Education is the enjoyment of lifelong learning. It is not rote learning to pass an exam 15 hours a day, every day in a bleak classroom of slogans. Teenage years are a time of excitement and adventure, creativity and challenge; a time in a person's life where he/she can learn more about relationships and enjoy family and friends. Furthermore students need time to "play"; to react and discuss and think about what they have learned. Time to internalize the learning of a broad and balanced curriculum is so lacking at present.
