46 pages : illustrations ; 28 cm African American education in Jacksonville, FL: A Comparison of the Cookman Institute and Old Stanton School by Sandra K. McLaughlin-Galleon. Independent research paper, University of North Florida, September 30, 2013. Abstract: This paper unlinks the history of 2 educational institutions from the complex issue of slavery & emphasizes academic achievement through a discussion of the education of African-Americans in Jacksonville after the Civil War. The cultural & educational opportunity provided for former slaves, free blacks, & other new arrivals in Jax after the Civil War had a profound affect on the future of all African Americans. The Cookman Institute & Old Graded School developed along different lines into the institutions that they are today. Cookman Institute is now both Darnell-Cookman Middle/High School of the Medical Arts of Davis Street in Jacksonville & Bethune-Cookman University of Daytona Beach .
