"The Problem Child in School" is an insightful exploration into the intersection of education, social work, and child psychology. This work examines the multifaceted causes behind student maladjustment and the proactive measures taken to address them within the school system. The text focuses heavily on the role of the visiting teacher, a precursor to the modern school social worker, who bridges the gap between the classroom and the home environment to support struggling students.

Through a series of detailed narratives and case studies, the work illustrates how behavioral issues, academic failure, and social difficulties are frequently rooted in complex domestic or psychological factors. By documenting various interventions, Mary B. Sayles demonstrates how individual attention and environmental changes can foster more positive outcomes for children once labeled as "difficult." This volume serves as a foundational text for understanding the early 20th-century child guidance movement and the evolution of student support services.

For educators, psychologists, and historians of social work, "The Problem Child in School" offers a compelling look at the historical roots of holistic education. It emphasizes the importance of viewing a child's behavior not merely as a disciplinary matter, but as a communication of deeper needs and challenges.
