Additional Information

Elmer Thompson recorded this view of students in a science lab at the school in Ellendale, North Dakota, that was established to train students for occupations in industry and teaching. Before there were “colleges of education,” teachers were trained at “normal schools” that were intended to set norms (or standards), especially for public education.
