At the time of this report, the Western States Small Schools Project (WSSSP) had completed one full year of operation (1962-63) in the schools of Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, Nevada, and Utah. Major WSSSP objectives are identified as: developing ungraded programs (K-12); developing appropriate uses of programmed materials; providing teacher preparation for small schools and rural living; and developing approaches to school board members' orientation to the education problems of rural America. Using a case study approach to the evaluation of the total project, data collected at the beginning of the project and again at its completion are to be analyzed in terms of observable changes resulting from project activities in each participating school. Among the activities cited in this Colorado report are: advisory meetings; regional workshops; a superintendent's conference; a scheduling conference; an amplified telephone project; and an annual summer workshop. Also, this report contains the names of administrators, teachers, and a short description of WSSSP proposals. Reports are presented for project activities which have progressed far enough to have some significant findings re: the utilization of programmed type materials in English; a general music class; independent study in science; individualized instruction in mathematics and language; and the telephone method of teaching in a non-graded school.
