The story of the Wichita Public Schools goes from the second story of the New York Store in December 1870 to the present where there are 109 school buildings throughout the city. Wichita's school history is full of human drama: race and sex discrimination, alleged extortion, public pressure, teacher protest and controversial programs. It is above all the story of a total concern by teachers, by administrators, and the community for the education of children and adults. A clean very presentable copy in a Brodart mylar jacket.
