Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Virginia, for the Use of Schools In the preparation of this volume for the use of schools, I have been actuated by an earnest desire to place before her youth a faithful record of the past history of the old Mother of States and Statesmen, a record so full of honor that her children may well be proud of it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Primary Education and the Race Problem: An Address to the People of Virginia The inauguration of the public free school system in Virginia dates from the adoption of the Underwood Constitution by vote of the people on July 6th, 1869. Article 8, Section 3 provides: "The general assembly shall provide by law at its first session under this Constitution, a uniform system of public free schools and for its gradual, equal and full introduction into all the Counties of the State by the year 1876, or as much earlier as practicable." Coming as it did upon the heels of a great war in which was involved the question of liberating four millions of people for whom it was claimed, by the victorious side, equal civil and political rights, there is left no room to doubt that it was the purpose of the framers of the Constitution that every child in the State should have equal opportunity to get an education. Not willing to leave the matter of developing this system to the discretion of the legislature, the framers made it mandatory that the law inaugurating the system should be passed at the first session held under the Constitution. Nor willing to rest here, they evidently mistrusting the legislature (with how much reason its subsequent acts will show), limited the time for complete inauguration and establishment in all the Counties of the State to the year 1876. Article 8, Section 8 provides: "The general assembly shall apply the annual interest on the literary fund, the capitation tax provided for by this Constitution for public free school purposes and an annual tax upon the property of the State of not less than one mill nor more than five mills on the dollar, for the equal benefit of all the people of the State, the number of children between the ages of five and twenty-one years in each public free school district being the basis of such division. Provision shall be made to supply children attending the public free schools with the necessary text-books in cases where the parent or guardian, by reason of poverty, is unable to furnish them. Each County and public free school district may raise additional sums by a tax on property for the support of public free schools. All unexpended sums of any one year in any public free school district shall go into the general school fund for re-division the next year.

This book was released on 2018-02-15 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Beginnings of Public Education in Virginia, 1776-1860: Study of Secondary Schools in Relation to the State Literary Fund Before 1776 in Virginia there were very few ideals and there was very little legislation in regard to educational matters. But from'what legislation there was had come a well equipped and well endowed col lege, and What ideals there were led-to a pretty thorough culture among those who were considered as having any concern with culture, to employ the language of that time. For more than a century and a half, Virginia had been a tobacco colony, drawing to itself many people of good tradi tions and sound heads, who by the year 1776, had organized a Little England in a new world. From the founding in 1607 there had been a great deal to do, severe work of many kinds, and although the Rights of Man had not been greatly bruited in the process, it is unquestionable that the principle was never much obscured, as the times were. There was opportunity, and many a man who could not 'trace himself far back in the annals of England, ' was able to establish himself on the soil of the colony, and 'found his family' in the conventional way. The business of the colony had to be performed by many persons, and participation in it was fair training for the Wits.* The Church was there, and if you had a mind for Latin and Greek and the Mathematics, you need not go denied. The Law was a disciplinarian in many forms, as is plain enough from the records preserved. England was close to every man, the exam ple of England was before men's eyes, the machinery was moved from England, too much so the people came to believe in the end.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Education in Southwestern Virginia, 1890-91 On every side the traveler now sees the evidence of the advancing material prosperity and power of the new Dominion of Virginia. Within the past twenty-five years two great lines of railroad have spanned the 500 miles between the sea and the Ohio Valley, while two systems of almost equal importance bind it to the South and South west, and the Baltimore and Ohio, the great highland railroad of the civil war, is still expanding its facilities. Hampton Roads is rapidly becoming the Atlantic harbor that one marvels it has not been from the beginning. At the mouth of the James River is Springing up a new city, the rival of busy Norfolk, across its broad and beautiful bay. Richmond is becoming a notable center of the manufacturing industry she resisted for years In the interest of a narrow industrial and polit ical theory. Southside Virginia is being wrought up into vast garden, orchard, and tobacco plantations, with old Villages rising into new cities. Alexandria. Is bestirring herself to revive her ancient days of commercial importance, and can hardly fail to be an important manu l acturin g annex Of the United States capital. The Potomac is already regarded as one Of the two noblest pleasure waterways in the eastern section of the Union, only rivaled by the Hudson. The quiet valley of the Shenandoah has not only surpassed its old-time agricultural fame, but is now making loud proclamation of new mining and manu factures more startling than the stories of its natural bridge, caverns, and mountain wonders in the geographies of our youth.
