Command Joy by Creating an Urgency for Change

Picture
​We live in a world of constant change. From iphone updates to space exploration, we’re continually striving to evolve and renew. In addition, we live in a world of endless possibilities, we are more connected than ever before to new ideas, methodologies, ways of living and being. So why aren’t our schools evolving? Our public education system seems stuck in the past, instead of focusing on the real life, applicable skills, they are forced to spend their time on standardized tests, teaching things like geometry and algebra that only have real life application for a select few individuals as adults. What I have seen and experienced in my own public school experience is a generation of over stressed, over scheduled kids. From forcing our kids so hard to make straight A’s in subjects that they will never excel in, to over scheduling them with extra curriculum activities so that they can burn out and stress out, I think it is time for a change. As a community, I would like us to come together and start a movement that is needed to overhaul the current education system. It is time to start focusing on their strengths v. spending/wasting hours focusing on making A’s in classes that they are never going to excel in any way!
