About This Item

Fairmont High School Diploma for female student. 1918. Measures 14 x 20 inches. Certificate reads in part "This diploma certifies that Edna Lillian Squires has completed the course of study prescribed by the Board of Education of this District for the High School and is entitled to all the honors and privileges of a Graduate of this Institution." Beneath the decorative text displaying the school's name across top is an illustration of the state seal of West Virginia at the time. The early 20th century saw new educational opportunities for American women who, upon graduating from high school, could attend integrated colleges. Educational activists like Catharine E Beecher advocated fiercely against for women's right to enter any college based on the belief that gender equality was contingent on the quality of female education and institutional opportunities to support it. Light foxing does not affect text or image. Includes state seal and original stamp from school board with ribbon still attached. Overall good condition.
