The article Success of Immigrants’ Children Measured by SusanSaulny was about; the 2nd generation American immigrants are doing
better than foreign born Americans. Especially when it comes to education they
have really done exceptionally well. I
believe that Education is one of the great things that America has to offers.
To some foreign born the American educational system is incumbent part of a kids life, but to
others like an immigrant it’s a privilege, its part of the American dream to
have the opportunities to learn things that other wise wouldn't be made
available. To me parts of the American dreams are the great opportunities in
which we are presented and with the education in which we are given and the fact
that there are people who take it for granted is just ludicrous .Thinking of what Thomas Paine
says “What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly”, I believe the same goes
for the education in which we has Americans receive. The education we receive
is what it is, just an education but to someone else who doesn't have the same opportunities
that are given to us, it just might be the American dream. To have an American
education when I was a kid was a mere figment of my imagination but I believe that the
article is evidence that the American dream really is accomplishable.
