It's Back-To-School Time for most students. Hashtag #WhereIsThisEducationTakingMe is my current hosted social theme (8/22-9/22).
Local governments and communities, of the U.S., are debating the pros and cons of the public-school and college-brand models (private and state colleges). In my opinion, all school models should have adequate heating and cooling. Not every old-school building has proper insulation. This means that we have school-buildings that are more challenging to heat and cool: more expensive to keep open than building energy-efficient schools. There is also the issue of the decline of young families in our local communities. Millennials aren't producing large families like many of us grew up in. I guess the decline is mainly due to familiarity of such experiences. Experiences that many would say was a little dysfunctional growing up in such a big household.
"Is the charter-school model more productive than the public-school?"
"Which school model should receive most local funding?"
I have heard non-traditional college students (those who work and are more mature with family responsibilities) comment, "I am returning back to school because I need money to pay my current bills. I know that I can receive a student loan whereas other loans are more challenging to get."
The nation is searching for solutions to the student-debt crises related to attending college. It is important that students realize that college isn't for everyone. If you are not seeking a professional career, why have a financial burden of college expenses? If one was to compare loan obligations, overall, it would actually be cheaper to take out a personal loan and interest than student loan with deferring interest.
Are both education systems becoming obsolete, in the current economy? If so how so? If given the opportunity, how would you improve public schools? colleges?
