Crime,sex, and drugs. Three words that describe the public school system. Most parents are forced to place their children in public schools my experience in Clarke County School District would be considerd heaven to some people. Even though I have had my share of bad teacher and nasty lunches my overall time there was ok. However there are some students who can not say the same. Like the students who witnessed the calubining or the students who were sexually harrassed by their teachers. I consisder myself lucky.
The public school system is a very touchy subject for me. That is one of the reason why this paper is so important to me. I have such big passion for higher learning that the system makes me want to step in and change some things for myself and the generations to come. I may not have all the answers,but the ones I do have will be expressed thoroughly in this paper.

My Life
A wife, daughter, granddaughter, and a friend. These are just a few titles that apply to me. My faith and family means the most in my life. Growing up without my mother being around has made me a very strong person. Not allowing men to control my every thought and move has not been something I can tolerate .A strong black woman is what I am and will forever be.
Married at the age of 18 is what I chose for my life. Not just because I wanted to flee fornication, but because I was in love with the man who loved me just as much as I did him. However now that I have gotten a taste of the real world paying bills and not having daddy there to take care of me ,has not been the fantasy I had envisioned. I never thought being all those things a wife, daughter,granddaughter,and a friend and still doing me .would ever be so hard. Nevertheless I love my life and would not trade it for anyone else’s
