      Outside the classroom

  According to a magazine, about 39% of the students who got perfect grades in school failed when they enter the real world. This is shocking news that  proves us the knowledge we learn from classroom is far not enough for students to succeed in the real world. Right now, more and more schools tend to have class in a museum, or use other kind of forms to teach students knowledge and experiences of life outside the classroom. Therefore, I disagree with the plan that Cheshire academy is going cancel all the field trips in order to save money.

  "Cheshire Academy is a college-preparatory school in Connecticut that challenges high school students in grades eight through twelve and PG to discover and hone their unique talents outside the classroom. " This is a description of Cheshire academy that I found on its home page. I believe that Cheshire academy would disobey its description if they cancel the all the filed trips. How would the students discover and hone their unique talents outside the classroom if they canceled all the field trip? I would really doubt the school and worry about my kids if I'm a parent of a student who goes to Cheshire academy. 

  Last year, when I was a sophomore of Cheshire academy, I went to a filed trip with my art class. We visited an art museum and saw all the fancy and created paintings. Although I had saw many famous paintings in art magazines and on the internet before, this was the first time I had all the real paintings in front of me. We were so close that I could feel the art's atmosphere is all around me. I'd never have this kind of feeling before, and I felt that all the famous artists and painters were standing right beside me and explain me what the meanings and stories behind their paintings were. I felt like I was nurturing by these artists and painters that my levels in art increased enormously. I would never learn and experience it in classroom by the lectures of the teachers. It was a pleasant time in the museum that I wish I could I have more chances like that. 

  I believe students would definitely gain a lot of  knowledge and experiences that they are not able to learn in the classroom. A filed trip is the best form of learning that can substitute a lecture in the classroom. All in all, I disagree with Cheshire academy's plan. Canceling field trips is neither a wise choose for students to learn, nor to save money.
