Read what Chomsky thinks what is the purpose of Education along with this

"There have been many measures taken to try to turn the educational
system towards more control, more indoctrination, more vocational
training, imposing a debt, which traps students and young people into
a life of conformity… That’s the exact opposite of [what]
traditionally comes out of The Enlightenment. And there’s a constant
struggle between those. In the colleges, in the schools, do you train
for passing tests, or do you train for creative inquiry?”

You have to keep reminding your government that you don't get your
rights from them; you give them permission to rule, only so long as
they follow the rules: laws and constitution.
