  7. Truth About Schools � Schools are not designed to educate you. (educate in the sense of the latin root of the word, which is edu-cere. Edu-cere means to draw out.) 7

  8. Truth About Schools � � Schools are designed to be tools. School is a tool THAT YOU USE TO DRAW OUT THAT WHICH WITHIN YOU. � � School is not the only tool you will need, but it is a essential one. 8

  9. Another Truth About School � You don’t go to school to get a good job. � A drug dealer could say I have job that pays well. � History teaches us that many people have done well with little traditional schooling. 9

  10. Real Talk About School � School is a tool that you are to use to allow you to be unlimited. � � School is a tool where you can PRACTICE THE MENTAL SKILLS YOU WILL NEED FOR ALL HIGH GOALS & ENDEAVORS YOU MAY WANT TO ACHIEVE IN LIFE. 10

  11. Real Talk About School � � Don’t be one of the ones who realize the importance of school when they’re grown with two kids. � � The older you get, doesn’t lessen the difficulty with attending to school. 11

  12. School Issues? � If you don't like whats going on at your school, practice manhood and do something about it . Don’t quit. Join student government or protest and rally until you get what you need. 12

  13. School Issues? � Boys on the path to manhood don't run from issues. � � Men do not stay victims. Men take action to change negative situations. Men are RESPONSIBLE for their own lives. 13

  14. School Issues? � Don’t let bad teachers ruin you opportunities. Its your life. You are in school for you. If you quit school right now, are you really ready to survive ‘legally’ in the real world? Take advantage of the opportunity! 14

  15. Group Work (or Individual Writing) Work with your group and discuss what you would like to see transformed at the school. � Then design a plan on how to make that transformation happen. 15
