EDUCATION
The one place we get introduced to formal education is in school. We all know School years are the groundings of a person education. Schools and education are the foundation of a person’s development in society. Attending school increases our abilities to be responsible good human beings. Education is entering a new world in the pursuit of our dreams. When we focus on education we get to know the world and helps have a stronger nation, it directs our life’s to careers that we wish to pursue. Education is a opportunity to discover what it is your good at. Majoring and graduating is part of education. In result there is cons and pros to this subject. In this matter I know Education is well worth the sacrifices to this life.

Education may have not been one of the three basic needs for a human being although it is equality important, for the progress of a nation and the goodness of society, in general education is important. We live in a competitive world and neglecting education is not wise. Education should always be emphasized in a young adults life many do not have the courage to attend schools institutions, when in fact Schools and education founding’s are good at making the road to college successful. Education has led many government founding’s and grants to institutions. The reason they do this is to foster the education in society. The future of a nation is definitely safer in the hands of a educated person. "Our progress as a nation can be no swifter than our progress in education. The human mind is our fundamental resource." - John F. Kennedy Education is in the hands of every individual. Who is willing to sacrifice their freedom exchange of educated courses.Having an Education can be very rewarding and enlightening to one’s life.

To look at the other side of the score board, there is some cons Americans face with Education. Many Americans do not have the encouragement of their family members or rather say parents. American parents usually expect their children to be in school and do well. Other nationality’s and lower class parents, who work hard every day, do not have the time or energy to talk to their children about education. Another challenge that the educational systems face is gun culture, alcohol consumption and drug abuse. There is always going to be drugs and alcohol so we need to keep those things in mind to assure our education systems do not have a high problem of such acts. Many of us should take responsibility to keep the school systems out of criminals and foreigners of any kind of dangerous acts towards students and teachers.

Knowledge as they say is something no one can ever take from you. This is absolutely true, you may not have money, power, or beauty but if you have knowledge you can use this tool to be successful and that is why education is important to a young person. Education is a no ending activity for the human being we are constantly being educated and educating others. Education is not just an opportunity is an obligation to unlock your future to the highest potential. Having an education can change your life completely not just for yourself but for family as well. There is many pros in having an education. I can’t deny there is some cons but listing a few, we can clearly say Education is well off if dedicated and determined.
One thing I do want to point out is if you are planning to get an education you must surround your self with people of academic welfare. Pursuing a major can be very difficult when you are not in the environment of a educated person. Many do not believe this is true but in fact there was a study in the university of Virginia by Roberta Williams. Showing the average students surrounding environment, and according to unnirversity of Virginia Students with peers who attend college or a educated constitution have greater GPAs then the student who is not around an environment of educated people.

Putting all my resources together and arguing if education is in good standing and is being well taken care of, I have to say the one thing that stands out is religion in our schools . It leaves many students confused about who really is the creator of us and our nation. Instead of having a healthy and progressive debate on the way religions as a subject should be put across, politicians today are too busy trying to file lawsuits against each other to determine its status in school, institutions. We are in land of opportunity and should be able to talk about religion, this matter can be a pro or a con to a student, keeping in mind it has it has a lot to do with us as students. To get to the end of our education inquiry we have seen different aspects of education pros and cons. Relating to a person’s life in there path to an educational life style.

In the end we can surely say we will all have battles to face when we attend our school constitutions. We all have same struggle when it comes to one subject and that is Education. Because of the relevancy in subject we all go through the same obstacles. Education is an opportunity of a life time. Education is not taken lightly in America. We all want to strive for greatness and have a better nation for the future if we have a nation of educated people, then we shall conquer the battles this nation faces through education and intelligence. We have an obligation and a responsibility to be investing in our students and our schools. We must make sure that people who have the grades, the desire and the will, but not the money, can still get the best education possible’’. (Barack Obama) With that quote in mind Education is a very rewarding beneficial tool for your life, and the lives of the future generation to come.
