To the Kenyan families, school doesn't really matter because none of them are going on to college. Almost all of drop out of school and so, they're spending their time learning things that are important to them.

Summary

This quote highlights the perspective of Kenyan families who do not prioritize formal education, as they believe that most of their children will not have the opportunity to attend college. Consequently, many students drop out of school to focus on learning skills and knowledge that hold more significance in their lives and immediate realities. This suggests that the conventional educational system may not align with the needs and aspirations of these families in Kenya, emphasizing the importance of adopting more inclusive and relevant educational approaches in the country.
