Be observant!

In my opinion, it is definitely very important for students to be aware of the control the government has on their education, and also budget cuts on the school system. A real-life example is the extension on Spring Break. It won't be very nice if a student became oblivious to this too-good-to-be-true fact, right? Imagine waking up and rushing to school in morning just to discover that school is closed. By adding about 15 minutes to every school day, the school board can do away with 5 days of expenses. It's a win-win situation, more breaks for us and teachers, and the school board saves money. Here's another example, what if, and I mean what if, the government decides that all "A" students will have to take out the trash across Vancouver starting from after school till dinner time. Any hard-working "A" student oblivious to this new rule will be shocked to be submitted to this consequence after school. Any hard-working student who is wise enough to be aware of government control on their school system will make sure that their marks are no higher than a "B+". So, it is good to know the changes in our education and our school, just like how it is good to know what is going on around us in the world, that is, not be ignorant. Does it sometimes seem annoying when you want to converse about something and they give you the "confused" look?
