A century-long record of a pioneering teacher’s class and its enduring ties.

This nonfiction volume documents the life of the first class at the Massachusetts State Normal School, founded in Lexington in 1839, through meetings, memoriams, and commemorations. It collects names, dates, speeches, and reflections that trace the group’s evolution from students to mentors, celebrating dedication to education and the communities they shaped.

The book gathers meeting notes, member rosters, addresses, and memorial passages that illuminate the bond between teachers and their pupils across generations. It reads like a living history of a classroom’s influence on a wider educational mission in New England.

Speeches, greetings, and reminiscences that reveal personal and professional ties
Appendices and necrology that reflect the long arc of the class’s influence
