The Puritans established the first public school in the Massachusetts Bay Colony in the early 17th century primarily to ensure that children could read and understand The Bible. They believed that an educated populace was essential for maintaining a moral and civic society. The establishment of schools reflected their commitment to literacy and religious instruction, as well as their desire to uphold community values and governance. This led to the founding of the Old Deluder Satan Act in 1647, which mandated the creation of schools in towns with a certain population.
