Document Summary
In the us, educational opportunity had a relationship on equality. Ideally should be: providing a free education up to a given level which constituted the principal entry point to the labor force, providing a common curriculum for all children, regardless of background. The common school based on a common curriculum. Led to debate of importance of a common core curriculum: partly design and party because of low population density, providing that children from diverse backgrounds attend the same school. Black v white, religious schools, faction schools, schools for catholics, schools for poor v rich, schools for women v men: providing equality within a given locality, since local taxes provided the source of support for schools. Pre-industrial rev, you supported your family to work. Post-industrial rev, transitioned away from family work educating your children because of moving on to manufacturing, etc.
