Even though ideally Americans feel like we are all equal, that doesn't mean we have equal opportunities. This is very evident when it comes to education. Although not limited to it, most of our future careers and life experiences will be some sort of outcome of our education, and while it should be equally provided to everyone, it's not. With the upper-class, many wealthy parents can afford to send their children to private and boarding schools, and they can even afford to send them to study abroad or on educational trips. Even with public schools, the quality of resources and amount of teachers available differs depending on the area. Our school is a great example of a school that has ample resources for our students, but we have to realize that not even all of the schools right next to our area have some of the resources we have. In regards to the middle class, they can also typically afford to choose which area to move to in order to provide their child with a good school district,and they typically can afford private tutoring as well. This isn't the case with the lower class, however, as they don't have the luxury to always choose where they want to live or afford any extra help for their child's education. And city public schools are notorious for having lack of efficient resources, possibly affecting how students feel about school and education in general, and even for those who do wish to do well in school don't get an equal quality of education. This is in the long-run can greatly affect the outcomes of children coming from different classes. Although there are always exceptions, school's with more status tend to aid students while planning on which college to attend, while students from other schools may have to try even harder in order to stand out in a school that isn't as well-known. Paying for college tuition also prevents many from even the middle-class from attending their ideal college, even with the possibility of receiving scholarships (which ties back to having to work even harder to earn those), while the upper-class don't necessarily have to worry about scholarships and paying for tuition.
