Day 21: Mennonite Axiom

Mennonite Axiom:  We must raise the generation 100 years before it's born.  How does education play a role?

In my opinion, education plays a huge role.  Education tends to be a reflection on a community and shows what they view as important.  Most people would agree that a well-rounded education lays the foundation for a successful life.  We need to continue to ensure that every generation has access to quality education.

We need to decide as a society which skills/characteristics and traits we want people to have and we need to ensure that we are teaching these in our families and in our schools.  I am a firm believer that if we encourage/support well rounded, strong character and hard working people; we will find success individually and as a community.
