Read the excerpt from the speech. Answer the question that follows.
[6] By implementing these plans, we highlight both the pressing call for change in our education system and the stubborn resistance that often accompanies it. Can we afford to overlook our shared objective: to ensure that every student receives the education they need? Must we not rise above our disagreement and collaborate toward a brighter future for our children and communities? Failing to do so will only perpetuate the same problems and prevent us from seizing opportunities for our children's future.
