WHIP1 The film, The Lottery focuses on the different dynamics between Success Academy Charter schools and regular public schools, and how communities with a lack of high-quality education are affected. Success Academy Charter schools require that students be entered into a "lottery" in order to attend because "Success Academies are free, high-performing public charter schools serving scholars in Kindergarten through 7th grade." High learning results are expected from the students that attend. Charter schools differ from regular public schools by allowing their teachers the freedom of creative education; they go off of their own curriculum. In charter schools, teachers are judged by their performance, and can be let go solely due to their poor performance as an educator. In the US, 365,000 children are on waitlists for charter schools. During the 2013 State of the Union Address, President Obama stated that he's working on n education reform to make preschool available to all children in America. I believe this reform goes hand in hand with the demographic situation in America today, because it'll help even out education opportunities and common knowledge among the struggling young children.

President Obama's State of the Union Address was captivating, especially on the topics about education and job reforms. This speech made me feel even more that Obama is actually trying to accomplish reducing the country's debt, creating more jobs, protecting the middle class, attacking climate change, immigration reform, and bettering education for all. The segment that stood out to me the most was when Obama mentioned his proposal of a preschool education program that gives high-quality preschool available to all children in America. Also, President Obama wants Congress to help create more jobs by passing the rest of the American Jobs Act and enforcing the Fixit First program; along with other solutions.

Too funny!!!
