Centrala Polskich Szkół Dokształcających w Ameryce Północnej (1915-1983)

Abstrakt

The author presents the supplementary schools existing in the United States. The schools were , particulary active and numerous in the inter-war period; they closely cooperated with the Polish Government then. In 1966 there were 300 supplementary schools which served around 30 thousand people. At the beginning of the 1980s there were only 120 schools for 1700 people left. Contrarily to other ethnic groups in the United States, there are no bilingual schools for the Polish-Americans there.
