    Not every kid has equal access to internet or technology at home which is why keeping resources in schools is really important.

    Personally I found that being responsible for a textbook for a whole semester helped me as well because I knew I had to take care of it, not lose it, and return it in good condition at the end of the semester which helped me grow more personally responsible.

      A good point. It’s why I will always be a proponent of books and libraries. Everyone deserves access to the wealth of information we’ve discovered as a species.
