Administrative History

The Normal School (1903-1913) was an administrative unit at Brigham Young University. The school oversaw instructional departments associated with education and teacher training programs.

The Normal School, also known as the Church Normal Training School, was part of the university at its organization in 1903. The school offered courses in a four-year program leading to a normal diploma. At times, a one-year professional certificate program was also offered. Students studying for a normal diploma could continue their studies in the College or the Church Teachers' College. In 1913 the Normal School was dissolved and its courses moved to the Department of Education in the Church Teachers' College.

The school principal was James L. Brown (1903-1913).
