As much as I enjoyed reading about the money and success, I think I wanted to change my myth/topic back to my favorite thing to write about; Education.

Still separate, still unequal- This article was the first one that caught my attention. As I read the quotation underneath the title in the table of contents, I immediately was able to draw a connection. I was blessed to go to a very well off public high school. In fact, we were known through out the district as Cy Rich. With this being said, my mom works as an assistant principal within the same school district. During my junior year of high school, my mom received a new position within the district at a title one school. When I went there for the first time, I was surprised as to how different it looked compared to the schools I had personally attended. I think it was at this moment that I realized that even though Cypress Fairbanks claims to be an equal opportunity school district, there are some schools that are more advanced than others.

I just wanna be average- I was taken aback by this title when I first read it. I always viewed myself and peers as wanting to better ourselves through our education. If we didn’t, why were we paying all this money and being away from our families? As I read the quote from the article underneath the title, I was shocked as to how relatable this article was. It talked about how they were just set on a track and there was extreme emphasis on the bottom level. I was really intrigued by this because I want to know more about what this author has to say. I have always viewed education as a positive, not a negative.
