Having My Say



I saw a commercial for this movie about the American education system. I haven't been able to see it yet because it is not available yet on my Netflix, but it seems really interesting. Especially in Rockford, we have been hearing a lot about how bad the public school system is. Even though I am blessed to be able to get an amazing education, I cannot turn away from smart kids just like me that do not have the chance to get the right education. Something needs to be done. Every child deserves an education. It makes me so angry to see kids that are not able to reach their full academic potential because there is no money left in the economy. This is an expense that needs to be paid for. There has to be a better way to let every child get an education. This is the first generation where the children will have a worse education than the generation before them and it is so heartbreaking. I haven't done much research into the possible solutions to this problem, but somebody needs to think of one, and fast.
