      Prof A I P Rinehart, superintendent of the public 
schools of Waynesburg, Penna, is among the prominent 
instructors of the county, and a man of marked ability as a 
teacher. He was born in Franklin Township, this county, 
April 17, 1860, and is the son of William Rinehart and 
Elizabeth Porter Rinehart, who were of English and German 
descent. His parents were natives of Greene County, and 
descendants of its early settlers. His father was a farmer, 
and of his family of nine children, Prof Rinehart is the 
oldest. He received his early education in the common 
schools and afterwards took regular courses in the Edinboro 
State Normal School, graduating in 1883. He has since engaged 
in teaching as a profession, and his work has been confined 
to Greene County with the exception of two years that he was 
principal in the High School at Freeport, Armstrong County, 
Penna. In 1885 he was elected to his present position of 
principal of schools in Waynesburg. During vacation he has 
frequently instructed other teachers of the county. In 1888 
he taught a very successful term in Jackson Township, his 
pupils being principally those who had themselves been 
teachers. Prof Rinehart is a genial, pleasant gentleman, and 
is held in high esteem by the teachers of Greene county.
