The initial objective was the discovery cf primary materials from the period to fill a gap in the history of American educational thought and practice. Extensive searching cf unpublished and uncatalogued library holdings, mainly those of major public and university libraries, yielded a significant quantity of primary documents for this bibliography. The historical and contemporary works, comprising approximately 4,500 primary and secondary educational resources with some surveying the cultural setting of educational thinking in this period, are organized around 26 topics and 109 subtopics with cross-references. Among the educational issues covered by the cited materials are: public vs. private; coed vs. separate; academic freedom, teacher education; teaching and learning theory; and, equality of educational opportunity. In addition to historical surveys and other secondary materials, primary documents include: government documents, books, journals, newspapers, and speeches.

  • Letter from Andover Head, John Palfrey Phillips Academy 180 Main
    Letter from Andover Head, John Palfrey January 12, 2018 Phillips Dear members of the Andover community, Academy As we’ve seen in our news feeds and in our own communities, the troubling reality of sexual misconduct and harassment is part of an 180 Main Street important national dialog. Many who have suffered silently are finding strength in their collective voices. Andover, Massachusetts Andover has reckoned with its own past, which, at times, has been 01810 tarnished by unacceptable behavior. We’ve pledged to address our history proactively—by supporting those who have been affected, learning from past mistakes, and working to create a campus culture built on trust and respect, education and support. I write today with an update on our progress and an invitation for all voices to be heard. As we have shared in previous letters, our highest priority is the safety and well-being of our students. We weave health and wellness initiatives throughout academic and residential experiences and develop policies and practices to guide students and adults with our students’ best interests in mind. We continue to ask ourselves: What are the social, emotional, and societal pressures facing today’s teenagers? Do our resources and programs effectively connect to this broader worldview? Are we fostering a culture that will root out those who would do harm to others? Excellence permeates all that we do at Andover, from academic endeavors to personal and professional development. Excellence also is the premise upon which we will continue to approach student health and wellness programming. New and ongoing campus initiatives As part of our efforts to promote healthy relationships and a culture of consent, we recently hosted a visit by The Arts Effect Theater Company of New York City.

The COED@40 committee helped shape the many celebratory activities, such as the What Artists Study exhibition and catalog. Our meetings often posed important questions about coeducation on Andover. Would this not be an excellent time to assess our current coedu- cational program in terms of successes and shortcomings? Are we truly coeducational and what might that mean in the school year 2013-2014 and beyond? Is coeducation at Andover effectively challenging and supporting in a fair and balanced manner, youth from every quarter and gender? The idea for the What Artists Study exhibition arose from some of these questions. Prior to the merger of the two schools, boys from Phillips Academy did venture down the hill to the Abbot Campus for specifi c art classes not offered at PA. These exchanges may be viewed as early at- tempts at coeducational opportunities in the arts. After the two schools merged, the visual arts de- partment was enhanced with the addition of teachers coming from Abbot to teach their disciplines in a newly confi gured visual arts program.

The first Town Meeting of the new Town of Andover was convened April 23, 1855. At this meeting new Selectmen were elected and it was voted that Selectmen also act as Assessors and Overseers of the Poor. The first elected Board of Selectmen included George Foster, Enoch Frye, III, and Jonas Holt. The following list of Selectmen was compiled at the request of former Town Manager Ken Mahony on the occasion of the move to the new Town Offices in 1984. Colonel Edward M. Harris, a former member of the Board of Selectmen, researched the list in the Fall of 1983, shortly before his death. Town staff, Alice Flanders and Barbara Gaunt, assisted in compiling the photos. Selectman Gail L.

Some of these standards are based on Andover-specific preferences; most are determined by the latest editions of these three references: • Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary (http://www.merriam-webster.com) • The Chicago Manual of Style (http://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/home.html) • The Associated Press Stylebook (used primarily for documents that might be printed by outside media) (https://www.apstylebook.com/online/) Another great online resource for writing tips, grammar, and punctuation: • Grammar Girl: Quick and Dirty Tips for Better Writing (http://grammar.quickanddirtytips.com) Above all, aim for consistency within your document or project.
