Our purpose is to give schools the help and recources they need in order to give children a brighter future. We need to be aware that children are not being taught to learn as much as they need to, but taught mostly facts. In today's modern age, jobs and careers need people who are critical thinkers who can collaborate and communicate with others and know how to figure things out. Most schools do not teach us these qualities needed in order to survive in the ever-changing world. We are instead taught to memorize facts and follow a strict schedule.
Schools are still in the old system needed for factories, and we aren’t at the age anymore.

Ironically, despite the United States having the second-best education system globally, it consistently scores lower than many other countries in benchmarks such as math and science. According to the Business Insider report in 2018, its education ranking was 38th in math scores and 24th in science. The United States' education rankings have been falling by international standards over the past three decades, as the government has decreased education funding by 3%. Still, other countries have increased their education funding.
