Answer:

The correct answer to this would be 1. Women could attend school

Step-by-step explanation:

When the Massachusetts Bay Colony was established, the pilgrims believed that women were just sole property to men. This ultimately meant they had no rights whatsoever and they only stayed at home to be at use to the men. The only thing women were able to do was birth children, cook meals, clean the house, and take care of the children.
