“Google “founding fathers public education””

Sure! Here are some quotes from Noah Webster, considered the “father of public education in America”.

- “Education is useless without the Bible.”
- “The Bible was America’s basic text book in all fields.”
- “In my view, the Christian religion is the most important and one of the first things in which all children, under a free government ought to be instructed....No truth is more evident to my mind than that the Christian religion must be the basis of any government intended to secure the rights and privileges of a free people.”
