Mayflower Compact was the first form of self-government in America.
Plymouth, Massachusetts, was founded in 1620.
The puritans did not like the Native Americans. They had sort of a standoffish attitude towards them, because they did not put God first. Instead they put survival first. This caused problems in the puritan communities, and were not welcoming to the natives. This was ironic because the puritans left England because of the religious persecution in England. Then they are persecuting others for not being of their faith. The puritans never saw the native's way of living as a good idea. They thought if you live by the Bible and live for god, then if you are meant to survive, you will and if you die from malnutrition or other survival needs God wanted you to die.
The United States president that was first to attend public school was George Washington. He was the first president and the first to attend a public school. He attended The College of William and Mary.
The Puritans were some of the earliest settlers in America. They influenced a great deal of things that we use today, they basically shaped our nation. The Puritans were the first people in America to introduce an early form of democracy. Also a Puritan named Roger Williams introduced separation of church and state. The Puritans are also responsible for our nations successful economy. They started the New England shipbuilding industry that is still prominent today. They also founded two of the best colleges in the country and among the best in the world, Harvard and Yale. This goes to show how important the Puritans were in the shaping of our nation.
The Puritans established the first public school in Roxbury, MA.

The Puritans believed that everyone should be able to read the Bible so they passed laws to have government pay for education. Harvard College was the first college in the United States and it was originally made to teach ministers.

It was a theocracy: there was no separation of church and state back then, and the Puritans were the dominant religious group, so their religion was the only one allowed. And despite how austere and harsh the Puritans were, they really believed in education, and both boys and girls were expected to learn to read and write.
The first public school was created in 1635 by Puritans. The school was in the home of Philemon Pormont because he was the schoolmaster. It did not have a name at the time but was later named, Boston Latin School.
