It could be said that Thomas Jefferson wanted education to be equal for all the American people. he planned to decentralized the public school system. a legislation draft showed that he wanted to celebrate "Bill for Establish Religious Freedom". He also had another "a bill for the more General Diffusion of Knowledge" he pretended to make education accesible to everyone; to establish a school in each district to teach reading, writing and arithmetic. Children might attend three years gratis and they could stay there as long as the pleased paying for it.
