville County),
Society Hill. At Chesterfield,
three churches pay their pastors
extra to teach the Bible at the
high school.
I am familiar with the suc
cessful operation of this plan at
Chattanooga for twenty years,
and at Knoxville; it has been
taught successfully since 1933.
At both cities the juvenile
court judges state that they have
never had one of the Bible stu
dents brought into their courts.
In • the bounds of Enoree Pres-
byterial Auxiliary, in Cherokee
county, “A Child’s Story Bible,”
by Catherine F. Vos is placed in
every school in this county and
used in each class room.
In Spartanburg county, “A
Child’s Story Bible,” by Cather
ine F. Vos, was placed by the
Library Aid Association, in co
operation with the superintend
ent of education, in every class
room of the grammar schools to
be used “for their devotionals.”
Union county has a Bible
teacher in the grammar schools
of Monarch and Lockhart.
In Greenville “the schools in
the Parker district have some
religious instruction.”
Simpsonville has had Bible in
the high school for the second
year. “It has worked exceeding
ly well.” It is financed from
members of all the churches in
the town and surrounding com
munities.
