ARIZONA TERRITORHL NURJHL SCHOOL.

History.
The Arizona Territorial Normal School was established at Tempe by an Act of the Thirteenth Legislature,
amended and re-enacted March 10, 1887.
The objects of the school were declared by said Act to
be the instruction of persons, both male and female, in the
art of teaching, and in all the various branches that pertain to a good common-school education; also to give
instruction in husbandry and agricultural chemistry, in
the fundamental law of the United States, and in what
regards the rights and duties of citizenship.
The school has been in active operation for eight years,
during which time there have attended the institution two hundred and ninety-five students, and thirty-five
have been graduated, fifteen of whom have taught in the
Territorial public schools since graduation. Many others
\Vho ha,~e not graduated are doing active and meritorious
work in the schools.

General Information.
LOCATION.

The Territorial Normal School is located at Tempe,
Maricopa County, on the line of the Maricopa & Phe1'nix
Railroad.
Its situation is in a healthy locality, and in the midst
of a farming community characterized by industry, thrift,
good morals and good order.
QUALIFICATIONS FOR ADMISSION.

Applicants for admission must not be less than fifteen
years of age.
·
They must be of good morals and industrious habits.
They must be able to pass an examination showing
their ability to parse the words of any ordinary sentence;
to solve any problem in arithmetic up to and including
common and decimal fractions ; in geography to bound
any State or Territory, and locate the principal rivers,
cities, etc., of the world; to write a legible hand, and to
read intelligently.
Applicants holding Arizona Territorial or County
Certificates or Diplomas of graduation from any accredited public Grammar or High School will be admitted
\vithout examination.
Any public school in the Territory will be placed on
the list of accredited schools when it is shown in a satisfactory manner that it is sufficiently thorough in instruction.
Students of the University of Arizona will be admitted without examination, and the record of work done in
the University will be transferred to our books, when the
record is certified to by the President of the University.

8

ARIZON.4 TERRITORIAL NORMAL SCHOOL.

Students of the Normal School wishing to enter the University will also have the work done in the Normal School
placed to their credit at the University when properly
indorsed by the Principal of the Nonna! School.
Similar arrangements have been made with the Normal
School at Los Angeles also.
Regular examinations for admission will be held on
the first and second days of each term.
For the accommodation of students entering later in
the term special examination will be given on Monday of
each week.
ACCOMMODATIONS.

The Normal School building is situated on a twentyacre tract of land, and is a brick structure, sixty by
seventy feet in size, and one story high. A ten-foot hall
extends through the building from north to south.
Four rooms are provided, each thirty feet square.
The entrance to the hall at each end is by double
doors, and windows placed at regular intervals of a few
feet around the rooms afford ample light and ventilation.
The building is surmounted by a high roof, leaving a
space of eight feet between the roof and ceiling. The
entire structure is surrounded by a veranda twelve feet
wide. Ventilators admit the passage of air in every directio11, thus providing as cool a building as can be devised
for this climate.
The Seventeenth Legislature, by unanimous vote,
approved by the Governor of the Territory, April 7, 1893,
imposed a tax of two-fifths of a mill on each one dollar of
taxable property in the Territory for the purpose of providing suitable buildings for the school, the present accommodations not being sufficient. During the summer of
1894 work will be begun on the new building, and pushed
as speedily as possible to completion.
APPARATUS.

The school is provided with excellent apparatus for
illustrating the various subjects taught, and additions

ARIZO..VA. TERRITORIAL !\TOR"J.-JA.I_, SCHOOL.

B

will be made to· the supply of chemical, philosophical and
other apparatus as the same ma.y he needed.
LIBRARY.

The Normal Library TIO\\' consists of seven hundred
volumes, covering the fields of history, science, education
and literature. The vflluable Smithsonian scientific publications ha vc been placed in the library, and the principal
educational publications are received by the institution
regularl:y. All necessary.· books of reference arc at the
service of the students.
Students alone are allowed to take hooks from the
building, and then only for t\VO \Veeks (if called for by
another student), and. are held responsible for the return
of the volume in good condition.
MUSEUM.

We respectfully solicit thefricnds of education to assist
us in the collection of specimens qf birds, n1inerals, etc.,
also fossils and archreological specimens.
1'he name of the donor, the location from \vhich the
specimen \Vas obtained, and a11 other particulars knO\Yn,
should accompany the package. All contributions should
be boxed carefully, and sent by express or freight to the
Xonnal School, 'fen1pe.
During the last year friends of the school haYe given
many valuable specimens. By their aid and the activity
of students and teachers the school no\v possesses a \VOrking collection of minerals, ores 1 insects, A.rizona plant.~ anrl
geological formations; many of the more common archreological 1-emains have a1so been recelYed.
EXPENSES.

The ayeragc costs for books, supplies, etc., \vill be
about $15.00 per pupil for each year. Good board and
lodging can be obtained in private fatnilies at prices ranging from $20.00 to $25.00 per month. By the formation

10

ARIZONA TERRITORBL NUR.\I.4L SCHOOL.

of clubs expenses can be reduced beloi.:v even this amount.
Many students board themselves.
Tuition is free to those who obtain an appointment
from a member of the Legislature, and to those who sign
a declaration that they attend the school for the purpose
of preparing themselves for teaching in the public schools
of Arizona. All others are charged one dollar per month.
GRADUATION.

In order to graduate, the student must be at least
eighteen years of age, must have attended the school for
a period of at least twenty-two weeks, and must pass a
\vritten exa1nination in all the studies of the course.
If it appears from the resulting papers and the record
of daily recitations and. deportment that the applicants
for graduation possess the learning and other qualifications necessa1·y to teach a good common school, said persons shall receive certificates of graduation which will
entitle the holders to teach a grammar school in any
county in the Territory of Arizona.
DISCIPLINE.

In a Normal School little need be said concerning discipline.
It is expected that every pupil will exhibit in his daily
conduct those qualities of head and heart which should
al,vays distinguish t11e earnest learner and teacher.
The ability to control others is never fonnd in those
who cannot control themselves. In accordance with this
principle, the pupils will be expected so to conduct themselves as to merit the appellation of true men and women
-an honor to the1nselves and their communities.
SUGGESTIONS.

It is suggested that students purchase no books until
they have consulted their teachers, but it is well to bring
those which they already possess.

.4RIZONA TERRITORI.4L NORMAL SCHOOL.

11

Students desiring to enter the school should provide
themselves i..vith a recommendation from the teacher of
the school which they attended last, and present the
recommendation to the Principal of the Normal at the
time of entrance.
We earnestly solicit teachers and County Superintendents to urge upon those who intend to become teachers the importance of entering some department of the
Normal School (the pedagogical, certainly), for the sake
of obtaining that helpful training, the lack of which has
hampered so many of our teachers.
County Superintendents and Boards of Trustees in
want of teachers are respectfully solicited to communicate with the Principal of the Normal School.
Although the primary idea of the Normal School is to
prepare for the schools of the Territory a supply of teachers, trained and equipped for their vvork, it is also intended to furnish an opportunity to the youth of our
country to secure an education beyond that possible in
the grammar school, and to round out and complete the
common-school system of the Territory.
The course of study in the Normal School will therefore follow that of the Public Schools in regular sequence ;
and pupils on completing the grammar course in accredited schools will be eligible to admittance to the Normal,
and we request the School Principals to second our efforts
in this direction.
To parents throughout the Territor.r \Ve offer an
opportunity to educate their children at home equal to
that offered by other similar institutions elsewhere. We
ask the people of Arizona to compare our course and
work with those of other Normal Schools.

Remarks on Course of Study.
The course of study has been arranged in accordance
with the order of mental development, and the successive ,studies are intended to furnish the healthful,
educative' discipline which the growing mind requires in
order to produce complete and distinctive character.
Believing that there is no subject of human thought
which will not return large dividends in the form of men, ta! growth to an investment of earnest, sustained labor,
the course has. nevertheless, been composed of those
, studies which will be o\ practical benefit in every-day life,
as well as conducive to higher intellectual ability.
The importance of following the course in the selection of work cannot be nrged too strongly upon the
student.
No time is Jost. in finishing the lower branches before
proceeding to the higher, find much is gained in the way
of clearer comprehension, definiteness of-ideas, and more
tenacious memory.
Pupils are requested not to leave any study half done,
'\l;nless it is impossible to do otherwise.
Fragmentary knowledge, though indeed of much
worth, is not to be compared for a moment to that deep,
thorough, connected knowledge which distinguishes the
true scholar.
Students desiring to take any work out of its regular
place in the course are reqnired to consult with the teachers, and obtain th~i:c_- permission before beginning the
study.

Syllabus.
PREFATORY NOTE ON SYLLABUS.

'fhe syllabus is intended to sho\Y the general outline
of each subject as it is taught in the school. It should be
studied in connection with the time tables and tabulated
course of study given else,vhere. The orde1· of study is
not preserved in the syllabus, but it is in the course. The
syllabus is not a mere analysis of a text hook, but the
record of 'vork already performed in the school. ~\ careful read-ing of it cannot but su1Jport the claim of the
school to thoroughness of \vork and advanced methods of
presentation. Exan1ination ,vil1 sho\v that \vherever pos-.
sible the aim kept steadily in vie\V is to lead the pupil to
make practical applications of his kno,,~}edge as fast as it
is gained. There is no real education \vhere the po,ver of
doing goes halting far behind the po,ver of thinking. To
insure thoroughness of understanding, examinations are
held once a month, and a per1nanent record kept of the
~turlent's standing.
