Reactions to John Gatto's "Against School"
John Gatto brings up some important points in "against school: How public education Cripples our kids, and why"

John, (a former school teacher) Brings us some interesting points on his views of public education.
He talks about boredom, and how boredom is found among both students and teachers. Mr.Gatto brings up how he feels that Modern education places boundaries on the kids. That schools seem to reduce the creativity and individualism in the students. He helps with this quote,

"The obligation to amuse and instruct myself again, that if I was entirely my own, and people who didn't know that were childish people."

 He brings up different innovators and successful people like Lincoln, Jefferson, George Washington and Franklin. He talks about how these great people didn't achieve their success through a pubic school. At the end Gatto appears to have some hint of not completely hating  public schools. He recognizes that he doesn't fully understand what the problem is, so he has a hard time proposing what a solution could be.
