It is the oldest public school system in the United States. HistoryOn January 1, 1644, by unanimous vote, the Town of Dedham authorized the first taxpayer-funded public school in the United States,{{sfn|Slafter|1905|p=07}}[1] "the seed of American education."[2] Other schools, including Boston Latin School and the Town of Rehoboth make similar claims, but Dedham's was the first to be supported exclusively by tax dollars.[2] The first schoolhouse was built in present-day Dedham Square near the First Church by Thomas Thurston.[4] Its first teacher, Rev. Ralph Wheelock, was paid 20 pounds annually to instruct the youth of the community. Descendants of these students would become presidents of Dartmouth College, Yale University, and Harvard University.[1] While living in Dedham, Horace Mann served on the School Committee. Closed schoolsThere are three schools that have closed within the current borders of the Town of Dedham: the Ames School, the Quincy School, and the Dexter School. The Ames School building was sold and is currently an office building in Dedham Square and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[7] The Quincy School in East Dedham was used until 1982{{sfn|Dedham Historical Society|2001|p=24}} and later sold to a developer. The Dexter School in Upper Dedham is still owned by the School Department but is leased out to private companies and The Education Collaborative.[8] Students
SchoolsThe district operates seven schools. The Early Childhood Education Center housed at the Capen School serves students in pre-school and kindergarten. There are four neighborhood elementary schools: Avery, Greenlodge, Oakdale, and Riverdale. All four elementary schools feed into Dedham Middle School which houses grades six, seven, and eight, and Dedham High School serves students in grades nine through 12. Dr. Thomas J. Curran Early Childhood Education CenterThe Dr. Thomas J. Curran Early Childhood Education Center (ECEC) is located at the Capen School and serves children in pre-school and kindergarten. The current principal is Dr. Paul Sullivan.[10] Kimberly Taylor will succeed Dr. Sullivan on July 1, 2018. On October 23, 2017, ground was broken for a new ECEC at the former site of the Dexter Elementary School.[11] It is the first pre-school in the state to receive funding from the Massachusetts School Building Authority.[11] the new building will be 51,000 square feet and cost nearly $30 million.[11] Avery SchoolThe Avery School, located at 336 High Street, was opened in 2012 and serves children from East Dedham and some from Oakdale. Previously it was located down the street in a building currently used as the Mother Brook Arts and Community Center. The principal is Dr. Clare Sullivan.[14] Greenlodge SchoolThe Greenlodge School, located at 191 Greenlodge St, was opened in the 1950s and serves children from the Greenlodge and Manor neighborhoods. The principal is Ashley Bodkins.[15] Oakdale SchoolThe Oakdale School, located at 147 Cedar St, was opened in 1902 and serves children from Oakdale. The principal is Holli Caulfield.[16] Riverdale SchoolThe Riverdale School, located at 143 Needham St, was opened in the 1920s and serves children from Riverdale and Upper Dedham. The principal is Edward Paris.[17] Dedham Middle SchoolThe Dedham Middle School, located at 70 Whiting Avenue, was opened in 2007 and Karen Hillman is principal and Michael Reera vice principal.[18] Every student is issued a Google Chromebook Pixel.[18] Previously it was housed in a since demolished building next door.[20] Dedham High School{{main|Dedham High School}}Dedham High School[21] was founded in 1851 and in 2013 earned a silver medal from U.S. News & World Report, one of only 30 schools in Massachusetts to do so. James Forrest is Principal.[22] In recent years the school has seen tremendous growth in both the number of students taking Advanced Placement courses and in qualifying scores on the exams.[23] The schools athletic program offers 26 varsity sports with a mascot known as the Marauders,[24] and 26 co-curricular clubs and activities.[25] Each student also receives a Google Chromebook from the school. Associated organizationsThe Dedham High School Alumni Association keeps graduates of the High School connected to the school and supports the current students and teachers.[26] The Dedham Education Foundation distributes funds from their endowment to award grants to teachers for or classroom activities or other teacher initiatives and ideas. These include including storytellers, authors-in-residence, art enrichment, literacy and reading programs, social skills programs, and other multi-cultural programs. The Foundation has funded field trips such as Museum of Science, Plimoth Plantation, and The Blue Hills Trailside Museum. Funds have been provided for student performances including live theater productions, drama club, and both the middle and high school choruses. Also, Science Museum presentations and learning kits have been made available through Foundation funding.[27] The Dedham Educational Partnership works to strengthen the home and school partnership by providing e-mail newsletters for each of the schools' Parent-Teacher Organizations.[28] References1. ^1 {{cite web| url = http://avery.dedham.k12.ma.us/pages/Avery_Elementary_School| title = Avery Elementary School | accessdate = 2013-10-09 | publisher = Dedham Public Schools}} [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22]2. ^1 {{cite web| url = http://www.dedham-ma.gov/index.cfm?pid=23996| title = The Dedham Public Schools' Buildings| accessdate = 2013-10-24| publisher = The Town of Dedham}} 3. ^1 {{cite web| url = http://dhs.dedham.k12.ma.us/files/_mHAZO_/179a1aac64110fe33745a49013852ec4/Dedham_Coaches_For_Web_Page.pdf| title = DedhamHigh School Coaches| format = pdf| publisher = Dedham Public Schools| accessdate = 2013-08-13}} 4. ^1 {{cite web| url = http://dhs.dedham.k12.ma.us/pages/Dedham_High_School/Students/co-curricular| title = Co-curricular| publisher = Dedham Public Schools| accessdate = 2013-08-13}} 5. ^1 {{cite web| url = http://www.dedham.k12.ma.us/pages/Dedham_Public_Schools/Community/Dedham_Education_Foundation| title = Dedham Education Foundation| accessdate = 2013-10-24| publisher = Dedham Public Schools}} 6. ^1 {{cite web| url = http://www.dedham.k12.ma.us/pages/Dedham_Public_Schools/Community/Dedham_Education_Partnership| title = Dedham Education Partnership| accessdate = 2013-10-24| publisher = Dedham Public Schools}} 7. ^1 {{cite web| url = http://dhs.dedham.k12.ma.us/pages/Dedham_High_School| title = Dedham High School| accessdate = 2013-10-09 | publisher = Dedham Public Schools}} 8. ^1 {{cite web| url = http://www.dedham.k12.ma.us/pages/Dedham_Public_Schools/Community/Alumni| title = Dedham High School Alumni Association| accessdate = 2013-10-24| publisher = Dedham Public Schools}} 9. ^1 {{cite web| url = http://dms.dedham.k12.ma.us/pages/Dedham_Middle_School| title = Dedham Middle School| accessdate = 2013-10-09 | publisher = Dedham Public Schools}} 10. ^1 {{cite web| url = http://ecec.dedham.k12.ma.us/pages/Early_Childhood_Education_Cent| title = Early Childhood Education Center| accessdate = 2013-10-09 | publisher = Dedham Public Schools}} 11. ^1 {{cite web| title = Enrollment Data| accessdate = 2013-10-01| publisher = Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education| url = http://profiles.doe.mass.edu/profiles/student.aspx?orgcode=00730000&orgtypecode=5&}} 12. ^1 2 {{cite news| title = Schools vie for honor of being the oldest | date = 27 November 2005| accessdate = 2013-10-01| publisher = Boston Globe| url = http://www.boston.com/news/local/articles/2005/11/27/schools_vie_for_honor_of_being_the_oldest}} 13. ^1 {{cite web | url = http://greenlodge.dedham.k12.ma.us/pages/Greenlodge_Elementary_School | title = Greenlodge Elementary School | accessdate = 2013-10-09 | publisher = Dedham Public Schools }} 14. ^1 2 3 {{cite news | url = http://dedham.wickedlocal.com/news/20171023/ground-broken-on-new-early-childhood-center | title = Ground broken on new Early Childhood Center | first = max | last = Bowen | publisher = the Dedham Transcript | date = October 23, 2017 | accessdate = October 24, 2017 }} 15. ^1 2 {{cite news | url = http://dedham.wickedlocal.com/news/20160901/interim-principal-assistant-principal-ready-for-school-year-to-begin | title = Interim principal, assistant principal ready for the school year to begin | first = Amanda | last = Beland | date = September 1, 2016 | accessdate = September 1, 2016 | publisher = The Dedham Transcript }} 16. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.massinsight.org/news/245/ |title=Dedham High celebrates AP students, program |author=Tom De Santes |date=Sep 25, 2012 |publisher=Wicked Local Dedham |accessdate=2013-08-13 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20150610201819/http://www.massinsight.org/news/245/ |archivedate=2015-06-10 |df= }} 17. ^1 {{NRISref|2008a}} 18. ^1 {{cite web| url = http://oakdale.dedham.k12.ma.us/pages/Oakdale_Elem_School| title = Oakdale Elementary School| accessdate = 2013-10-09 | publisher = Dedham Public Schools}} 19. ^1 {{cite journal | journal = Dedham Historical Society News-letter | title = Questions We Are Often Asked - Part II | page = 3 | issue = July 2015 }} 20. ^1 {{cite web| url = http://riverdale.dedham.k12.ma.us/pages/Riverdale_Elem_School| title = Riverdale Elementary School| accessdate = 2013-10-09 | publisher = Dedham Public Schools}} 21. ^1 2 {{cite news| newspaper = The Dedham Transcript| date = April 4, 1908| location = Dedham, Massachusetts | author = }} 22. ^1 {{cite web| url = https://www.usnews.com/education/best-high-schools/massachusetts/districts/dedham/dedham-high-school-9343| title = Dedham High School in DEDHAM, MA | publisher = US News & World Reports| accessdate = 2013-08-13}} }} Works cited
