STREET SMARTS START...

AT SCHOOL, Many teens decide that education is not needed in their life due to the fact that they won’t be attending college, but little do they know education is needed in order to succeed in life.

 Dear president,

I am a ninth grader who is really concerned about education.

    Many teens decide that education is not needed in their life due to the fact that they won’t be attending college, but little do they know education is needed in order to succeed in life. Education will have a good impact in our lives when it comes to getting a more descent job and we’ll know more about our finances, education plays a very important role in decision making by gaining feedback from others, education is essential to incorporate new techniques to improve the productivity of the employees. I know a couple that decided not to attend college nor to get any education in their high school years. Due to the fact that they didn’t attend college nor get any type of education they weren’t able to get a decent job, they barely had enough to pay the rent, the house bills and they didn’t have enough money to afford a car. Well now due to the fact that they didn’t gain education they don’t have enough money to pay for her daughter’s college. According to Bernie Sanders “a job should lift workers out of poverty, not keep you in it.” The essence of Bernie’s argument is that a job should help you in life and not keep you stuck with bills. 

    Many people say education is not needed to success, but I must confess, education develops a perspective, about life. Education is what brought this nation, peace. Education is a way in life in which no matter if black, brown, or white your opportunity into succeeding is still open the eyes, of the world. Success is not around the corner but if you study you will find the border and succeed, in life. I know college is expensive, but believe me if education was free, then minds would free. A society which is uneducated cannot think on rational lines. Education helps us build opinions and have some point of view in life. Information cannot be converted into knowledge without education. Education will make you want to quit, but if you quit you’ll not only quit education, but you’ll also quit your way into succeeding in life. So remember if you get no education then you’ll be nothing to this nation and therefore what is the point in life.
