Our Commonwealth is the home of Boston Latin, America's first free public school; of Harvard, America's first college; of Mt. Holyoke, America's first college for women; of Perkins School for the Blind, America's first school for the sight-impaired. For centuries, we have been a leader in education because our forebears appreciated that education was about advancing civilization and securing our future.
