Should Students Get Paid For Having Good Grades

Everyone does their job. Construction workers construct, teachers teach, and judges judge. Students learn. And if everyone works- whether it be in an office or in a school- why not pay students?

    Why do almost all students dread school? Though the answer may differ between different people, the main reason why most students dread school is because we have to go to school almost everyday and work, receiving no reward. There is nothing to look forward to in school and though the idea may sound absurd, students should get paid for good grades. School is work, it’s difficult and it takes up our entire day, filling the rest of our free time with homework or topics to study. If we got paid for doing good in school, then we would be encouraged to keep up the hard work and we would put more effort in school. Meaning that the next generation of adults would be well educated and would benefit society in many ways. Getting paid for good grades would also help us see the responsibility that comes with money. It would also help prepare us for life after school because we would know how to spend our money wisely, so in other words, students should get paid for good grades because school is work, we would be more encouraged to be diligent and we would learn the responsibility that comes with money.

For years, schools have devoted large amounts of time and money into sports programs for their students. According to several studies, it has been proven too much funding and effort is put into athletics, and not enough emphasis is placed on education. Therefore, in order for schools to improve their overall performance, sports should be eliminated to provide additional academic funds for the district, improve students’ test scores, and increase time in the day for studies to be completed.
