History of The Mairyiauci State Noirmatll Sehooi ARYLAND was the seventh State to make any move toward the education ol trained teachers. The Act of I865. providing a uniform System of Free Public Schools for the State of Maryland. made it one of the duties of the State Board cf Education to organize a State Normal School for the instruction and practice of teachers of Public Schools in the Science et Edttcation and the Art of Teaching and Mode of Governing Schools. There was great delay in opening the school due to the difficulty of procuring rooms. However. Dr. M. A. Newell was elected principal of the school and he after having visited institutions for the education of teachers in Pennsylvania. New Jersey. Massachusetts and Connecticut. devised a system- atic plan of operation. a complete curriculum for Normal School and the model and experimental school. The school was not opened until the l5th of January. l866. lt was located in Red Mans Hall. Paca Street near Fayette lincidentally one of the noisiest sections of the cityl. Although the school had opened with only eleven students. the number steadily increased until at the close of the season. June 8. there were fortyaeight names on the roll. There was good reason to believe that the school would reopen in September with largely increased numbers. At this time, each county was entitled to send to the Normal School. two students for each member of the House of Delegates and one for each Senator. thus making a total of I8-4 county students. Persons desiring to enter the school were instructed to apply to the School Commissioners of his or her county. Female applicants had to be sixteen years of age: male applicants, seventeen: and had to give evidence of good moral character and fair elementary education. If the quota for that county was nlled. the candidate had to apply to the State Superintendent. accompanying his application with a recommendation from his County Board of School Commissioners. Those candidates who pledged themselves to teach in the Public Schools of Maryland had nothing to pay for tuition or books. A limited number of students would be received without such a pledge on paying 325 a session and furnishing their own books. Boarding was to be had in the city at from four to five dollars a week. There were both Academic and Professional courses of instruction. The junior class. in preparation for work that was to follow, was given a review of all elementary subjects-spelling. reading. writing. arithmetic. geography. algebra. rhetoric. English literature. and natural science. Special attention was given to drawing. vocal music. calisthenics and to Introduction into Primary and Grammar Cmrades. The subjects embraced in the Professional courses were History of Pub- lic Schools and Popular Education. the Philosophv of Mind. Education as a Positive Science. Teaching as an Art, Methods of Instruction. Classification. Government and Discipline. the School Law of Maryland in relation to ?izens. teachers and school officers. duties and qualification of Public School eachers. Fil' I een
