When it comes to education, one's socioeconomic status plays a big influence in their educational journey. Education is an area where the government cannot control equal opportunities because people will always be looking for the "best ways" for their children to learn. Even with public schools, living in richer areas will raise a students chances of going to college based on the facilities being offered.

I agree, there are a handful of educators who are poorly prepared. In order to teach the minds of tomorrow, teachers themselves have to learn about how to work in this multiculturalism world. They need to prepare there kids to be able to go off into the world and be successful in any given scenarios.

Students are always going to feel passionate no matter what. However, allowing them to express their feelings in class can be better than online. Schools are a safe space for children to explore who they are and who they want to become. With this idea of multiculturalism more students can feel accepted for who they are and what they want to explore.

Coming from a predominantly asian state, I have thankfully not be exposed to the horrors of racism in schools. However, many people from where I come from sorta dislike white people. Rather than praising them, if a white person is being disrespectful, people will be more mad at them because of their race and due to the things their past ancestors have done.

The "social norms" that many of us Westerns believe in are different from other parts of the world. For example, in Asian cultures it is important to respect those who are older than you. In the states, people do not see why that should be different as everyone should be taught the same. This is why children need to be introduced to these varying ideas so that they know how to react in a given situation.

I strongly believe the importance of a multicultural world. Especially in teaching, students should be taught of the world beyond them to one day work with those individuals. When I was working at a private school that prioritized a multicultural education, many f the kids were open to exploring new cultures and becoming friends with their new peers. The younger this is taught, the stronger of a base a child has to go ogg of when being exposed.

This statement is very strong as certain factors such as connections within group can really affect ones future. For example, with legacy students being admitted, they had a higher chance from when they were born to get into the schools their parents were once at. I feel like the main divider in this all is race and money which are two things we cannot get rid of.

I can understand how Horace Mann believed that education was the "great equalizer". It offered people an opportunity to learn how to read and go about given problems. However, I believe there should be a handful of equalizers that should be mentioned. For example, free access to housing could be something that people need. Many people need a house for proper sleep and shower to go on in their daily lives. There are more but I wonder what others believe it should be.

There is so much benefit to having one-on-one quality teaching for children. I can see how doing that with low-income children can shoot up their success. Would having a quality preschool be enough for these children or is more needed?

I can understand how this is an unsustainable practice. There is no endless supply of money and there is no way of stopping parents from funding their child's private tutoring. There is so much that the government has to sort through however, with time they need to come up with a solution fast.

Class is really defined by race. Despite being a country that brings together all different races to be one, there is still a handful of division. This is something that needs to be fixed as one child should be given the same opportunity as another.

The ability to have public school choice is an amazing opportunity for students to go beyond their districts capabilities. Especially with charter schools where they have specialized themes, children are able to study things that they love the most. I wonder why some school districts disagree with allowing students to have a choice.

Although many strides have been made to combat this issue, more still needs to be done. Non-white children as opposed to white children have shown greater dropouts and at some point it should be equal. At what point will we get there and how exactly should that be changed?

This part of the paragraph talks about how parents are seen to be the predictors of a child's success. This aspect is important to understand because parents push their children more and more to do their best in schools for themselves and the future generations. There are so many factors that goes into the success of children but for Americans, it is where they began.

The idea of bilingual education is very important as it goes beyond the typical American Dream education. Some students have english as their second education so allowing them to learn in their native language can be beneficial. One thing that Americans do is shame foreign individuals for having an accent. This leads them to treating those individuals badly even though they have all the smarts and more in their first language.

The American dream is not fair at all. There are many barriers that stop individuals from having an equal footing on the land they call home and it is saddening. Even with the public school education where it is free, depending on where someone lives, they are forced to have the given materials their county can afford. Having a good education can determine someone's likelihood of attending a college that pushes them up the ladder socioeconomic ladder so it is important that we do more to fix it.
