It is not known whether or not, or where, Ida Totten might have attended a Normal School or received teacher training, but in the fall term of 1883, she began a diary to record her first experience of teaching in Greenville (now called Greendell) School, in Sussex County. She described her frustrations with named children in her class and the challenges of disciplining them, as well as her activities at home on the weekends including attending temperance meetings and church. The final pages of the diary are from May 1884 and contain notes from Page’s Theory and Practice of Teaching, so perhaps she was continuing her teaching education, or had not yet graduated (if she did).
Some of the names mentioned in the diary include: Catherine or Kate Ayers Rutan, Sarah Grace Batley Coleman, Louis Berry, Elsie F. Howell, Abraham or Abram Hubert, Rosie Kinney, Irving Labar, Anna or Annie Longcor, Cora Longcor, Daniel Longcor, William K. Longcor, Stella R. Morris Emmans, Mr. and Mrs. Redding, J. Stackhouse, Annie Stackhouse, Benton Stackhouse, Cassius Stackhouse, Albert Stang, Anson Stang, William Stang, Dr. Sidney Brian Straley, Benjamin Totten, and Jacob or Jake Wolf.
