Excerpt from Early History of the Cleveland Public Schools Though there are yet among us those to whom the history of the Public Schools of Cleveland is a matter of personal experience or observation, the exact sequence and relation of events are sometimes recovered with no little difficulty. Had we an unbroken official record of the Schools, there would be still wanting such a narration as would enable us to comprehend the spirit and scope of purpose which have prevailed in the successive stages of progress which have been made, or the causes which have led to occasional retrogression. But, unfortunately, we have no such records from which we may construct even a skeleton of the School history of the last half-century; and, to supply some of the missing parts, we are compelled to rely upon the memory of the older citizens who had, in any way, been connected with the management of the Schools. To prevent the entire loss of interesting and valuable historical material, therefore, it seemed prudent to the Board of Education to put into permanent form a record of the past, from which some estimate may be made of advancement in the present and of progress in the future.
