Question

3. By the time of the Civil War, public education

Answer 1

was limited to elementary school.

Explanation:

Up until the civil war the possibility of public education was severely limited even for the white population while the girls were educated less and the black population was not allowed to study at all.

It was only during the reconstruction phase that the primary education would be made available for all children and education would be expanded to be more comprehensive than the primary level that was the norm before.
