Education in Society Twenty-five percent of Americans that start Highschool do not graduate, thirty percent of Highschoolers graduate but do not go to College right after graduation, forty- three percent of students who start college will not graduate in six years.A better longer education leads to a godd life. Education is important to a well rounded society. Education self empowers people, helps with getting a job/career, and theaches people common since/knowlodge. The fist point as of why education is impotant is it seld empowers people. Recieving a good education help empower one, thus making one strong enough to look after themself in any situation. It is only through knowledge that you can start the questionauthority. It is only then that one can avail your rights asa citizen, and improve in the structual functions of the goveremnt and the economy. It is only through educatation that were one would be able to be succesfully stithe through the social, economical and political society. If one refers to the book Lord of the Flies by William Golding, is a perfect example of that society is better. If the boys did not explore r lean abou the island that they were stranded on they wouldnt have beeb able to work together or function properly. This shows that education self empowers people, maing education important to a society. Another reason that eduation is important is it helps with getting a job and or starting a career. As of Febuary the unemployment rateof the united states was at 7.77%. This is why a cooleg education is vey imortant and is not to be taken for granted, when faced with choosing between high qualified candidate and a low qualified candidate, the employer will most likely lean towards the more qualified person. Such as the employer will not have to invest as much money and time in training, withg the higher qualified person they already know the tricks and the various ways of performing tasks functionally at their job. The same applies for people that spend more time at school and get a higher education, and get a higher advanced diploma.The people are continuelsy improvingtheir profile and knowledga and skills to get higher up on the competitive career ladder. Those who have atained a high education, steer towards the path of development and progress to their country. I are hese indivisual that are the very backboneof our society, including, teachers, scientists, inventors, warfare activists, and political leaders etc., who which if we did not have would crumble an fall with these people with high education are who and wat make this world spin and support our society greatly. There will come a time were one will not want to be employee anymore, one would like to take charge and control over ones life and income. One would like to take charge and be self employed and watch his/hers ideas and philophies to take realistic form. One will prefer to offer jobs rather toan to be offered jobs. In this case one will have to have a great amount of education to succeed. One may even gain confidense and insight to spreed the ideas and knowledge to other companies , and business arenas. This ability comes with expience and knowledge amassed over the years of education. Thus concluding that education and the higher the help with getting a job and or career. The third and final reason why education is important to a well rounded society is, education gives common sence and knowledge. Bring educated is the most important thing for ones life, but the better the education the more important role in making a nation more succesful. Recieving formal education is vital, it not only helps one to achive succes in life it helps one recieve common since and knowledge. One can learn English, History, math, and science in school, and be "book smart". Furthersome one can learn how to life by knowing what to say in a certain real life situation, and to be "street smart". On can also have all the knowledge in the world needed for your profession but if you do not know how to behave with your collegues and customers , then having only book knowledge, one would not get very far up the career ladder. Example, if ones profession was a Physician, and you have all tjhe knowledge about medicine and health care, but if you do not have side manners ando not intereact well with your patients, and co-workers, and team then what is the point of having book knowledge or in the other way if you can work well with co-workers and people and th einvironment and you do not have knowledge about you job then you would not get very far. An example, would be in Lpord of the Flies ralph has very good smart skills he works very well with the other boys but and coperates with doin the jobs , but her isnt smartest "book smart' he doesnt know much about being a leader and contolling the group. Such as it says a full life of education is just what people need tp get 'book and street smart'. Education also helps us gain knowledge, information and interperate things correclty. It also teaches us how tolead our lives mingling in the society and turning out to be good citizen. A person is also judge by his.hers good or bad mannors. Education teaches us how to differinate between good and bad mannors and choosing right behavoirs and cultivate good mannors. Good manors are good fro childrento develop ta a young age. Kids must learn to be polite telephone etiquette, social skills and deeper values. All of this can be taught at school or at home. Teaching your children either at school or a t home, good mannors creates a fundatiion for them that they will say with them throught their entire life. finalizing why education is important ans teaches sommin sence and knowledge. All the text, thus concludes why education is important to a well rounded society, thus concludint that education self empowers people, teaches people how to get a job and start a career and teaches common sence and knowldge
