public education  

Definition

  • The origins and evolution of American public education are inextricably interwoven with the development of cities and the social, political, cultural, economic, and technological forces that shaped the urbanization process. In many respects, the development of urban public schools was and remains a microcosm of cities themselves. [Source: Encyclopedia of American Urban History; Public Education]
