| Abstract | The purpose of this study was to ascertain attitudes toward the current English programs in Boston high schools. A survey was made of persons chosen from six selected groups: recent high school graduates, English faculty and advisers, educators in nonteaching fields, university and college English teachers, management personnel of companies that employ a large number of high school graduates, and parents of high school students. Data were collected on attitudes toward the values and purposes in the study of English today, the present structure and format of English course offerings, trends in teaching English, and the adequacy of preparation for post-secondary education or for employment. Based on the data collected, comparative studies were made among the groups and were viewed in perspective with research and literature on current programs along with a consideration of the development of English curricula through the years. The data collected were used to aid in determining possible strengths and weaknesses of present English programs and in recommending guidelines to assist in the evaluation and improvement of English curricula.
