3,000 years? From the earliest civilizations, to Greece and Rome, to present day education has been around, and evolving. Education started off very basic, learning everyday tasks, all the way to military strategy.

“No More School: A Literary Analysis Essay on the Decline of Public Education” Every year in the United States there are many high schools students that do not graduate and receive a degree. The United States curriculum for students in public education has slowly declined, and continues to do so. Students are required to learn information that is confusing, useless, and boring. They are also learning how to be accepted into society, independence, and stepping beyond only thinking about themselves

The subject of religion in public schools is one that has been debated vigorously and passionately. The warriors from the Right and Left fail to appreciate the facts because they are caught up in the rhetoric and have difficulty viewing this emotional topic dispassionately (Haynes, 2011).

Honors English courses would introduce and expand concepts within the history, rhetoric, and cultural relatability of words, improving and deepening my study. Extensive, lively discussion and well-used time included in a class environment is one I don’t remember ever truly having and would specifically enjoy within a literary education.
