It means a movement away from intelligence. This is seen in white people too. It happens because the people don't value a booksmart

education and don't think it's practical for their lives when they could be getting a job or making money instantly. It's a lack of

foresight. I do value my education.

i think a lot of people devalue this today...maybe just a lack of foresight...i put this question up for a reason!! Lack of INVESTMENT

I value education and school. I like school a lot I just can't stand a lot of kids at the school. but I think now days school is really

taken for granted by people.

i agree...i had a couple years of school where i didn't care, but by the time i was a senior, i was into it...mainly cuz i couldn't wait to

get out!!

don't you find that apathy is pretty rampant at our school sometimes? it's a little sad..

I completely agree with not caring cause I didn't in 9th and 10th but now this year and last year I'm trying to make up for it

i hear ya...i had a rough junior year...i could have done so much more..i regret nothing about my college experience, but i was smart

enough to do much better in high school

the only thing i cared about was soccer and parties

i am so sorry but it is very annoying

yes exactly. and last year I realized how much I had messed up my gpa my two previous years that I really wanted to make up for it.

and now I'm just trying to keep my grades as high as I can so I don't have to worry about not being able to finally leave come June.

I luv soccor and partys

i value my education, even though i havent taken it seriouslly.. i wish i would have taken the extra time to do better in 9-11 grade. now

my slacking off is biting me right in the ass, and i need to work very hard to make up for my past mistakes, and make sure they arent

repeated this year.. so far its not looking very promising..

it means that being smart isn't cool. it happens because kids who arent booksmart make fun of kids who are smart of of envy or jealousy

i value my education somewhat, i probably should value it more

i think we all could do a better job...senior year breeds apathy...what can we do to fix this?
