Location, Building, Etc.
The West Chester State Normal School was founded in the year 1871, by the joint efforts of the Trustees and contribu- tors of the West Chester Academy, and the citizens of West Chester and vicinity.
West Chester is a beautiful town of over 7,000 inhabi- tants, the county seat of Chester County, and is pre-emi- nent for its morality and intelligence. It is about twenty- five miles west of Philadelphia, with which it is conneifted by two railroads, over which trains run at all hours of the day. Both of these are controlled by the Pennsylvania Rail- road, and all trains fur West Chester leave the new Hroad Street Depot. A sliort branch road connects West Chester with the main line of the Pennsylvania Railroad at Frazer, where close connections are made with the trains on the main line.
THE BUILDING
Is situated on the south side of the Borough, half a mile from the Court House, is new, of stone, 200 by 112 feet, four stories high, with basement. It is heated throughout with steam radiators //arifc/ /« //le rooms, rendering them comfort- ably warm during the coldest weather.
As this building has been found to be too small to accom- modate all who have applied for admission, a new wing, 105 by 53 feet is now in process of ere<5lion. This wing will ac- commodate one hundred more students. The building is surrounded by ten acres of beautiful grounds.
STUDENTS' ROOMS.
The rooms are generally arranged for two students each. All are good sized, have high ceilings, are well ventilated, and are all thoroughly heated by dire6^ steam radiation. The rooms are comfortably furnished, have single beds, and the ladies' rooms are all partly carpeted, have wash stands, bowls, and pitchers, and are furnished with woven-wire mat- tresses.

Admission, Government, &c.
CONDITIONS OF ADMISSION.
Pupils will be allowed to enter the regular course at any point for which they are actually fitted. They may enter at any time during the Session, and will be charged from date of entrance till end of Session, unless by special agreement.
A prompt attendance at the commencement of the Session is of the utmost importance, both to the progress of the pu- pil and proper organization of the School.
Students desiring to enter the Institution should make ap- plication to the Principal at as early a date as possible.
OUTFIT.
Pupils boarding in the Institution will be furnished with single beds, bedding and wardrobe, and are expected to fur- nish two pairs of blankets, or an equivalent, looking glass, towels, and table napkins; also an umbrella and a pair of rubber over-shoes. Many of the students provide carpet for their rooms, thus giving them a very neat and home-like appearance.
GOVERNMENT.
Self-Govermnent is regarded as the only true government, and nothing will be required except that which a true sense of honor and self-respect would naturally demand from the individual.
Any pupil whose influence is found to be vitiating, will be removed from the school.
MORAL AND RELIGIOUS CULTURE.
The intercourse of the students with each other and with the Instructors, most of whom reside in the Institution, will
26 WEST CHESTER STATE NORMAL SCHOOL.
be regulated in conformity with the usages of refined and cultivated society.
All students are required to attend the opening exercises of the School in the chapel each day, and all must attend re- ligious services each Sabbath morning in the town, at the churches preferred by their parents or guardians.
LABORATORY.
The new laboratory, recently completed, renders the fa- cilities for Analytical Chemistry very complete; the depart- ment is under the charge of a practical chemist, who has de- voted years to this important branch. A full course in qualitative analysis, blowpipe analysis of minerals, &c., is given each term. Students receive instruction without extra charge, but are required to pay for chemicals used, break- age, &c.
APPARATUS.
The Institution is supplied with Philosophical and Chemi- cal Apparatus of the most approved kind, a large addition having been made recently. Students in General Chem- istry will be charged at the rate of two dollars per term, for materials used in experiments before the class.
MODEL SCHOOL.
The Model School is a most important adjunct to the Nor- mal School. If a Normal School fails to inculcate good methods of teaching, it fails to accomplish the great end for which it was established. The Model School should, there- fore, be what the name implies, a school in which teacher- students may witness the best methods of instruction, and learn to practice them.
This school is conducted with a view to produce the best results, both in the progress of the pupils, and the attain- ment of correct methotls by the stuilent-teachers. Before students are allowed to teach classes in this department, they are required to witness the plans adopted by the Principal and her Assistant. They are then recjuired to teach under the constant supervision of the Principal of tlie Model School. Two meetings each week are held for the purpose
WEST CHESTEK STATE NORMAL SCHOOL. 27
of corre(Sting errors in teaching and suggesting new methods. In addition to the course of training in the common branches, a full course in object teaching and Kindergarten instru6lion is given by the Principal of the department, who for two years studied the system with Miss Louisa Frankenberg, (a former pupil of Froebel and assistant teacher in his original Kindergarten) and for six years was practically engaged in Kindergarten teaching.
In the wing recently erected, a hall has been set apart for pupils of the Model School boarding in the building. These pupils will be under the special care of the Principal of this department. The advantages offered are such as to render this school unusually attractive to those who have young children to send away to school. The number of boarders in this department is limited to fifteen.
LIBRARY AND READING' ROOM.
There is a well sele6led library belonging to the school, to which students have access, subject to regulations adopted by the Trustees.
The reading tables are supplied with the leading periodi- cals of the county, together with the city daily papers, and the local county newspapers, to which students have free ac- cess when not on duty required by the School.
LITERARY SOCIETIES.
There are connected with the school, two flourishing Lit- erary Societies, The Moore Literary Society, and The Aryan Society, composed of students and members of the Faculty.
The value of these societies as adjuncts of education, is so great that students cannot afford to negle6l the opportunities they furnish for literary and oratorical culture.
LPXTURES.
Lectures upon important subjects are frequently given throughout the year. During the past year a course of lec- tures ujion English History, another upon English Literature, and several upon scientific subjects, were given. In addition
28 WKST CHt>TKK STATK NORM A I, SCilOOI..
to the lectures given in the building, students can attend lec- tures in the town by eminent platform orators.
MUSEUM.
The museum contains a large and valuable colledlion of specimens, illustrating every department of Natural Science. It was commenced in the year 1826, and has been annually enriched with contributions from every portion of the world. The justly celebrated "Herbariums" of the late Dr. Wm. Darlington, and David Townsend, now in this Museum, are conceded to be two of the most accurate and extensive pri- vate collections ever formed in this country.
A large room, 36 feet in length by 32 feet in width, has been fitted up for the display of this valuable collection, which will hereafter be more accessible to special students of Science and Natural History.
TEXT HOOKS.
Text Books are sold to students below Philadelphia retail prices; but all books used in the Elementary Course are fur- nished on rent to those preferring it.
INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC.
The Piano is taught in accordance with the most improved modern methods, and by instructors of eminent qualifica- tions. The pupil is made to feel that an understanding of the art of music, and a mastery of this instrument, constitute no light accomplishment, and cannot be attained by any short and easy way. All the work done, therefore, is upon a plan which contemplates the higher results of musical cul- ture. We cannot encourage the prevailing impatience so fa- tal to genius and lasting success, which works only under the stimulus of immediate results. No pupil is led to expect a single triumph of attainment except as the fruit of patient and long continued labor.
APPLICATIONS FOR TEACHERS.
Frequent applications are made to the Princi|)al for well trained teachers, and it will be our aim to su|)|)ly the demand as far as possible. Directors, and others desiring to employ
WKST CHESTEK STATE NORMAL SCHOOL. 29
teachers for the higher grade of schools, will please remem- ber that we are better able to supply their wants near the end of each term.
CALENDAR.
The school year is divided into two sessions. The Winter Session will begin Monday, August 28th, and continue twenty- eight weeks. The Spring Session will begin Monday, March 26th, and cont'mue fourteen weeks. There will be a vacation of one week at Christmas, and one of the same length be- tween the sessions in March.
TERMS.
Tuition and board, including heat, light, and washing, for the Winter Session, $140; one-half payable in advance, the remainder on the fifth of December ; for a period less than the session, per week, $5.25. For the Spring Session, $65 payable in advance ; for a period less than the session, per week, $5.00.
For tuition alone, for Winter Session, %\'^, one-half pay- able in advance, the remainder at the fifth of December ; for a period less than a session, per week, $1.65. For Spring Session, in advance., ;g2o ; for a period less than a session, per week, $1.50. For tuition in Model School, Winter Session, $20; Summer Session, $\o. For a time less than a session, per week, 80 cents.
The " State Aid" of fifty cents a week is deducted from the bills of those who comply with the conditions stated be- low, making the total cost to teachers $184 per year. The State Aid is liable, however, to be reduced somewhat. See next page.
Teachers whose schools do not end until after the begin- ning of the session, are charged by the week at term rates, if they enter as soon as their schools close.
EXTRA CHARGES.
For instruction on the Piano or Melodeon, with use of in- strument, for Winter Session, $34; for Spring Session, 516. For lessons on other instruments, special arrangements must be made with the Professor of that department.
30 WEST CHKSTEK STATE XuKMAl, Si;H(lOL.
There are no other extra charges except the cost of the chemicals used by those studying chemistry, before referred to.
DEDUCTIONS.
Students absent two consecutive weeks, or longer, on ac- count of personal sickness, are entitled to full reduction for the time thus lost.
Those leaving for any other cause will be required to pay for half a term, unless by special agreement with the Prin- cipal.
All bills must be settled with the Prificipul, who acts in be half of the Trustees. Bills for one term must be settled be- fore a student will be permitted to enter upon the next term, unless by special arrangement.
STATE APPROPRIATIONS TO STUDENTS AND GRADUATES.
By a recent Act of the Legislature, the following appro- priations are made by the State to Normal Students and Graduates.
1. Each student ovtx seventeen years oi age, who shall sign a paper declaring his intention to teach in the Common Schools of the State, shall receive the sum of fifty cents per week toward defraying the expenses of tuition and board- ing.
2. Each student over seventeen years of age, who was dis- abled in the military or naval service of the United States, or of Pennsylvania, or whoi^e/ather lost his life in said service, and who shall sign an agreement as above, shall receive the sum of ONE DOLLAR per week.
3. Each stutlent wlio, upon graduating, shall sign an agree- ment to teach in the Common Schools of the State two full school years, shall receive the sum of fifty dollars.
4. Any student to secure these benefits, must attend the School at least t^uelve consecutive weeks. 'These benefits will be deducted from the regular expenses of board and tuition.
If the approjjriation by the State is not enough to meet the demand, the amount is distributed />;•<? rata. It has been customary for the Legislature to appropriate a certain sum to provide for these payments. Frequently this appropriation
WEST CHESTER STATE NORMAL SCHOOL. 31
is not large enough to pay the full State aid for the s/iring ses- sions. For the spring session of 1881 60 per cent, of the State aid was paid ; for that of 1882 44 per cent, was paid. The same amount is paid at all of the State Normal Schools. The State aid is always paid in full for the Fall and Winter term.
VISITORS.
Calls on the pupils at other times than during the hours of recreation, seriously interfere with the objects they have in view, and therefore, will not be allowed except in case of necessity ; and parents are especially requested not to permit their children to be absent from any school duties to visit home or elsewhere. Persons desiring to visit the school are cordially invited to do so at any time.
