One-Room Schools of the Middle West: an Illustrated History by: Fuller, Wayne E.

One-Room Schools of the Middle West: an Illustrated History
by: Fuller, Wayne E.

Hardcover. Lawrence KS, University Press of Kansas, 1st, 1994, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Hardcover with a bright dust jacket. B&w vintage photos throughout. The Midwest's one-room schools were, Fuller observes, the most democratic in the nation. Located in small, independent school districts, these schools virtually wiped out illiteracy, promoted democratic values, and opened up new vistas beyond the borders of their students' lives. Entire communities, Fuller shows, revolved around these schools. At various times they were used as churches, polling places, sites of political caucuses, and meeting halls for local organizations. But as America urbanized and the movement to consolidate took hold in rural counties, these little centers of learning were left at the margins of the educational system. Some were torn down, some left to weather away, some sold at auction, and still others transformed into museums.
