In "To Kill a Mockingbird," Scout decides that she will not attend school anymore. She has had a terrible first day, and she feels she will never learn anything of value there. Scout is now expected to behave differently, and to learn all the social rules that adults value. However, she does no see the purpose in this. Moreover, she cannot get along with Miss Caroline, her professor, who makes her feel guilty about being educated. Therefore, she tells Atticus that she feels education is unnecessary. Atticus tells her that it is the law that she should attend school, but he promises to keep reading to her to compensate.

Scout says he does not feel good about the Maycomb County school system and does not like it. Jem tells Scout that the older he gets, the better school he will have, and it was not until he got to sixth grade that he learned something of value. Egyptian period. Scout is looking forward to going to school because Dill left and her brother goes to school and there is nothing better to do.
