What Love Can Do: A Brief History of Quaker Education in Philadelphia.
Kashatus, William C., III
Private School Monitor, v15 n3 p4-10 Spr 1994
William Penn understood that many colonial settlers would not be members of the Religious Society of Friends, so he tried to ensure the practice of Quaker ideals by establishing a compulsory, universal school system embodying the values of community, equality, pacifism, and simplicity. After 300 years, the Philadelphia Yearly Meeting's Committee on Education continues to carry out Penn's vision. (MLH)
