NOTES:

HISTORICAL SKETCH

In the first half of the nineteenth century, pioneers in Indiana had very limited access to schooling. The 1816 state constitution stated the intention of the state government to provide by law "as soon as circumstances will permit . . . a general system of education, ascending in a regular gradation, from township schools to a state university, wherein tuition shall be gratis, and equally open to all" (Article IX, Section 2).

Meanwhile, church and Sunday school were places where children learned to read and write. Books were scarce, so the Bible was often the only book a child in Indiana at that time ever read. Common schools, similar to today's public schools, were locally created and funded by the town or township in which they were located. They were not free, nor were they open to all. There were no state standards and no schools for training teachers.

The 1840 federal census revealed that less than one-quarter of Indiana children between the ages of five and fifteen attended school. This was a call to action for education reformers.

Caleb Mills (1806–1879), a New England Presbyterian missionary who arrived in Crawfordsville, Indiana, in 1833 to be Wabash College's first faculty member, emerged as the leading advocate of a state system of public education. Pressured by Mills and other reformers, the Indiana General Assembly submitted a statewide referendum calling for a vote on whether to enact taxes to fund at least three months of free common-school education for all children. This 1849 referendum passed, but had a loophole that required a majority vote in each county to approve it for it to take effect in that county. Sixty-one counties approved it, but it was rejected by twenty-nine counties.

Mills's efforts impacted Indiana's 1851 constitution, which established a system of common schools and resulted in the passage of the 1852 Free School Law. This law mandated that all Indiana counties provide at least three months of free common-school education and set up a system to administer it. The law also levied a state tax to help fund public education equally throughout the state. Mills became the second superintendent of Indiana public schools in 1854.

Black children were excluded from these schools. It was not until 1869 that legislation required school trustees to provide separate schools in areas with a sizable black population and integrated schools where the black population was small in number. Black elementary schools became commonplace in most Indiana communities with large black populations. In addition, the towns of Madison, New Albany, and Evansville opened segregated high schools in the 1880s.

Concerned about the state of education in Indiana, a group of teachers and other citizens founded the Indiana State Teachers Association on Christmas Day in 1854. At that time, Indiana had fewer children attending school than any other non-slave-holding state. The

compulsory school law was mandated in 1897, but city and township governments still funded the schools, hired the teachers, and set the agendas.

Although girls were included in the public schools, their educational opportunities were not always the same as those of boys. Educator and suffragist May Wright Sewall (1844–1920) opened her Girls' Classical School in Indianapolis in 1882, instituting a curriculum equal to that of a boys' school that her husband directed. Ninety years later, Indiana Senator Birch Bayh authored Title IX of the Education Amendment of 1972, which stated that "No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subject to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance." This gave female students access to education and school athletic programs that they were previously denied.

As recently as World War II, although school segregation was common in northern states, Indiana was one of the few states that allowed it legally. In 1949 the General Assembly passed the Indiana School Desegregation Act. However, there was no penalty for school corporations that failed to desegregate, so many Indiana schools remained racially segregated long after 1949.

By the late 1950s, disparities in the quality of education between urban and rural schools had become more apparent. City schools offered wider curricula, better educated teachers, modern school buildings, and extracurricular activities such as band, theater, and sports teams. In 1959 the General Assembly passed the School Corporation Reorganization Act. This law combined small township schools into large consolidated schools. By 1968, more than ninety percent of Indiana students attended school in consolidated districts run by professional administrators.

As state control over schools increased, so did state funding. During the Great Depression, a state gross income tax accounted for thirty percent of the revenue for schools, with the rest coming from local taxes. By the early twenty-first century, the state provided three-fourths of education funding.
