The Freedmen's Bureau was effective in that they coordinated the educational activities of various church groups. By 1869 the Bureau oversaw 3,000 schools servicing 150,000 Black students. In may respects the Bureau was successful. For example, Black freedom schools in the South were the first chance for Freedmen to obtain an education.
The Freedmen's Bureau was established by Congress in 1865 to help former slaves and poor whites in the south after the civil war. The correct name of the Bureau was The U.S. Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen and Abandoned Lands.

provide assistance to former slaves
The Freedmen's Bureau was established in 1865 by Congress to assist former slaves in the South. Its main goals included providing food, medical care, education, and employment assistance to newly freed African Americans as they transitioned to life after slavery.
Education meant so much to the freedmen because they are having it for the first time. When they were in captivity, they were not taught how to read or write. Because of them going to school, they have a chance. This allows them to communicate and then later get a job. Freedom the the freedmen meant that they could go to school. This is why education meant so much to the freedmen. The Freedmen's Bureau did its best to integrate Freedmen into the US society. Education was one plan to do this, however, often farming, a skill learned in bondage allowed them to work on farmlands without obtaining any formal education.
