The Day Dream by Courtney

The Day Dream by Courtney - October 2014 Scholarship Essay

Ah! The ideal classroom, it kind of seems far, far out of reach. It would be amazing if everyone came to class ready to learn and to participate, that would be the ideal classroom. The best way to be successful is to surround yourself with people who will make you better, not worse. If everyone wanted to learn and wanted to further their knowledge to make themselves better, this would the ideal classroom.

If everyone wanted to do these things, it would help me tremendously. Sometimes I see others who aren’t motivated and I just go with the flow of them. But if everyone wanted to participate and learn, it wouldn’t make me feel so alone. Most kids in my generation take our education for granted. Most don’t appreciate what we have, yet a kid in another country just wishes that he or she could go to school. I want to help make that possible for other kids and having the ideal classroom would make this task that much easier. I only wish that this could happen because it seems so far out of reach. Maybe one day this will happen and everyone everywhere will be able to learn and grow with one another.
