Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Early History of the Cleveland Public Schools Though there are yet among us those to whom the history of the Public Schools of Cleveland is a matter of personal experience or observation, the exact sequence and relation of events are sometimes recovered with no little difficulty. Had we an unbroken official record of the Schools, there would be still wanting such a narration as would enable us to comprehend the spirit and scope of purpose which have prevailed in the successive stages of progress which have been made, or the causes which have led to occasional retrogression. But, unfortunately, we have no such records from which we may construct even a skeleton of the School history of the last half-century; and, to supply some of the missing parts, we are compelled to rely upon the memory of the older citizens who had, in any way, been connected with the management of the Schools. To prevent the entire loss of interesting and valuable historical material, therefore, it seemed prudent to the Board of Education to put into permanent form a record of the past, from which some estimate may be made of advancement in the present and of progress in the future. The historian, Mr. Andrew Freese, was selected by the "Centennial Committee" of the Board of Education because of his peculiar fitness for the task. He had been employed in the Public Schools of Cleveland on the completion of the first building erected under its authority. In 1846, he was appointed to the Principalship of the High School, just then established; and subsequently, when the Superintendency was created, he was at once chosen for the position. Mr. Freese had thus been connected with the Schools in various capacities for about twenty years - half the entire time covered by the history to which the attention of the reader is invited.
