American Institute of Instruction

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The American Institue of Instruction was formed in 1830. The original purpose was to secure a Massachusetts Superintendent of Common Schools. Due the work of Samuel Read Hall, George B. Emerson and E. A. Andrews, legislation was passed leading to both the appointment of Horace Mann as Secretary of the State Board of Eduction, and the Acts of 1837, providing for a Superintendent of Public Education.
