1635-1935 The year 1935 is a memorable one in the history of public school secondary educa- tion. No high school publication would be complete without a few words concerning the development of education in the United States. hfany changes have come about since the Boston Latin School was established in 1635. The curriculum was set by the college and grammar schools were organized in the Massachusetts Law of 1647 which ordered that VVhen any town shall increase to the number of 100 families or householders, they shall set up a grammar school, the master thereof being able to instruct youth so far as they shall be fitted for the uni- versityf, Soon there were many schools. Academies were popular during the last half of the eighteenth century, New York and Massachusetts having the best both in number and quality. The high school movement began in 1821 when a new type of school was estab- lished. Three years later it was called the English High School. The number of schools did not increase rapidly, as tradition had coupled secondary education with the upper class of people. After a time people realized that education was needed for all people. By 1890 the high school was accepted as an integral part of the state common school system supported through taxes. Now, in 1935, an opportunity is given to every boy and girl to develop their talents. Beautiful buildings and surroundings have replaced. the old type schools. Modern cur- ricula and teaching methods have taken the place of the teaching of the 3R7s. The old bundle of birch switches has been laid aside for guidance, kindness and sympathetic understanding.
