因此，公立学校是驱逐一个没有学到的孩子的正确的。因为孩子的学习不仅是事实，还是赚钱的基础，甚至是有用的职业。它更深了。孩子得知，周围文化中的某些事物值得保留。他的价值观与一些客观的人类企业融合在一起。因此，他本人成为传统传给他的一部分。他在一生中维持了自己的遗产，甚至对此进行了改善。他在乎。

And so he himself became a part of the tradition handed down to him; he maintained his heritage during his lifetime and even improved on it. He cared.)
