BWEHH days formed a much smaller percentage than today. Such a school, called the Philadelphia Public Academy, was opened in Philadelphia in 1851. The movement spread, and a hundred years later it was estimated that there were six thousand of these academies. At first there were separate academies for boys and girls, but in l784 one was opened for both girls and boys. This was the beginning of coeducation-the education of boys and girls in the same school. But as the Latin grammar schools were replaced by the academies, most of the latter were to die and to be replaced by high schools, and the academies gradually became merely schools to prepare for college. The first high school opened in Boston in l82l, and still exists. It was first called the English Classical School, but three years later the name was changed to English l-ligh School. It was a school for boys. ln 1824, Wor- cester, Massachusetts, opened a high school for girlsg New York and Boston followed with similar institutions- in ISZ6. The Boston school, however, was so popular that two years later it had to close: so many parents demanded admission of their daughters that the city could not stand the extra expendi- ture. ln this same year, l826, the first coeducational high school was opened at Bridgeport, Connecticut. And now, after three hundred years all of the Latin grammar schools and most of the academies have disappeared, but there are about twenty-five thousand public high schools! C. H.
