Why would you want to prevent "undesirables" like women, poor whites, and slaves from gaining an education?

first its being prejudice and bullying.  education led to respectable job led to popularity and public opinion finally changes in the goverment. if a rich boy is smart that is expected but if a poor boy is smarter it becomes embarissing so they try to put him down. people had this idea of levels and social order if you were born a slave why should you try to be something else you have your place in the world and social classes shouldn't mix and ideas like tradition striotypes, proper ethics. woman should be modest and in tradition that means being faithful and loyal to your husband. that turned into staying at home to obey his ever command. it was proper and even expected of a woman to follow her husbands ever desire, in high society but also in the town. schools were expensive so for income most poor boys just took up the family buisness, jumped a train to look for work and girls tried to find a dowlrey so that they could get married off. most poor people just followed the code do what they had to do and got pride for helping out their family. school was how to educate children to be proper members of society which was only really need in rich comunities. as school changed and the world having an education meant everything. the rich people did not want to associate them selves with poor so they tried to get rid of them. in the end public schools were created to give people jobs in factories.
