Abstract:

During 1946, North Carolina ranked below national education standards but was showing encouraging signs of improving education of the state's youth. Though ranked poorly nationally, it did rank above twelve other Southern states. A history of public school developments is outlined beginning with establishment of public schools by Archibald D. Murphey in 1794.
