Education is thought of as one of the most important things that contribute to the development of a person’s personality and cognitive excellence. The most important question that we as an individual have to answer is whether we want to opt for a school that is based in an urban vicinity or the one that is based in the rural one. The importance of education varies from people to people. There are people in the world who think they cannot pull anything off if they do not have sufficient education. While on the other hand, there are people who think that education is an important part of life but life still goes on if we do not have a very prestigious degree.
The American myth insists that education is the path that helps urban people to get the status of the middle class. The book, Finding a New Perspective For Urban Education In America (ISBN 978-1951630072), however, claims that the level of education received by urban students in public school is insufficient to make competitive with middle and upper-class income peers. The mathematics class in high poverty schools is twice as in public schools for urban students. Similarly for science classes at high poverty high school is three times more than the classes taken place in low-poverty high school.
There are better job and internship opportunities for you when you study in an urban school because of the big conglomerates and respectable businesses run their operation in the city offices. There is also a chance that you will get to do both the things simultaneously and be able to graduate in a better position and stable financial conditions.The students that come in from far and wide and rural areas and get e n rolled in the urban schools, provide the school premises with an amazing diversity that also helps us adjust to the norms and get comfortable. The student bodies that are selected or elected are then eventually diverse too.
Moreover, we have witnessed even teachers having different opinions on the importance of education and real conflict occurs when these different opinions on education collide. In an educational institution, there are a lot of key role-players and it becomes very important sometimes that they be on the same page as to what education means to them and what it should be.
Administrators, teachers, students and the parents of those students, they all play an important role as to what a child’s education should be like and what they need to do in order to achieve it.It is one of the oldest reasons in the history of education and it claims that people need to get an education in order to get by in life when it comes to basic things such as read, write, speak, sign, mathematics, etc.
