It’s not novel to note the increasing numbers of college students battling significant mental-health challenges. Roughly one fifth of adolescents, ages 12 to 17, had a major depressive event in 2021, and that's up sharply over the last 10 years. And young adults in the 18- to 25-year old cohort weren’t far behind, as over 18% had a major depressive event.
Great post, Michael! Regarding the Lexington High School project. How is it possible that, "the school already has determined sustainability goals—yet the desired learning outcomes have not been decided"? Who is in charge there and what are they thinking?? And yet we still wonder why US education is floundering, and worse.
