​Country School Journal

Picture
WELCOME TO THE COUNTRY SCHOOL JOURNAL
The Country School Journal, sponsored by the Country School Association of America (CSAA), is a peer-reviewed, online publication that includes interdisciplinary, open-access articles, curriculum, reviews, and icons. Its audience consists of people who wish to preserve country schools, disseminate scholarship about these schools, create and/or maintain the schools as museums, promote living history programs, and enable people of all ages to explore country schooling as practiced in the past and present. 


​***Note*** The Country School Journal has completed the migration of our 34 Country School Journal articles to this website from an independent server. We are grateful to our writers who offered their scholarly work in past editions for your enjoyment. The articles that follow are timeless. Our contributors undertook countless hours of research relating their topics to all things country school. It is quite amazing to review the articles we may have read previously, while they remain more relevant than ever to the preservation and promotion of country school history.

We are also appreciative of the efforts of our former editor, Dr. Lucy Townsend, for spearheading the Country School Journal and her work for seven years to solicit scholars to present their research. These articles are the finest in country school history. Hampered by the COVID years and the need for a successor editor, we hope to reinvigorate the CSJ, thus giving scholars and our own members a chance to share their learned publications.  

*As of 2025-26, The Country School Journal is still seeking an editor which would spur future submission of articles.
