Dead Poets Society

I am finding that Dead Poets Society is much different than Stand and Deliver. The Helton school for boys is completely different than Garfield High School. The surroundings, the environment and the teachers. The kids from Helton are all high society people where as the kids from Garfield are all low society kids. The kids at Garfield come from low income families and the kids from Helton come from high income families. Another difference is the teaching. At Helton all the teachers are very strict and expect a lot from the students, where as most of the teachers at Garfield didn't have high expectations for the students. Even though they are both very different, they are both very good schools. The teaching at Helton is very strict teaching, and there are a lot of rules to follow.

  2. I very much agree with you on both the schools. The Garfield school was low key, but the Helton school was very high key. The students from the Garfield school didn't care much about learning, until Mr. Escalante came to help. But the Helton school the professors are strict and keep the students focused on their studies.
    I agree that both school are very different but are very good schools for the students.
