Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Twenty-Fourth Annual Report of the Superintendent of Public Instruction of the State of Michigan, With Accompanying Documents, for the Year 1860
The territory of the State is distributed into more than four, thousand School Districts, each having its group of homes and home interests, and its separate Schoolhouse and School, where the great work of educating the young goes yearly on. In these thousands of School Districts, are living, as shown by the School census of 1860, two hundred and forty-six thousand six hundred and eighty-four children, of the ages to which the law adjudges instruction to be due. In this great mass of child hood, embracing nearly one-third of our entire population, lie the germs of the future character and power of the State.
