Do you ever think about what schools will be like in the future? Many

places for learning social skills. Teachers will guide students in learning
how to work together in getting along with each other. They will help
students with group projects both in and out of the classroom.

Volunteer work and working at local businesses will teach students

important life skills about the world they live in. This will help students
become an important part of their communities. Some experts say it
will take five years for changes to begin in schools. Some say it will take
