10. How does Scout describe the current education system? What metaphor does she use? What is the meaning and significance of this comparison?

Scout has trouble at school because she is so far ahead of everyone else. She reads, writes and interoperates information on a much higher level than her peers. Scout also sees her new teacher Miss. Caroline struggle with the realities of teaching in a rural school. Scout attempts to help her out with information about local history and family reputations but nothing seems to go right for her. To Scout, the system is unfair both socially and intellectually. Scout called school an "endless project that slowly evolved into a unit".
