I guess I was blind to see how teachers have to teach and how they teach. Back in my day when I went to school teachers cared and tried to keep the students from not being bored and keep us engaged. Now that both my girls are in school. I think it’s bad for the teachers and the students cause all they have is test after test that last for weeks just to prove where our kids stand with the rest of the nation or in the county.

That parents stress to children the importance of education all their school lives, but they continue to give money things that are less important, instead they should put money towards the teachers who wants to help make a difference in every child's life. Barber believes that parents should actually display their actions that they care and value their education. He explains who are to blame for the lack of quality education in America. The generations before the young and the government have a partial blame in why the school system is failing. Barber's argument is more superior, because he takes the sociopolitical context of education in to account, where as Henry does not.
Schooling life is a important part to all of the teenagers. Since they start their school life, every day they meet their classmates and teachers more than their parents. The “A” students have good performance in all of the test, teachers love them. But they don't have friends in school nor clubs. Isn't it a big problem we have to worried about?
America has one of the highest hours in a working week and lowest vacation time out of all of the developed countries today. It has become more fast-paced and frugal then it ever has been. As a result of this children are learning less and less from their parents and more from social media and technology. Since parents are less active in teaching their children, schools are being asked more and more to take their place. Teaching civics, civic responsibility and ethics in schools would target the highest percentage of children.
An educational facility that is given adequate resources has a much better chance of pushing the boundaries of education and developing new and effective methods of learning. Currently, many teachers are required to pull money out of their own pocket just to acquire the materials needed for their class to finish the curriculum. These teachers are being barred from a right to think freely about how their students think because of budgeting. The only way to improve education standards in the U.S. is to show the proper respect to it, both socially and out of our
This is due to parents that can easily afford to spend thousands of dollars out of pocket for a four year degree. In the lower income areas, these graduates do not have the funds or opportunities of their counterparts. Their parents may not have attended college; therefore the students may have never been taught the importance of a higher education to better themselves in life. The military is a more viable option for them. They will have the opportunity to have their education paid for, understand the importance of education, and possibly learn a valuable skill while being able to serve their country.
Many parents can’t afford to send their kids to school with a lunch, and with the price of lunches going up how can we expect these children get the best education available? 50-100 years ago only middle class and upper class people were educated. Now every social class is attending school, and it is expected that every student obtain a certain level of education. An Increase lower economic levels has strained the educational system. On top of all this, there are students placed into classes that they are not properly prepared.
The students in the class of a very good teacher will learn a year and a half’s worth of material. “A child is actually better off in a bad school with an excellent teacher than in an excellent school with a bad teacher. Teacher effects are also much stronger than class-size effects. You’d have to cut the average class almost in half to get the same boost that you’d get if you switched from an average teacher to a teacher in the eighty-fifth percentile.” A good teacher costs as much as an average one, where as halving class size would require that you build twice as many classrooms and hire twice as many

Unfortunately, since the programs in the United States seem to be focused on alleviating some of the effects of relative poverty they have done a "lousy" job of teaching people how to stay out of poverty--finish school, don't have children unless you are married, get a job and good intentions are not enough. It's unclear how much good all these extensive programs have done since they are seldom reviewed by Congress; but they have spent an enormous amount of money--almost $717 billion in Federal funds plus $210 billion in state funds for $927 billion total in 2010--and increasing fast.
