What high school did Andrew Jackson go to?
There were no “high schools” in Andrew Jackson’s time. If there were any kind of schools available, they would have been small, multi-grade schoolhouses that probably ended at the 8th grade (however, an 8th grade final exam from 1895–much past Jackson’s time– contained questions that baffled personally known University grads who tried to them). Home schooling, apprenticeships, “reading the law”, were the means of education probably until after the Civil War (not sure about that, just an educated guess).
