Shouldn T Drop-Out Of School

In the article “The Case Against College”, Linda Lee expresses her feelings about college. The article discusses why Linda feels that her son and most other people are better off not going to college. Not everyone is meant to go to college, but college is beneficial for some. For some it may be a waste of money, when they could simply go to a trade school or immediately start a good job right out of high school. There are so many people who have to go to college like nurses, teachers, doctors, lawyers, and professors.

For most people, going to college and/or graduate school is a necessary evil in today’s society. Although college and graduate school can cost $100,000 or more, those who don’t have a degree may be put at a disadvantage when attempting to get a job. However, what good is your college degree if you can’t get a job in your field and you’re unable to make your minimum monthly payment?

Over 1.2 million kids drop out of high school in the United States alone. Students drop because they fall behind in school, get low grades, wasn’t getting along with teachers or students, or had to support their family. There are numerous reasons why students have to drop out and the numbers are quickly increasing each year. Students should be in school till they are 18 because it will give them a better chance of graduating, raise their income and learn basic life skills.

Another reason why a lot of students drop out of school is simply because they don't like it. High school, through its control over many decisions that are made for students, still seems to be restrictive. Many aspects of a student's life are pre-set and cannot be changed by the student to fit his needs. For example, a student's time schedule is set every year. Every student must go the same amount of hours every year. In most cases, school is from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. every day, whether he or she actually needs all the time or not. Students have to spend more time in some filler classes that they think they probably did not need to take but still had

Most people who drop out of high school have that kind of life. There are some who become successful and have their own businesses and make a good living. However, most people who drop out end up having to go back to school later in life because it gets too difficult to live comfortably especially if some have to support a family. In today's society, it is even tougher to make a living without having an education and people who drop out should think again because it only gets harder each and everyday. People today think they can take the easy way out by starting the real world early, but they quickly realize that it is a mistake because reality hits. Life is hard, especially without an education and it is a huge struggle to survive in this world today. Most people today who have to go through the struggle because of dropping out in high school wish that there was a reset button, but there is only one chance and that is why people should not drop out.

There is a lot of problems in the world, and people won’t do anything to solve these type of problems. Some of the problems are like pollution, population, not enough clean air, and many more. The one that focuses my mind more, and makes me more upset about is students my age, and older dropping out of high school. The reason this upsets me so much is because they don’t know how much they are affecting their life, and how much it’s going to hurt them in the future. I think this problem has become so huge in the United States that I am going to tell you how I would fix this problem, and why it is such a big problem.

Yes, while many successful people have dropped out of college, it is important to understand that by doing so they lost their backup plan. By dropping out you are leaving yourself vulnerable, to unemployment in the future, and more often than not you lose the chance to have your dream job in the future. However, there are cases where college is not right for you, so if you are going to drop out, make sure that you do not do it late. We all hear the stories about individuals dropping out a few years into college towards the end of the year, or close to graduation, and it's important to understand that this is the worst possible time to drop out. This is because more often than not, you will not be able to get a refund for your classes making you waste thousands of dollars, that is impossible to get back. This is because many

Most people grow up not wanting to go to school, that’s normal. Even though people might feel this way, still stay in school. If not, then jobs will be harder to get, and they won’t be that good of jobs. Either stay in school and maybe be a doctor, or better and/or dropout and work at McDonalds at minimum wage (“Minimum Wage.”). Working for just minimum wage can’t support a family very well. Think about it, around $7.00 an hour. That will not in most cases pay for a place to live, like people living in section 8 housing. Will not pay for food,

Many people drop out because they struggle to pay for their education. Erin Shankie wrote in her article, “At the forefront of reasons for college dropout is the cost—and not just the cost of tuition, but the costs of books, materials, transportation, and housing” (Shankie). Students drop out because it’s tough try to focus on school and pass classes when you have to worry about how to get to school, what are they going to eat for dinner, and trying to find a way to pay for living

I come from a school where the guys’ attire consists of bowties and khakis, and the girls dress up in a formal dress or skirt more often than not. There are more parent volunteers than imaginable and virtually the entire town comes out to support the football team on Friday nights. I have lived a sheltered life thus far… my parents are still together, no major deaths in the family, and if someone references drugs or teen pregnancy, I’m a deer in headlights. Even though I have partaken in an abundant lifestyle, I am continuously reminded that that is not the scenario for numerous other students in their community. My high school is a safe environment, chock-full of students and teachers who yearn to be there. However, there are clearly students

After more than twelve years of schooling why quit in high school? Your whole life has been built around school. You are so close to the finish line you can make it if you have gotten this far already. Think of all the other opportunities you can have with having a high school diploma. Many older adults who have dropped out of highschool and regret making that decision. You do not want to have that regret your whole life when it easily can be prevented by hard work and dedication until the end.

Dropping high school is a very bad idea and issue in our society because it causes the lack of job opportunities and low income along with poor health.

Do you know the difference between $250.00 a week and $130.00 a week? A college drop out is the correct answer. No one wants to make lower wages. However, in today’s society, people have many reasons why they drop out of college. Some people cannot afford college, some can not seem to make the grades, and lastly, others do not have the passion for college.

High school is hard. There are bullies, people who harass others. People who have disabilities try harder because they can't understand as well. Kids ask themselves every day: why am I in school maybe I should just drop out. These questions may feel like two sides of the same coin, but there are separate issues here: What are the legal requirements for attending school and dropping out? Even if you can drop out legally, what are the probable consequences? Every state has their own laws as to when a child may drop out. "For instance, several states allow students to leave school if they: have received their parents' written consent and have participated in an exit meeting with school officials are legally emancipated, or are attending high school part time and are either legally employed or enrolled in a private vocational school."

Before I told my parents I had decided to be a graphic designer, I did a little research on the job. It was good, but required lots experiences to get in a decent game company like Riot. But I did not stick with one job. I also heard of 3D modeling, programming and animation were good choices for me and I liked them too. I decided to go to City Tech College for four years education in Emerging Media major and I hoped I could get a job I like to do. According to the article “As Income Gap Widens, New York Grows Apart” written by James Parrott, college educated young workers’ earning has fallen 6% since 1990. And it’s false that those who pursue higher education and skills can get a higher economic reword. Everything is competitive now; the value of education does not count toward our future income earning. I realize that even if I graduated from the college there was higher chance I would not have a job or a job that I did not expect and paid very low. However, I do like what I do right now in my major class. I think if you did what you want and be happy with it, it doesn’t matter how low you get paid you still fulfill in your life.
