The reason for creating public schools was because they wanted to train the kids for a better job and have American citinzenship it was the key to a greater financial security and social status. Their was benefits of public schools but also problems like students being miserable not being able to go or not knowing the new rules. Public schools helped families offering them help with child care for employed mothers they took children out of factories and sweatshops they thought children how to read write do math and English language. Schools also perpetuate inequality because equal opportunities differed sharply for black and white children and also religions having different schools for each race. Some other issues that schools had were is that some people resented replacing their native languages in favor of English catholics were especially concerned because many public schools systems had mandatory reading from the protest.
