Reflect: What is the worth of the individual student in your classroom?

How can a worth be placed on an individual student or their education? I personally do not think its possible. I believe that each student has the potential to do great things, and by shortchanging them and setting a limit on the worth of an education, it shows that they have little support in doing their very best. If the goals are set high then more will be expected of the student and they will have to achieve more to succeed. This is precisely why I believe that teachers in any situation must do their best to provide an adequate and substantial education for each child that passes through their classroom. 

A child's education has no set worth. When it is all said and done the child will show what they have learned and how good of a job their teachers did in giving them the tools they need to succeed.
