Special Testimonies on Church Schools

Location of Our Schools

No pains should be spared to select places for our schools where the moral atmosphere will be [as] healthful as possible; for the influences that prevail will leave a deep impress on young and forming characters. For this reason a retired locality is best. The great cities, the centers of business and learning, may seem to present some advantages; but these advantages are outweighed by other considerations.—Special Testimonies on Education, 43.

In connection with our schools, there should be, as far as possible, large flower gardens, and extensive lands for cultivation.—Special Testimonies on Education, 60. PH081 33.2
