America’s High Schools Compared to that of a Third-World
In my point of view, America is the world’s greatest country which gives the best opportunity to people to build their future. Many people come to America from all over the world because there is a better opportunity than in their own country. Many wealthy people from other countries spend so much money to send their child to the US for a better education. Therefore, America has been given a great chance to help international students to get their education.
What is not clear to me is that some high schools are not offering the same quality of education and attention as other schools. I am having a hard time to believe that in the greatest country in the world, students

The students who took Art and Science attend the morning classes and the students who took Geography and History attend in the afternoon. Each level grade had about seven classrooms. The morning and the afternoon classrooms contained about ninety students in each class. I think the classrooms were bigger than the classrooms here in America, but unlike here, we had to share one long desk with three students. In the US each student has their own individual desks. We had about twenty- eight desks in the classroom. Usually the girls sat with the girls and boys sat with the boys. It was not restricted where we had to sit, but it was better to pick the seat the first week of school.

In that first week, our homeroom teacher nominated two students to be our classroom leaders. Throughout the day the leaders made sure we behaved right or they would report us to the teacher. The leaders had multiple responsibilities. For example, they made sure the classrooms were cleaned before we left the room. Each day they select five students to tidy up the class. Actually, we had fun cleaning up the classroom. It was nothing like Fremont High School. I have never seen rats or bugs in our classrooms. They were very clean and

Since we stayed about only five hours, the school did not serve food. However, we had some people come inside the school and sell snacks in the administration office. A lot of us didn’t have money to buy snacks and never walked into that area. I wouldn’t know how I might feel if I had nothing to eat for eight hours like some Fremont High School students. Usually bus riders leave their home early in the morning and return late afternoon. They have to be starving during school time. No one can focus on their work without having good nutrition. We were very lucky that most of the students’ homes were in walking distance. None of the students had to take a bus to
