This study of education for freedmen following Emancipation is
the definitive treatment of the subject. Employing a wide range of
sources, Robert C. Morris examines the organizations that staffed
and managed black schools in the South, with particular attention
paid to the activities of the Freedman's Bureau. He looks as well
at those who came to teach, a diverse group--white, black,
Northern, Southern--and at the curricula and textbooks they used.
While giving special emphasis to the Freedmen's Bureau school
program, Morris places the freedmen's educational movement fully in
its nineteenth-century context, relating it both to the antislavery
crusade that preceded it and to the conservative era of race
relations that followed.
More than 50% of America's schools today exist in rural settings.
This book addresses the distinctiveness of rural school leaders,
identifies issues encountered by administrators, faculty, and
students, and concludes by proposing new standards for rural
schools in general and their leaders. This book will be of special
interest to everyone involved in the operation of a rural school
district.
