Graduating High School

In his speech, “Remarks by the President in a National Address to America’s Schoolchildren,” Obama effectively argues his claim, that kids should go to school and try very hard to succeed to schoolchildren around the U.S. He effectively argues his claim because he uses supporting details and stories of students that have undergone tough situations, but still overcame those obstacles to succeed and school. Also, he is trying to tell kids that they should do well in school to get a good job and make a difference. He also uses rhetorical appeals to help with the supporting details. One of supporting evidence that he brought up was that if someone wants to become something such as a doctor, or lawyer you will need a good education to do

We are told to “go to college” by family, media, and teachers, but we are never given an explanation on why it’s important for us to get a higher education. The importance of higher education is so we can obtain a career that can support our needs and wants. It’s also important because it gives you an advantage when trying to get a job. Employers require a higher form of education, which is necessary for our society to advance. There aren’t many jobs that accept people with a high school diploma as their highest form of education. Employers want people that know what they’re doing, and so does our society. In order for people to go into the career field they want, they need to go to college to learn everything that comes with that career.

Also with being in my teacher's class, I was very shy and wouldn't really talk with anyone. So figuring out why she would pick me to talk to a large crowd of people totally shocked me.

Imagine it’s your eighth grade, year.  Time is flying, tick-tock, tick-tock.  You’re getting closer to that one thing you’ve been waiting to achieve, since the day you started middle school.  It’s coming down to the wire and there’s only one week left before this event arrives.  You’re feeling confident, however you ask yourself,”Do I deserve to graduate?”  Bang, there goes all of your confidence, down the drain.  This is what many eighth graders worry about during their last few months of school.  Throughout the duration of my eighth grade, I’ve accomplished many goals and have grown into a more mature person.

The author wrote about the number of dropouts from the university because they feel that school is not the appropriate place for them to learn the knowledge and life. They just want to work with your hands, and learn a skill by itself after high school. By contrast, Obama wants every student has the opportunity to attend college to obtain higher wages later. Obama told Congress, "We expect our children not only to graduate from high school, but graduating from college and have a good paying job." (Los AnglesTimes). After reading the article, there is the big question in my mind is: Is there a
