What Does Education Mean to Me? by Krislinn - October 2022 Scholarship Essay

I believe everyone deserves education. I think that school or college should be a safe, fun learning environment for everyone. Education is so important, and everyone deserves to learn. Most of what you learn in school is stuff you will use in the real world. You need to know how to add and subtract to pay bills, to budget, and to spend money. I think that going to college to further your education is a great idea and everyone should consider it. College is very expensive and tedious, but I think it’s a great investment. College is a great way to not only further your education, but also to get you ready for a possible career in the future.

Education for Pre-K to High school is so important. It’s free education. You need to take advantage of it. You can do online, public school, home school, or private school, which does cost. I think that wanting to learn and gaining real life experience is so, so important. Gaining real life experience and knowledge will only help you when you leave high school. You kind of get thrown into the real world and maybe not necessarily know exactly what you’re going to do but it’s a good start to help you figure it out.

Education should also be safe. I feel like precautions aren’t always taken when anything could happen at any time. School, colleges, and universities should be a learning environment, but also a fun environment. Learning should be a great experience for kids to learn new things and experience what they need for real life. We need to learn about taxes, budgeting, paying bills, and everything else we may need. Education should be important to yourself and parents. Parents need to be involved in your school activities as well.
