Not all did. Only towns with fifty or more families had schools. They had schools because the Puritans thought that their children should learn how to read The Bible. Some even learned to read it in Hebrew and Latin. The children also learned how to write in school.
If you want a similar question... Boys went to school longer than girls. This was because the girls needed to stay home helping their mother do chores that later in life, they would have to do for their husbands. What chattel!
