At the end of the nineteenth century, federal pressure forced the LDS church to relinquish much of the control they held over public schooling in Utah. In response, the LDS leadership founded a number of private church schools, but their extent was inadequate to educate all LDS youth. The Church attempted to compensate for this shortcoming by creating the Religion Class program in 1890 to provide students with religious training on weekdays supplemental to their secular state education. Each year some 60,000 1st through 9th graders attended these classes until church leaders discontinued the program in 1929.
