Horace Mann Lack Of Education

Horace Mann had many different ideas that helped improve, and form the foundation for American education. Some people in society might disagree, nevertheless majority agreed to his views on education. He believed that depending on a person’s education they would be better off in their lifetime. He stated that the lack of knowledge is the reason for conflict. For example as the gap between the rich and he poor widens it will cause more conflict because the lack of education in society. He pointed out the importance of public schools, as he stated that it’s important for public school education to improve student’s morals. Since I came from a public school I would agree that it helped shaped my morals for the better. His Education plan gave everyone

This was a huge factor in many public schools especially mine. As I went through the years from elementary school, middle school, high school, and even college I see the equal opportunity given.
