Excerpt from Report Upon, and Draught of a Code for the Support of Common Schools
In regard to the distribution of the school fund, the system prevailing in nearly all the eastern states, has been adopted. With scarce an exception in those states, it is provided, that when a county, or town, fails to raise by taxation a specified sum for the support of common schools, that such county, or town, is deprived of all part of the fund furnished by the state. This feature has been found to be of the utmost importance, and to act powerfully in behalf of the cause of education. The inhabitants of counties, or towns, who from a culpable neglect of the best interests of society, are unwilling to subject them, selves to taxation for the education of the poor, are thus te minded, that unless they will bear a portion of the burden, they will not be allowed to enjoy any portion of the fund which the patriotic munificence of the state has created for this pur pose.

Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of reports and drafts for a code of laws intended to reform public education in 19th century Maryland, influenced by contemporary progressive systems such as those of New York and Massachusetts. The author presents a detailed argument for the adoption of a free, universal, common school system in the state of Maryland, including a plan for funding and administration. The author also advocates for the professionalization of teaching, arguing that teachers should be licensed and regularly inspected by the state to ensure quality of instruction. The author supports these arguments by presenting copious data, including statistics and reports on crime rates, literacy, and the state of education in early 19th century Maryland. The author argues that the adoption of these reforms is essential to the preservation of republican government and argues for the crucial importance of education in shaping individual character and fostering democratic values. This book will be of interest to historians of education and anyone interested in the history of Maryland.
