The Development of Public Schools in the 19th Century Horace Mann once said, “It may be an easy thing to make a Republic; but it is a very laborious thing to make Republicans.”(Nasaw 40). At the beginning of the 19th century, the United States was far from the ideal model of a developed government. George Washington had completed his first two terms in 1797, as the first president.
