Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book traces the history of Quaker education in Indiana from its humble beginnings to its later development and eventual transition to the state school system. It explores the Quaker belief in the importance of education for the moral and intellectual development of their children and their efforts to establish a guarded education that would protect their youth from worldly influences. The author delves into the challenges faced by early Quaker schools, including the need for qualified teachers and the scarcity of resources in the frontier environment. The book also examines the evolution of Quaker education as it moved from log cabins to more substantial buildings and the gradual expansion of the curriculum to include higher branches of learning. By examining meetinghouse records, personal papers, and official documents, the author pieces together a comprehensive account of the Quaker contribution to Indiana's educational landscape, highlighting the dedication and perseverance of Quaker educators in their mission to provide a well-rounded education for their students.
