In founding the
colony of Pennsylvania, William Penn declared that wisdom and virtue
"must be carefully propagated by a virtuous education of youth."
To make this precept more emphatic, he provided in his frame of Government
for the infant commonwealth that the Governor and Council should
"erect and order public schools." The wise example of the
founder was followed by the heroes of the Revolution, in framing the
Constitution of 1776, with a requirement that "a school or schools
shall be established in each county." The Constitution of 1790 went
still further by declaring that the Legislature might provide for the
establishment of schools throughout the State "in such manner that
the poor may be taught gratis." Notwithstanding those noble
declarations, little progress toward the schooling of the masses was
effected until a comparatively recent period. Generous endowments were
made by the State to colleges and academies, but the idea of "common
schools," open alike to rich and poor, and supported at the public
expense by a system of equal taxation, was slow in winning the approval of
property owners. "Pay schools," in which the children were
trained for a moderate compensation, were common, however, almost every
district having one or more, according to its population. The primary
schools in Erie County, up to 1834, were all of this character.
As early as 1821, Gov. Heister, in his message to the Legislature declared
it to be "an imperative duty to introduce and support a liberal
system of education, connected with some general religious
instruction." Gov. Shultze's message to the Legislature of 1827
contained this passage: "Among the injunctions of the Constitution,
there is none more interesting than that which enjoins it as a duty on the
Legislature to provide for the education of the poor throughout the
commonwealth." In 1828, the same executive stated in his annual
message that he could not forbear from "again calling attention to
the subject of public education. To devise means for the establishment of
a fund and the adoption of a plan by which the blessings of the more
necessary branches of education should be conferred on every family within
our borders would be every way worthy the Legislature of
Pennsylvania."
The first practical step in the direction of a common school system for
Pennsylvania was taken when George Wolf, of Northampton County, was
elected Governor in 1829. The question of public schools entered largely
into the canvass preceding his election, and the Democratic leaders were
generally pledged to some sort of a measure for the purpose. In a speech
delivered during the campaign, James Buchanan said: "If ever the
passion of envy could be excused in a man ambitious of true glory, he
might almost be justified in envying the fame of that favored individual,
whoever he may be, whom Providence intends to make the instrument in
establishing common schools throughout the commonwealth." Gov. Wolf's
inaugural address took strong ground in favor of the education of the
masses, and the Legislature of 1830, in accordance with his
recommendation, set apart a sum of money to be placed at interest and used
at some future period in establishing a common school system. This did not
satisfy the Governor, who was one of the most progressive men of his day,
and be continued to urge the free school idea until the passage of the act
of 1834-35. The original law made it optional with each township, ward and
borough to adopt the system.
Strange as it may seem, there was violent opposition to the measure in
some parts of the State. The persons interested in colleges, academies and
pay schools objected to it through fear of a loss to their revenues; the
wealthy and the snobbish disliked it because they did not want their
children to mix with the "vulgar herd;" the penurious dreaded an
increase of taxation; and a hundred objections were urged that seem too
absurd now for any reasonable person ever to have believed. At the ensuing
session, a motion for the repeal of the law was offered by John Strohm, of
Lancaster County, and eloquently opposed by Thaddeus Stevens, then a
Representative from Adams. Mr. Stevens closed his remarks with this
thrilling sentence: "If the opponent of education were my most
intimate personal and political friend, and the free school candidate my
most obnoxious enemy, I should deem it my duty as a patriot, at this
moment of our intellectual crisis, to forget all other considerations, and
I should place myself unhesitatingly and cordially in the ranks of him
whose banner streams in light." Col. Forney used to relate that after
this speech, Mr. Stevens visited the Executive Chamber by invitation of
Gov. Wolf, when the latter "threw his arms about his neck, and, with
tearful eyes and broken voice, thanked him for the great service he had
rendered to our common humanity." The bill was saved, but was
improved and made more acceptable during the administration of Gov. Ritner,
who succeeded Gov. Wolf. Probably no one man did more effective service in
building up the system than Thomas H. Burrowes, who was Gov. Ritner's
Secretary of State, and, as such, official head of the School Department.
During Ritner's administration the annual State appropriation was
increased from $75,000 to $400,000, and the number of schools to 5,000.
The act passed in 1849 made the adoption of the system obligatory through
out the State. The law of 1854, providing for County Superintendents,
teachers' examinations, and other important measures, was prepared by Hon.
H. L. Dieffenbach, of Clinton County, acting head of the School
Department, with the assistance of Gov. Bigler and Secretary of State
Charles A. Black. After that came the normal school act of 1857, making a
complete system, and giving to Pennsylvania the proud and conceded
pre-eminence of having the best school laws in the Union.
The County Schools
For several years after the county was established, the population was too
small and sparse to maintain more than a few schools. These were wholly
private, parents paying the teachers a stated sum for each of their
children who attended. The first school of which a record can be found was
established in Waterford about 1800; at Manchester in Fairview Township in
1804; at Erie in 1806; at Union in 1820, and at Phillipsville in 1828.
Others were opened at an early date, on Federal Hill, within the present
limits of Erie; on the Joseph Eagley place in Springfield; and, through
the agency of Charles J. Reed, in Mill Creek Township. The earliest school
buildings in Waterford and Erie were erected in 1800 and 1806
respectively, being built by the free contributions of the citizens. By
1812, almost every village and township had one or more "pay"
schools. These were increased by degrees so that when the law of 1834 went
into force it found every district fairly well supplied with educational
facilities. The school buildings were generally put up by calling together
the citizens interested, on a certain day, with their teams and wagons, to
raise and cover the structure. They were built of logs in almost every
instance, and were usually very poorly arranged and ventilated. The
"schoolmasters," as they were called, were plain men, who made
no pretension to a knowledge of more than the rudimentary branches. They
believed in the use of the rod, and applied it with vigor for every small
offense. A ready knowledge of "the three R's" -- Readin', 'Ritin
and 'Rithmetic -- was all that was supposed to be necessary for the
average boy and girl.
School Books, etc.
The school books most universally used in the beginning were Webster's and
Byerly's Spelling Books, the English Reader and Daboll's Arithmetic. The
teacher was expected to be a good penman and to be able to "set the
copy" himself. There were no rules for writing, and the pupil was
obliged to follow, as nearly as he could, the handwriting of the master. A
better class of books came in at a later date, including Cobb's Spelling
Book, Goodrich's, Parley's and Mitchell's Geographies; Parley's and
Mitchell's Histories; the First, Second and Third Readers; Smith's
Grammar, and Davies' Arithmetics. If the children of this generation wish
to know something of the hardships through which their parents struggled
to get a little book knowledge, let them hunt up some of the old works
here named, if they can be found, and compare them with the ones now in
use. Cobb's Spelling Book was introduced into this section in 1827. The
copyright for one-half of the State of Pennsylvania was purchased by
Joseph M. Sterrett and Oliver Spafford, who published the work in Erie for
many years, realizing a snug profit from the enterprise. Mr. Spafford at
one time also published the "English Reader."
Erie County was one of the foremost in taking advantage of the common
school law. The act required that the directors of each county should meet
annually in convention with the County Commissioners and determine the
amount of school tax to be raised. The first convention for this purpose
was held in the court house soon after the passage of the law, and was
attended by representatives from every district in the county. A levy of
$2,000 was voted unanimously, and the people were requested to decide by
vote whether an additional sum should be raised in the several districts.
The directors in each district were authorized to levy a tax in addition
to the county appropriation, but it would seem from the above action that
they had a delicacy about exercising their power without consulting the
tax-payers -- an example that is commended to the imitation of some
officials of the present day. An extra tax of $1,000 was voted in Erie,
the active spirits in having it done being E. Babbitt, George Kellogg, Dr.
William Johns and William Kelly. In a few years, the law was changed so as
to leave the amount of tax to be designated by the directors of the
several districts, in which shape it still remains.
The first convention for the choice of a County Superintendent was held in
Erie in 1854. William H. Armstrong was elected at a salary of $800 per
year.
Spelling Schools
The spelling school was a once popular institution, in both town and
country. As usually conducted, the pupils of the district school would
assemble on some winter evening and choose two of the best spellers for
leaders, who, in turn, would select from six to a dozen others on each
side. These would range themselves in standing rows on opposite sides of
the building, and the teacher or some other competent person would give
out the words to be spelled from a book that had been agreed upon. The
pupil who missed a word had to take his seat immediately, and the exercise
continued until but one of the contestants remained upon the floor, who
became the hero of the occasion. Sometimes half a dozen spelling matches
would occur in an evening. Two neighboring schools would often meet in
rivalry, and the event would be the talk of the neighborhood for a month
or so. In many districts, the spelling school was the regular winter
amusement, old and young attending, and all looking forward to the evening
with an interest that cannot be described. The spelling match was not the
only kind of a match that grew out of this custom, as many worthy fathers
and mothers will testify.
Academies, etc.
While the State was slow in adopting the common school system, the
liberality she displayed in founding colleges and academies proves that it
was wholly through doubts of its policy, and not because good educational
facilities were not appreciated. Provision was made at an early day for an
academy in each county, and generous appropriations were made to colleges
and universities. The Waterford and Erie Academies were incorporated in
1811 and 1817 respectively, the buildings for both being completed in
1822. A bountiful donation of lands was given by the State for the support
of each institution and both are still in operation.
The Erie Female Seminary was incorporated in 1838 and went into operation
soon after, receiving an annual appropriation of $300 from the Legislature
for several years. It kept up till about 1866, but never had any buildings
of its own. The last location of the seminary was in the Hamot House, on
the bank of the bay, at the foot of State street.
Academies were established at West Springfield in 1853, at East
Springfield in 1856, at Girard in 1859, and at North Springfield in 1866,
which were conducted for some years with a certain degree of success. All
except the one at North Springfield have become merged into the common
school system.
The Normal School at Edinboro is the only State educational institution in
the county. It was founded as an Academy in 1857, and re-organized as a
State Normal School in 1861. This school has been quite prosperous for the
past ten years, and has the promise of a long and useful career.
The Lake Shore Seminary was established at North East in 1870. Liberal
contributions were secured and a fine building was erected. The
institution became involved, and the property was bought in at Sheriff's
sale by the principal creditor. The latter, in 1880, sold the building to
the Redemptionist Fathers, of Annapolis, Md., who re-dedicated it as St.
Mary's College. It is conducted as a preparatory school for young men
intending to enter the Catholic priesthood.
Fuller particulars of the above institutions will be found in the sketches
of their respective localities.
General Remarks
To return to the common schools, they are under the control of directors,
who are elected by the people of the several districts at the spring
elections, a certain number going out each year. Each city, borough and
township is a district by itself. There are three independent districts in
the county, viz: Belle Valley, Elk Creek, and Franklin, and Lake Pleasant.
The State grants every district an annual appropriation, which is
apportioned according to the number of pupils. Teachers are employed by
the directors of the district in which they are to serve, but most have
passed an examination and received a certificate of competency from the
County Superintendent. The latter holds an annual examination in each
district, and is expected to visit every school in the county once in each
year. The following is a list of the County Superintendents since the
adoption of the law creating the office:
William H. Armstrong, Wattsburg, 1854 to 1860. L. W. Savage, Springfield,
1860 to 1863. D. P. Ensign, Erie, served six months in 1863, and resigned.
Julius Degmier, Erie, appointed for six months, and then elected to serve
until 1866. L. T. Fisk, Girard, 1866 to 1869. C. C. Taylor, Elk Creek,
1869 to 1878. Charles Twining, Union, 1878 to 1884. Salary, $1,500.
The office of City Superintendent of the Schools of Erie has been filled
since 1867 by H. S. Jones, whose salary in 1883 was $2,200. V. G. Curtis,
City Superintendent of Corry, receives a salary of $1,600.
