Imagine that you have to wake up early, when the sky is still dark, when the whole village is still silent. After cooking for your whole family, you need to walk for 4 hours to get to school on time, with no drinkable water or food. After all of that, you finally arrive home and your parents tell you that you are no longer going to school because they can no longer afford to pay your tuition. Although you are exhausted, you are devastated because education can help you succeed and have a better life.

Now, just imagine you come from an impoverished family. When you finally persuade your parents to give you a chance to go to school. You walk ten miles to school, lonelily, hungrily and dangerously. You enjoy the feeling when you sit in the classroom, learning. You are full of curiosity about the world you live in, you are so talented that you believe you are going to change your destiny by studying. Then one day, your parents say to you, sorry, you are not going to school anymore. You are a woman and now it is the appropriate time for you to marry some stranger who is twenty years older than you and you are going to have your own family and children from now on. No more classes, no more school, no more education. How will you feel when there is no right for you to make your own decisions?
So for the second part I am going to talk about is the attitude people have towards women’s education. The pressure from the society consequently stop girls from going to school. In a lot of developing countries, people no matter what gender, believe that girls should get married early, at about twelve to thirteen years old, and have children as early as possible. Girls are not allowed to attend school. In their mind, school is the place where it will ruin the girls, strip them out of their identities, religions and their traditions rather than a place for a proper
Starting Tuesday January 17, 2017 – TODAY - all students must park in the upper student parking lot. This includes late arrival and early dismissal students.

The need for acquiring a college degree has always been a difficult decision for students. Oftentimes the thought of attending college is seen as a requirement to enter the higher class in the United States. It has become common to think that recipients of a college education will end up making more money than the people who do not receive post-secondary education. The choice of whether or not to attend college has been pondered in the minds of adolescents. The amount of money that people make weighs heavily on whether or not they attend college right after high school.
However, many don’t want to drop out from their studies; they want a better education and better jobs that will pay them well. Not to have to work in a job that pays them low wages and to top it off still have to pay the loan they applied for to stay in college. It’s an everyday struggle young people go through every year just to stay in college to get their education. In the book On the Frontier of Adulthood Frank F. Furstenberg state that “More youth are extending education, living at home longer, and moving haltingly, or stopping altogether, along the stepping stones of adulthood.” Young people not reaching their adulthood, and still living at home to pursue, there dream of going to college.
I have been in school for thirteen years, a staggering 76% of my life; and after all this time nothing has changed. Every single day I get served the same unhealthy, inedible lunch. It is something I can no longer do, I will no longer sacrifice myself to clench my hunger and thirst with this nauseating, unsavory, unappetizing food. Yes breakfast is the most important meal of the day, but many of us do not get to eat breakfast because we are rushing to get to school. So why not fight for a better school lunch that all kids can enjoy and energize from?

That is why people work so hard to become educated and why education has always been the key to the American Dream, the force that erases arbitrary divisions of race and class and culture and unlocks every person's God-given potential” (goodreads.com). An education can change a person’s life and give them so many opportunities that weren’t there before.
The significance of education cannot be stated enough, which is an investment to a better future. Getting an education is one of the most powerful things a person can ever obtain. It is crucial to the overall development of the individual and the society as a whole. When individuals do not have the option of getting an education due to the cost of the schools as well as the lack of schools itself. For those living in poverty it can be difficult to earn the same amount of education as other people who are considered middle or high class.
An education can lead to a valuable set of skills. It did for Wes Moore, the author of The Other Wes Moore, Wes found another person with the exact same name as he and they both had different turning points in their life’s which resulted in one being in prison and the other writing a book about the whole thing. The author was motivated to do better even with his environment trying to tear him down. I can personally relate to this because I have begun to do the same with this semester of school.

Education is vital to one’s life and well-being, however since education isn’t free so many kids around the world can’t take advantage of it simply because of their economic status. When people become educated, it allows them to develop different perspectives and would not only see an improvement in their life, but in society as a whole.

Education should be free for everyone, regardless of their economic background, because every individual is important and should have the equal opportunity to better themselves.
