  • Esther Frances How (January 29, 1848 – September 22, 1915), better known as Hester How, was a teacher who helped turn around delinquent boys in 19th-century Toronto. How was born in Ireland in 1848 to Thomas Ferguson How and Catherine J. How and immigrated to Canada West in 1849. How graduated from Toronto Normal School and began her teaching career in 1871. It was in 1879 when How was hired under the direction of Toronto Mayor William Holmes Howland and public school inspector to help establish a school for troubled youth. This helped establish her as an advocate for troubled youth. It also helped steer youth away from trouble, away from being handled in the adult court system, and toward a juvenile justice system. The school she taught at was renamed after her in 1912, and she retired from teaching a year later. How died in Toronto in 1915, and was buried in St. James Cemetery. (en)
