250 Words1 Page

A classroom filled with desks like a pack of sardines are sealed tight, is not an ideal learning environment. Even though public schools obtain more tax dollars for more students, sometimes more students are not the best case. Teacher to student ratios should be about twenty students per teacher at the elementary level, focusing on kindergarten through fifth grade (Semi). Depending on location, some schools are overcrowded and consist of up to thirty students in one classroom. From science class, to the other end of the spectrum, music, these different types of classes are both overcrowded in almost a fourth of US public schools.

Throughout our high school careers we always get asked what our plans are after high school and never how are you going to pay for that next step of your life after high school. We barely get prepared for the real world in high school we are forced to take classes the school thinks will be good for us not what we think or what will be best for what we want to study for in college. How are high schoolers supposed to be able to pay for college when they don’t get prepared enough in high school to go on to that next level of schooling and have to more than likely go into debt just to be able to pay for it. Colleges should no longer cost an insane amount of money to go there.

    In today society, people are easily looked by their college degree level and they can be judged by their degree. But not everybody can afford to go to college in order to get a degree. People have different reasons of not going to college but most of the reasons are because of the tuition. Tuition are too high and they can not afford it. If the free college situation does not make a great effect on the economy, I believe that college should be free because free college can encourage more students to go to college, earn a degree and can decide on their future without the worry of paying debt and contributing to create a better society with their knowledges.

  • Argumentative Essay On School Funding

    Shannon, this was a very organized clear post. The way you explained how schools get their funding really helped to clarify things for me. You view points on discussion and debate were very accurate as well considering I have found myself wrong in these situations as much as I have found myself right, allowing me to grow mentally and as a person. In my opinion of the how we should fund our schools is to tax everyone equally and to those wealthier neighborhoods who are able to more than sufficiently fund their schools, to take a little extra from them in order to even out the education opportunities in our city. Education is something that we should all be fighting for in our country, state, city, and area.
