Our Public Schools: Are They Free or Are They not?

By Edmund Francis Dunne

"Our Public Schools: Are They Free or Are They Not?" examines the critical question of access and funding in public education during the late 19th century. E Francis Dunne delves into the complexities surrounding the notion of 'free' public schools, probing whether these institutions truly provide equitable opportunities for all, or if hidden costs and systemic barriers impede access for some segments of the population. This work offers a valuable perspective on the historical debates that shaped the American education system, revealing the ongoing struggle to reconcile the ideals of universal education with the practical realities of funding and social inequality. Dunne's analysis remains relevant for contemporary discussions on education reform and the pursuit of a truly equitable educational landscape.
