"Welcome to class, today we will be discussing..." Here is something I hear a lot, "People who do not like school are just sour because they are getting bad grades." I am here to tell you that this is false. I, along with many of my friends, am getting straight A's, yet can still not stand the sight of school.
The education system is in dire need of many improvements.
First, people need to realize that kids do not learn the same way. Second, the kids who are doing well should not be forced to go to school every day. This is just a ridiculous waste of time and an excuse for teachers to make more money. Lastly and most importantly, BAD TEACHERS NEED TO BE FIRED. This teacher union thing is not helping the education in America at all. It just allows all teachers after 1-2 years to stop doing any work. Some may argue that people should get paid the same amount for a given job, even if they are lazy and incompetent. If this is true, then why do kids get graded based on the effort that they put into something, while teachers are not fired when they do not perform adequately.
Those were just a few of the many problems with America's school system.
By the way, I am a high school student at the present time.
