Brooklyn Board of Education manual and course of study, 1867-1887

Scope and Contents

The Manual combines directory-type information with some or all of the following types of material: the bylaws of the board, related legislation, history of the school system, course of study, and listings of schools with their teaching staff. The course of study, with detailed instructions for implementation, was included in the 1873, 1877, and 1880 Manual and a revised course of study was printed separately in 1887.

The title varies as indicated below; the Manual was published variously in hard bindings and flexible bindings.

In later years, the board published the “Bylaws and Rules” and the Directory as separate publications.
