CONTENTS The Colonial Period The Constitution of 1776 and the Early Years of Statehood The Education Act of 1839: A Period of Expansion The Constitution of 1868: Reconstruction through 1890 ... NC State Superintendents 1852-Present The Colonial Period Throughout the colonial period, the provincial government accepted no responsibility for education. The meager educational opportunities which did exist resulted primarily from the efforts of religious leaders of the Anglican, Presbyterian, Quaker, and Moravian churches and from private tutors employed by a single family or several families in a cooperative undertaking. Literate parents sometimes taught their own children and, perhaps, the children of neighbors. A few affluent parents, mostly plantation owners and merchants, sent their children to England for further education beyond that provided by tutors. In a very few instances, in early population centers like Edenton and New Bern, schools with several teachers were established. A state highway historical marker in Elizabeth City reads "First School. Charles Griffin Taught In This County, the First Known School in North Carolina, 1705-1708." These early schools in Pasquotank, Chowan, and Craven were the exceptions rather than the rule.
