Education (My point of View)

In my perspective, education is the most important thing. There is nothing else better you can offer a child. It helps teach children a better life style and helps keep them off the street. I just started a internship at a elementary and it helped me realized how much help some kids need. According to this graph http://www.all4ed.org/files/GraduationRates_FactSheet.pdf 69% percent of seniors are graduating on time. Someone beetween the ages of 16 to 24 in a family with a low income is 7 times more likely to drop out then another student with a family that has a average income. I agree with what the demarcates promote because education should be the number one priority of this country.  We should get a new generation of teachers with better pay and help schools out with after school programs. That way will be able to keep kids off the street and raise our countries future.
