Academic Language Week 33 - American Students

American students are falling behind academically compared to students in other countries.DATA shows statiscically that we score way lower than other countries in math and science. Its pretty harsh to say but its true. One reason is, that in other countries Students of all ages and grades have to pay to go to school. So therefor students will take their education more seriously. COMPARED to America we get a free education. Another reason is,In some other countries they have higher technology. Also higher resources than we do. So if we had scources like other countries I think the RANGE of our test scores would increase. Additionally, Students in other countries are in school longer. It vary's some students are in school from 10-12 months. So students in other countries have a higher chance of getting higher test scores. In conclusion, American students are falling behind academically compared to students in other countries. If students in America would take their education a little more serious then maybe our test scores would increases. I know people are going to hate me for saying this but, if we stayed in school a little longer and studied harder then I think maybe we would do better.
