PUBLIC SCHOOL company history timeline

1840

By 1840, half the population (nearly 4 million at that time) was between the ages of five and fifteen and showed enrollment in some type of school year.

1852

From there, the first law regarding compulsory attendance was passed in 1852.

1908

Brooklyn Daily Eagle, June 10, 1908.

1909

Brooklyn Daily Eagle, February 1, 1909.

1918

In a book called, Principles of Secondary Education, Alexander Inglis makes a point of breaking down the actual purpose of what was considered “modern schools” back in 1918.

1922

Brooklyn Daily Eagle, June 5, 1922.

1935

Brooklyn Daily Eagle, April 2, 1935.

Parents spent much of 1935-36 lobbying to protest delays in the destruction and rebuilding of a new annex.

1938

Brooklyn Daily Eagle, August 28, 1938.

2001

In 2001, more “Federal Reform” was passed with the No Child Left Behind Act, which was then replaced by the Every Student Succeeds Act when President Obama began rewarding states that adopted the Common Core standards with federal grant money.

2009

Since that time in 2009, many states have exercised common sense and thrown out Common Core.

2014

With any luck I'll be invited to attend a tour myself and report back on their success. It's hard to look at P.S. 131 in 2014 and imagine the structure that used to exist behind C.B.J. Synder's original building.
