Looking through a stranger's eyes you see the statistics of American Schooling Ranks sink to the bottom of the well. students are failing to keep up with good grades and high GPAs because they lack motivation, time management, and lastly thorough revision. Each day they go to school just because they have to, they don’t even feel the need to try anymore.

Which is really simple, it’s time for your child to be deported to another nation for a fresh start in academics. Parents, don’t you agree with me? Well let me put it this way, you are working day and night for child’s needs, and that you don't even have a minute to see how their academic performance are or even to know anything about them. Through this deportation process, you don’t have to spend a cent for them, other than when it comes to the school fee. This school fee is what the school is paying to take care of your child's expenses. Rest of it is taken care of, and you won't need to worry about your child’s clothing, food or other expenses. Additionally, when you child reaches a certain age, he or she will be able to work in a field they are interested in. Once the school notice that their student is failing mostly all the classes, the school admin will take decisions that end in the deportation of the student. This decision will be made with the permission of the student and their parents. The school allows the students to pick a nation they want to be sent to and what grade level they want to start over from. Although, the grade level they want to start over from, should be lower than what they are in at the current

  • I Just Wanna Be Average, By Mike Rose

    1025 Words  | 3 Pages

    We live in a society where we are surrounded by people telling us that school/education and being educated is the only way to succeed. However, the school system is not up to the standards we want it to uphold. There are three issues we discuss the most which are the government, the student, and the teacher. In John Taylor Gatto 's essay “Against School”, we see the inside perspective of the educational system from the view of a teacher. In “I Just Wanna Be Average”, an essay written by Mike Rose, we hear a student 's experience of being in a vocational class in the lower level class in the educational system when he was supposed to be in the higher class. Both Gatto and Rose give their opinions on how the educational system is falling apart. Today the government is only trying to get students to pass, making it hard for teachers to teach what they want. Students are affected everyday by the school system. They sit there - bored - and do not think that the teachers care, making the

  • Slurring Spanish By Larz Rodriguez

    1051 Words  | 3 Pages

    Through Rodriguez travels he has seen “Spanish speaking students are often seen as trouble”(Rodriguez 346). These student are not only “forced to speak English as soon as possible”, but this is done through “threat of punishment”(Rodriguez 346). Spanish students are not being received by the educational system but instead pushed away. They are punished for speaking Spanish and clearly not treated the same as English only speaking students. Their ability to speak Spanish brings a negative label on them, and it is apparent that the students are not important when considering their educational decisions. With “before and after school programs being cut” taxpayers are told “public schools are not made for babysitting” (Barry 63). Students grow by being apart of academic activities such as music and art. The students are not being considered and Rodriguez would recognize this through his experience. Instead of his ability to speak Spanish seen as a tool to be used with his education it was looked down upon. He was not considered in his education when he was, “pushed from class to class” and when getting to a teacher that he believed accepted him he was, “placed in the corner and told to play with blocks (Rodriguez 347). With him not being able to speak English, the school looked down upon him. They put no effort into getting him in a separate class that might be able to help him develop his English. This would take him to consideration with his needs to have the best possible

    Schooling has a lot of problems that need a lot of solutions. Many of these problems stem from the fact that the American school system is notorious for wasting the time of students and teachers. Students rarely get the chances to learn and experience topics that not only interest them but are also topics that have the potential for being important in their future careers. Time is also wasted during standardized tests that do not give American students an accurate representation of their intelligence compared to the intelligence of others worldwide.

  • Pros And Cons Of Undocumented Immigrants

    1094 Words  | 3 Pages

    Illegal immigration has been a major topic of discussion in America for years. What is discussed less often, however, is the academic plight of the children of illegal immigrants. Should these immigrant children be allowed to attend public schools? What happens to them if they cannot attend? With new standards of excellence in every state, and the demands of “No Child Left Behind” still looming over each district, should schools be required to take on the education of students who speak little, if any, English, may have learning or emotional concerns, and are not citizens? Both sides of this issue raise cogent points that must be carefully considered.

  • Bilingual Education for Migrant Students and Assistive Technology

    2769 Words  | 6 Pages

    Over the past three decades a sudden and steady rise in the Hispanic population in the USA has become evident. While most of these migrants are coming from Mexico and Central America, they are all coming for better work opportunities. (STATS). Over the years more and more migrant families have taken residence in the USA. Now the Hispanic population is the largest minority group in America (SOURCE). As the amount of migrant children has increased, so has the need to incorporate these children into the local school systems so that they might have a chance to catch up with other children of their own age. Since the sheer number of migrant children, primarily of Spanish speaking countries, has increased so rapidly, the need for transitional English language proficiency programs has become more vital to the long term success of educating migrant children. According to J. Wirt, a writer for the National Center for Education Statistics, in general, Hispanic-Americans have a higher dropout rate from school and attain lower levels of education that non-Hispanics (Wirt, 2000, pg. 1). Wirt also continues to state that the more recent a migrant arrives in the United States the higher the chance for one to drop out or not continue to higher education.

  • The Consequences of Grade Inflation

    647 Words  | 2 Pages

    The Consequences of Grade Inflation When students arrive at university, professors expect them to understand the material to an exceptional standard. The problem is that grade inflation is occurring more regularly in secondary schools and universities across the country and when these students’ marks are sent to universities or colleges, the student may be given multiple scholarships for something that he/she should not have earned. Grade inflation is conceived between both students and teachers, meaning that the students are given higher grades when they have inadequate learning, reading, and verbal skills, while the teachers do not have to grade as many papers as they should in the real curriculum. There have been multiple examinations that have confirmed that grade inflation is very real and still occurs today. Students seem to think that they do not need to put forth much effort in school to do well, and grade inflation encourages this thought.

    In our country, we are not challenged enough in our school systems. Our schools often get us to graduation and do not go above and beyond standards. The blame falls equally on the students as well. The students are not trying to challenge themselves as they should be, or as other students are in different countries. The students in other countries are working very hard because they know that is how they will be able to have a better life for themselves. Here in this country, students are raised up being content with what they have and realizing that they will not be struggling too much if they just do the minimum and get by. An interesting article, on the topic of our education system that I found, was published by PBS.org. This article sta...

  • Essay On Undocumented Students

    945 Words  | 2 Pages

    There are over 11 million undocumented individuals living within the United States today (Passel, 2011). Along with experiencing the same stresses and risk factors the other Latino immigrants face, undocumented students face a unique set of challenges when looking to attain post-secondary schooling (Perez 2010). Undocumented students are not eligible for federal financial aid and many private scholarships, formal employment, are unable to obtain driver’s licenses, and often live in fear of being deported at any time. However, research shows that undocumented students have been able to overcome the odds against them through community and family resources and the support of educators working with and for them on matters of importance, such as tuition equity policies for state institutions. On June 15, 2012, President Obama authorized the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals executive order, which deferred the removal process for The social, psychological, and educational experiences of undocumented students have a number of effects on their success throughout their lives.

  • Argumentative Essay On The Grading System

    A statement from the Huffington Post states, “From a very young age, we are told the importance of getting good grades. Especially in high school, we are told time and time again that our grades affect what college we will get into. While grades are extremely important, people often forget about the importance of learning, not just getting good grades. There is a difference between the grade received in a course and the amount of learning that took place in the course.” Parents and institutions should teach the importance of learning. The society around the upbringing of students emphasizes getting good grades as apposed to getting every detail and aspect mastered. School priorities should be reevaluated and changed for future students
