Excerpt from A History of Public Permanent Common School Funds in the United States, 1795-1905

The existence to-day of public schools in most of our states may be said to be due directly, though of course by no means solely, to vast endowment funds provided by previous genera: tions. In View of the part these funds have played in nearly every state, it is surprising that they have received so little atten tion from historians. The two most widely known histories of education in the United States, Boone's and Dexter's, give almost no information regarding them. Boone limits his discussion to about seven pages and Dexter, his to two pages.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating history of public school funding in the United States, tracing the evolution of these institutions from their humble beginnings to the establishment of state-wide systems. The author explores the diverse sources of school support that predated the rise of permanent state funds, including local appropriations, rate bills, taxes on banks and licenses, and even lotteries. The book examines how these funds were managed, how they were sometimes lost or diverted, and their lasting influence on the development of public education. Readers will learn about the struggles and triumphs that characterized the quest for free education for all Americans, and the critical role played by permanent school funds in shaping this fundamental right. The book offers a valuable historical perspective on the financial foundation of public schools, revealing the complex interplay of political, social, and economic forces that shaped the American educational landscape.
