A '''student''' is one who "studies" or "learns" from a [[teacher]].
The word, like much of the [[English]] language, comes from [[Latin]], specifically, the second-declension [[verb]] "studere," or, "to pay painstaking attention to," or "zealously pursue." Thus the very word itself implies that a student ought to pay strict attention to his or her targeted subject.
As the face of American education changes, a student may be enrolled in a [[public school]], a [[private school]], or taught at home.
