The Oakland School Women's Club was a social and service organization
for female classroom teachers (1912-1925). The club's activities included:
operation of a day nursery, sponsoring a building bond campaign and
miscellaneous legislation, and, attendance at California Teacher's Association
and National Education Association meetings. The club was discontinued (1925)
when the larger Oakland Teacher's Association--made up of both male and female
teachers and administrators--took over its functions.
The Oakland School Women's Club papers consist of a history of the Club
(1942) by a former member, four volumes of Club minutes (1912-25), Club
Bulletins (27 issues, 1914-23) and miscellaneous correspondence.
