Immediately
upon arriving in the Valley of the Great Salt Lake, the Pioneers began the
erection of buildings to serve the double purpose of school and church needs.
Meanwhile, the first primitive schools were held in tents or by the light of
the campfire. Mary Jane Dilworth held school in a military tent in the Old Fort
beginning in October 1847, and George Albert Smith is said to have held classes
by light of campfire at Parowan in 1851. Speaking of Miss Dilworth’s school,
Mrs. Spencer said the following: “The
school house was an old military tent, shaped round like a wigwam, and placed
near the center of the fort. The teacher had the dignity of an old camp stool
for a seat, but the nine pupils had to be contented with logs. The school was
opened with prayer, and the first day was spent learning a psalm from the Bible
and singing songs. Writing materials were varied and unique. Some of the
students had slates and pencils, and others had pens and paper, but those who
had neither took charcoal and wrote on smooth logs or dried bark of the white
mountain birch. When nothing better was available for a mid-day meal, the
chidren went out and dug sego roots.
