school isnt fun, but is shouldnt be. It is there so our country can run. With out school WE still be in the dark age or middle age. No T.V. no video games. I did good at school but becasue i didnt skip i was able to get my militry intl job. School is there so people are able to thigs that you wouldnt be able to do without school.

LOL, Military Intelligence is an oxymoron!

Sorry, I was in the military and that joke hasn't died since I stared basic training, LOL.

Rock on, rock on! (Yeah, my horrible attempt to make a pun.

)
Just as rock on and everyone else here stated; you need school. There's no ifs, ands or buts about it. Were it not for school, we'd all be huddled in the dark, fighting over a candle, because it would be our only source of heat and energy. Over seventy percent of the population would be illiterate and nobody would know their asses from their elbows. "Hukt on Fonix wurkt 4 mee!!!"

I just thought of something that is a great example as to why an education is so important.
Some of you may not know this but in Egypt there is a city called Alixandria, named after Alixander the great. Any way Alixandria when built was the capital of information. Philosophis, Ideas, Math, Science, Culturle understanding, and even technology, and they kept all of this in a massive library. In fact one of the very first computers ever made was built there. And this is way back several hundred years before Christ was born. But then the Library was burned to the ground and no one knew how the fire was started. Some say it was an axident other say it was arsen. But the fact remaind that 99.79% of all the books, writing, scrolls, and ancient machines as well as everything was gone, lost for ever, and the sad fact is that will always be lost. After the fire nothing was the same. People became stupid and ignorant when before people scrambled and worked hard to be educated. Then the Dark Ages rolled in because of the void and lack of knawlage created by ignorance, stupidity, and superstition. The world was rulled by morons. It only took a few hundred years before (Complete and total sarcasom by the way) untill the renisonse rolled around before knolage started to come back. And even then these people were riticuled and some times even murdered by the morons incharge. For exaple the church. Anything they thought to be blasfumis, the person would be then killed for thinking differently. And even despite all of this and years upon years to come, human society still has not reclaimed all the information that was lost. Even to this day Humanity is still struggling
Well thats it in a nut shell. Of cores there is so much more to it but that is as simple as I can put it.
We need another Library like the one in ancient Alixandra, where people can come together in peace and share ideas and information with out people killing one another because of some one else's Belifes, Race, and Ethinicity.

One who gets nothing out of school is one who isn't trying hard enough to learn. Education is important. Granted, I used to skip classes alot when I was in high school; because I thought I was too smart for my high school. But, I've realized that just because I didn't "need" the classes, I DID need the grades! I regret every class I've skipped. I could've been in and out of college by now (instead of the crappy vocational school I attended a few years back).

Do you think people just get their jobs by simply applying?? Hellz no, they don't! They--just like myself--had to go to school, study and learn a trade. If you have no education, you can say goodbye to having a good job and hello to whoever's pulling up to the drive thru window.

Judging by your grammar, you're either too young to understand the importance of school, or you just haven't been applying yourself in school. You may think that school is un-neccessary now, but trust me, you'll catch on to what I'm saying. Let's just hope it's not too late.

Yeah i agree with scrouge, and Atomick! See if you dont go to school you cant learn and then you cant get a decent job to support yourself, and then one thing leads to another and thigs start to happen! lol that could happen and you would be stuck at Burger King you life! lol!

I personally love school!

Astaroth · Jan 31, 2008, 02:51 PM

Well...school has its ups and downs....
For example...i could not wait to get out of high school.......I was on a verge of having a mental break down almost......but then i realized that I had even more school ahead of me...you know the thing called....COLLEGE...and even after that since I want to get a Ph. D.
Yeah...it may seem that school is boring and there is no reason to go there....but when you see the same people in your class that had achieved bigger things than you..that is when it dawns on you that you might have been a bit too judgmental..and probably made a mistake when you were fooling around in class......

*P.R. Princess* · Jan 31, 2008, 03:55 PM

well the thing about kids doing all that stuff now a days is cause they are sorry and i say their parents dont know how to be a perent if they are letting them do that.
but school is supposed to teach you about one life and about things you need to succed in life.
And i learn alot everyday.

And if you say that you dont learn anything in school then you must not be paying attention.

and i do look forward to comeing home everyday but its caseu im tired. I dont like getting up at 6 everymorning but i do cause i know i should. and i need to learn.

Saionji · Jan 31, 2008, 05:02 PM

You go to school to get an education, some people can't even get that. Even in todays world there are many kids that are born into bad areas, and they can't go to school, be lucky you have school, and the chance to get an education.

Kairu · Jan 31, 2008, 06:47 PM

Although I am not a big fan of school in the long run I appreciate it.

I absolutely dread waking up at 6 to shower and get ready. Sit in an uncomfortable chair that does killer damage to my posture for 5-6 hours. Then to work my fingers to the bone. And to top it off homework.

Like I said though, in the long run it is all worth it. I take pride in my education and want to take advantage of the fact that it is offered to anyone. My body was not built for manual labor, it was made to use my mind which is what I plan to do XD

galganash · Jan 31, 2008, 07:37 PM

school is very usefull to us..
