Education

     I do think that Ralph's theory about basically having to dumb down the schools system is true. "Appetite and indolence they have, but no enthusiasm." The school has a system called the no child left behind policy which is basically what Ralph talks about. This holds back the thriving to help the dragging, and yes, sometimes it isn't because the student doesn't want to learn, but because they have a disability, but none the less that isn't true for all. How can the students that want to learn and thrive do that when there is a policy that in class they can't because their neighbor is incapable?

     Ralph Walden's critisizing but understanding tones helps to further explain the importance of supporting a student's ambitions, while at the same time keeping them on the right track.
