1826 - Private Education

The Charlotte Male Academy opens to instruct pupils in Classical subjects, such as Latin and Greek. Young women who attend the new Charlotte Female Academy, which opened one year ago, have new course offerings for this year. They can study astronomy, chemistry, ethics and history. Until now, most young women were schooled, if at all, in piano, painting and embroidery.
