Public schools transformed literacy and citizenship through longer terms, graded courses, and trained teachers.
This book traces how graded schools and professionally educated teachers expanded enrollment, lengthened the school year, and shaped what students learn. It ties together policy moves, classroom practice, and the growing emphasis on reading, writing, arithmetic, and civic knowledge in the United States.
