Answer: True.

Step-by-step explanation:

Horace Mann (1796—1859) was the first notable American politician who advocated for a reform in education to achieve universal public education and provide training for teachers in normal schools. His work defending democratic, universal, nonsectarian, and free education, and his influence in reconstructing the public-education system gave him national recognition.
