Here is one interesting thing I found.

' Thomas Jefferson, while U.S. President(1801- 1809), chaired the school board for the District of Columbia, where he authored the first plan of education adopted by the city of Washington. This plan used the Bible and Isaac Watts' Psalms, Hymns and Spiritual Songs, 1707, as the principal books for teaching reading to students.'

,John W. Whitehead,The Second American Revolution,quoting from J.O. Wilson, Public School of Washington(Washington D.C. :Columbia Historical Society, 1897).
