The Importance
of the School Year
A new school year has just begun in private and public schools across the United States. This is a very significant time for the social and cultural life of every community. Parents, teachers and school principals must make every effort so that this be a productive year and that the students, with the help of good teachers, get the necessary academic knowledge that they need for their education.
It should be added that parents have a fundamental mission in the shaping of the children, teen-agers and youths in terms of what they might learn in school. Those parents, and all others who might have some influence over the students, must do a positive work so that children and youths be good students in their schools, and that they learn everything that they must learn in order to face their future lives with the resources that a good schooling provides. It is important that traffic regulations be observed on behalf of the safety of children and teen-agers who leave home to wait for their school buses or who walk to school.
Not only the teachers, school principals and parents who have their children enrolled there should see to it that the school year be good of society. And, why do we say not only? Because there are many adults who do not have children in school, who are not teachers, but who in one way or another have some influence in society. And this constitutes a civic duty for these individuals in the sense of exerting as much influence as they can, so that children, teen-agers, and youths learn as much as possible and become good citizens with the necessary academic education to be useful to society.
Every year, when classes start in public and privates schools we must consider the mission of the school and the job that all teachers must do as well as those individuals who have the moral obligation of making the school a sort of temple of culture, whose doors are closed to vices and irregularities that corrupt the young people.
