ONE- Schools are seperated into local school districts (there are over 14,000 in the US). They are funded mostly by state and local institutions, and get some money from the national level. What a school is like varies depending on what school district you look at, depending on how much money they have. Some schools are severely undefunded and don’t even have enough money for new textbooks, while others have enough money to buy whatever they want.
TWO- America is also known as, "the melting pot" of the world. The birth of our nations individuals was originally from other countries. Theseindividuals fled there home land in search of opportunity. Because of this we have created a nation full of diversity. One cannot classify a typical American under physical characteristics. The students who fill our classrooms come from all parts of the world. They range in age, knowledge, language, and ethnicity. 53% of students are white, 24% are Latino, 15% African American, 6% multiracial, and 5% Asian. But all have one intended goal, to achieve anything and everything they want, but because of diversity, they can't always do that. America is the land of the free but that doesn't mean that all people are treated equally. It's a shame things are like that, they need changing.
THREE- Most of our teachers are highly educated in their field and are looking to be further educated. But teaching by no means is easy mentally or physically and is not a very diverse job. 9 out of 10 are white, and 8 out of 10 are female. The percentage of teachers who are africn american is ever declining since the 1970’s. Teaching is a very important but highly stressful job, and 46% of new teaches leave within the first 5 years. So if you are looking to be a teacher, make shore it's what you really want to do.
