Several of the pre-1965 voting cases brought by the Department of Justice and private parties were in Alabama. The events of Bloody Sunday in Selma, Alabama, in 1965 served as a catalyst for the introduction and passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

  • Alabama Education Policy Primer
    Alabama Education Policy Primer A Guide to Understanding K-12 Schools A Project of the A+ Education Foundation and the Peabody Center for Education Policy Kenneth K. Wong and James W. Guthrie, Executive Editors TTable of Contents Credits/Acknowledgements Introduction Kenneth K. Wong and James W. Guthrie Chapter 1: Accountability, Assessments, and Standards The key to sparking and sustaining improvements in education is alignment between rigorous standards that specify what students should know and be able to do, assess- ments that accurately measure student learning, and an accountability system that rewards progress and establishes consequences for schools that persistently fail to raise student achievement. This chapter explains the elements of Alabama’s courses of study, statewide assessment system, and statewide accountability system and how the three work in tandem to improve teaching and learning. Chapter 2: Achievement This chapter provides a quick reference for the assessments given in Alabama to measure student achievement at the international, national and state levels and where to find this data. The Appendix to this chapter is a report entitled “Education Watch: Alabama” written by The Education Trust, a Washington-D.C.-based advocacy group for poor and minority students. This report provides trend data for Alabama on several national assessments and performance indicators. Chapter 3: Closing the Achievement Gap Alabama, like other states in America, has documented achievement gaps between low-income and non-low-income students; African-American and white students; Hispanic and white students; and special education and general education students. However, research and practice show that all children, regardless of socioeconomic background, can learn at high levels when taught to high levels.

  • The State of Education in Alabama's K-12 Rural Public Schools
    Rural Educator 32(2) Winter 2011 The State of Education in Alabama’s K-12 Rural Public Schools Ronald A. Lindahl Alabama State University The purpose of this study was to compare Alabama’s rural school districts with its city, suburban, and town districts. Descriptive statistics were used for this population study, with effect sizes calculated using Cohen’s d. Findings indicated Alabama’s rural school districts serve slightly less affluent student populations, with a lower percentage of minority students, than their counterparts. They are funded at slightly lower levels than their counterparts in other categories, yet spend approximately the same percentage of their budgets on administration and on instruction. They spend a considerably higher percentage on transportation. Although rural district dropout rates are similar to those of their counterparts, from the third to the eleventh grade, student performance on standardized examinations falls gradually behind that of the students in other locale categories. Keywords: Alabama schools; rural schools; student performance; school funding Alabama is among the 13 states where rural education is 3.

  • A Case Study of Alabama State College Laboratory High School in Historical Context, 1920-1960
    A “Laboratory of Learning”: A Case Study of Alabama State College Laboratory High School in Historical Context, 1920-1960 Sharon G. Pierson Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2012 © 2012 Sharon G. Pierson All rights reserved ABSTRACT A “Laboratory of Learning”: A Case Study of Alabama State College Laboratory High School in Historical Context, 1920-1960 Sharon G. Pierson In the first half of the twentieth century in the segregated South, Black laboratory schools began as “model,” “practice,” or “demonstration” schools that were at the heart of teacher training institutions at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). Central to the core program, they were originally designed to develop college-ready students, demonstrate effective teaching practices, and provide practical application for student teachers. As part of a higher educational institution and under the supervision of a college or university president, a number of these schools evolved to “laboratory” high schools, playing a role in the development of African American education beyond their own local communities. As laboratories for learning, experimentation, and research, they participated in major cooperative studies and hosted workshops. They not only educated the pupils of the lab school and the student teachers from the institution, but also welcomed visitors from other high schools and colleges with a charge to influence Black education. A case study of Alabama State College Laboratory School, 1920-1960, demonstrates the evolution of a lab high school as part of the core program at an HBCU and its distinctive characteristics of high graduation and college enrollment rates, well-educated teaching staff, and a comprehensive liberal arts curriculum.

  • Professional Communities in Alabama, from 1804 to 1861
    OBJECTS OF CONFIDENCE AND CHOICE: PROFESSIONAL COMMUNITIES IN ALABAMA, 1804-1861 By THOMAS EDWARD REIDY JOSHUA D. ROTHMAN, COMMITTEE CHAIR GEORGE C. RABLE LAWRENCE F. KOHL JOHN M. GIGGIE JENNIFER R. GREEN A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2014 ! Copyright Thomas E. Reidy 2014 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Objects of Confidence and Choice considered the centrality of professional communities in Alabama, from 1804 to 1861. The dissertation highlighted what it meant to be a professional, as well as what professionals meant to their communities. The study examined themes of education, family, wealth patterns, slaveholding, and identities. This project defined professionals as men with professional degrees or licenses to practice: doctors, clergymen, teachers, and others. Several men who appeared here have been widely studied: William Lowndes Yancey, Josiah Nott, J. Marion Sims, James Birney, Leroy Pope Walker, Clement Comer Clay, and his son Clement Claiborne Clay. Others are less familiar today, but were leaders of their towns and cities. Names were culled from various censuses and tax records, and put into a database that included age, marital status, children, real property, personal property, and slaveholding. In total, the database included 453 names. The study also mined a rich vein of primary source material from the very articulate professional community. Objects of Confidence and Choice indicated that professionals were not a social class but a community of institution builders. In order to refine this conclusion, a more targeted investigation of professionals in a single antebellum Alabama town will be needed.

THE BROWN PRINTING CO. 1916 Hres Copyright. 1916 BY EDWARD CHAMBERS BETTS ^ 'CI.A'I4R190 NOV -I 1916 "VU) I ^ FOREWORD In the preparation of this work the author is largely indebted to the Department of Archives and History of Alabama, under the capable management of Dr. Thomas M. Owen, who con- tributed liberally of his time assisting in a search of the files and records of this Department. Especially is the author indebted for the aid received from the letters of Judge Thomas J. Taylor,* dealing with this subject. In its inception this work was not intended for, nor is it offered as, a literary efifort, but merely as a chronicle of his- torical facts and events dealing with Huntsville. In its prepa- ration, the author has taken care to record nothing within its pages for which his authority as to the source of information is not given. It has value only as a documentary record of facts and events gleaned chiefly from contemporaneous sources, and is as accurate as could be made after verification from all material at hand, which was necessarily very meager.
