One of the reasons for promoting education reform in the early 1800s was to make sure Americans were well-educated workers.

Horace Mann of Massachusetts, led the common school movement in the 1800s. He wanted that local property taxes financed public schools. There was a free public school system in the Northern states, but in the Southern states, the situation was different. The South lacked a school organized system and in many cases education was received directly at home. Mann wished to get an education for all children in America.
