Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thirty Seventh Annual Report of the Board of Commissioners of Public Schools, to the Mayor and City Council of Baltimore, 1866 At its last session, the Legislature of the State passed a new school law, directing the establishment of a uniform system of free schools throughout the State. In relation to the design of the Legislature in the application of this law to the city of Baltimore, doubts. Were entertained, if we are correctly informed, by a majority of the gentlemen com posing your Honorable Body during the past year. The same doubts, based upon the inapplicability of the law to our citv schools, were, and are still entertained, with but few exceptions, by all the Commissioners, and by a large majority of the citizens whom they represent as resi dents of the several wards into which the city is divided. The Board has received no official information in relation tn their government by another body than the Mayor and (iitv Council of Baltimore. It has, therefore, continued to operate under the authority by which it was constituted, and under the fostering care of which the schools have reached as high a degree of attainment in character and usefulness as those of any other city of which we have any knowledge. It is therefore to your Honorable Body that the Board looks for direction, and it will await your action before it admits of any change in relation to its government. Or to the rules and regulations that have been adopted for the management of the schools under the sanction of the ordinances by which they were first ordered and have since been conducted.
