School has alot social connections to it. Since it is integrated it is easier for other people of other race to get to know something about one another. I feel that school is where most of our friends are which is one of the reasons why we have most of our eexperiences there. Like when we go on school trips and overnight trips, we are able to connect with eachother on a deeper connection due to the fact that we arent actually learning on these trips. We get to find out more and more things about each other. Gossip is another reason why school is the way it is and people connect to one another like they do. Everybody in school always wants to know the feed and whats the new topic in school. That is when gossip comes into part. Rumors get spread and thats how school becomes interesting because everybody wants to know whats going to happen next. Schools social connect is due toalot of experiences that we go through and the fact that we are all interested in trying to learn new people

I also wanted to learn why school is the thing that takes up most of our day. Out of 24 hours we are in school for 7 hours. Why? I feel like that that is wrong. Even though school is important and most of our friends are in our school, that doesnt mean we should have it for most of the day. How are we going to connect with people on the outside world when we are always trapped in school? I just feel like our personal lives should be taken into consideration more and not just some life that comes after all of this school. Us being in school this long is what makes people drop out and not finish. And on top of that school IS so early in the morning. Our brains cant take all that work from 4 different subjects everyday for 5 out of the 7 days days of the week.

School has its good aspecs and it definitely has its bad aspecs. Besides the way I feel about school I really look foward into learnig this school unit and being able to go deeper into it rather than having my mind only look through the broader lends of it.
