Abstract: The article studies manuscript school magazines from the beginning of the twentieth century. One of the aims of such publications was considered to be the formation of a worldview. A brief sketch is given of the development of ideas of a worldview in Russia in the nineteenth century, and a survey of those practices whereby school magazines may have furthered its formation. The social situation of the publication of a school magazine is examined: the struggle of the activists with the passive masses, censorship and self-censorship. The conclusion attempts to extend our understanding of the history of the beginning of the twentieth century, taking into account the data obtained.

Keywords: worldview, school magazines, history of ideas.
