For instance, in 1831, the first public high school was founded in Lowell, Mass., where mill owners searched for an alternative to on-the-job remedial training. Employees in the mills had to read, calculate, communicate and perform small feats of engineering. The owners realized that it would be cheaper to pay for public education prior to employment than to teach employees on the clock.
