INTRODUCTION

As we can see, some students waste their opportunity to study. One article
entitled “Unveiling of the dark side of Education”. The status of one’s education with tell
what is the job fitted for him or her. Albert Einstein from the Answers.com said, “Try not
to be a person of success, but try to become a person of value”, because Yes, you could
succeed on everything of you want it, but are there any values and lessons learned in
the process? If you are a person of value the people around you will also see the value
of your existence and the success with the joy and peace you can bring. We can also
consider that those students who study well has an opportunity to study, as it is also
stated in the article “Unveiling the Dark Side of Education”. “Cutting classes obviously
decreases the need opportunities for them to learn. All the important lessons they need
to learn in order to become academically competent instead of learning, they are
ruining their lives with vices, for them, taking studying seriously may be hard. Ever since,
students who cut class has always been a problem of the teachers. But what could be
the reason of these students why they cut their classes? The researchers are going to
conduct a study focusing on the students. The researchers will make a survey and
interview to know the reasons of these students and to get the teachers and parents

teachers and parents resolve the problem of these students from cutting their classes.
