Education
It’s a problem at the forefront of many minds, particularly the minds of teachers, principals, and parents: How do we keep our kids in school? While the United States mandates education for children under eighteen, it is more difficult to ensure that young adults continue their studies. This is no trivial matter in a world that increasingly demands certificates, degrees, and experience in order to advance and, more generally, to lead a fulfilling life. By advising students, providing skills with real-life application, and personalizing higher education, we can best ensure these youths will move forward in life.
