Many people think that when you grow up in a town like Newark or Irvington, that you cannot become successful, because of things that may distract you in life. This may be true, but there are children who live in Newark who have been given a golden opportunity to attend a school that will allow you to have options and have a successful life. One of those children happens to be me. Not everyone is able to attend one of the best schools in the country. so I am grateful for this wonderful opportunity I've been given. As for my character Biron, who's also from Newark, he suffers because of the absence of his dad and because of the lack of opportunities that students are given who attend public schools. It makes me feel like so many more people deserve to have a successful life, and shouldn't have to deal with what happens In public schools everyday. Because Biron and others around him like Curtis and Borachio do not have this advantage, they will probably end in a bad situation, which is what parents fear the most about their children growing up in cities like Newark . In order for Newark's school system to make some kind of progress, so that everyone can receive the education they deserve, someone needs to speak up. So are you going to be that person, or are you going to be the one to allow things to get worse?
