Advantages of a Good Education

 

Education Advantages


Everyday, one may wake up, eat breakfast, and head to school, groggily walking through the doors to the next 7 hours of your routine life. Even with COVID-19 restrictions in the past, students still don’t want to return to school; thoughts I am personally guilty of. Education is a privilege that only 46% of the world has access to. That is less than half of the world. 

The minds of most common students revolve around schoolwork, friends, and sports. Many days they might not want to sit and listen to lengthy lectures, and continue on with that information at home in hourly homework assignments. But in other parts of the world, like the African country Ethiopia, the education remains less than satisfactory.  Lessons that are taught in most parts of North America are abundant unto students, adults, and children, and accessible on almost every platform imaginable. We take those lessons for granted. 

The U.S education system allows every person to become accustomed to their own way of learning to succeed and become the best version of themselves. This enables each student to study further in the subjects that interest them and later find high paying jobs for their families.

Sadly, the weak education system in other parts of the world does not allow the same opportunities that are available to us. Although school can be boring and tedious, students should learn to be more grateful for their education and opportunities provided.

Students Get Used to Our COVID-19 Rules By: Alina Prykazka This year at Bishop Foley Catholic High School students and teachers finally arrive back at school, but with new rules and challenges to face.

Surely, it must be difficult for staff and students to interact with each other with these masks covering their mouth and nose, while also maintaining a good 4-6 feet away from each person.  Sometimes change is difficult to adjust to. Some students and teachers say they have a hard time breathing in the masks, others work just fine with it. Some people have a hard time hearing others, when the other person is wearing a mask. You can not see their lip movements, which means you have to understand them only based on hearing. Of course, teachers Mrs. Cleghorn and Mrs. Petty have thought ahead ...

80’s, 90’s, & 00’s Movies Are Coming Back

  The best decades are officially coming back! The fashion, music, and even the fame of older celebrities in their prime. One of the biggest things that are helping these eras regain fame are the iconic movies made during these decades. Some movies that have been regaining popularity are Clueless (1995), Scream (1996), Heathers (1988), and the famous Harry Potter series. During quarantine, many people started to binge-watch these golden timed movies which helped them regain fame. There’s a theory about fashion and pop culture called “nostalgia pendulum.” This means that what’s old is new again every 20 to 30 years. The reason for this is that nostalgia boosts your mood and is associated with homesickness. It reminds you of the past and its’ feel good vibe. That’s why with every new decade, an old one regains fame . The romantic comedy Clueless, premiered in the summer of 1995, has definitely regained its fame over the past years.
