I love the idea presented in this video from Khan Academy. If only our students believed it!? What happens between the time a curious, excited pre-kindergarten student enters school and the time a burned out, apathetic high school student leaves school? How can we make things better?

How to make things better? It's all about application to the students' lives and their desires for their futures. How can they be mentored and supported to bring their unique gifts to the world. What skills, knowledge, socialization, and experience do they need to impact our society so that they are getting paid a significant amount as quickly as they can prove they are able and are producing what we need. And that they are balancing this with a deeper connection to what they find holy and sacred in their lives.
