The New Deal, drawing heavily on the experiences of its leaders, reflected the ideas, and was influenced by the programs, that FDR and most of his original associates had absorbed in their political youths early in the progressive era; had absorbed while serving in the Woodrow Wilson administration; and had absorbed holding other offices in the 1920s.\n\nIn the United States of America, the Progressive Era was a period of reform which lasted from the 1890s through the 1920s, although some experts use the narrower time frame of 1900 to 1917. The reformers advocated the Efficiency Movement. Progressives assumed that anything old was encrusted with inefficient and useless practices. A scientific study of the problem would enable experts to discover the "one best solution." Progressives strongly opposed waste and corruption, and tended to assume that opponents were motivated by ignorance or corruption.

Jefferson changed the face of the presidency.  In the study of how our government started he was a key factor.  Jefferson thought the government was too powerful at the time he took office.  Jefferson worked to change it with new economic policies.  He reduced government spending through budget management. (a lesson we should take from him now)  He also decreased the size of the government by having government take less of a role in the lives of everyday people like us.  \n\nThis is important for 8th graders to know because there are many things you can learn from Jefferson.  In only four or five years you will be voting in the same elections adults are voting in.   We want you to be informed voters.  We want you to know how to listen for what candidates stand for, decide if you agree with them and make your own choices.  That is why we study any past presidents,  it is to make you consider, is this someone you would have voted for?  If not what would you vote for?  Jefferson and Adams differed in many ways.  Jefferson and Hamilton probably differed even more.  Who would you have voted for?  Look at candidates we have now.  They too have different opinions.  Can you take a position and stand for it?  Can you make an informed decision and vote for the person that will help our country the most?  Start thinking about it now because you will be standing in that voting booth all alone some day and you will have to make the decisions.

Coolidge was probably the quietest President we ever had having become president at the death of Warren G. Harding he went on to be elected in 1924 to his own term.
