An 1880s lithograph of the original California State Normal Schoolhouse campus in San Jose.

The California State Normal School was a educational activity college system founded on May two, 1862, eventually evolving into San José State Academy in San Jose and the University of California, Los Angeles in Los Angeles.

History [edit]

The school was created when the State of California took over a normal school that educated San Francisco teachers in clan with that city'southward high school system. This schoolhouse was founded in 1857 and was generally known as either the San Francisco Normal School or Minns Evening Normal School.

Although the California legislative act founding the school referred to the institution every bit the "Normal School of the State of California," the institution was usually referred to as the California State Normal School. The 1870 Human action that moved the school to San Jose formalized the California State Normal School name. However sometimes it was referred to every bit San Jose State Normal School or Country Normal School at San Jose.[two]

In 1871, the school moved to Washington Square Park at Fourth and San Carlos Streets in San Jose, where San José State Academy is all the same located. The original building at Washington Square Park was completed in 1872 only burned down on February 10, 1880. Information technology was replaced by a second building in 1881, depicted in the lithograph at right.

In 1881, a southern branch campus was announced in Los Angeles, which in 1919 became part of the newly established southern co-operative of the University of California. In 1887, the California legislature changed the proper name of the 2 normal schools, dropping the word "California" and designating them simply equally "Country Normal Schools." By the end of the 19th century, the State Normal School in San Jose was graduating roughly 130 teachers a year and was "1 of the best known normal schools in the West."[3]

The original campus later became San Jose State University, the founding institution of the California State University arrangement.

Other campuses [edit]

Other State Normal Schools were established in Chico in 1887, San Diego in 1897, and elsewhere throughout the state of California. With the exception of the Los Angeles campus, the organisation of State Normal Schools would later become the California State University system.

In 1919, the California State Legislature established the southern branch of the Academy of California and in so doing, transferred the campus of the Country Normal Schoolhouse at Los Angeles to the new university co-operative. Students at the Land Normal Schoolhouse became students of the new southern co-operative, which over time evolved into what is today the UCLA Department of Education.

In 1921 the California State Legislature decreed that the remaining State Normal Schools would be known as State Teachers Colleges and that the original campus would be known every bit the Land Teachers College at San Jose. In 1935, the State Teachers Colleges became the California Land Colleges, administered from the State Department of Education in Sacramento. The new San Jose Country College was no longer express to educating teachers and later evolved into San José State University.

Athletics [edit]

Later on 1887 the official proper noun of the San Jose campus was the "State Normal Schoolhouse at San Jose." The school's able-bodied teams initially played under the "Normal" identity as indicated in the 1910 football squad photo on this page, just they gradually shifted to the State Normal School identity, as evidenced past images of the SNS football and basketball game squads from this era. Despite the SNS identity, the schoolhouse continued to be referred to as the "California State Normal Schoolhouse, San Jose" in official publications like the 1919 schoolhouse bulletin pictured on this folio. Historical athenaeum in the Martin Luther King, Jr. Library on the San Jose Country campus include a number of pieces of State Normal School memorabilia, including a "SNS" pennant.
