Question 3 • CCPS Georgia Studies 8 (45.00900) YL IC

How did education change in Georgia as a result of congressional Reconstruction?

Answer
A
Primary education was made available only in private schools.
B
For the first time, white and African American children attended classes together.
C
New public schools were built, but they were for poor white children only.
D
A public school system was established to educate all the children in the state.

Explanation

Congressional Reconstruction led Georgia to establish a statewide public school system. The goal was to provide education to children across the state, rather than limiting schooling to private schools or to one racial or economic group. Therefore, the correct choice is “A public school system was established to educate all the children in the state.”
