and he became responsible for supporting his family. Like most of the children in his town, he attended school

member of the Massachusetts bar, but he never forgot those early struggles.
While serving in Massachusetts legislature, he signed a historic education bill that set up a state board of
education. Without regret, he gave up his successful legal practice and political career to become the first

brought into existence the American graded elementary school as substitute for the older distinct school system.
Under his leadership, the curriculum was restructured, the school year was increased to a minimum of six
months, and mandatory schooling was extended to age sixteen. Other important reforms included the
establishment of state normal schools for teacher training, institutes for in-service teacher education, and
lyceums for adult education. He was also instrument in improving salaries for teachers and creating school

libraries.
Mann’s ideas about school reform were developed and distributed in twelve annual reports to the state of

Perhaps it was his own lack of adequate schooling that inspired Horace Mann to work so hard for the
important reforms in education that he accomplished. While he was still a boy, his father and older brother died,
and he became responsible for supporting his family. Like most of the children in his town, he attended school
only two or three months a year. Later, with the help of several teachers, he was able to study law and became a
member of the Massachusetts bar, but he never forgot those early struggles.
While serving in Massachusetts legislature, he signed a historic education bill that set up a state board of
education. Without regret, he gave up his successful legal practice and political career to become the first
secretary of the board. There he exercised an enormous influence during the critical period of reconstruction that

brought into existence the American graded elementary school as substitute for the older distinct school system.
Under his leadership, the curriculum was restructured, the school year was increased to a minimum of six
months, and mandatory schooling was extended to age sixteen. Other important reforms included the
establishment of state normal schools for teacher training, institutes for in-service teacher education, and
lyceums for adult education. He was also instrument in improving salaries for teachers and creating school
libraries.
Mann’s ideas about school reform were developed and distributed in twelve annual reports to the state of
