1851 to 1876 Nathan Bishop, first superintendent of Boston Schools, recommended that establishment of a normal school to educate women to teach in Boston Public Schools, in 1851. One year later, the City Council passed an act establishing the Boston Normal School as a pretext to obtain some education for young women beyond training in grammar grades. At that time, there was only 1 other city normal school and only 7 other public institutions of that nature in the United States — 3 of which were in Massachusetts. In the same year (1852), 86 girls stepped out of their grammar school classes to embark on a glorious new profession of teaching. They began this adventure in the Adams School House on Mason Street. Two years later there was a strong demand for a public high school for girls, and, although the request was refused in that form, a number of high school studies were added to the Normal School work, and the course was lengthened from 2 to 3 years. The title of Girls ' High School was then adopted. The girls could have used the services of a few Women ' s Libbers in those times. Near the close of the Civil War the work had grown to such an extent that a training department originated in 1864 for practice teaching and the observation of school work. Some 6 years later the number of students had increased to such a degree — about 350 were enrolled — that it was deemed advisable to move to the new building which had been built on West Newton Street. Existence of the Normal School as s separate entity dated from 1872 when the School Committee decided the Normal and high schools should thereafter be kept apart, thus returning the normal school to the original condition as a separate school. The first president was Loring Lothrop. Twenty years later Dr. Larkin Dunton was named as first headmaster of the Normal School in its independent existence. Upon his death in 1899, after 27 years of leadership, he was succeeded by Wallace C. Boyden, his assistant for many years. [ANGUS J.
