Doily Pilot • • • • School atfords many future opportunities M ost of us were thrilled when we got to finally go to kindergarten. The reality of actually going to school is a pretty important Uung in the lives o1 kids. All through elementary school, children enjoy putting on their colorful backpacks. doing ·coo1· proJects in class. playing on the monkey bars during recess, opening up those square plastic lunch boxes during lunch. haVJOg a aush on someone new every two days. or picking on some geek all the time. For some, it Is finger p&nt- mg, and for others, It Is sunply the fdet that a few hours of the day can be spent away from pdJ'ents. Nonetheless. for the ma1ority of kids, elementary school is fun. But as children make it into junior high school and then move on to high school, it all changes. "School's lame• lS what nearly every adolescent fer- vently believes. Why? WeU, I'll ad:rrut that some teachers talk to the board and make classes boring. and I'll adrrut that the whole thing about talung this or that in order to look good for colleges makes education during high MAILBAG Field trip to Estancia High will happen J ust so the Pilot's readers know the facts, I'd hke to address a response lo a letter pnnted on Feb 5 from Pat Courter (Mat.lbag -•Letter writer should sunply VlSJt Estancia"). On the same day that I received Pnndpal Tom Antal's letter lnvillng me to visit Estancia HJgh School. I called him and accepted hts invitation. Since tus letter was sent a couple days before the school's winter break, we agreed to meet after students returned m January. I've been away on busm tnps alm05t the entire month of January so lt's been tough to get over there I will defirutely be visiting the school soon.

Most people think like that Ask any student in high school. and he or she will tell you that most of the stuff that ls taught at school is either useless or of no interest to anyone. Kids will tell you that there's no point in gomg to school because ·1 already know what I want to do when I get out of school.· Well, I'll tell you what. School may be bonng and pointless, as some refer to it, but do you know what it's forl It's for exposure. Exposure to a vast amount of lnlonnation that can influence us and change our lives. I'm senous. W are taught Uungs at school so that we can get a glunpse of some of the tuft that IS out there m the •reaJ• world. Without the expo- sure to these Uungs. most peo- ple would have no clue as to what they wouJd want to do with thelr lives. Some kids go o far as to say that a real education is obtained ·only m the streets.· What are they talk.mg aboutl One goes to scbool m order to team thing , and it's your JOb to find out what you Wee about the stuff that you are bemg exposed to and to use that dS a gwdeUne for what you want to do later on tn your We. Going to school is dn adoles- cent's job dunng those crucial years of passage into adult- hood. Go to chool. learn and use what you learn. How hard lS that? I'm pretty fed up Wltll all the complauu.ng that IS around. For those teenagen who thlnk it's a burden to go to school and learn "usel balderdash.· why don't you Uunk about the people 10 many of the countnes of the world where people are never presented Wlth the opporturuty to go to school.

It's time we realize how lucky we are to be able to be exposed to Uungs that can shape us into what we tnve to become I'll admit that sometunes I feel that school is lame. But then I tart thinking, and I feel like lapping mysell. School might not be as fun as we want it to be. but I don't Uunk that means school's lame. The edu- cational syst m might be what rwns at. but I think we shouJd all have some considerabon. But for those who will always thlnk that school ts a waste of time, If you want to make school a lltUe bat less bor- ing and more fun. try to get the school district to pu.t some mon- key bars on your big school campus. and try to get yow school to tart a hngeT painbng class.
