Early Mormons considered the education of their children a sacred responsibility. Schools were held in people's homes in Nauvoo. Jackson believes that this was not done for economic reasons, but rather because it enabled people to have greater control over what their children were taught. They also only permitted other Church members, not non-Mormons, the task of teaching their children. The responsibility for seeing that their children were taught fell upon women.
