Obama’s Educational Plan
In Obama’s State Of Union speech he mentioned several components for his educational plan. One of the components he mentioned that ¾ of jobs require college education and that less than ½ of Americans don’t have college education. In the U. S., we have the highest high school drop-out rate, and we also have ½ of college student’s drop-out rate. I believe that the reason for students to drop out of high school and college is because for college students may not afford the college tuition and for high school many students need the one on one education from the teacher but not all students can receive that help. It is important to know that there have been a lot of teacher’s layoffs and it does’t help. What Obama has accomplished to improve the education crisis is that he has expanded early childhood education, make college affordable, and prevent more teacher layoffs. I think that it’s great that he is expanding early childhood education because that way my son will receive the education that he needs to be able to succeed in life and be able to pursue his dreams in future. One last promise that Obama made the U. S. that he will stop wasting so much money in Iraq and that he will have comprehensive health care for the U. S. I honestly believe that Obama will accomplish all of his goals in the best interest of the citizens in the U. S.
