This case study investigates the roots of early childhood education in the western United States at the Silver Street Kindergarten of San Francisco, the first free kindergarten west of the Rocky Mountains. The Silver Street Kindergarten, which operated from 1878 through 1906, existed outside the local system of common schools. The kindergarten was organized and supported by the Silver Street Kindergarten Society, which included members that represented diverse aspects of the urban community, both immigrant and native-born. The purpose of this study is to understand how the socio-historical context of San Francisco shaped the Silver Street Kindergarten as a local enactment of early childhood education and how the Silver Street Kindergarten contributed to the local enactment of community (i.e., San Francisco) and to the local, regional, and national kindergarten communities. To accomplish this, the study places the Silver Street Kindergarten within an institutional framework to understand the relationship between the kindergarten society and the programs developed at the kindergarten. This study fills a gap in the historiography of the kindergarten of the late nineteenth century, which focuses mainly on the efforts of a national kindergarten "movement" that first established free kindergartens in urban areas and subsequently pushed to incorporate them into public school systems by beginning the work of disaggregating the national "movement" to understand the diversity of kindergarten organizations, participants and curricula. The data for this study includes a variety of primary sources, including annual statements of the Silver Street Kindergarten Society and affiliated organizations, annual statements of the San Francisco School Department, local newspapers, memoirs, personal correspondence, sermons, and the published works of kindergarten participants.
