RCH 2-5B Yr 2019 Study of Lincoln Purcellville Dispute
This study authored by Larry Roeder in 2016 contains the summary of the dispute. In 1926, the Lincoln-Purcellville dispute arose over the replacement of Lincoln High School, which had burned down and needed to be rebuilt. Lincoln residents wanted to maintain the school in their community, while Purcellville residents argued for it to be relocated to their town. This conflict highlighted deeper issues of cultural clashes, with underlying prejudice against Quakers for their pacifist beliefs and non-traditional voting patterns. The dispute escalated beyond the School Board, involving county and state government officials as well as the courts, showcasing the evolving landscape of school administration in Virginia. Despite tensions, the conflict was ultimately resolved in favor of Lincoln, with the school reopening in March 1927. This event also shed light on broader issues of civil liberties and freedom of speech during a time of political upheaval and social change. -

The second letter (O.T Emerick to Harris Hart) The committee of three was made up of Mr. Combs, Mr. Smithey and Mr. Hoke.

EWP 4-5 Phillips Robert 5-5-1 Yr 1955 May Mrs Robert Phillips Purcellville Graded School Art Program 01 The document, dated May 27, 1955, from Purcellville Grade School to Supt. O. L. Emerick, details the shortcomings of Mrs. Robert Phillips and the art program at the school. The author criticizes Mrs. Phillips for not working directly with the children, lacking organization, and using a vocabulary that the students do not understand. Despite some helpful suggestions, Mrs. Phillips' overall assistance is deemed inadequate and untimely, with frequent delays and missed classes. While clay modeling in grade 5 was successful, concerns are raised about the lack of time and visits dedicated to art education, as well as the need for better facilities such as a kiln. The report suggests that Mrs. Phillips' work could be beneficial if focused on a smaller area and more effectively managed.
