The other urban center of the county, St. Mary's, remained almost static between 1900 and 1930. Thus as the rural areas of Auglaize County lost population in the early 20th century, Wapakoneta paralleled the In the context of these broad trends, public education in Ohio evolved, sometimes in response (generally grades 1 through 8), for example, public interest in education and pressure for improvement brought on a series of changes from the early 19th century on.
Though the Ohio Constitution of 1802 specifically addressed the importance of education for the state's citizens, taxation; and in 1837 a law created the position of State Commissioner of Common Schools, a As the century progressed, much more was to follow. In fact, nearly every year saw the passage of some legislation or other having to do with public education. Pivotal pieces of legislation included the Akron Law of 1837, which originally applied only to schools in that city but was expanded into state legislation in 1849. It allowed the establishment of union schools, where a single school could serve a district and numerous small sub-district schools ever-larger centralized schools replaced smaller schools scattered throughout rural areas.
The important act of 1853 made it a matter of law that education should be free to all Ohio youth and also vested administrative power over schools in the township board of education. -This replaced the former system of individual, autonomous districts and brought a new level of township control, and the new structure encouraged creation of consolidated township schools. that required school buildings to be safe and healthy, and it issued specifications to be followed. Most matters pertaining to the physical facilities, however, appeared to be left up to the discretion of local officials, who still retained broad autonomy. Page National Register of Historic Places centralized authority in educational matters.
Continuation Sheet could be eliminated;this was perhaps the first movement toward the long process of to public pressures and sometimes as a result of specific state legislation.In primary education Section number 8 Some legislation addressed school buildings themselves;for example, there was an 1889 law organization to the local level. While sub-district schools were permitted, they remained under consolidation which extended into the 2Oth which continues today),in which (6-00) United States Department of the Interlor NationalPark Service Blume High School, Wapakoneta, Auglaize County, Ohio High schools were of increasing importance from about the mid-19th century on.
Prior to that time, education beyond the primary level, or secondary education, was carried on largely by private academies, which charged tuition: there were, for example, just over 500 secondary- level private academies in Ohio during the 1840s. Between 1840 and 1850, however, a number of public high schools were established, and as the century progressed high schools grew in number and became increasingly important. Their growth was primarily a response to public pressure for free schools beyond the elementary level, pushed by the state's rapid urbanization and by the movement of people into new jobs that required more education than common school of seven, eight or nine grades within easy access of every child. But with the living of the American working man, and the general increase in wealth and culture, the battle was transferred about 1876 to the high school field.
For half a century it has waged with ever of the American child's birthright." (Clifton) By 1869 there were 198 such schools, a number that would increase to 836 by 1900 and to over 1,300 by the 1930s. From the late 19th century on, much state educational legislation was addressed to the matter of high schools. The Boxwell law of 1892, for example, also permitted students from districts with no high school to attend the high school of an 'adjoining district. In 1902, the Brumbaugh law defined secondary education, created three classifications of high schools, and set minimum curriculum standards for each. In that same Under a 1909 Ohio law, boards of education were authorized to offer manual training, domestic science, commercial, agricultural, and vocational courses if they chose. Growing out of a movement in the 1870s in which Calvin Woodward, an educator from St.
Louis, was Page Continuation Sheet National Register of Historic Places enforcement of compulsory school attendance;together with the ever increasing standard of had been necessary for a life in agriculture. high schools; the establishment of the principle of control over child labor;and the "The battle during the first one hundred years of American independence was to establish a standardized the qualifications needed to progress from elementary school to high school;it qualified students to attend high school in another district.
One observer summarized the trend toward universal high school education as follows: Section number 8 decision of the Kalamazoo case, about 1870, making it legal to raise taxes for the support of year, the Boxwell-Patterson law required school districts with no high school to pay tuition for High schools were firmly established as part of Ohio's public school system by 1875. increasing success until today (1929) a high school education is universally considered a part United States Department of the Interior National Park Service Blume High School, Wapakoneta, Auglaize County, Ohio prominent, this law was a response to pressures for schools to provide broader training and experience than just in academic subjects.
Some, like Woodward, saw such training as an essential part of educating a well-rounded student; others felt that this training was important to ensure that children leaving high school were ready for gainful employment. Through the late 19th century and into the early 20th, there was general move toward the provision of such In 1914 the Ohio General Assembly passed a major law with significant impact upon schools. Under this law, the county replaced the township as the unit of government responsible for responsible for all schools in the county, with the exception of exempted cities and villages with a population over 3,000. This law was a clear additional step in the trend toward more centralized local control over public schools.
The Bing Act of 1921 made school attendance compulsory for youth from six to 18 years of age;those of age 16 could be released from school to work if they had completed the seventh already-established high school. The effect of this law was a sudden and permanent increase in school attendance, and established schools, primarily in both large and small cities, found mandated that each public school student should have at least 100 hours of physical education during the school year. The law did not state how this was to be accomplished; it did not, for example, mandate construction of gymnasiums.
By that time, however, physical education In summary, the broad trends in the late 19th and early 20th centuries that impacted public 'schools, and especially public high schools, were these: 1) public schools served an Ohio legislature, responding to public pressures, passed various laws affecting school finance, organizational structure, curriculum content, and supervisory and decision-making authority, resulting in a formal, highly-structured legislative framework within which local school boards were to operate; 3) there was a move toward centralization of public education responsibilities at the county and the city level, with a move away from the more diffuse township system; courses.

The city's public schools dated back to the turn of the 19th century, when the first pioneer schools opened. As in many communities, these early schools were fairly informal and moved from place to place -- sometimes being held in a brick schoolhouse, at others in various churches or other buildings. The first multiple-room building devoted to school purposes was built in 1856. In 1866, Wapakoneta public schools were organized under the state's version of the Akron Law and, now that the school building had become a union school drawing from outside A new Union School on the same site as its predecessor was completed in 1875. This building had seventeen classrooms, an assembly hall, and six recitation rooms. When it was ready, the old school was demolished. Later the new Union School would be known as the Third Ward side is standing today.
The Second Ward building was condemned in the late 1940s, and it and the Third Ward building were replaced in 1949 by Centennial Elementary School, which two blocks north and east of where Blume High School was later to be built. In 1919 St. Joseph's School established a high school in a portion of the 1899 building. The high school moved in 1961 to a new building north of Wapakoneta but closed in 1974, at which time the 1950. Page Continuation Sheet National Register of Historic Places and drama.
increased opportunities for physical education and exposure to cultural events such as music levels.The move was away from one-room schools and small rural high schools toward 1889, when the city's growing population made it necessary to build a second school on the School and then as Williamson School.Wapakoneta had only this single public school until Wapakoneta proper, the school board built an addition to accommodate more students.

The 1899 school was then leased to the public schools and was used to house the seventh grade during part of the longer used for school purposes but has survived in other uses and is listed in the National achieving graduation in 1871.
High School classes were held on the top floor of the Third Ward (Union) school building for almost 40 years, until growth in the student population and the school was donated to the board of education by L.N. Blume, an Auglaize County native high school. When it was completed, it was expected that the school would serve the city's educational needs for an indefinite period. However, rapid growth of Wapakoneta's school- age population meant that Blume was becoming overcrowded after just a little over a decade. The school board turned to the voters again, and a $100,000 bond issue passed in November Frank L. Packard, who had made a specialty of schools and other institutional buildings.
The new addition, which was built as a public building for school use, was operated in an unusual cooperative arrangement with the local YMCA, which established a library in the front portion citizens acknowledged the importance of secondary education by their support of the bond themselves in passages in yearbooks at the time, thanked the community for relieving them of National Register of Historic Places Continuation Sheet entirely to classrooms. who was successful in both mercantile and banking businesses in Wapakoneta and who lived of1922 by a two-to-one margin.The school board engaged well-known Columbus architect Register along with the adjacent church.

The community essential drawing card for new residents and businesses. Indeed, when the 1925 addition was planned, it was with the idea of attracting students from outlying areas and other communities.
The news article reporting on the passage of the 1922 bond issue noted that it passed by a wide margin despite strong local anti-tax sentiment, a measure of the community's commitment to better secondary education facilities. As early as 1910 the Blume yearbook had a student editorial arguing the need for a library, not only for use by the students but by the community as well, which at the time had no public library. When the 1925 addition went forward, new managing boards were created for both the library and the gymnasium, and news stories at that time argued that the expanded facilities addition also included home economics rooms in the classroom portion. The effort and energies that Wapakoneta put into its high school were a measure of the community's aspirations for the future.

In addition, however, it also serves as a document of significant changes -At the time Blume High School was built there was considerable debate about how schools Architects and educators debated what they saw as the problems of traditional school design -- fire-prone wood construction, lack of adequate stairways and egress, inadequate natural light and ventilation, and lack of facilities for both physical education and for vocational and William B.

Numerous fireproof, enclosed stairways and adequate restroom facilities also were essential elements, as was adequate ventilation. central stair, and it accommodated traditional educational practices such as gathering students in large "recitation halls" for a portion of their studies. Little accommodation was made for recreational facilities or for non-academic activities.
In addition, such a design tended to be inherently unsafe because there was only a single means of egress, and restroom facilities and ventilation usually were inadequate. Though the 1925 addition certainly was not an example of all the latest ideas in school design, stairways in both the front portion and the classroom wing, providing substantially greater fire did not have, designed also to provide assembly space; there were rooms for non-academic studies such as home economics; the front portion of the addition housed a library and reading of the movement to provide safer and better schools, and all needed to be added to the original buildings, and also changing tastes in architectural styles.
During the first decade of the 20th century, when the original school was built, Renaissance-inspired designs were popular for commercial, institutional, and residential architecture; the Blume school's design, while not a "textbook" example of the style, shows strong influences from it. Similarly, the 1925 addition has many elements of the Georgian Revival style, which was widely popular by that period. As noted already, the addition was the work of Frank L.
