About this title

Synopsis

This book explores how secondary education in the United States transformed throughout the late 19th into the early 20th century. The author details the evolution of schools from exclusive institutions preparing the sons of wealthy families for college into public facilities accessible to all students. By highlighting the transition of secondary education from a social privilege to a community necessity, the author illustrates the changing values of American society, the impact of industrialization, and the growing concern for equity in the public education system. Their research provides insightful perspectives on the historical context shaping today's high school structure and its enduring significance in ensuring equal opportunities for students.
