Filed under: ESL Students' Writings — ytcaples @ 09:13

People often debate the value of formal education. Some believe leaving school and going to work before graduation has advantages. Others believe success will come from staying in school. How important do you think a high school education is in today’s society? Explain your answer.

  1. I think a high school’s education is the most important part of the life. Because it has the influence to chose my college and to rest of my life. I must stay in school until I finish my studies of high school. Most of companies in Asia countries choose new members in consideration of their scholarships. Therefore many Asian students study as hard as they can and try to go to ‘better’ university or university of their goal. So do I, for example, I want to go to BYU. I checked BYU’s homepage to see what I need to do to go to BYU. I have to do all of those things in high school. I think high school is the best part of the life and also the hardest part of the life. I’ll do my best in high school to achieve my life goals. My conclusion of the importance of the high school is this. Go to your school, do your best, and catch your dream.

  3. I think a high school education is most important in today’s society.
    Parctically, a high school education is getting be important in today’s society. Today’s high school education is not teach only study. They teach the career education like computer or engineering as well as studying.
    So you don’t need to leave the school to going to work. After you learn more professional technique that you want to work in the future in a high school education, you can get better job. My opinion is that you don’t have to study in your school. And if you really want to leave the school, you can leave however, a high school education help you to get your job and to work in your job. I think you want to study or you don’t want to study and you want to work, a high school education can help you ,anyway.

  4. yeah, high school is important of our life. at this part, we meet a lot of people, and make many friends. I think ‘school’ is education of social. it’s more important than study. and you know, study english like me.
    sometimes, I confused speak and use english, but the school helps me. in school, I usually use english, so I practice english more and more. so, I think elementary, middle, high school are all important of us.

  5. i think that the high school’s education is important, but it’s not most important. if you like to something, you can choose that you like…..
    but sucssess need to study hard. In China, the high school student don’t happy, don’t like high school’s life, because the Chinese education is look like machine….. so I think that you can choose you like….

  6. High school education is one of the most importan education that anybody can have. Because if you want to go to college and be someone important you have to study. And because now some high schools give the oportunity to the students to their studies before they go to college and if they don’t want to study college they have been studing what they want to do and the job that they want in a future.
    And most of the people say that high school is important because all the students have a young age, and i think that is the best age that we can have. And there are alot of students that study and work at the same time, because work is not someting that doesn’t let you study.

  8. THE HIGH SCHOOL I THINK HIGH SCHOOL IS THE BEST BECAUSE IN HIGH SCHOOL U MAKE MORE FRIENDS AND IT’S MORE FUNNY BECAUSE U GO OUT WITH UR FRIENDS AND GO PARTIES AND WHATEVER PLACE AND IS COOL BECAUSE THE TEACGERS ARE COOL WITH THE STUDENTS .
    AND I THINK THE HIGH SCHOOL IS EDUCATION AND A BIG STEP FOR UR LIFE BECAUSE AFTER HIGH SCHOOL IS COLLEGE OR UNIVERSITY AND HIGH SCHOOL IS THE LAST TIME BECAUSE IN THE COOLEGE JUST IS STUDY FOR GET A GOOD JOB AND A GOOD CARRER INUR LIFE SO HIGH SCHOOL IS THE BEST PART FOR US BECAUSE MIDDLE SCHOL AND ELEMENTARY SCHOOL THEY ARE GOOD BUT IS NOT FUNNY BECAUSE UR PARENTS ARE SO LOVELY WITH U AND THEY DOESN’T LIKE THAT HIS / HER KIDS GO OUT WITH UR FRIENDS SO HIGH SCHOOL IS THE BEST YEAR FOR US

  9. The high school is place where we can study and make friends. I have many good memorizes. So I think the high school is good environment not only improve knowledge but also express oneself. That’s mean we can express our abilities about music, sport, and many another things. Of course, after finishing high school we go on studying college and university to raise our knowledge for our work. So, high school is important step which we can’t pass over. It helped us have many learnings about society and life. It is a foundation to help us go on to step on our way. I just think so.

  10. Hi ! this is an excellent subject that you’ve choicen !
    high-school for me is a quite strange,unfamiliar and unusal place for me !
    I go to high school everyday and i ‘ve never skip my class .
    I believe that high school is a vital period time for all of the teenagers and their future.
    high school is the way that you must chice your career as an adult and you must decide for you future and use the opportunety that you may not have it in all you entirly life !
    high school student divided by to major part .
    the first part is the pupils who cares about themseleves and others and they want to drive as fast as they can and they attempt do to their best in their study process .
    But in the other hand there are some student who unhappily dosen’t care about who they are and what they do .It makes them that they never can be successful in thier life .I see them like vagrant people who just wants to speand thier time in school .

  12. in my view, high school is very important part in every person’s life..you can’t go to college if you’re not a high school graduate..and even if you’re a gradute it will be going to be hard for you to go to college if you’re not well prepared, i mean if you did not do very well in high school..assuming you can get a work even if you’re a high shool grad, chances to have a high salary are probably slim because they will not going to prioritize you..

    so all in all, high school education is a must!

  14. In today’s society, a high school education is very important because high school is one of the step to become successful, to be able to work in easier job and get more money then the people that not graduate from high school. High School teach us mostly everything we needed to use in our living life, and some just use high school to judge themselves that if the high school going easily so then they will stay in high school to continue their education, if it not so they just leave the school and go to work before graduation because they could not handle the hard work in high school.

  15. I think a high school education is really imporant in today’s society. You can’t go to a good college if you didn’t go to high school. Then you won’t get a good job.It is a foundation to help us go on to step on our way. High school is important step which we can’t pass over.High school is important because all the students have a young age, and it’s too hard for them to work.Even though I say a lot. But it’s still your own choose.

  16. In my opinion, High school is the most important foudation for all people. if someone get out of school too eary, it will be a disadvantage. Because y may get a job but it will not as a high position surely. Furthermore, You will dont have change for promotion in the company even you have a lot experiences. Together with that, your salary will not increase as much as you desired. And at that time, you will realize that education is important to you but it may be too late for you to start again. So, don’t get out of school if you disire to be at a high position in Society.

  17. Hello everyone,
    I graduated from university 6 years ago, I’m working in a good office. I only had lots of knowledge in the books and lessons from my teachers on the first day I left my university without much practise. But today, I think I have too much experience in my job. for along time working and making relatinship with everyone I have met, I find out that I make a lot of mistake, and I have to improve myself anytime. Now, I think that graduation frome school is very important, it gives you too much basic knowledge about every subjects , for exemple: history, maths, chemistry, biology, philosophy, etc… They will help you to decide what you should do with things you have never met before. Sometimes, you make a wrong decision. Of course, you can do it again better than people who leave school early. In many countries, a good company or office only employ people who has the Certificate from university or college. So there isn’t too much opportunity for you if you haven’t graduated. However, if you have a special skill when you were born, you can get the great result without going to university or college. I tell you some famous people like that: golfer Tiger Woods, artist Elvis Presley, the latest is the owner of Microsoft company, Bill Gate. But, there are a few people.
    Finally, I advise that you should go to school and study hardly, you’ll get a great result on your life.
    Good luck!

  18. High School can be the key of your life, because hight school you can learn a lot of things that you won’t find another place, hight school is the place that you can build you are future however most people can’t understand that wich is really sad , so my opinion is don’t give up untill you finish you are hight school. If you need to work you can work after school or Weekends. So i wanna calculate my lucture i hope a lot of people will take my opinion.
    Thanks and Good Luck

  19. Staying in school is the best choice you can make. Nowadays, every job out there requires at least to have a high school diploma. If there is two persons who are trying to apply to the same position and one of them does not have a high school diplome, the employer will choose the one who did finish school. If you really need the money, you could get a part time job in the afternoons. But do not drop out of high school. Do whatever it takes to finish and you will see it was really worth it.
