Schools need to churn out students who are excited about learning and ready to
thrive in the world as they meet it after high school. This means that students
should be proficient in: Microsoft Office (including Word, Excel, Powerpoint);
they should know how to write a business-appropriate email (no texting
abbreviations); when it is and is not appropriate to text; when to turn off
their phones; how to handle security breaches online (in the forms of sexual
pictures of self or friends, stolen identity, bad online reviews, etc.).
