Brief Description:
In 1689, William Penn established a Friends Public School in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. This book includes well annotated images from the 10 Friends schools founded in or near Philadelphia before the 20th century: Abington Friends School, Frankford Friends, Friends Central, Friends Select, George School, Germantown Friends, Greene Street Friends, Plymouth Meeting, William Penn Charter, and Westtown. Philadelphia Friends Schools tells the photographic story of an educational philosophy rooted in three centuries of faith and practice.
