I enjoyed watching waiting for superman it showed that we need more schools with excellent standards so that all students can receive a great education and achieve great things. This movie showed parents wanting to do more and give more to their children by putting them in a school lottery in a better neighborhood.
The panel at the end of the movie was I great truly enjoyed hearing my peers and other view points on the subject of education. Dr. Crocker posed a great question “Are we poor because were uneducated or are we uneducated because were poor?” That was a great question I believe we are both one thing I saw in the movie was these families did not have the money to move their kids to a better school district causing their child’s education to suffer and there are numerous families out there like that now uneducated because they are poor. Although there are some people that at the same time are poor because they are uneducated they may not have had a good education causing them to have hardship and poverty.
The same way Dr. Crocker asked us I ask you “Are we poor because were uneducated or are we uneducated because were poor?”
