an 1817 boston town meeting petitioned for the establishment of a system of free public primary schools. the main support came from local merchants, businessmen, and wealthier artisans, while many wage earners opposed it because they knew they would be paying for it through income taxation. in spite of this, boston latin school became public in 1820. this was the first public high school in the united states. seven years later, a state law in massachusetts made all grades of public school open to all pupils, free of charge.
