Going To School

Nowadays 80% of college students work at least a part time job while pursuing their studies. For some working while in school is a necessity, for others its simply a desire. No matter the reason there is an ongoing debate about whether or not students should hold a job while in school. Some say that we shouldn’t because it will affect our grades and the amount of focus we pay to our studies. Those in favor of working students say that it gives valuable real world experience and teaches money management. Both sides make valid points

When did getting up for school in the morning give you an illness? Kids and teens are not getting enough sleep for when they get up for school in the morning. There are a lot of negative aspects to waking up early in the morning for school such as teens or kids won't be able to focus in school, 70% of teens are not getting enough sleep, and teens and kids who wake up early in the morning are at risk of anxiety, obesity, and illness.

Is it possible to accomplish my goals and still meet everyday responsibilities? Working a full-time job, being a single parent, and going to college are emotionally draining. It’s stressful, frustrating, and hard to be positive at times when there are so many demands on time. Goals can be accomplished and still meet everyday responsibilities. Working, parenting, and going to school are tough.

When students are working and attending school part-time the results can be good or bad depending on his or her life situation. Should you work or should you go to school? Doing both can be possible if you just work around your schedule and give yourself time to do your school work and attend your classes. American Association of Universal Professors states that “Students are increasingly likely to work while in college. Not only are students more likely to work, but they are more likely to work a full-time job.”

It’s great being back to school. Although I’m not too fond of getting up early in the morning I do prefer to be busy with school than stay at home doing nothing the whole time. I’m a new student at College Park Middle School. I’m glad to say that I like being one of your students and I will be counting on you to teach me. I hope we can get along through this school year.

Attending elementary school is a period of time in which you are learning the basics of every subject that you will carry on throughout your whole life. You will be able to learn how to read, write, add, subtract, etc. Also, you are taught how to act and think like a normal person. The best thing about elementary school is that you have very little responsibilities and you don’t have to worry about college. I attended Fairview Elementary School from grades K-5. I remember each year like it was yesterday. For example, I remembered the way I looked, the friends I made, the events that occurred, and the problems I had.

The old saying “going to school is just waste”, which we all know that is just a myth. For a person to even think this is the only way to get employed, they are sadly mistaken. It true it might seem to be the only way for students to get part time job in an economy that doesn’t seem to get any better. Even if the company are

I just wanted to take a moment to address an issue that has come up a couple of times recently. If you have sent a student to me for any reason, and I send them back to class, it is because I have determined they are able to return at that time. If at any time their symptoms come back or get worse please feel free to send them back to the clinic. More importantly, I want you to know that I will never instruct a student to go back to class and tell their teacher to call their parent. That is definitely my job, and I would not expect you to interrupt your class time to make these calls. If you ever have any concerns please do not hesitate to see me.

Earning money while in high school is great because you do not have any bills to pay. All money earned goes directly to your use, good or bad. This is a big negative in a sense that an argument for high schoolers not working is because their money is spent on materialistic things such as expensive clothing, shoes, watches, electronics, etc. As spending the hard-earned money on such things will make them careless and reckless with their money growing into adulthood. Having a course in high school teaching kids with jobs about budgeting correctly, saving up, how much to save, and finding the difference between a need

A job could cause the students grades to drop by not having a good amount of time to study and do homework. The student could end up spending their money foolishly and not learning how to spend wisely and save money. By working the student could also have less time to be social with their own friends and family. Working may not allow them to explore extra after school activities such as sports, debate teams and so on. Working as a high school student may also instill the ideal that the student does not need to finish school, giving the mindset why sit in a class and have no money when I can go and work get paid and do what I want. With a student working and having their own money on a regular bases could possible open them up to fake friends who only have something to do with them due to them having money in turn getting used by a fake friend. A working student could possibly lose a lot of sleep due to having to do their homework at late night and last minute to keep their grades up.

It is a silent morning and I was getting ready for the school. I just woke up from the terrible dream I had. Totally bad to start off a school day like this. Walking down the dust wood stair. Then I grab some brown bread from the kitchen. I grab the glass cup in the sink and pour some milk. Now time to eat. I trying to eat as fast I can since I have a test today. I look up to the clock. It is 7:30, the school start at 8:05. Gotta to go, I thought. So I quickly rush to the front yard of my family’s house. Unlock the bike, and here we go.

Not only will students learn how to handle some responsibilities, but also helps the student on how to manage money. “Being a good student takes a lot of responsibility but if a student learns how to balance school studies/activities and a part-time job, that student will know the true meaning of responsibility” (Benefits of Working). Learning how to manage money is important when living in a world like this. Most parents force their children to get jobs only to because they want their kids to grow up as a responsible adult. “When a student starts earning their own money, they will gain a better understanding on how to handle it. Working hard for money will help a student appreciate important personal finance lessons such as the benefits of budgeting and the importance of saving and being frugal” (Benefits of Working). To most students work may not even seem to be that stressful, and they may be easily balancing their academics. But for other students work may seem more stressful.

In New Zealand, children are required, by law, to attend school from ages six to sixteen. In these ten compulsory years, children are crammed full of knowledge. Learning Mathematics, Sciences, Social Sciences, Languages, and Arts is a daily occurrence; a parent looking at this curriculum might think their child is receiving a well-rounded and varied education. But is school really preparing students for ‘real life?’

Even though most parents believe that it is beneficial for the teenager working a part-time job while they are attending to school. However, according to Etzioni 's essay, “Working at McDonald’s” the students become bad influence by working at fast food restaurants like McDonald, BK, Car Juniors, KFC. One of the disadvantages to working and study at the same time is that students couldn’t be attending to their classes regularly because the student after work can feel tired and without enough energy to do the school work. Another disadvantage could be a student who is working could experience high levels of stress. Also, working at part-time jobs, especially at fast food restaurants students are wasting their time because they would not get any beneficial skills that would help them in the future if they graduated from college. While most parents believe that it is beneficial for the teenager to work a part-time job, students eventually could drop out from school because students believe they would learn beneficial skills from working, it decreases student’s GPA, and students can experience high levels of stress.
