Normal school, a school whose methods of instruction are to serve as a model for imitation; an institution for the training of teachers. [1913 Webster] Syn: Normal, Regular, Ordinary. Usage: Regular and ordinary are popular terms of well-known signification; normal has now a more specific sense, arising out of its use in science.

It is abnormal when it departs from those principles. [1913 Webster]
