People are always gonna have different opinions about school. School is important for people because of their education. School shows you things that people need to know for the real world. For example, we need reading because we are gonna be reading lots of things so we can know what we are doing and we know how to do it. So we are not struggling.
The purpose of education is just to prepare us for the real world.
“ Preparing students academically’’ school shows us how to read, write, and solve problems. So we know what we are gonna face because if we don’t know how to do anything then we are just gonna struggle and not get good paying jobs that we need so we can get paid. Education is basically our lives and it shows us what we are gonna do in life and how successful we are.
The purpose of this education in the 21st century is to how teenagers do with their life.
“Education must enable a person to become more efficient, to achieve with increasing facility the legitimate goals of their life.” People with education can think, and think well. They are taught to ask questions, reflect, and analyze all critical skills for later success. Education stretches the mind, exposes students to new topics, and pushes students to do better. As a result, students may find skills they didn’t even know they had.
Bringing back vocational training
“Today high- schoolers hear barely a whisper about the many doors that the vocational education path can open.” Education also helps people reach their goals and dreams. People just really have to work hard and give their best because if we don’t put our part into it then we are not gonna get anywhere. Teenagers don’t realize that they don’t have an education because they think that they got it but they really don’t instead that they are just gonna struggle and they won’t have a job so they can get money, but they will start realizing that when they start struggling.
68% of high school students attend college. That means over 30% graduate with neither academic nor job skills. Which translates into a whole waste of time. Of those who do finish college one- third or more will end up in jobs. Colleges aren’t for everyone. The people who don’t go to college can still get a good job because they just got to work hard and show that they can actually show that they will give it their all. School is not for everyone but people go to school because they know it’s for them and that it will help them out with what they need or for whatever they are trying to achieve for themselves or with they want the money because there are some people that just want the money because they think that money will always solve their problems.
People need to do their own thing like what they think it’s best for themselves because if people do things that they hate, they are just gonna live miserable, which no one should. People should just give it their all and work hard to achieve their dreams and to be successful in life so they don’t struggle.
