Abstract: This is a study of public and private efforts which were made to establish educational opportunities for children in Virginia, North Carolina and South Carolina during the first one hundred year.': after these colonies were settled. Both primary and secondary sources were employed in reaching the conclusions. In North Carolina, achievements were nearer. After three early efforts failed, fifty years passed before the next public school was established. Although ethnic groups did maintain schools for their own children, these reached only a minority of the population.
