Life of a student is a very stressful one, as you drag yourself to school around 7:40 you desperately try to find friends that have completed a large sum of the mound of homework we were given the day before. Everyone lines themselves in the hallways trying to urgently scribble down answers. It comes to a point when you don’t even care if they are right or wrong as long as there is something there. The bell becomes your enemy, it is the sound of, “your screwed, ” blaring through your ears. Everybody
Summary of Against School by John Taylor Gatto Most kids today cringe at the fact that they have to get up at the crack of dawn to go to school. They grunt and complain about having to complete six classes a day, five days a week, nine months out of the year, and twelve years of school.

The work became more vigorous the teachers seemed agitated to be there and my enthusiasm was plummeting at an exponential rate.
