    America’s gift to my generation is freedom because we have our very own rights,we have the benefit of a free education, and we have opportunities that most other countries don’t have. Rights are a necessity to our freedom because without them we aren’t considered free. If it weren’t for different types of rights such as, human rights, women rights, due process, speech, we wouldn’t have liberty. Human rights are one of the most important type of rights because they inherent to all human beings no matter your race, age, gender, etcetera. It actually states that everyone has the right to life, freedom, and safety.…

    America is a country that has been built on equal opportunities for everyone for centuries. All American citizensstrive for the same thing: the American Dream. America is a country where everyone has the right to an education and to strive for their own personal dreams and goals. College ties into the aspect of both ideas. In order to essentially acheive the American Dream, people go to college to further their education so they can choose a career they want. Success is difficult to obtain if you do not go to college and get a degree. Despite being a coutry focused on equality, not many Americans have the oppourtunity to go college and get the education they need to acheive their dream. Tuition fees can be expesive for many people and its only…

    Do you know when our national anthem first came to be the official anthem of the United States of America? The anthem was written by Francis Scott Key and became the official American anthem on March 3, 1931. America's gift to my generation is freedom of expression. Freedom of expression means we have the right to express our opinions in many ways. Currently, the professional football players of our nation seem to be using their freedom of expression to, in my opinion, disgrace our country's anthem.…

    Our educational system in America is highly inefficient. It focuses more on standardized testing than it does on helping the students understand the curriculum. I have seen teachers that care more about their paycheck than the well-being of their own students. On top of all this, once you're out of high school, there is college. Of course, it is not required for you to attend. But it's almost impossible to get a well paying job without a degree. To make matters worse, college is unbelievably expensive, making it nearly impossible to go without putting yourself in debt, because the average cost for tuition for a public college in America is $9,139. For example, my own mother almost didn’t pass high school, because her government teacher always put her down and how she was going to fail. My mom was never able to get a college level education because her parents could not afford to give her that privilege.…

    I was actually shocked to find that an education is not a right. Sure I am aware it is not covered in the American Constitution, but to see that it is not covered was quite a shock to me. We have children go to school and they are made to by law, but in the same manner we don’t guarantee them a education or even an adequate one or one labeled appropriate.…

    The United States has an extensive educational system that has been charged with accommodating the needs of an extensively diverse student population. U.S. educational institutions exist at all learning levels, from preschools for early childhood education to secondary education for youths, and post secondary education for both young and older adults. Education in the United States can be commended for the many goals it aspires to accomplish—promoting democracy, assimilation, nationalism, equality of opportunity, and personal development. However, because Americans have historically insisted that schools work toward these frequently conflicting goals, education has often found itself at the center of social conflict and the hot topic of political campaigns, mostly to no avail (Goldin and Katz, 2001). While schools are expected to achieve many social objectives, education in America is neither centrally administered nor supported directly by the federal government, unlike education in other industrialized countries. This system of decentralization has created a system of inequality in education that persists. The current system has created inequalities that have culminated into a generation of students that are not adequately prepared to meet the demands of a global workforce. Moreover, students in the current U.S. educational system are unmotivated and resistant to change due to irrelevant legislation and an overwhelmed system. The inequalities and inconsistencies have spawned many debates in the U.S. as the nation joins the global community (Goldin et.…

    One of the things that the UNited States prides itself in is it's diverse culture. America is seen as the 'land of the free' where everybody is accepted as equals and can accomplish the "American dream" if they put their minds to it. While this may be true on a large scale, if you narrow your line of scope to American schools you would probably see something a little different.…

Its amazing what some people would do when they realize their country is a failure when it comes to education.
