Valedictorian Speaks Out Against Schooling in Graduation Speech -- Signs of the Times News

Valedictorian Speaks Out Against Schooling in Graduation Speech -- Signs of the Times News: "http://www.sott.net/articles/show/212383-Valedictorian-Speaks-Out-Against-Schooling-in-Graduation-Speech"

I have never been an advocate of the U.S. school system. Only because I felt that most of what we learn we will not use in adult life. My problem has never been school was too hard, my problem was... "when am I ever going to use this in real life?" Though I see the need to have a degree in order to be taken seriously in a career, I feel that the education system in certain parts of out wonderful country is lacking when it comes to really rounding out the children they are teaching.

This high school student really broke it down in her valedictorian speech and I hope the powers that be are listening.
