Many, many years ago, a book was published with the title "The Making of 2001: A Space Odyssey". In it, there was an essay by a high school student discussing the meaning of the movie. It is prefaced by a quote from Kubrick stating that it was the best discussion of the movie that he had ever read. I do not have ready access to the book, though I do own a copy. If you can wait a couple of weeks until I retrieve it, and are still interested, I will post the essay to the list.
