I hated to do this so as I said before, this teaches that lesson of what’s right and wrong, therefor learning civility. As I got grew up I learned something every year. In first grade I learned that when older people help younger kids out for a whole school year you can really learn a lot. We had 8th grade buddies that were there every morning waiting for us in our classroom to talk to us before the school day started. Our teachers were very old and wise so they knew that this wouldn’t just be a learning experience for the 8th graders but also the 1st.
One time I tried to sneak away at lunch but they found me in a matter of minutes. Also once a week at random times, I had to have body checks and my entire bad dumped in the clinic. I would get so angry that I tried kicking the nurse once or twice. It was not only embarrassing but also irritating. I am now a sophomore at Southwest Early College and I realized that I put myself in bad situations and lie.
Everyone here gets labeled in middle school. Looking back to Future Middle School, I have now realized where the cliques all began. We formed them back then. If a student did not find on right away he or she made his or her own, usually not a popular one.
In my opinion I think I like all year around in school. If kids really look at it, we get alota days out for a break. Many schools also need to come on there education because the drop out rate may come back up if it already haven’t. Many schools say they do many things to help students and they really care about the students, blah blah blah, some schools are just all talk. Schools have at least a hand full of teachers that really care about the students life after high school, some teachers make sure that there students go to college and some don’t even care what goes on when were out of there classroom.
When I first opened the test, I realized that some of the topics included were never taught. I didn’t miss any math classes throughout the year, so I didn’t understand why the questions were so difficult. I was nervous to get my test results
In some instances I could see if a family member, or student for that matter, would feel resentment for that individual bettering themselves. This is not the case at all with my family. Everyone wants to see me better myself and become successful in my chosen field. As my education continues, I feel no sense of, or need for, separation from family and friends. I still talk about the usual things with the same set of friends I have had since high school.
“You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view – until you climb into his skin and walk around in it.” (pg. 30) is one of the lessons learned. No one in Maycomb puts themselves in Boo’s shoes, so they don’t understand his suffering. People don’t see his true intelligence that was ruined by his cruel father; this makes Boo one of our most important mockingbirds. I see behavior like this everyday, as I walk down the high school halls, into the lunchroom, even just kids hanging out in town – there is always some one judging someone.
As well did I when I first read Gatto's piece against school. But after reanalyzing this article I was able to pick it apart. By going to school you are able to learn and improve the skills you need for future commissions. But Gatto refuses to believe in the public school educational system. Gatto says that school diminishes creativity; if anything kids discover their hidden creativeness in class while at school.
“No one knows what he can do until he tries” One of the most valuable life lessons in “No one knows what he can do until he tries.” When it came to school, I never tried my hardest. Whenever I didn’t understand something, I would become discouraged and give up. My absence of effort showed in my grades. However, in high school, I began to learn that if you truly give something your all, you can succeed. I always received good grades in elementary school.
When I decided to go back to school, knew that college would help me refresh my brain in certain areas that I may need improvement on. I also returned to school because I want a job that will fit with me. Since I have been out of high school, I have had quite a few jobs. The jobs that were employed at, I knew that those jobs were what I did not want to have a career out of for the rest of my life. So, after all the different jobs I had back to back and me not being satisfied with either one.
