In this update to his landmark publication, William J. Reese offers a comprehensive examination of the trends, theories, and practices that have shaped America’s public schools over the last two centuries. Reese approaches this subject along two main lines of inquiry—education as a means for reforming society and ongoing reform within the schools themselves. He explores the roots of contemporary educational policies and places modern battles over curriculum, pedagogy, race relations, and academic standards in historical perspective. A thoroughly revised epilogue outlines the significant challenges to public school education within the last five years. Reese analyzes the shortcomings of “No Child Left Behind” and the continued disjuncture between actual school performance and the expectations of government officials. He discusses the intrusive role of corporations, economic models for enticing better teacher performance, the continued impact of conservatism, and the growth of home schooling and charter schools. Informed by a breadth of historical scholarship and based squarely on primary sources, this volume remains the standard text for future teachers and scholars of education.

Excerpt from Topical Course of Study for the Common Schools of the United States, Vol. 1 A Grade that includes in right proportion, the studies which make symmetrical growth, is the first essential of a successful school system. How to establish such a gradation in the largest number of our common schools is the predominant object of every conscientious educator. There are two great obstacles to making such gradation for all our common schools. First: Under existing conditions, the necessarily close adherence of teachers to d104-books. Second: The endless variety of d104-books in use. There appears to be but one way to overcome these obstacles: that is a course of study in Topics. We have had a sufficient number of successes in individual schools to indicate what the topics of each grade should be; the order in which they should be studied, and, the average proportion of time that should be given to recitations upon each. (The proportion of time to be given to the study of each topic must depend upon the pupil.) The Topical Course of Study, is a compilation from the courses of study of our most successful public schools, and the best thought of leading educators.
