    Poorer residential areas in America are more likely to be located in the inner cities across the nation. Since most of the funding for schools comes from property taxes, those living in poor areas of the nation must also attend schools that lack the money and government funding that would otherwise help urban children receive an equal education as those who attend rural and suburban schools. The lack of money at these schools causes shortages on books, offered classes, extracurricular activities, and qualified teachers (2). The teachers may be new or lack the proper knowledge to teach. The teachers who are working in these school systems do not necessarily choose to work there, but may take what positions they can get because they have no other alternative. The problem with minorities in inner cities schools seems to be recycling itself. The parents of these children are products of the same system of education. They may not have seen any good come from their education when they were the same age. Therefore they are not showing great concern for their children to be educated in a system that…

    I started my career in the public sector, helping underprivileged communities as an intern in the INNFA (Instituto Nacional de la Niñez y la Familia/National Institute for Children and Families) organization, with the aims of protecting the rights of children and in seeking solutions to the problems of school dropout, child labor, child abuse and malnutrition in Ecuador. During my time in INNFA, I became a case manager upon completion of my bachelor degree in Psychology. However, in 1999 I moved to New York City and after a period of adjustment and some English language classes I began working in the private sector as a staff member for the Hudson Group. Learning that my degree was not valid in the U.S. and unable to practice my profession, I decided in 2005 to pursue my goal of serving lower income and underrepresented communities.…

    Cities have tried to better school districts themselves. After speaking with C.W. Whitaker, Trustee, Dallas County Schools Board Member and of Nova Academy, he portrayed to me that Dallas, like many other large metropolitan cites, often struggle to keep low preforming schools open and funded. When city funding is directed towards schools that preform better i.e. Schools in richer neighborhoods, it leaves the poor students behind. While there are programs implemented to try to help the individual students and teachers do the best they can in these circumstances, it’s just almost impossible to make structural change without equal…

    My goal is to open my dream elementary school in Khobar City. It will be different than normal schools here in Saudi Arabia. I want it to be the first school in Saudi where the kids can learn and have fun at the same time without any strict instructions or boring rules. Also, I want to change the learning pattern from its old-boring shape to a new one, which will meet the new generation’s needs and requirements. I will search to know about children’s problems in school, what they love and hate the most in school day and why they don’t like to come to school and so on. Then, I will come up with solutions to improve the quality of learning in Saudi Arabia. I will have a school where children don’t get bored and start to love learning rather than hate their schools.…
