Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the development of education in Washington D.C. from 1850-1857. It begins by describing the state of education in the city at the time, with only a small percentage of children attending school and a severe lack of facilities. The author then discusses the efforts of the Columbian Teachers Association to improve the situation. They conducted a census to determine the number of children not attending school, which revealed that almost half of the school-age children in the city were not receiving an education. The author argues that this lack of education was a major problem for the city, as it led to high levels of crime and poverty. The book concludes by describing the progress that was made in improving education in the city, thanks to the efforts of the Columbian Teachers Association and other concerned citizens. This book provides a valuable historical perspective on the development of education in Washington D.C. and highlights the importance of providing all children with access to quality education.
