EVERYDAY LIFE OF A RURAL SCHOOL THE SOVIET PERIOD (ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE TROITSK SCHOOL OF THE BUZULUK DISTRICT OF THE ORENBURG REGION)
Abstract
The article is based on unpublished documents from the archive of the municipal general educational budgetary institution “Troitsk secondary school named after A. P. Tkachenko” and sources of personal origin. The article analyzes the daily life of a rural school in the Soviet period. The leadership and the teaching staff are considered in terms of personal emotional perception of students. The author notes that everyday school life depended on the socio-economic conditions in the state during the Soviet period. The daily hard work of headmasters, the teaching staff of the school, and the students eventually led to the fact that the Troitsk school in the 1960s became one of the leading in the region in all areas of activity. It is concluded that the achievement of high performance indicators of the Troitsk school in the Soviet period is the result of the daily work of specific people: headmasters, teachers, schoolchildren, local residents.
