Knowledge is a Gift

I don't believe we should omit anything from our past text books, but I do believe we should add any information that has been recently discovered. Not only do our youth of the today get to learn about our rich history that we have learned, but they also get to discover many other important facts that have been dug up. Now everyone has their opinion on what is relevant to our history, but that does not mean we should just start marking out whatever information we feel is irrelevant. I do believe teachers have the free will to teach what is relevant to them just as long as they meet the education standards set by law. If you are a student who has a teacher who does not always follow the book, you have the book and if you choose to enlighten yourself further, you also have the right to do so. Knowledge is everywhere and how you choose to attain it, it is all up to you to take the initiative and feed your mind.
