Well it is more like that school has brainwashed us to think one way and has pushed our wonder and creativity as children down under layers of facts and repeatative work. We have all been told to think and do things one way for so many years that eventually it begins to wear down on our determination and effort. We have been conformed to meet the standards and expectations of the schools ideas of a "good" student. What the school thinks is a good student is someone who can regrudutate information, remember dates and times, and get perfect grades. No attention is payed to the brilliant students who have their own ideas, they are only criticized for not following status quo and are deemed less than those able to be the "good" students. Students are divided by age instead of ability into groups. This is a terrible system for organizing because people the same age could have completely different levels of thinking, and wouldn't it be better if there was a class full of student passionate and interested in the subject. But no we are all just expected to follow and block out our own ideas so we can all do what we are told.
