Against School

I feel after reading this story by Gatto, that there may be some problems with our schooling. Who knows for sure? This could be someone who has worked for the system for a really long time and is now tired of it and is picking it apart to make his leaving all the sweeter. Now with that said, I remember when I myself was going to high school and constantly felt bored, I couldn't wait to get out of class so I could have some fun. There were a couple of classes that were interesting to me but not enough to keep the bordem away.

Looking into this story for rhetoris, I found that there was a strong pathos influence with him stating the bordem as well as his own frustrations. Oh and don't forget his fellow teachers, they also had that same frustration. Its obvious that Gatto is the communicator, and the reader is the audience. The message of course is do we really need public schooling? I feel that we do but obviously like many things this is a hot debate. One thing I do know is, I would rather have an education, knowing what I know rather than the alternative which can be more deadly than obtaining an education.
