Book Description
In 1896, the School Reform Law provided the reorganization of the New York City Board of Education & the creation of the first public high schools in the city. In September of 1897, the Boys' High School, later named DeWitt Clinton High School, & the Girls' High School, later named Wadleigh High School, were opened in Manhattan. The third school to open was the North Side, in what is now the Bronx. There were both male & female students so it was named the Mixed High School &, soon after, the Peter Cooper High School. It was, in 1901, renamed Morris High School in honor of Gouverneur Morris, the penman of the Constitution. The study is chronological. It has a brief historical background of the New York public school system between 1805 & 1896, including the reform movement led by Nicholas Murray Butler. This is followed by an explanation of the changes in the Board of Ed between 1896 & 1904 including City Superintendent William Maxwell's contributions. The major portion of the book is the history of Morris High School from 1897, when it opened, to 1904, when its new building was dedicated. The Morris High School building was to be the master work of its architect, C.B.J. Snyder.

Book Description
Excerpt from The New York Public School, Being a History of Free Education, in the City of New York The celebration of the centenary of the inauguration (on February 19, 1805) of the movement for free public schools in this city was suggested to the Board of Education in the spring of 1904, and, later, the preparation of a history of public education in New York. The Board unanimously approved both suggestions, and granted me a leave of absence for the purpose of writing this book. Although the time has been, of necessity, limited, no reasonable pains have been spared to secure accuracy. From the literary point of view this work makes no claim upon the reader. It is put forth as a fairly complete chronicle - a chronicle rather than a philosophic his tory of educational events in the city during the past one hundred years. To fill out the record, a preliminary chapter, relating to schools on Manhattan Island prior to 1805, precedes the his tory of the century now closing; and accounts of early schools in other parts of the city are also given.
