Charlotte Academy
Under Miss Leavenworth

1822
 
 

CHARLOTTE ACADEMY UNDER MISS LEAVENWORTH.
CHARLOTTE FEMALE ACADEMY.

The second session of this institution has just commenced under the management of Miss Leavenworth, who superintended the last session with the highest approbation. All the branches usually studied by young ladies (music excepted) are taught in this institution. The Trustees flatter themselves, from the talents of Miss Leavenworth as a tutoress, and their attention to the exercises of the school, that very general satisfaction will be given.

Tuition from six to eleven dollars per semi-annual session, with two dollars additional for fine needle work. Genteel boarding at from twenty-five to forty dollars per session. A few more scholars will be received before the school is closed.
John Irwin, Treasurer.

Western Carolinian, September 3, 1822.
