Depending on where they were located depended on if they went to school or not. Frontier children often didn't go to school or if they did they attended in the morning. Children had jobs to do to help the parents and were expected to help with chores. Children as young as 2 would do things like feed chickens. The older children would help with the milking, feeding animals, carry wood and water in, help with the weekly wash, churn butter, chop wood, mend fences, and do the family cooking. They didn't have a lot of clothing because it had to be made and most of what children wore was very simple. Boys had pants and shirt and maybe shoes. Girls a dress and maybe shoes. Southern plantation children were usually tutored at home and Eastern town/city children attended classes, but again they were not like the children of today with lots of clothing and shoes. By the time a child was 7 or 8 many had an apprenticeship to a job of some sort or were helping parents in the family business. Very few went to school beyond 10 or 11 years old. Girls were often married by 15 and mothers at very early ages. Parents could also hire their boys to others for work and collect/keep the wages until they were 21 years old. Abraham Lincoln's dad did that. The students of today would have a hard time in the 1800's because they were expected to help the family, learn the basics of reading, math, and writing, and didn't have the things they have today.
